Monroe Upper Keys-
1010 PM EDT Fri Oct 3 2025
...COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT...
* WHAT...Saltwater flooding.
* WHERE...Upper Keys.
* WHEN...Until 5 AM EDT Saturday.
* IMPACTS...Saltwater flooding of low elevation streets and lots
is expected. Some storm drains will overflow, and some seawalls
and docks will be overtopped. Boaters can expect less clearance
under fixed bridges. Motorists should remember that persistent
puddles around the times of high tide are almost certain to
contain a mix of saltwater. Little improvement is expected at
low tide.

If travel is required, allow extra time as some roads may be
closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of
unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone
property.
