| Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL 1229am EDT Tuesday May 19 2026 Issued at 1206am EDT Tuesday May 19 2026 Persistent pattern will be relatively locked in for the remainder of the week and the upcoming weekend. Surface high pressure over the western Atlantic will extend across the Florida peninsula through the week with the ridge axis located north of the forecast area. This will produce east to southeast boundary layer flow across the peninsula through the weekend. The west coast sea breeze boundary will develop each day with the southeast flow holding the boundary over the coastal counties. Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms will develop each afternoon along the boundary with the greatest areal coverage from the Tampa Bay area and south. Stronger storms will be capable of producing wind gusts of 40 to 50 MPH and small hail. An U/L low east of the Bahamas will drift northwest to just off the east coast of Florida. This will in effect create lower heigheights over west central and southwest Florida which will aid in increasing convective instability for the next several days. A strong U/L ridge will build over the forecast area during the weekend increasing large scale subsidence over the region. Although afternoon scattered showers/storms are still expected to develop along the west coast sea breeze boundary, the increased subsidence will decrease overall coverage of storms. Offshore flow will aid in continuing above normal daily temperatures across west central and southwest Florida with highs generally in the lower to mid 90s away from the coast. The increased subsidence over the weekend will allow temperatures to climb even a few degrees higher. Marine Issued at 1206am EDT Tuesday May 19 2026 Surface high pressure will hold over the waters through the period with no headlines expected. Main hazard will be showers/storms developing over land each day that will push locally offshore during the afternoon/evening hours creating locally strong winds and rough seas. Fire Weather Issued at 1206am EDT Tuesday May 19 2026 Sufficient low level moisture will hold over the region for the next several days which will keep minimum afternoon relative humidity values above critical levels.
