THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT.

.THUNDERSTORM IMPACT...
Any lightning storms that manage to form could quickly become
strong, capable of gusty winds and hail. The highest chances for
lightning storms in this conditionally favorable environment will
be from this morning through the afternoon.

.HIGH WIND IMPACT...
Northerly winds are forecast to reach 20 to 25 mph with gusts up
to 35 mph along the Volusia and northern Brevard barrier islands
after midnight. Gusty conditions will be possible across the
northern counties after midnight, as well.

.RIP CURRENT IMPACT...
A Moderate risk of dangerous rip currents continues at all central
Florida Atlantic beaches. Always swim near a lifeguard, and never
enter the surf alone.

.MARINE THUNDERSTORM GUST IMPACT...
Lightning storms over the local Atlantic waters will be capable of
gusty winds to 35 knots, and one or two stronger storms capable of
gusts over 35 knots will be possible, especially over the Gulf
Stream.

.WIND AND SEA IMPACT...
Poor to hazardous boating conditions continue across the local
Atlantic waters. While conditions will improve this morning, they
are expected to rapidly deteriorate tonight as a cold front pushes
through the waters.

This morning`s Small Craft Advisories expire at 5 AM, 8 AM, and 4
PM, with new advisories for all central Florida Atlantic waters
going in effect at 11 PM. Small craft should exercise caution
between advisories.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY.
Breezy to windy conditions along the Volusia and northern Brevard
coasts from fresh northerly winds behind the cold front will
continue into Sunday. These winds are also expected to produce a
southward flowing longshore current at the beaches.

Beach and marine conditions expected to remain poor to hazardous
through mid-week as the departing low pressure system produces
large, long period swell.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
Spotter activation will not be needed today and tonight.
