AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAMPA BAY RUSKIN FL
800 PM EDT SAT OCT 8 2011

.UPDATE...PLENTY OF RAIN ACROSS THE AREA TODAY AS WEAK LOW PRESSURE
IS NOW DEVELOPING JUST TO OUR SOUTH...AND HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS TO
THE NORTH OF THE CWA. INCREASED PRESSURE GRADIENTS BETWEEN THESE TWO
SYSTEMS WILL CONTINUE TO KEEP GUSTY WINDS THROUGH THE EVENING
HOURS...AND WILL LIKELY RELAX SOME OVERNIGHT. BUT EXPECT MORE
PERIODS OF BREEZY AND GUSTY CONDITIONS ON SUNDAY...ALONG WITH
NUMEROUS SHOWERS.

WIND GUSTS HAVE BEEN REACHING THE 30 MPH RANGE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON
HOURS...WITH SOME PEAK WINDS NEAR 40 MPH. THEN A LARGE CANOPY OF
LOW/MID LEVEL CLOUDS COVERED THE ENTIRE TAMPA BAY AREA AND MUCH OF
THE CENTRAL/SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA KEEPING LIGHT TO MODERATE
RAIN LINGERING THROUGH THE LATE EVENING HOURS. THERE HAS BEEN VERY
LITTLE LIGHTNING WITH THIS EVENT...AND ANY SIGNIFICANT LIGHTNING
THAT DEVELOPS WILL LIKELY HAPPEN OVER THE COASTAL WATERS WHERE BL
INSTABILITY MAY PROVIDE ENOUGH ENERGY FOR DEEPER CONVECTION
TONIGHT.
