.DISCUSSION...
LIGHT WINDS AND COOLER TEMPERATURES ARE HELPING THE FORMATION OF
AREAS OF GROUND FOG EARLY THIS MORNING. LATEST OBSERVATIONS ALONG
THE I-4 CORRIDOR OF HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY INDICATE VISIBILITIES
RANGING FROM 1/2 MILE UP TO 4 MILES. THIS FOG SITUATION WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH SUNRISE WITH LOCALLY DENSE AREAS OF FOG AND THEN
WILL IMPROVE BY 9 AM EST. WINDS INCREASE OUT OF THE NORTHEAST
AND EAST THROUGH THE MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON HOURS AS STRONG
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS TO OUR NORTH. A STEADY EASTERLY FLOW IS
EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TONIGHT AND HELP PREVENT ANOTHER OCCURRENCE
OF DENSE FOG.
