National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL

...New UPDATE...

.UPDATE...
Issued at 819 PM EDT Wed Jun 12 2024

Most of the convection has seamer down across the CWA with only a
few storms left over the interior. This trend should continue over
the next few hours, but model guidance bring back showers and
storms overnight and into the early morning hours. Then, chances
continue to increase throughout the day with showers moving across
on/off with a few breaks in between. An additional 2-3 inches of
rain is anticipated on Thursday, especially in portions SWFL. In
terms of temperatures, it should be similar to today with upper
80s south and low to mid 90s elsewhere.

A few adjustments to the POPs were made, otherwise, the forecast
remains on track.

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 722 PM EDT Wed Jun 12 2024

A difficult forecast with lots of uncertainty around the timing
and reformation of showers and storms across terminals. Most of
the convection is now inland and south with only a few storms
developing along weak outflow boundaries, which should dissipate
over the next few hours. Some activity is expected to develop
later tonight and into the early morning hours of Thursday,
perhaps continuing on and off through the day. Intermittent MVFR
to IFR conditions are anticipated during this time.
