...STRONG FRONT TO BRING COLDEST WEATHER OF THE SEASON THROUGH THURSDAY...
...DANGEROUS WIND CHILLS NORTHWEST INTERIOR TONIGHT...
...DETERIORATING CONDITIONS ON LOCAL COASTAL WATERS TONIGHT...
...FREEZE EXPECTED MOST OF SOUTH FLORIDA EARLY THURSDAY MORNING...

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR SOUTH FLORIDA.

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT

WIND: SUSTAINED NORTHWEST WINDS OF 20 TO 25 KNOTS, WITH GUSTS IN
EXCESS OF GALE FORCE, WILL SPREAD SOUTHWARD ACROSS THE LOCAL COASTAL
WATERS BEHIND A COLD FRONT WHICH HAS PASSED THROUGH THE REGION.

TEMPERATURES: RAPIDLY FALLING TEMPERATURES AND STRONG NORTHWEST
WINDS WILL CREATE APPARENT TEMPERATURES LOWER THAN 45 DEGREES
ACROSS ALL OF SOUTH FLORIDA BY WEDNESDAY MORNING, WITH APPARENT
TEMPERATURES IN THE 30 TO 35 DEGREE RANGE ACROSS PART OF THE REGION
AROUND LAKE OKEECHOBEE.

WAVES: AS VERY STRONG NORTHWEST WINDS SPREAD ACROSS THE COASTAL
WATERS, SEAS WILL RESPOND BY BUILDING TO 10 TO 12 FEET ACROSS THE
GULF STREAM BY WEDNESDAY MORNING. SEAS IN THE OFF SHORE GULF
WATERS WILL BUILD TO 6 TO 8 FEET.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY

STRONG NORTH WINDS AND COLD TEMPERATURES WILL BE THE PRIMARY
HAZARDS FROM WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY, AS THE COLDEST AIRMASS
OF THE SEASON WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD ACROSS THE AREA DURING THE
DAY ON WEDNESDAY. RECORD LOW TEMPERATURES ARE LIKELY FOR THE
MOST OF THE AREA ON THURSDAY MORNING, WITH A FREEZE LIKELY FOR ALL
OF SOUTH FLORIDA INCLUDING WESTERN PARTS OF THE EAST COAST METRO AREAS.
A PROLONGED PERIOD OF SUBFREEZING TEMPERATURES IS MOST LIKELY FOR
GLADES AND HENDRY COUNTIES, AS WELL AS INTERIOR PORTIONS OF
COLLIER AND PALM BEACH COUNTIES, WHERE A HARD FREEZE MAY OCCUR.
ADDITIONALLY, SUSTAINED NORTH WINDS RANGING FROM 5 TO 10 MPH
ACROSS THE INTERIOR TO 10 TO 15 MPH ALONG BOTH COASTS WILL RESULT
IN DANGEROUSLY LOW WIND CHILL VALUES IN THE 20 TO 30 DEGREE RANGE
FOR ALL OF SOUTH FLORIDA ON THURSDAY MORNING, WITH WIND CHILLS AS
LOW AS 15 DEGREES POSSIBLE ACROSS GLADES AND HENDRY COUNTIES.

FINALLY, NORTH TO NORTHEAST WINDS FROM 20 TO 25 KNOTS WITH HIGHER
GUSTS WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE LOCAL COASTAL WATERS THROUGH
FRIDAY, BEFORE WEAKENING. VERY ROUGH SEAS AND SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORIES WILL BE LIKELY THROUGHOUT THIS PERIOD. AS THE STRONG
WINDS SHIFT TO THE EAST LATE THIS WEEK, THE THREAT FOR RIP
CURRENTS WILL INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY ALONG THE ATLANTIC COAST
BEACHES.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION IS NOT ANTICIPATED TONIGHT.
