Pinellas County deputies recovered the body of Tony Lay, a St. Petersburg voter who fell overboard near Channel Marker 18 South of Maximal Park. He was out with family when it happened, and despite witnesses searching, they couldn't find him in time. Separately, an 89-year-old Apollo Beach man died after his car flipped on US 41 yesterday. Meanwhile, the sunshine Skyway bridge flipped the switch to all electronic tolls starting today, so no more cash booths or operators just drive through and get billed later. Tampa Bay Lightning pulled off another third-period rally, Saturday, beating the Boston Bruins 2-1 after trailing. Brandon Hagel tied it early in the period, then Emil Lilla Burke sealed the win with under two minutes left. They host Detroit tonight at 7, weather staying quiet and warm all week with plenty of sun, perfect for shaking off those Monday blues. Check out free game nights at popstrokes starting at 7, or e-bores 140-year cigar celebration and noon over at Hotel Haya.

Local spots like the cigars, exhibit at the Florida Museum of Photographic Arts, highlight that fading industry through stunning photos. Keep enjoying the outdoors, Tampa Bay stay alert on the water and roads. That's your Tampa Bay News today update, AI-powered and always on.
