Through 900 pm, scattered showers extending across the Straits of
Florida 20 to 60 nm offshore the Florida Keys, as well as the coastal
waters extending out to 20 nm south of the Middle and Upper Keys,
will move generally to the southwest to west at near 15 knots. A few
showers may brush portions of the Middle and Upper Keys, leading up
to a few hundredths of an inch of rainfall. Mariners encountering the
stronger activity mainly in the Straits of Florida south of the
Middle Keys can expect bouts of heavy rainfall reducing visibility
and gusty winds up to near 30 knots.
