.NOW...
Through 230 pm, scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue
grow in coverage and intensity across the Lower and Middle Keys as
well as the adjacent nearshore and offshore coastal waters. This
activity will move generally to the northwest near 15 knots. Mariners
encountering the stronger activity can expect wind gusts up to 30
knots, reduced visibilities in heavy downpours, and occasional cloud
to surface lightning strikes. Over land, most island communities
between Key West and Marathon may see rainfall amounts up to one half
an inch.
