Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL
922 PM EDT MON OCT 3 2016
.EVENING UPDATE...
Widespread stratiform rain continues in the wake of todays
thunderstorms. Occasional rumbles of thunder will accompany this
activity, which should gradually diminish through around midnight.
Thereafter, expect cloudy conditions to persist into early Tuesday
morning. Patchy fog and low clouds may develop overnight given
some areas received substantial rainfall earlier today. Aside from
a few tweaks to PoPs to account for ongoing showers and storms,
the forecast looks to be on track into Tuesday.
&&
.AVIATION (00z TAFs)...
Messy aviation forecast expected with ongoing SHRA/TSRA for many
terminals. Expect this will gradually diminish overnight with VFR
conditions returning 04z through at least 16z Tues. Some patchy
fog/stratus may occur where heavier rains have fallen, but
confidence is too low to mention in this issuance. Sct TSRA to
develop again by 18z Tues, becoming more widespread through 00z
Wed.

.MARINE...
High pressure north of the waters will maintain east to northeast
winds over the next couple of days, with scattered to numerous
thunderstorms. As Hurricane Matthew gradually nears the region by
mid week, winds will increase dramatically with periods of
advisory level winds and seas possible from Wednesday night
through Friday. This will largely depend on Matthew's path across
the western Atlantic and all marine interests should closely
monitor the situation. From the weekend into early next week,
Matthew is forecast to shift northeastward as a cold front moves
through the region. This will bring about a northwesterly wind
shift and improving marine conditions.
