...A Few Strong Storms Possible across Interior/East Coast Areas...

This hazardous weather outlook is for South Florida.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT

Thunderstorms: Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are possible
across the interior and east coast metro areas of South Florida
today. The Primary impacts will be gusty winds, lightning strikes
and locally heavy rainfall.

Wind: Strongest storms could produce up to 45 mph wind gusts, and
perhaps greater in one or two storms.

Flooding: Heavy rainfall from thunderstorms, and repeated rounds of
showers and storms, can produce flooding in low lying and poorly
drainage areas, especially for the east coast where it has been
raining the past few days.

Waterspouts: There is a slight chance of waterspouts with any
thunderstorms and showers that do develop over the local waters.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY

There will be a chance of thunderstorms across South Florida
throughout the week. Gusty winds, locally heavy rainfall, lightning,
and waterspouts will be possible with the strongest storms.

A long period northeast swell from once was Tropical Storm Arthur
will also be increasing across the Atlantic waters of South Florida
late this week. This will allow for the Atlantic seas to become rough
especially over the Palm Beach Atlantic waters late this week.

The threat of rip currents for Atlantic beaches will also increase
towards the end of the work week into the weekend as winds become
more easterly over South Florida along with the northeast swells.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation is not expected at this time over South Florida.
