Through 800 am, isolated squalls with a stray embedded thunderstorms
wax and wane while moving northwest at 20 to 25 knots across the
nearshore and offshore waters of the Florida Keys. Mariners should
prepare for locally confused seas, visibility reductions in bouts of
heavy downpours, and wind gusts of 30 to 35 knots. Island
communities, particularly over Key Largo, may see an additional tenth
to a quarter of an inch of rainfall.
