Numerous showers and lightning storms will move quickly northwest across the area through this afternoon, with multiple rounds of showers and storms possible through the day. The primary storm hazards today will be occasional to frequent lightning strikes, wind gusts to 40 to 45 mph, and heavy downpours. .EXCESSIVE RAINFALL IMPACT... While storms will be fast moving today, any persistent bands or repeated rounds of heavier showers and storms will be capable of producing locally heavy rainfall of 2 to 4 inches. This may lead to minor flooding of urban and poor drainage areas. .EXCESSIVE HEAT IMPACT... Peak heat index values may still reach around 102 to 107 degrees through early this afternoon, but increasing coverage of showers, storms and cloud cover through the day will bring relief to the heat. .RIP CURRENT AND SURF IMPACT... A Moderate risk for life-threatening rip currents continues at all central Florida Atlantic beaches today. Always swim near a lifeguard, and never swim alone. .WIND AND SEA IMPACT... Poor to hazardous boating conditions will exist across the waters today. South to southeast winds 15 to 20 knots will increase to around 20 knots across the Brevard County and Treasure Coast waters this afternoon, with a Small Craft Advisory going into effect. The advisory will be expanded northward into the Volusia County waters tonight as winds increase to 20 to 25 knots. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY. Tropical Depression Four is forecast to lift north to northwest over the eastern Gulf of Mexico, strengthening into a tropical storm as it makes landfall around the Florida Big Bend area early Monday morning. Higher coverage of outer rain bands from this system will move northward across the area through this weekend, with heavy rainfall being the primary threat at this time across east central Florida. Generally, 2 to 4 inches of total rainfall are forecast areawide with locally higher amounts of up to 6 inches possible through this weekend into early next week. In addition to the heavy rainfall potential, a threat for wind gusts to tropical storm force will be possible in the outer rain bands, and a tornado or two can not be ruled out. Changes in the track could bring additional impacts to the area. Continue to closely monitor the forecast over the coming days for updates on this system. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation will not be needed this afternoon and tonight. Watson/Weitlich
