What is the weather like in Tampa mid March? Will I still need long pants and sweaters? Thanks :)?

Anywhere in Florida in March, the weather can be very unpredictable. I'm in east Tampa right now and I'm wearing long jeans and a sweatshirt. A couple of days ago I was in shorts and t-shirt. A couple of days before that I was wearing a winter jacket with a hat & gloves (ok, yes it is Florida but I'm a big wimp). A cold front can take a nice warm week down below 50 during the coldest parts of the day or night. You should bring both warm & cold weather clothing, that way you can be comfortable regardless of what craziness the winds do.

At night it gets cold but if you are from a cold weather place, you will not find it that cold. You should be fine with either pants or a long sleeve shirt at night if you get cold. Usually during the it is 70's-80's at night it might get down to the 60's..
