Details

Through 10 PM, pockets of stronger thunderstorms will continue to wax and wane across the nearshore waters adjacent to the Florida Keys, particularly near the Lower and Middle Keys. This also includes portions of the Southeast Gulf waters near Smith Shoal Light. Marine Hazards associated with the ongoing activity include gusty and erratic winds near 30 knots, locally confused seas, blinding downpours, and continuous lightning strikes. Most of this activity has been nearly stationary due to colliding outflow boundaries, but may eventually drift northward at 5 to 10 knots.
