THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT.

.THUNDERSTORM IMPACT...
An approaching cool front will combine with local sea and lake
breeze boundaries to produce scattered showers and a few lightning
storms across east central Florida during this afternoon and early
evening. It appears the highest chance for storms today will be
from around I-4 southward to Lake Okeechobee and Tequesta.

Today's storms will move toward the southeast at 10 to 15 mph, and
will be capable of producing cloud to ground lightning strikes,
wind gusts of 30 to 40 mph, and torrential downpours of 1 to 2
inches in a 60 to 90 minute period. Move indoors to safety at the
first sign of threatening skies, or if you hear thunder.

.MARINE THUNDERSTORM GUST IMPACT...
A few storms will also be capable of producing wind gusts around 
35 knots over area lakes as well as the Intracoastal Waterway and 
nearshore Atlantic. Storms will move toward the southeast at 
around 10 knots today.

.RIP CURRENT IMPACT...
A Moderate risk of dangerous rip currents continues at the central
Florida Atlantic beaches today. While rip currents will be present
all day, the risk will be highest from about 930 AM this morning 
through 330 PM this afternoon due to tidal effects. To reduce 
your risk of becoming caught in the seaward pull of a rip current,
swim only within sight of a lifeguard, and never swim alone.

.WIND AND SEA IMPACT...
Northeast winds will increase to between 15 and 20 knots late
tonight behind a cool frontal passage this afternoon and evening.
these higher winds will cause seas to build to between 5 and 6
feet beyond 20 miles offshore north of Cape Canaveral by sunrise.


.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY.
Rough, choppy surf is expected along the Volusia and Brevard
County coasts on Thursday. A Moderate risk of rip currents will 
continue at all local Atlantic beaches through the end of the
week.

There will be a risk of isolated lightning storms through this 
weekend. The highest chance for storms will be south of Lake 
Kissimmee and Melbourne, and especially over the Treasure Coast
counties, where repeated rounds of heavy rain showers may produce
localized flooding in urban and poorly drained, low lying areas. 
Cloud to ground lightning strikes will also pose a hazard


.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
Spotter activation will not be needed today and tonight.
