(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.
