While a few passing coastal showers through midday Saturday, the Bay region was anticipating a line of showers and storms to move into the area after 4 p.m. and drifting east-southeast across central Florida into the early evening. Strong winds, hail and a brief tornado are possible with the line of storms. 

The Storm Prediction Center has the entire Tampa Bay area in a slight risk, level 2 out of 5, for severe weather.

Damaging winds will be the primary concern for any stronger storms, however, some storms could produce large hail. Even an isolated, brief tornado cannot be ruled out.

While the leading edge of this line of storms will be the strongest near the coast, overall weakening is expected as this round of rain drifts south.

As for Sunday, that's when we expect round two, our final round, of storms to arrive. However, the timing will be very early! Possibly overnight through the pre-dawn hours of early Sunday.
