TRANSLATE SLOWLY SOUTHEAST ACROSS EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA THIS

TORRENTIAL RAINS WILL BRING ONE TO TWO INCHES IN A SHORT PERIOD OF
TIME ACROSS PORTIONS OF BREVARD AND OSCEOLA COUNTIES AND POINT

OF SOME ROADS AND LOW LYING AREAS.

A NORTHWARD FLOWING LONGSHORE CURRENT WILL EXIST TODAY. A
LONGSHORE CURRENT FLOWS PARALLEL TO THE BEACH AND CAN BE STRONG
ENOUGH TO KNOCK YOU OFF THE SANDBAR INTO DEEP WATER. ALWAYS SWIM
WITHIN SIGHT OF A LIFEGUARD.
...MARINE THUNDERSTORM GUST IMPACT...
SCATTERED STORMS PUSHING OFFSHORE WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING
WIND GUSTS AROUND 35 KNOTS.
...WIND AND SEA IMPACT...
A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT FOR THE OFFSHORE WATERS THIS
MORNING FOR SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST WINDS AROUND 20 KNOTS. SMALL CRAFT
SHOULD EXERCISE CAUTION NEARSHORE FOR 15 TO 20 KNOTS. WINDS WILL
BE DECREASING BY AFTERNOON AND SHIFTING TO THE WEST AND NORTHWEST.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.
RAIN IS FORECAST TO SPREAD BACK NORTH ACROSS MUCH OF EAST CENTRAL
FLORIDA LATE TONIGHT AND FRIDAY...AND MAY PERSIST INTO SATURDAY.
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE. MANY AREAS ARE
FORECAST TO RECEIVE A BENEFICIAL SOAKING RAINFALL OF ONE TO TWO
INCHES. HOWEVER...THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR A SIGNIFICANT RAIN
EVENT PRODUCING 3 INCHES OR MORE WHERE CONVECTION TRAINS OVER THE
SAME AREAS.
