.DISCUSSION...

Dry conditions are forecast tonight into Friday as high pressure
remains over central Florida. As a diffuse east coast sea breeze
moves inland late this afternoon and early in the evening,
southeast wind gusts reaching 20 to 25 mph are possible. Winds
decrease after midnight to 5 mph or less, which may allow for some
smoke settling in the immediate vicinity of the wildfire. Minor
visibility reductions are possible along nearby portions of US-17
due to nearby smoke, but fog is not currently forecast.
