.NOW...
Through 6:45 p.m., areas of light to moderate rain will persist over
portions of the lower Straits of Florida, Hawk Channel, and extreme
southeastern Gulf of Mexico. The heaviest downpours will occur in a
corridor, within about 25 nautical miles east or west of a line from
20 nautical miles southwest of Sand Key Light, to Cosgrove Shoal
Light, to the Marquesas Keys. Heavier rain will reduce horizontal
surface visibility below one mile. Occasional light sprinkles are
possible in lower Keys communities through the early evening hours.
