Tuesday forecast update: Grand Prix of St. Petersburg

3/8/2016

There is still a lot of uncertainty in the forecast for the Grand Prix of St. Petersburg today. With timing of rain still up in the air, I have not made too many changes from the previous forecast. There is a slight trend toward a later arrival of showers and thunderstorms, and to account for this, I've added a 20% chance of rain on Sunday. The best chance of rain still appears to be on Saturday afternoon and night, but I have to mention the possibility of showers on Sunday if the trend toward slower timing continues. 

Another issue over the event is the wind. Sustained winds will be 10 to 20 mph Thursday through Saturday, with occasional gusts up to 30 mph. This will create a pretty stout crosswind on the runway portion of the track. 

Temperatures will be warm to start the events, with plentiful sunshine providing highs around 80 on Thursday and Friday. With more cloud cover, temperatures will be slightly cooler Saturday and Sunday, with highs in the mid to upper 70s.
