Had light to moderate rain with a band of showers earlier today.

Tampa Bay Hurricane · #3062 Postby **Tampa Bay Hurricane** » Sun Dec 07, 2008 1:09 pm

Cooler today. Around the mid 60s right now.
For Saint Petersburg, forecasted low is 50*F based on
the weather channel local forecast (nice music on that local
forecast, by the way).

Also, on Monday-Wednesday, enough moisture and heat, with highs
nearing or exceeding 80 by Tuesday and Wednesday, will return to the
Gulf of Mexico ahead of a strong cold front. This should give us a good
chance of thunderstorms late Wednesday afternoon along Florida's
West Coast. Some storms could be strong, given pressure gradient
and strong upper level jet winds. Expect beneficial rain for the most
part.

The new convective outlook from the SPC has me in a 5% tornado, 5% hail, 15% of high wind risk.

Very Strong Winds, rain was blowing very hard.

Any models showing the Siberian express coming our way? Any time soon. Seems like most of the Artic air so far. Heads down the mid west straight South then back out to sea. It snowed in New Orleans :eek:
