Here's your Tampa area weather forecast for late Tuesday and overnight into Wednesday, with a preview of the weekend ahead.

  • Pleasant Wednesday
  • Big warming trend ahead
  • More humid weekend             

Hopefully you had a chance to get out and enjoy this beautiful weather. It was absolutely fantastic, with low humidity and below average temperatures.

This will continue overnight into early Wednesday morning, with lows in the 50s for northern counties, and low to mid 60s from about I-4 southward. Skies will be mainly clear.

Wednesday will feature mostly sunny skies and slowly warming temperatures. It will still be a gorgeous day, but it will be a little warmer in the afternoon with highs back in the low to mid 80s.

Wednesday night will be mostly clear and pleasant with lows in the 60s.

Thursday will be the first day that its noticeably warmer with highs getting back to the upper 80s. Skies will be mostly sunny to partly cloudy.

You will really feel the heat and increase in humidity come Friday. That will be the first day that it starts to feel more like summer, which is right about on cue. Unlike northern climates, our summer temperatures usually start to be felt in May.

High temperatures will easily top out near 90 at the coast, but inland areas will be in the low to mid 90s. Expect a hotter, more humid weekend ahead.
