THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA.
.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.
.THUNDERSTORM IMPACT...

A high risk of dangerous rip currents now exists at all central
Florida Atlantic beaches. Entering the water is discouraged. Heed

Isolated lightning storms over marine areas later this afternoon
and tonight may produce gusts in excess of 34 knots and occasional
cloud-to-water lightning strikes.
.FIRE WEATHER IMPACT...
Sensitive fire weather conditions will continue this afternoon,
especially due to the continued dry conditions. Also, isolated
lightning storms are possible in the afternoon and early evening,

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
Rip currents are powerful channels of water flowing quickly away
from shore, which occur most often at low spots or breaks in the
sandbar and in the vicinity of structures such as jetties and
piers. Heed the advice of lifeguards, beach patrol flags and
signs.
If caught in a rip current, relax and float. Don`t swim against
the current. If able, swim in a direction following the shoreline.
If unable to escape, face the shore and call or wave for help.
