.NOW...

Through 1000 pm, widely scattered showers, and possibly an embedded 

thunderstorm, will track south to southwestward at 5 to 10 mph, 

from the Upper Keys and surrounding nearshore waters, to the outer

Florida Straits off of the Lower KEys. The stronger activity will 

produce wind gusts near 20 mph, blinding downpours, and possibly a 

few lightning strikes. Rainfall amounts of a quarter to one half of

an inch will be possible.
