THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA.

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.

.THUNDERSTORM IMPACT...
Isolated storm development will continue to be possible overnight
as a cold front continues southward across the area. Areas south
of Melbourne and Kenansville have the greatest chance of seeing
any more storm development, but confidence in this does remain
low. Any storms that do develop may be capable of producing
frequent cloud-to-ground lightning strikes, gusty winds 40 to 45
mph, and brief heavy downpours.

.HIGH WIND IMPACT...
Winds are forecast to increase out of the north behind the cold
front starting tonight, with sustained winds forecast to reach 20
to 25 mph along the coast. Wind gusts between 30 to 35 mph will
be possible, with the strongest gusts likely along the Barrier
Islands south of the Cape.

.RIP CURRENT IMPACT...
A moderate risk of rip currents continues at all east central
Florida beaches. Entering the ocean at night is strongly
discouraged.

.MARINE THUNDERSTORM GUST IMPACT...
Isolated storm development will be possible overnight, especially
across the local Atlantic waters and Intracoastal waterways south
of the Cape. Any storms that develop will be capable of producing
frequent cloud-to-water lightning strikes, wind gusts in excess
of 34 knots, and heavy downpours. Locally higher seas near storms
will also be possible.

.WIND AND SEA IMPACT...
Northerly winds will increase to 25-30 knots tonight as a cold front
moves south of the local Atlantic waters. Seas are then forecast to
quickly build to 6-8 ft nearshore and 8-10 ft offshore. A Small
Craft Advisory will take effect at 10 PM across offshore Volusia and
offshore Brevard, expanding to all east central Florida Atlantic
waters at 1 AM.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.
Behind the front, below normal temperatures are expected, with
overnight lows falling into the low to mid-40s by Tuesday night.
Wind chill values as low as the upper 30s are forecast Tuesday night
north of I-4.

A low pressure system will bring increased shower and lightning
storm chances late this week into the weekend.

A Moderate risk of dangerous rip currents is forecast to continue
through early this week.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
Spotter activation will not be needed tonight.
