These storms will move generally to the west at 10 to 15 knots, although individual stronger cells may deviate from this direction. The strongest cells, mainly in the Straits of Florida south of the Keys, will be capable of producing occasional cloud to surface lightning strikes, wind gusts 20 to 25 knots, and blinding downpours. Over land, island communities between Marathon and Islamorada can see an additional quarter of an inch of rainfall. $$
