TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) – As winds continue to blow off the Gulf of Mexico, a few showers will be pushed ashore this morning. Rain chances will increase by mid-afternoon. These showers will quickly move east and taper off by early evening.
We’ll still feel the extra moisture with the onshore winds. Highs will be in the low 90s, but it will feel like 100-105 again.
This weekend the pattern will reverse and the wind will be from the southeast. This makes for drier mornings and hot afternoons. Highs will reach the low-mid 90s this weekend.
The first showers will develop around noon Saturday, but widespread severe storms are expected across the center of the state by late afternoon. Some of the rain will drift back toward the Gulf of Mexico after sunset.
There will be a similar phenomenon on Sunday with late showers moving towards the Gulf.
The summer weather pattern, with sunny mornings and thunderstorms at the end of the day, will remain most classic in the coming week.
In the tropics there is one tropical wave that will likely become our next tropical storm. The next name on the list is Beryl. This tropical wave in the eastern Atlantic Ocean should move westward into the Caribbean early next week.
