Description
Good morning, this is your surf zone forecast for West Central and Southwest Florida, brought to you by the National Weather Service Tampa Bay.
We're looking at a beautiful day ahead across all our beaches. Whether you're planning to hit the water at Clearwater Beach, Siesta Key, Sanibel, or anywhere in between, conditions are going to be pretty mellow out there.
Let's talk about the surf first. You're looking at one foot or less across the board today. It's going to be glassy and calm, which is perfect if you're just looking to get wet and enjoy the water without any wild conditions. Rip current risk remains low, though remember that life threatening rip currents can still pop up near groins, jetties, and piers even on calm days, so always keep that in mind.
The water temperature is in the lower to mid 80s depending on where you are, so it's going to feel nice and warm. The air temperature will top out around 90 degrees in the Pinellas and Hillsborough areas, with the northern zones a bit cooler in the mid 80s. Expect partly sunny skies throughout the day with high UV, so get that sunscreen on before you head out.
Winds will start light and easterly this morning around five miles per hour, then shift to the west or northwest this afternoon, staying pretty gentle overall.
Tonight, mostly cloudy skies until around midnight, then we'll see some clearing. It's going to cool down to the upper 70s, and that's when your next high tide comes in. The southern zones, down around Fort Myers Beach and the Venice area, could see a few isolated showers and thunderstorms after midnight, but overall it looks pretty quiet.
Now, here's where things get a little more interesting heading into Wednesday. We're still looking at calm conditions with one foot or less surf and low rip current risk. However, the thunderstorm potential increases to moderate, especially across the Pinellas, Hillsborough, Manatee, Sarasota, Charlotte, and Lee County beaches. So while you'll see mostly sunny skies, scattered showers and thunderstorms are in the forecast, particularly across the southern beaches. It's still going to be warm, topping out near 90 degrees in most spots.
Winds Wednesday will be light, starting from the southeast around ten miles per hour before shifting to the southwest in the afternoon. High tide will come in during the morning at all our main beaches, with low tide arriving in the afternoon.
Bottom line: today and tomorrow offer perfect conditions to get out and enjoy the water. Just keep an eye on those afternoon storms Wednesday, bring some extra sunscreen, and you're all set for a great couple of days at the beach.
