Strong thunderstorms are still embedded within the line of showers
currently stretched across Hawk Channel. This line will continue to
move to the southeast, across the nearshore portion of the Florida

gusty and erratic winds of 25 to 30 knots, frequent lightning
strikes, and reduced visibility from heavy downpours.
