first look at your skytower radar forecast with dave osterberg. >>dave: boy, it is a warm one outside this morning. a lot of us are still in the lower 80s. those will be the lows. 81 in tampa. 76 the dew point. that's just sky high. we're going to get right back to lower 90s for today but yesterday, we had next to nothing in terms of thunderstorms in the afternoon. today we're bringing them back. and the same for tomorrow as well. tropics are active as well. >>vanessa: and right now 6:33 and just to recap what we mentioned in the last report, the biggest blockage from the bradenton area. it is a fatal crash reported state road 70. alternate here is 63rd avenue east and just a reminder for folks, fatal crash investigations the roadway so please use that alternate for a few hours. we'll update you once we learn a little more about this. and then with that being said, we'll get to other crashes. clearwater area, serious injuries reported here. one lane blocked at the very least. please take care headed that way and for folks in tampa, we're waiting f

we'll get to dave osterberg who has the very latest on the storm's track. good morning. >>dave: watching and waiting and we see all this convection trying to wrap around a center, and the thing is this area of low pressure, this depression, still opened up because of all the wind shear that's been going on in the mid to upper levels of the atmosphere. the longer it takes to organize, the less of a chance it would have to be stronger. it is forecast to become a tropical storm later today and continue to drift off toward the west, maybe even the west-northwest over the next 24 hours. then it will start to turn and make landfall in the big bend area of florida sometime on thursday. so probably thursday afternoon or so with a strong tropical storm. tampa is expecting heavy rain, minor coastal flooding, too, with the southwest wind pouring the water onshore and the possibility of some isolated tornados. triple threat there. going into thursday afternoon, primary threat around here. today, though, like yesterday, that 60% to 70% rain chance as state. we'll have much more on th

[laughter]. >> ignorance is bliss, my friend. >> we are in the mid 80s, temperatures obviously very high. late august. i want to talk about the tropics and this weak low if you want to call it that. it is not much. this area. it is what we call an "invest." computer models, when a system doesn't have a low level center they are all over the place. typical trend is to push west-northwest towards our state. let me tell you why on wednesday morning we can't give you a definitive answer. here doesn't develop this system, keeps it as a weak ole rainstorm making its way up into the state by monday and tuesday. your prime minister -- p.m. model. this is last night's run. you are going to go what? through south florida right through the gulf. southwest louisi

first we need the forecast from dave osterberg. a lot going on. >>dave: 79 degrees is the current temperature right along the coastline, still the 81 in clearwater and 80 in sarasota. very similar day to yesterday. back to the lower 90s, some spots may touch the mid 90s afternoons. bump it up to 50% for saturday here's what ed narain believes i'm all about public schools. and i oppose private school vouchers that take funds away from public education. i opposed "stand your ground" gun laws and i'm against rick scott's hate-filled agenda. i strongly support medicaid expansion and i want to increase the minimum wage. democrat ed narain. endorsed by florida's teachers and kathy castor. hey girls >>dave: and a little extra moisture in the atmosphere. we have a little low cloud cover. the sun will take care of that and in general, i think we finish the same way we did yesterday. i mean, you can already tell as some showers are popping up along the east coast with that east wind, northeast to east wind coming across the state, most of this activity earl

two collided sending him to the we need to get over to dave osterberg with look at the forecast now. hey dave. morning. the forecast and short-term, meaning today, tomorrow, going into saturday is easy. straightforward. it's more like it was yesterday. it's the long-term that we're going to have to pull our air out until we can fine tune this, this is tropics you ever got gaston a hurricane by way still heading oh tout sea. invest 99 l. keep getting people invest is an area of investigation. they label them 90 to inspect go in order go back to 90 again. l meaning atlantic. none of it really means anything sgrus an area they are investigating. a lot of rain with this. right now, based on what their computer model are showing, over past 36 hours, rain is going to be major factor from this as it works it is way toward state and eventually through the state. watch computer model they are all pinpointing on to florida. most is the intensity. because for instance, let me show this, gfs model latest one coming in shows it working its way slowly up west coast of our state. but not really dev

let'set out to dave osterberg. think about this for a second how many times you go to the store and it didn't fit. had to bring it back. could you imagine walking wait a second. wrong size i told you 3/8. going to launch another one. steamy weekend ahead. that's your headline there. 83 degrees. so, our current temperature on par, where we were yesterday at plus, i think we get back to lower 90s looking skytower radar. pretty quiet. while.ing to stay that way we will have a few isolated n dg thunrstorms. but the raihances are dropping a little bit back to about 30 percent. i want to spendnime here talking abouthe tropics. you got fiona to the north. tropical wave further south to theeast. in the next couple of days, the potential low for development. but then after that, it's going to get into an area very favorable for development. has it moves westward knot going to take snap path. 50/50 potentially a named storm. you put the computer models on it they are all pretty much in agreement in short-term by pushing stor

