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

.DAY ONE...Today and tonight.

A Heat Advisory is in effect for the Florida Keys island chain
from 10 AM through 7 PM. Heat indices will peak near 110 degrees
this afternoon. This will cause increased risk of heat illness
for people outdoors or in non air conditioned spaces.

Atmospheric conditions will be marginally favorable for
waterspouts this afternoon and early this evening across the
nearshore waters around the Keys island chain. Waterspouts tend
to form beneath lines of building cumulus clouds, just at the
hint
of rain. Waterspouts can easily flip boats, and should be avoided
always.

Isolated thunderstorms will be possible today and tonight. The
primary hazards will be heavy downpours, locally strong wind
gusts, and lightning strikes.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday.

Daytime heat indices are forecast to peak near 110 degrees each
day from Saturday through Monday, and Heat Advisories may be
required.

Isolated thunderstorms will be possible through the period. The
primary hazards will be heavy downpours, locally strong wind
gusts, and lightning strikes.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation is not expected at this time.
