Drier air moves in above the Suncoast today as sunshine returns. Rain has come to an end, for now. With the exception of one brief rain chance Friday evening, the next 7 days look to be rain-free and cool with lots of sunshine

Yesterday’s front is stalled to our south and moisture is converging in a plume aloft. What is needed to produce rain over the state is rising air. That ingredient will be provided today courtesy of an upper-level low spinning out of Texas and heading for Florida

A weak cold front sinking past the area and stalling south of us will bring unsettled and slightly cooler weather to the Suncoast Tuesday and Wednesday. Tuesday morning will start off mild with a slight chance of sprinkles or brief light rain

After a weekend characterized by cold mornings and chilly afternoons, a warm-up today will return us to average or even above-average high temperatures.

The Severe Storm Prediction Center places the Suncoast at a low risk for strong to severe storms this evening. It’s a cautionary alert due to a shifting wind out of the south that will bring a surge of humidity to the Suncoast late in the day, just as a cold front approaches our coastline

A series of cold fronts will bring cool temperatures to the Suncoast for the weekend and into next week.

High pressure dominates the weather this week and will direct our weather out of a generally north direction. Additionally, another shot of dry air will surge into the area today.

The Suncoast remains sandwiched between a high-pressure ridge in the Atlantic and a storm system moving to the Ohio Valley.

Over the next few days our shifting winds will increase humidity and daytime high temperatures. Even today our temperatures will run a degree or two warmer than yesterday

The above normal temperatures will continue this week with the New Years Day high temperature closer to the record than the average.

An expanding area of high pressure will direct winds out of the northeast to east and finally southeast by New Years Eve. The easterly, but shifting winds keep us in a warming trend that boosts high temperatures into the mid 70′s

Winds are in the process of shifting and that spells a change in the weather when you live in Florida. For us, the shift in a north wind to an east wind signals a warm-up by the weekend

Temperatures stay flat today as a northwest wind over the Gulf waters draws in cooler air, which will work against any daytime heating. Daytime high temperatures will only be a few degrees warmer than morning lows.

A plume of warm and unstable air in Gulf waters will colocate with upper air energy and atmospheric spin to create an environment supportive of the strongest kind of thunderstorms, called supercells

High pressure will build back into the area today to bring us a rather typical December day. We get a brief return to near normal temperatures and lower humidity with dry skies and more sun

The first of several fronts will move past the Suncoast today with only marginal chances for producing weather. Falling mostly as rain with only small changes for a thunderstorm, the precipitation will likely fall in the late morning or early afternoon

Cold night and cool days before a warming wind take us back to the mid 70's by the weekend.

The overnight rain showers will come to an end as cooler air filters into the Suncoast. As the front that produced the showers sinks south our skies will clear and sunshine will return

Humidity will rise and shower chances will go up over the next 36 hours.

Today the area of cooler high pressure, that built behind this week’s cold front, will begin to move into the Atlantic.

Very dry air has moved into the Suncoast and will provide several days of sunny and low humidity afternoons for the area.

Moisture will be sufficient to produce some patchy morning fog. As the fog lifts, partly cloudy skies will linger before giving way to mostly to partly sunny skies

We have begun the process of a weather change on the Suncoast with a northeast to east wind transporting Atlantic moisture across the state

The gusty northeast wind will continue today as dry and somewhat cool air, however still above average, continues to filter into the Suncoast. Thursday temperatures will be similar to Wednesday with perhaps warmer morning and afternoon temperatures by a degree or two

Cooler air continues to filer into the area today as high pressure expands across the south and Florida

The cold front that passed by yesterday is now in South Florid and our north wind is bring in dry and cooler air. Our morning temperatures came in about 5 to 10 degrees cooler than 24 hours ago

Monday afternoon a cold front will move past the Suncoast and winds will pick up. The northerly wind will draw down some cooler and drier air and remove any chance for rain for the next seven days

As Eta merges with a cool front and becomes an extra-tropical blend of tropical and non-tropical characteristics, it will drag a weak cool front across Florida

The forecast is now for more sunshine and dry weather as we get to close the chapter on Eta.

Eta is smaller storm but growing
