962 FXUS62 KTBW 121737 AFDTBW Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL 137 PM EDT Mon Aug 12 2024 ...New AVIATION... .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 136 PM EDT Mon Aug 12 2024 Convection is pushing east at Tampa Bay area terminals, and should generally remain there. However, a few isolated showers have once again popped up over adjacent Gulf Waters, so will keep VCTS for a couple more hours to be safe. SWFL terminals are only just beginning to see TCUs along the sea breeze boundary, so anticipating convective development soon. With some drier air noted, haven`t opted for any TEMPOs at this time, however. Will monitor and add as needed. Conditions are looking generally drier for the next few days, and thus windows for convection are looking smaller. No other significant impacts appear on the horizon. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
