Through 3 PM, numerous showers and scattered thunderstorms will move
generally northward at near 15 knots through the near and offshore
waters surrounding the Florida Keys. The greatest concentration of
showers and thunderstorms will be from the waters offshore the
Marathon Humps through just offshore Molasses Reef, continuing
northward over the Middle and Upper Keys, and also in the western
Straits and Southeast Gulf waters southwest through northwest of
Halfmoon Shoal Light, including Dry Tortugas National Park. The
stronger storms will produce wind gusts near 30 knots, frequent
lightning strikes, and blinding downpours. Portions of the keys,
including the Marathon, Key Colony Beach, Tavernier and Key Largo
could receive up to an inch and a half of additional rainfall through
3 PM.
