    UPDATE: Weeki Wachee Preserve remains 155 acres and 90% contained. Crews continued mop up operations, putting 2300 gallons of water on the fire. Interior pockets of fuel continue to burn so you may see smoke in the area.

    Well above average temps continue again, but we finally will see some potential for rain as scattered showers develop. Most favored areas will be inland locations and east of I-75 as a sea breeze boundary develops. A brief rumble of thunder could also occur, but chance is small.

    Weeki Watchee Preserve Wildfire is now 150 acres, due to burn out operations (setting fire inside a control line to consume fuel between the edge of the fire & the control line) it is 50% contained. .

    March has been off to a dry start and follows the below average precip that was observed last month in February. In the past 14 days, rainfall has only been 5 to 10% of normal and as a result, drought conditions have worsened and the fire danger has increased substantially.

    The record warmth will be sticking around well into the new week as strong high pressure continues to dominate. As a result, many locations could continue to break additional high temperature records in the coming days! ☀️