we will start this tuesday morning with a check of the forecast and dave osterberg. you know what has interesting last three or four morning every morning has been different. the rain coverage has been different. and we started off when i came in this morning there wasn't and now, all of sudden, you get rounds of heavier rain. very close in some cases on shore now. notice around hernando county bay port, and getting down to spring hill, what we're seeing some heavier rain work its way from southwest to northeast. you go down to pasco county into pinellas this heavy rain is really just been looming just kind of sitting off shore. some of it is starting to work its way toward beaches largo as you go out, well let's say clearwater, largo, and through the southern pinellas county beaches, look at that rain coming at you. then more headed towards anna maria island. our wet pattern continues for another morning. i think by tomorrow what we're going to do though, try to shift them a little bit more afternoon and evening. but, temperatures mid 80s today with that 70 percent

let's get over to dave osterberg. a little rain, right? >>dave: this is for the next few mornings. go ahead and get used to it. when you get up in the morning, i want you checking with the radar, checking with us every day here on "good day" as showers are beginning to develop and even off the coast of pinellas county, they're starting to develop. longboat key to have some tropical downpours. this is not a huge deal but it is a nuisance very early in the morning as the showers work onshore. nothing has really worked onshore yet so obviously, not as bad as it was yesterday in pinellas and then we go further north here, west of crystal river where we do have the thunderstorm heading onshore. it's 6:31 in the morning and as the showers develop and start to the blue sky. so enjoy it now, brookdale, bayshore, 79 degrees. highs today in the upper 80s with the rain chances between 60% and 70%. >>vanessa: of course, we always urge folks to slow it down if they're driving on any of the wet roadways. so if you do have showers in the area, please be careful. we just want to update you briefly

let's get right to dave osterberg with the latest on where this system is going. nine. we're watching and waiting, right? >>dave: how long has it been? a week? we've been waiting for this to do something and still this morning, it is disorganized. it's got some wind shear impacting the west side of it so you're not getting a lot of thunderstorms to wrap around the center which is good. becoming pretty strong. but in general, all that tropical moisture has got to go somewhere. right now it's in the gulf and it's going to head to the west coast of florida and eventually into the big bend area sometime on thursday. so a lot of convection. they're detecting 30, 35 mile-per-hour wind. that keeps it at a tropical depression. the path for this storm by tomorrow at 2:00 p.m., you see how it's kd latitude but still well offshore and then making landfall sometime on thursday afternoon. the problem for us is going to be the tremendous amount of heavy rain and potential for coastal flooding at the time of high tide. you're pushing the water you're way. with all the rain we've seen

osterberg facebook page. i'm wondering vanessa, do you think that she found the god at the end of that rainbow? it looks like it's at the end of the road. she's heading there. she's look closer. look at you. look at you. i didn't even notice that. maybe she will share some gold with us citrus county. beautiful picture, fox 13 mug for you. all right. don't tell. don't tell if you found the gold. all right. thanks for sending that picture in. time right now 8:40. check roadway looking a lot better out there on our majors, of course our main concern as 75 northbound approaching that. it looks pretty clear here, a six minute ride between selman and i-4 looks pretty awesome over howard frankland bridge heading from there beyond up to the interchange, westbound i-4 no big complaints with travel times sitting 14 minutes as you're heading from 75 to the downtown interchange. we'll check in on pinellas county, u.s. 19, southbound still seeing some i'd say moderate delays approaching bellair that earlier crash, in that

if dave. dave osterberg erg beggar this morning showing a solid. and working its way over the coastal areas. now you're sta and more breaks throughout pinellas county. hillsborough county, and points north. starting to watch more of the activity, shift further inland. that's where worry going to tend to see the stronger thunderstorms as we go through the afternoon hours. right now the heaviest rain from say about riverview stretching through southeastern hillsborough county, up into central and northern polk county. along i-4 heading up towards orlando then heavy rain right through the middle of manatee sarasota. so if you're going to be driving along i-75, down in that area you're basically looking some torrential rain and lighter amounts as you work your way further and further to the south. again more moisture and rain into the gulf of mexico. but a lot of that activity kind of drying up some. so don't necessarily expect to see a lot of this large rain band working its way over us. but we will start to see more scattered showers as we go through

