WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW FOR (79).png

Good morning from the ABC Action News team.

Yesterday's severe weather brought more than pounding rain: multiple tornado warnings were issued and over 1,200 customers reported power outages in the Tampa Bay area. While today's forecast is calmer, we'll still see some winds gust up to 30 mph throughout the day. And if you were planning to take out the boat for St. Patrick's Day, maybe reconsider—a high rip risk is up along the coast today, too.
