Tampa residents can expect a mix of sun and clouds in their Thanksgiving forecast, as indicated by the National Weather Service (NWS) in Tampa, FL. Temperatures today will climb to a comfortable 84 degrees, with a shift from light and variable to southeast winds around 6 mph come morning. As families prepare to gather, partly cloudy skies tonight will dip temperatures to a cozy 65 degrees, fostering an ideal setting for any outdoor evening plans in the region.
Looking ahead to Wednesday, the NWS predicts a high near 83 with calm winds turning west southwest. However, as often the case with cosy family gatherings and turkey feasts, attendees might not notice the shift as the wind picks up 5 to 7 mph—a subtle herald of the feast to come. Wednesday night will follow suit with mostly cloudy skies, and temperatures lightly falling to around 64 degrees.
On Thanksgiving Day itself, the forecast from NWS is a little cooler but still pleasant for parade watchers or football tossers in the yard, with a high around 74 and a north wind blowing at 7 to 10 mph. As the day's festivities wind down, the evening promises a crisp chill setting in, with the mercury dropping to a cooler 47 degrees; NWS notes that north winds could gust as high as 18 mph.
Friday shoppers eager to bag those Black Friday deals will enjoy sunny skies with a high near 67, perfect weather for hopping from store to store. Donning a light jacket might be wise, as the later hours draw in a partly cloudy night and temperatures hovering around 49 degrees. For weekend plans, the NWS suggests picture-perfect weather, with a sunny Saturday reaching 77 degrees and East winds ushering in gusts as high as 21 mph—not that these breezes are likely to interfere with any outdoor endeavors.
