...COASTAL FLOOD STATEMENT REMAINS IN EFFECT...

* WHAT...Minor saltwater flooding.

* WHERE...The Florida Keys.

* WHEN...Through late this afternoon.

* IMPACTS...Minor saltwater flooding of low elevation streets and
  lots is likely, mainly around the times of high tide in the
  Lower and Middle Keys. 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.
