dunedin, down to indian rocks, brandon, over to ruskin, everything now beginning to fizzle out. by first thing tomorrow morning skies will begin to clear. temperatures will be cool but not really not much cooler than they typically should be for the middle part of november. upper 60s to lower 70s right now. at the airport skies are cloudy. we're clear in st. pete. temperatures upper 60s. we will be dropping down into the lower 60s by morning. there's the satellite picture. the reason we have the clouds and the showers, it's a front. that's not a particular strong front, but it is a cool front. as it moves through overnight what will happen is skies will clear from north to south as you can see they really already are in many cases. and with that tomorrow will be a beautiful day. we will start off in the low 60s. maybe a few upper 50s in our northern counties, then warm up to 80 degrees. so a nice cool morning, a very warm, pleasant afternoon with low humidity.

we are going to get a little bit of a reinforcing shot of cooler air friday night into saturday, so i think saturday morning will be the coolest morning that we will see. a lot of 50s. highs in the upper 70s. rain chances pretty much nonexistent after we get rid of what is going on out there now. by the early part of next week the models are hinting at a better chance of a few showers especially on tuesday. and then back behind it we could see another round of cooler weather by the middle of the week. so every three or four days we are looking air but sort of setting us up where we should be, which is an afternoon high of 79. afternoon highs should be below 80. of course, they won't be tomorrow. they will be about 80 or 81, but at least we are not talking about mid to upper 80s like we had just about 10 days ago. now, here is that long range pattern i talked about. and by the middle of next week we begin to see a little bit of a dip so there is a chance we could see some cooler air but

i really don't see much of a blast of cold air, and that likely continues right on into thanksgiving. now, there is a lot of big dips out to the west, so we will see down the road if some of those have an opportunity to move east. but usually our coldest air comes in from up here, not out in the pacific. the bottom line, kind of status quo right on through the next 10 to 14 days. northeast wind at 10 to 15 knots. the winds will come down in the afternoon. moderate chop on the bay 73 degrees. there are your tides. sunrise 6:48, sunset at 5:40. skies are partly cloudy waking up to mostly clear. sunny skies the entire day. we are going to top out at 80 to 81 degrees. here's a look at florida's most accurate seven-day forecast. 78 on friday and saturday. i do think saturday morning we are going to see a lot sphrifts. a great weekend for rib fest at the park.

>> reporter: the buccaneers' back field problems became a lot clear we are doug martin finally returning but is number 22 healthy enough to actually play sunday against the bears after not playing in almost two months? >> that is an excellent question, and i do not know the answer to that. that depends on the guy, who the guy is, the severity of the injury and how fast he comes back, how he looks in practice. >> reporter: martin looked back to his regular sifnl the 30 minutes allotted for media to watch practice. he seemed to effects of his hamstring injury but dirk koetter wouldn't he will lab bore fly. now we're crossing over into injuries and game plans. >> reporter: so there's still a lot about doug martin we don't know. the buccaneers back field will consist of james and barber. like they have shown all season it doesn't matter who is in the back field because the number one goal on offense is to establish a running game.

offense. that's the only way we really get things going. we have to establish the run. >> reporter: reporting with the bucs, john sabol, abc action sports. >> wide receiver mike evans continues to practice but he is definitely working his way back to playing on sunday. evans will have a concussion test and by the end of tomorrow we are going to know if's go for center joe hawley did return to practice. this guy has been injured almost every week, and he comes right back. willie taggart's usf bulls are ready to head to memphis. the bulls would love to follow up that win over navy with another w in a place they have had zero success under will lee. plus a win just keeps the season going that this group of seniors planned on four years ago.
