.NOW...
Through 7 pm, scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms will wax
and wane in the eastern Straits of Florida, Florida Bay, the Bayside
and Gulfside waters, the offshore Gulf waters and the Lower and Middle
Keys. These showers and storms will continue drifting to the
southwest to west at 5 to 10 knots. Mariner`s encountering the
stronger portions of this activity can expect bouts of heavy rainfall
reducing visibilities to less than 3 miles, wind gusts of 20 to 25
knots, and occasional lightning strikes. On land, expect an
additional few hundreths to couple tenths of an inch for the Middle
Keys with a few hundreths for portions of the Lower Keys, especially
near Big Pine Key.
