THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR THE FLORIDA KEYS AND
ADJACENT COASTAL WATERS.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

No hazardous weather is expected at this time.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY

A high pressure system will expand and intensify across the
eastern United States and adjacent western North Atlantic Ocean,
from today through Friday. Freshening northeast to east breezes
across Florida Keys coastal waters likely will prompt issuance of
Small Craft Advisories for Florida Keys coastal waters zones from
Thursday night through Saturday. Northeast to east winds will 
increase to 20 to 25 knots across Florida Keys coastal waters 
Thursday evening, likely persisting through Saturday. In addition,
seas will build to seven feet or more in the Straits of Florida 
and portions of the extreme southeastern Gulf of Mexico.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation is not anticipated.
