As you go well, well off to the east, we actually have had a couple of clouds towards the east coast and a sprinkle or two, but just in general, a wonderful start to the day. Look at the temperatures. Really for most of us, theyre running two or three degrees warmer than yesterday in the 7 00 hour. 66 in brandon, winter haven, frost proof, bartow at 68 degrees. Back to wesley chapel, 66. Low to mid 60s from brooksville lower 70s right now. Jacksonville at 70. Weve had some moisture stream across the state and it wouldnt surprise me to get a couple of those inland sprinkles over the next several hours. So just keep that in mind,al the rain chances are less than 10 , it is a possibility for inland spots. Our dew points are in the moderate category. Once they start getting above 70, thats when it starts to be the course of the next couple of days, that doesnt happen. They stay in the moderate category until we get into the late friday, early saturday time frame. By friday morning at 8 00, you see this yellow, the line between the yellow and the green. Watch how fast this moves through. By saturday morning, here comes that refreshing air. Dew points are back in the 40s and 50s and there it shall stay going to be real nice overall. Here are the sprinkles that i was just telling you about and some of them are holding together, citrus county. You may deal with a couple of those. It wouldnt surprise me to get a stray sprinkle in polk county as well. In general, rain chances are not there. Not even when the front comes through on friday are we anticipating rain fall. Its november. November is the driest month of the year. It takes a lot to get us rainfall and thats not t mostly sunny, seasonably warm as our temperatures will again runabout five degrees above normal this afternoon which doesnt seem like a lot, but its only like two or three degrees cooler than a record high so thats why i call it seasonably warm. Mostly clear, 68 degrees, mild again tonight with scattered clouds. Well continue with the mid 80s for you tomorrow afternoon. Boaters, i think youre used to northeast winds at 10 knots. Water temperatures 75 degrees. By late in the day on friday, the winds will shift to the northwest. Well drag in the cooler, drier air. As an extra bonus, well turn the clocks back saturday night into sunday morning getting that extra hour of sleep and well stay in the upper 70s through next tuesday. No complaints whatsoever. Vanessa looks good. Thanks. Its 7 16 right now and well check in expressway. Seeing some i would say slightly unusual delays in the souhbound direction. No official reports of crashes or anything like that, but well check into this. It seems as though the start of the delays and where they were starting was a little bit different than what we typically see this time of morning. By the airplane, youre running about 10 miles an hour in that southbound direction so maybe give yourself a few extra minutes if you have to head this way and if i find anything out about what may or may not be happening here on the vets, ill let you know. Minutes. Not too much to complain about with the travel times but something is a little different in the area. Pasco county, we did have a crash reported earlier. We still have the lane blocks and the delays here. State road 52 at old pasco road, seeing most of the delays in the westbound direction but some stacking up eastbound here so make sure youre adding extra travel times if your commute takes you this way as well.
