...A WATERSPOUT WAS REPORTED EAST SOUTHEAST OF LONG KEY BRIDGE...
The areas affected include...
Hawk Channel and Straits of Florida from Ocean Reef to west end of
Seven Mile Bridge out 20 nm...
Bayside and Gulf side from Craig Key to west end of Seven Mile
Bridge...
At 1209 PM EDT, National Weather Service meteorologists reported a
potential waterspout... This potential waterspout was located over
Tennessee Reef Light, moving east at 15 knots.
Locations that will be affected include...
Craig Key, Alligator Reef Light, and Tennessee Reef Light.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
Prepare for thunderstorms with wind gusts near 30 knots, locally
rough and confused seas, occasional lightning strikes, and
potentially blinding downpours. Get to a safe port as quickly, and as
safely as possible. When downpours reduce visibility, slow down.
Environmental conditions favor waterspout formation. A waterspout
would most likely appear beneath a dark, flat bottom of a building
cumulus line, just at the hint of rain. If you see a waterspout, stay
away, and call in the report to your Florida Keys National Weather
Service, at 3 0 5 2 9 5 1 3 1 6 extension 3.
