We will talk about that. Scattered storms across the area right now. The main sail is pointing in that right direction from anna maria island, you can see the dark clouds out there. There they a moving away from a couple of isolated showers and storms this afternoon and this evening. And i think tomorrow coverage will be slight too. Only 20 to 30 of the ea picks up the opportunity for an isolated storm. Look at the heat. It is still cranking out there. The end of august and were talking about temperatures in the mid to upper 90s. 94 in tampa. 93 lakeland. 93 in n. Were at the high for the day so far. 93 clearwater. A little cooler with sthatea breeze in st. Pete. 87 degrees and sunny skies. So theres the satellite picture. We havent seen any changes at all over the last few days. East to west flow. Dry morning. Storms begin to pop up in the afternoon. Really the only thing that changes, it isnt the timing but how much moisture we have to work with. Each day it varies. Today obviously a little than we had yesterday. And i think the same thing tomorrow. Until the coverage begins to increase a bit this weekend. Now, not washout material. Or anything outdoors this weekend, i thi you wl have a little better chance of the storms. That will not be the case tonight as mostly Clear Conditions all night long. Friday, waking up 8 00, pa mrto if youre going to do tailgating before the game tomorrow, theres an outside chance of an isolated shower around downtown. And that will continue up until kickoff for that matter. Later on tomorrow evening, things begin to wind down. Saturday looks just as good too. Coming in from the caribbean, its later on in the period. You can even see on saturday, we have moisture out there. While it wont change the timing of anything, the coverage will be higher in rainfall and rain chances on saturday and sunday. Now, next monday, then things begin to change. This is something that we put on here. These are just the tracks. You have the european forecast track, the u. S. Model. This isnt technically the forecast. Plots. There doare zens of them. These are the big ones. Through sunday, you notice similar now. These models are in general agreement neither one developed this storm particularly that strong. Then they go into the gulf. The euro still comes up the west coast of florida as a weaker system. Im going to throw this out there. In my opinion even though the models are not showing it, you get either of these models, you get that storm if its still together, which is a big if, but if it is and it is out in th water temperature where it is, that thing cou blow up. It would not have an impact for us but the northern gulf coast would have to watch that. The euro and the gsf keeps it to the west coast of florida as a weak system. Now, rain, yeah. There will be rain with it. Even as a weak system. Im not ready to say incredibly high rainfall totals. But if it gets stronger as it moves away, some of the bands could increase rainfall pretty for the time being, this is a ragged system but it is getting closer to the area that we have been talking about from the beginning right near the bahamas. There could be additional development. I would anticipate there would most of it would likely not be until the early part of next week, once and if it gets into the gulf. Here is a look at the most accurate 7day forecast. Rain chances a bit below normal tomorrow. Back up to where we should be saturday. By sunday, monday, tuesday and wednesday, depending on what is popping in the tropics, rain significantly. Thank you, denis. A plane capturing your every move.

Chief meteorologist Denis Phillips weighing in right now. Denis. Yeah. I think what is going to happen is it will take a while for this to get organized. Once it does, it probably wont be around south florida. It could easily be more to the west. Now, this is you notice that was an 80 likelihood development and now it has gone down to 70 . Theres plenty of good reasons there. It looks pathetic. You look at this, theres your low ceer you dont have any thunderstorms around it. You dont have anything wrapping around. And itsgoing tobeovg off to the west pretty quickly at about 20 miles per hour. Now, theres still a window of opportunity in this general area that there could be florida has anything to worry about. It would be shocking but not unprecedented. It has happened before with systems because the water here just about as warm as anyplace on earth. Because of that, there is a possibility that there could be development there. But in my opinion, its when it gets out in the gulf of mexico. Now, if it moves up on the west side toward our neck of the woods, it would be weaker because its close to land. If it makes it out west of florida and into waters of the gulf, then its a whole other ball game. We will talk about that coming up.
