Area forecast discussion, Jul 31, 8:35 PM EDT, 1 hour 14 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL
835 PM EDT SUN JUL 31 2016

.SHORT TERM (rest of tonight)...
Aloft - a ridge across northern Fl shifts northward slightly
overnight as an inverted trough traverses southern FL. At the
surface atlantic high pressure ridging in across central Fl eases
into north-central FL early MON. The drier air indicated on the
TBW sounding this morning has eroded away with a PWAT value over
2 inches this evening...although the sounding may have sampled
too many near by storms. In any case robust storms continue
to form...push toward the gulf...then trend down. Initially these
were across southwest FL but have transitioned to the Tampa Bay
counties and to a more limited extent the Nature Coast. Forecasts
generally on track with convection ending bu midnight but have
made adjustments to bettered reflect the current coverage.

&&

.AVIATION...
01/00Z-02/00Z. Line of SHRA/TSRA formed a bit earlier today and
is pushing west. Line pretty much passed TPA/PIE/LAL but has since
re-formed just to the east and may support some tempo TSRA next
hour or so. TSRA over the terminals from SRQ south have been winding
down with tempo MVFR and gusts TIL 01Z then VCTS TIL 04Z. VFR over
night with BKN mid clouds and light winds. For Mon anticipate VCTS
starting 18Z- 20Z.

&&

.MARINE...
Broad high pressure ridges across central FL tonight then begins
to ease north early MON...with prevailing southeast of east winds
after the sea breeze collapses later this evening. Speeds will
stay mainly light with the main concern thunderstorms drifting off
the coast and out over the gulf then trend down.
