Tampa weather today is mostly sunny with a high near 85°F and light east-southeast winds around 7 mph — basically ideal conditions for just about anything you’ve got planned.

This afternoon through evening, expect plenty of sunshine with only a 2% chance of rain. It’s one of those rare April days where the humidity stays manageable and the sun feels genuinely pleasant rather than oppressive. If you’ve been itching to get out on the links, today’s your day — conditions are textbook golf weather. You might even grab a pair of Adidas Samba Spikeless Golf Shoes for just $42 with coupon if you need fresh kicks for the course.

For those heading to BTS WORLD TOUR ‘ARIRANG’ IN TAMPA at Raymond James Stadium tonight (April 25), you’re in luck — tomorrow looks even better with sunny skies and a high near 87°F. If you’re still hunting for tickets, check out options on SeatGeek or Find tickets on StubHub. Don’t forget Official team gear on Fanatics or concert merch to commemorate the show.

Tonight, conditions stay pleasant with partly cloudy skies, a low around 65°F, and minimal rain risk. It’s perfect patio weather if you’re entertaining — string up some outdoor string lights and set up a patio furniture set for an evening hangout.

Looking ahead to the weekend: Friday stays gorgeous and sunny with a high near 87°F — another stellar day. Saturday warms to 88°F but brings a slight chance of afternoon showers and thunderstorms, mainly toward the interior (away from the coast). This is typical spring pattern for us: moisture and heat building inland while the beaches stay drier. The National Weather Service notes scattered shower chances focusing toward I-75 and areas east of the Tampa Bay terminals, with lowest chances right along the coast.

If you’re planning tailgate parties or backyard gatherings this weekend, Friday is your sweet spot. Fire up the grill tonight or tomorrow — burgers, steaks, or grilled chicken with corn on the cob are perfect for this weather. Grab an instant-read meat thermometer and grill brush and scraper set to make sure everything comes out perfectly. For the Tampa Bay Lightning NHL Playoffs RD 1: Lightning V Canadiens Home Game #3 on April 29 at Benchmark International Arena, indoor conditions mean you can wear Official team gear on Fanatics with pride, and you’ll have great weather for pre-game tailgating with a portable propane grill.

For tonight’s dinner, this is prime grilling weather — fire up the grill and enjoy the pleasant evening. Need ingredients? You can order groceries on Amazon Fresh and have everything for tonight’s dinner delivered to your door.

Next 48 hours: Mostly sunny Friday, then Saturday brings isolated to scattered showers mainly inland. Sunday outlook improves again with warming temperatures continuing into early next week.
