In the Upper Keys, little relief is expected, even outside high tides. Some storm drains will overflow, and some seawalls and docks will be overtopped. Boaters can expect less clearance under fixed bridges. Motorists should remember that persistent puddles around the times of high tide are almost certain to contain a mix of saltwater. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... Do not drive through flooded roadways. && $$
