Through 400 pm, scattered showers and thunderstorms will wax and wane across
the Florida 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 a few cloud to surface lightning strikes. Rainfall amounts over
land should generally be less than one quarter of an inch.
