This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for the Florida Keys and
adjacent coastal waters.

.DAY ONE...Today and tonight.

Dense fog will impact Florida Bay and the nearshore Gulf waters
out to 5 fathoms early this morning with visibilities reduced
below 1 nautical mile, and a Dense Fog Advisory remains in
effect. The fog will dissipate during the early to mid morning
hours.

Small Craft Advisories are in effect for all of the Keys coastal
waters today, due to expected strong northerly winds and building
seas behind another cold front which will move through during the
early morning hours. Small Craft Advisories may be required for
parts of the Keys waters tonight as well.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday.

Small Craft Advisories may be required late Thursday into Thursday
night for parts of the Keys waters, and will likely be required
for all of the Keys waters Friday afternoon through Saturday, due
to additional cold fronts moving through the area and the
associated strong northerly winds. Small Craft Advisory conditions
may linger across parts of the waters through Saturday night.

Otherwise, no hazardous weather is expected.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation is not expected at this time.
