.NOW...
Through 730 AM, scattered showers and a few thunderstorms will move
northwest to northward at 10 to 15 mph, and be concentrated mainly
over the near through offshore waters south of the Middle Keys. The
stronger activity will produce wind gusts near 25 mph, a few
lightning strikes, and blinding downpours. Some of these showers and
possible thunderstorms will track over the island chain from the
Torches to Marathon. Additional rainfall of one half to one inch
will be possible. Elsewhere, isolated showers and thunderstorms will
be found over the near through offshore waters from Key West to the
Dry Tortugas.