we will start this tuesday morning with a check of the forecast and dave osterberg. you know what has interesting last three or four morning every morning has been different. the rain coverage has been different. and we started off when i came in this morning there wasn't

if you'd like to win a good day mug head over to fox 13 dave osterberg's pay #welivehere. very nice. definitely mug worthy. in. 8:38. on roadways here we're following a crash along u.s. 19. haines bay shore road. lane blockages are possible. we're not seeing any big delay delays on 19. bad news it this does involve a bicyclist we're hearing that person is pick up hopefully that bodes well as far as extent of injuries here. to around big bend 30 one. one lane will be blocked southbound after crash remember your move over law same is case for delays not really seeing them on major roadway that's good. csx work has postponed. we were expecting that to start today massachusetts avenue rail road crossing east pine street being closed. however that will start tomorrow and then an extension we're seeing of the kentucky avenue closure through tonight. so expect delays there and continue to avoid the area. in case you missed ra damaged fire hydrant crew actually on scene here. we just have a minor delays knot bound and southbound. but the area of concern is northbound where we have

let's head over to dave osterberg. a little bit of rain again on bad as it was yesterday morning. yet. but we do have that heightened chance for rain. especially right along the immediate coastline during the morning hours and then shifting inland for the afternoon. right along i-75 there near osprey up to just east of sarasota. a little bit of rain, i mean not bad. starting oh of this morning also have a couple of showers very close to the pinellas county coast. but we just got a lot of moisture in the atmosphere. so whoa. hello. >> frm spider. oh my gosh. that is so cool. 80 degrees with south, southeast wind at 7 miles per hour. that is really cool. >> okay. anyway at showers will take over later this morning along the coast move inland for the afternoon, here your highs in the upper 80s. >> was that the same camera that had watch on it? >> yeah did the spider eat the watch? >> i don't know. breaking news investigate dave >> that is so cool. >> all right thanks so much. time right now about to switch over to 8:02. as we mentioned here at the top of hour we do have big road clos

13 dave osterberg. and look for information on how you can win. good stuff. yeah. great picture. looks like they conquered mountain. sure did. yeah. we're slowly but surely without not without some concerns. we do have? delays we're watching here. this 75 northbound. southbound looking slow for that matter in this area. this is the camera south of harney road. earlier we had a crash more of something to see. it since cleared out a lot. this will be on left shoulder, some reason folks are really slowing down in this area. so back ups towards the selman expressway, 21 minutes from there towards fletcher. and then, southbound direction also looking pretty slow at 15 mi and i-4. some con vegs here pretty notable along i-4 westbound 75 to downtown. sitting around 22 minute ride also 22 minutes to get from st. pete side howard frankland bridge up top interchange. reports of traffic light not cycling out tampa area. 56th street north at busch boulevard. seeing some pretty notable southbound delays. might be wo

let's head over to dave osterberg. a little bit of rain again on

two people busiest at the station, you and dave osterberg, no doubt about it. so thanks for keeping us safe there, vanessa. >>vanessa: my pleasure. >>charley: i hear your voice a little bit. how about yest i was really proud of yesterday. you probably never even made it out of the traffic center, did you? >>vanessa: i was supposed to but -- >>charley: i know. the original plan, i think you were going to be with me over in clearwater and then as the weather turned worse, they knew he needed to stay close to home and i was lucky enough to have jennifer epstein over there. i'll tell you what. we had a good time. we both were a little nervous going into it, not knowing if people would come all the way to the long center and if they would find us and the rain and wanted to make sure we collected as many school supplies as you did in tampa so the pressure was on. i cannot thank our "good day" viewers enough for braving the weather. i mean, coming out in the pouring rain at times. it did not stop. people just almost non stop flow of people bringing us school supplies

but we do dave osterberg have i'm seeing one lane moving. that good news for drivers. still go ahead and avoid the area. once again eastbound hillsborough air cargo where we have traffic backed up beyond veterans expressway quite slow in that area. >> and we'll keep you posted once we learn more on the lane blockages and get the clear. polk county drivers, we mentioned this in previous hours of good day. it looks like this tractor trailer crash is still working in the area. this is westbound i-4. exit ramp to 557. the tractor trailer was jackknifed. but it actually looks straightened out. so that is a good sign i'd say maybe they are starting to get this cleared out eastbound delays starting to look a little bit better too. because we did have left lane blocked in eastbound direction just plan for some minor under i-4 westbound the crash man disgo i showed you last report lanes are cleared this i expect travel times to get back to normal fairly soon. and then for those folks in the hernando county area spring hill drive seeing heavy westbound and eastbound dwlas. inspe
