THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA.
DAY ONE
TONIGHT.
..THUNDERSTORM IMPACT
THE COMBINATION OF SUFFICIENT MOISTURE AND THE EAST AND WEST COAST
SEA BREEZE COLLIDING OVER THE INTERIOR WILL PRODUCE SCATTERED
LIGHTING STORMS FROM NORTHWEST VOLUSIA COUNTY TO LAKE OKEECHOBEE
BY LATE AFTERNOON. STEERING WINDS WILL TEND TO PUSH THE STORMS
BACK TO THE EAST FROM LATE AFTERNOON INTO THE EARLY EVENING HOURS.
COOLER TEMPERATURES ALOFT WILL ENHANCE THE POTENTIAL FOR STRONGER
STORMS WHICH WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING DAMAGING WIND GUSTS...
COIN SIZE HAIL AND DANGEROUS CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING STRIKE.
LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN WILL BE POSSIBLE DUE TO SLOW STORM MOVEMENT.
MOVE INDOORS AT THE FIRST SIGN OF A THUNDERSTORM.
..FLOOD IMPACT
NUISANCE FLOODING WILL BE POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON OVER AREAS THAT
SEE SLOW MOVING STORMS. PONDING OF WATER IN LOW SPOTS AND CULVERTS
WILL CREATE HAZARDOUS DRIVING CONDITIONS. SATURATED GROUND EXISTS
IN SOME SPOTS AND SLOW DRAINAGE WILL BE A PROBLEM WHERE HEAVY RAINFALL
OCCURS.
..RIP CURRENT IMPACT
A SMALL LINGERING LONG PERIOD SWELL WILL PRODUCE A MODERATE RISK
OF RIP CURRENTS AT AREA BEACHES TODAY. ALWAYS SWIM WITHIN SIGHT
OF A LIFEGUARD AND NEVER SWIM ALONE.
..MARINE THUNDERSTORM GUST IMPACT
STORMS WILL MOVE ACROSS THE COAST FROM THE MAINLAND THIS AFTERNOON.
A FEW STRONGER STORMS MAY CONTAIN WIND GUSTS TO AROUND 35 KNOTS
AND FREQUENT CLOUD TO WATER LIGHTNING STRIKES MAINLY NORTH OF PORT
CANAVERAL.
DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN
FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY. EXPECT SCATTERED
AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND STORMS EACH DAY.
