Here's what you need to know about Tampa Bay's weather on Friday and into the weekend:

  • Cold front moves in tonight
  • Clouds gone early, mostly sunny Saturday
  • Highs in mid to upper 80s

There is a front on the way, but it will not bring a blast of cool air like the front did last weekend. Instead, it will bring a brief shot of less humid, drier air.

Morning lows will be warm due to an onshore breeze, staying in the low 70s near coastal areas, while inland spots dip into the mid to upper 60s.

Saturday will feature partly cloudy skies in the morning with a small chance of a stray sprinkle or shower. However, the front will come through fast enough that most of the day will end up being mostly sunny.

Saturday night will be clear and beautiful for this time of year with lower humidity. Lows will drop into the 60s into Sunday morning.

Sunday will wrap up the weekend on a nice note, with mostly sunny skies and low humidity. However, due to the dry air and abundant sunshine we will actually have warmer highs in the upper 80s.

The boating forecast for Saturday will feature a wind from the west-northwest at 10 to 15 knots. Seas will run 2 to 3 feet. Bay and inland waters will have a moderate chop.
