.NOW...

Through 2 PM, scattered showers and a few embedded thunderstorms 

will continue to move in a northward direction at 5 to 10 knots 

across the waters surrounding the Florida Keys. The strongest of the 

activity will be in the southeastern Gulf waters to the northeast of

S Tower. Mariners encountering the heavier activity can expect gusty

and erratic winds of near 25 knots, heavy downpours reducing 

visibility, and occasional lightning strikes. Island communities may 

observe an additional quarter to half an inch of rainfall.
