NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAMPA BAY RUSKIN FL
238 AM EDT SAT APR 18 2026
DISCUSSION
HIGH PRESSURE RIDGING OVER THE AREA WILL KEEP RAIN-FREE CONDITIONS
OVER THE AREA THROUGH THE WEEKEND. SOME CRITICAL RH VALUES AROUND 35
PERCENT EXPECTED TODAY, BUT LIGHT WINDS BELOW 15 MPH WILL PRECLUDE
THE NEED FOR ANY RED FLAG WARNINGS. THE NEXT CHANCE OF ANY RAINFALL
COMES ON MONDAY AFTERNOON AS A WEAK COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH THE
AREA. RAINFALL WILL BE LIMITED TO THE INTERIOR AND SOUTHWEST
FLORIDA. DRY AIR WITH SOME CRITICAL RH VALUES EXPECTED MONDAY
AFTERNOON, COMBINED WITH BREEZY NORTHEAST WINDS, PRODUCING SOME
HAZARDOUS FIRE CONDITIONS, PRIMARILY ALONG THE NATURE COAST.
CONDITIONS WILL BE CLOSELY MONITORED FOR POSSIBLE RED FLAG WARNING
CONDITIONS.
FOG POTENTIAL...NO WIDESPREAD DENSE FOG EXPECTED.
