Weather forecast: Hot, dry conditions through Thursday

Here’s your Tampa Bay area forecast heading into Tuesday morning, with a preview of the rest of the week’s conditions.

▪ Clear skies, mild temperatures Tuesday morning

▪ Hot, dry conditions through Thursday

▪ More moisture over the weekend

High pressure to the north of the area will allow the east wind to remain in place overnight. Clear skies and mild temperatures will greet us Tuesday morning.

Lows will be in the mid 60s north to low 70s around Tampa Bay.

Hot and dry conditions will be with us for the most part through Thursday.

With the east wind and a sea breeze, enough moisture may lead to a stray shower Wednesday and Thursday afternoon near the coast, but the rain chance is less than 10 percent.

More moisture will be around over the weekend for a few scattered showers.
