National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL
757 PM EDT Fri Apr 3 2020

.UPDATE...
GOES satellite is showing widespread cirrus clouds streaming
southeast into the Florida Peninsula early this evening, with
quiet weather conditions expected to hold overnight. The forecast
looks on track with seasonable overnight temperatures warming up
to slightly above normal temperatures by Saturday afternoon. No
significant changes are planned for the evening update.

&&

.AVIATION...
VFR conditions will generally hold through the next 24 hours. The
possible exception will be smoke from a fire on the south side of
RSW, which could reduce visibilities as winds go calm overnight.

&&

.MARINE...
Winds will remain around 10 knots or less through the weekend as
high pressure builds in northeast of Florida, with winds turning
onshore near the coast each afternoon with the sea breeze.
Increased moisture will allow for a slight chance of showers or a
few storms over the waters on Sunday. Easterly to southerly winds
will run around 10-15 knots during the first half of next week,
turning onshore with the afternoon sea breeze.
