The dew moisture this morning was as though a light rainfall had taken place overnight, but I don't have absolute evidence that happened, therefore I'll rate it a very heavy TRACE of something....here at my South Tampa location today...where that thick dense fog lingered all the way to noontime, preventing warming, and then after a very brief ray of sunshine, a heavy cloud cover came out of nowhere, ruining what was supposed to be a pleasant clear warming day. So said the TV meteorologists and the NWS. Reported by Veteran Weather Watcher Don Legler™ And trust me, this was difficult to report. |

Hear me? Then sunrise finally began a gradual warming that brought a pleasant yet brief daytime high of 66° to my South Tampa location. Reported by Veteran Weather Watcher Don Legler™ |
