Pit certainly where he intended pto be where people could walk by pdrive by. Pdrive by art work. Pnothing to be, its not pappropriate for a museum. Preally meant to be outdoors. P now, part of the reason for pthat is how the it seems to move pas you move. Pwhen you walk or drive by it, it pchanges. Pone direction it looks like pthis. Pthe other it looks totally pdifferent. Probin a manager of tampa art rograms division. Pshe finds the art, finds the pmoney. Ublic, private and grants. Pto make public art happen in ptampa. Pand she says theres a pdifference between this kind of pmuseum. Plot of it has to do with how pyoure engaged. Phow you encounter it. Pin the public its, its very pharsh conditions. Ptypically youve got sun, youve pgot wind. Pyouve got salt, water. Pyouve got other kinds of pdistractions you need to watch pthe road. Pa lot going on. Part. Psome of them you see every day. Psome of them you may be noticing phere for the first time. Pin a museum you go to the art. Pin public art, you stumble pacross it. Pit almost just comes to you. Presilient. Pthe real intent is always got to plook good. Pif it doesnt look at its best, pthen youre not a disservice not ponly to artist but the public pwho experiences it. P it was a spruced up when it pwas installed on a bay shore plooks like new again. Art of landscape here. Pand thats what public art is psupposed to be. P what would it look like pwithout it . Pi mean, if you think about it i pmean sometimes you can say you pjust miss it or you just glaze pover it. Pif it werent there, i think pyoud really notice it. Prhodes. Pwhat nice story there. Pwhat a perfect time of the year pto get out enjoy some of that poutdoor art. Pyeah. Ptimes of the year. Ptypically youve got pretty mild ptemperatures. Prelatively low humidity.

Pthings going to a okay, pretty pnice looking weather out there pwith temperatures running in the plower 70s. Pgood day to get out there this pevening. Pa little maybe on the cool side. Pbut still you bring a jacket pwith you, youre going to be pjust fine. Pany rain that we see thats pgoing to through the overnight phours. Psay after midnight and then, as pwe get into the first part of pthe morning tomorrow, thats pwhen were going to start to see pmaybe a slight chance of a pcouple showers as we get into psay between about 1 to 6, p7 oclock in the morning. Pthats our best chance of seeing psome showers for tomorrow. Pnow visible satellite loop, just pcontinues to show lot of high pclouds moving over head. Pjust kind of gives that milky pthat will continue throughout pthe rest of the today. Pcold front will be working its pway down the state. Pand ahead of it temperatures not pbad. Pwere running in the lower 70s rimarily along the coastal psections. Pbut as you move just a little pbit away from the coast, you can psee were seeing temperatures palready in mid 70s. Psurprised if we get into upper p70s away from the coastline. Pbut with a front to our south, pwhat weve done is weve dried pthat atmosphere out. Pdew points which will climb back pinto the upper 60s yesterday, pwere dropping them back down pinto the 40s and the 50s. Pso it feels very, very pcomfortable outside with that plower humidity. Ptheres the front. Pkind of stalling out to our psouth. Phigh pressure sliding on towards pthe east. Pyou can see a lot of weather. Pyou can see the showers, some psleet, some freezing rain and psome snow once you head up ptowards say kentucky, indiana, pover into ohio. Pbut notice the motion with all pof this weather. Pbasically just moving right to pthe east. Pyoure not really seeing a whole pstorms. Pso as front swings into the psouth, the big push of the pweather will be to the east. Pso thats where our rain chances peven though we have a front pheading or way really only about p20 percent for early tomorrow. Ptemperatures, you can see a lot pof cold air on the map. Pwere not really drawing that pcold air further down towards pthe south. P20s and 30s across the northern ptier of states. Pnow watch it here all play out pon future cast. Phigh continues to work et cetera pway away. Ptheres a low, shifting on ptowards the east. Pcold front moves through. Pslight chance of a couple of pshowers through the overnight phours and into early tomorrow pmorning. Pthe net high builds right back pin. Pmild temperatures for friday pthrough the week
