Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Florida
National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL
335 AM EDT Thu May 2 2024

.DISCUSSION...
Area of high pressure continues to dominate weather conditions over
fire districts through the period. Fairly low chances for showers
and isolated storms in the afternoon/evening today and Friday,
mainly over interior locations. This should be led by the sea breeze,
which would determine how far inland showers develop. Minimum
humidities should remain above critical levels today, on Friday could
get near 35 percent in central portions of the state. Easterly winds
prevail become onshore by the afternoon through Friday before
shifting from the south during the weekend. This is as a disturbance
moves over northern Florida. Rain chances increase into early next
week with no other concerns during this time.

Fog potential...No significant fog is expected over the next few
days.
