@for more information on the @water taxi service head up to @our web site at fox13news.com. @ and it is a beautiful, cold @start to your morning. @maybe a pretty nice day for your @boating, jim, what do you any. @>> jim: nice weather as far as, @water. @but on the cool side. @you know. @out there on your boat bundled @up, but i love that story about @the water taxi, because, you @know, what a nice relaxing way @to get back and forth to @different places. @wouldn't that be a nice thing to @have? @as you look outside right now, @we continue to see really quiet @conditions, beautiful sunrise @there over -- from our usf @marine science camera looking @over the bay from st. petersburg @over the bay from st. @petersburg. @and this picture doesn't show @you is it is just really cool @outside with these temperatures @running in the 40s, the 30s, @along the water -- the water is @helping to keep those @temperatures a little more mild. @and downtown st. petersburg @right now sitting about -- about @51 degrees. @here in testimony, 44. @dew point at 35. @humidity at 71%. @the winds a light northerly wind @at 3 miles per hour. @brooksville. @you are below freezing at 31 @degrees. @crystal river right at the @freezing mark of 32. @new port richey 45. @st. petersburg is -- that water @around you which is currently @running about 63, 64 degrees. @so keeping you at that 51-degree @mark. @sarasota down at 45 degrees. @even as you get to eastern @hillsborough county. @brandon at 39 with lakeland @currently sitting at 39 degrees. @have the cold front work its way @through. @and strong northerly winds @brought back the cooler and @drier air and you can see we are @signature much cooler than we @are even yesterday. @here in tampa, we are 11 degrees @yesterday. @it 8 degrees colder in wesley @chapel and the cool temperatures @really mean we are going to see @a cool afternoon for today. @very pleasant weather as far as @humidity and lower humidity will @stick around for the next few @days and get a lot of clear @skies. @high pressure just kind of @meandering across the southeast @over the state means we will @continue to be see plenty of sun @through next week. @not until this high gets to the @east that we start to warm @temperatures up. @that will actually be tomorrow. @that high will shift on to the @east, and really have been quiet @weather across much of the @eastern half of the country, and @really in fact -- much of the @country is quiet right now as we @get to the rocky mountain that @we are seeing really any @weather. @we are seeing a few snow @flurries across west virginia @and western pennsylvania, person @new york as well. @and really most of the weather @is up into canada. @now watch futurecast. @that moves on to the east for @today and it will be lighter @winds and once we get to the @east, our winds turn more toward @an easterly and southeasterly @direction. @and that warms temperatures up @slowly as we get into the first @part of the week. @and by the time we get into the @middle of the week, we are @looking at daytime highs into @the mid and in some cases the @upper 70s. @we are watching one front that @is working its way into the @southeast, but notice as it is @moving into georgia, @mississippi, alabama. @you are not seeing much in the @way of any rain with this. @it will work its way through @here. @go ahead and keep that 30% @chance of a couple of showers by @wednesday. @behind that just slightly cooler @temperatures. @so we are really not going to @see that big cooldown with the @next cold front. @so as far as these temperatures @as we go through the week. @we are warming things up nicely @by the time we get into tuesday @where we are at 77. @74. @so it can taking until about @monday until we get up to what @we consider average or normal @temperatures for this time of @the year. @the forecast goes like this for @today, plenty of sun. @a little bit on the cool side. @daytime high of 63 degrees. @and then for tonight, clear @skies and one more chilly night @for tonight with that overnight @low of 44 degrees. @and then for tomorrow, a nice @day. @plenty of sun. @daytime high of 71 degrees. @now on the water. @winds are out of the north at 10 @to 15 knots. @and a moderate chop on the by a. @here is your seven-day forecast. @temperatures into the 70s. @slight chance of a few showers. @on wednesday a
