EARLY AFTERNOON LIGHTNING STORMS AT THE COAST BECOME SCATTERED OVER THE INTERIOR MID TO LATE AFTERNOON AND MAY LINGER INTO THE EARLY EVENING BEFORE DISSIPATING. THE STORMS AT THE COAST MAY PRODUCE AN OCCASIONAL GUST TO 40 MPH AND CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING STRIKES AS THEY MOVE TO THE WEST AND NORTHWEST AT 10 TO 15 MPH. THE SCATTERED MID TO LATE AFTERNOON STORMS OVER THE INTERIOR HAVE A BETTER CHANCE OF PRODUCING CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING STRIKES... WIND GUSTS OVER 40 MPH AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN. OUTFLOW BOUNDARY WINDS INTERACTING WITH THE PREVAILING EAST TO SOUTHEAST WIND MAY TRIGGER ISOLATED STORMS OVER THE INTERIOR INTO THE EVENING BEFORE THE STORMS COME TO AN END LATE EVENING. .FLOOD IMPACT... LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN WILL ALLOW FOR ACCUMULATIONS OF RAIN IN LOW LYING AND POOR DRAINAGE AREAS THAT WILL RESULT IN LOCALIZED SHORT TERM FLOODING OF ROADS. AREAS FROM INTERSTATE 4 WEST WILL BE THE MOST LIKELY TO EXPERIENCE ANY SHORT TERM FLOODING AS THE GROUND IS STILL SATURATED FROM RECENT HEAVY RAINFALL. .RIP CURRENT IMPACT... A LONG PERIOD EASTERLY SWELL WILL CONTINUE TO PROPAGATE INTO THE COASTAL WATERS AND ENHANCE THE RIP CURRENT RISK AT AREA BEACHES. RIP CURRENTS ARE EXPECTED TO BE AT THEIR STRONGEST THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON DURING THE TIME OF THE MAXIMUM OUTGOING TIDE. ALWAYS CHECK WITH THE LIFEGUARDS AND BEACH PATROL ABOUT SURF CONDITIONS BEFORE GOING INTO OCEAN. .MARINE THUNDERSTORM GUST IMPACT... ISOLATED EARLY AFTERNOON STORMS OVER THE COASTAL COUNTIES AND SCATTERED STORMS FROM MID AFTERNOON TO EARLY EVENING OVER THE INTERIOR WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE WIND GUSTS TO 40 KNOTS ON THE NEARSHORE AND INTRACOASTAL WATERS AND INLAND LAKES. BOATERS SHOULD KEEP AN EYE TO THE EAST FROM THROUGH LATE EVENING FOR APPROACHING WEATHER AND SEEK SAFE HARBOR UNTIL THE STORMS HAVE CLEARED YOUR AREA. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY. A PERSISTENT EASTERLY FLOW THROUGH THE UPCOMING WEEK WILL ALLOW THE SEA BREEZE TO FORM AND PUSH INLAND EARLIER IN THE DAY... FOCUSING DAILY LIGHTNING STORMS OVER THE INTERIOR AND WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE PENINSULA. ADDITIONALLY...THERE WILL BE A MODERATE HAZARD FOR RIP CURRENTS ESPECIALLY IN THE AFTERNOON DURING THE STRONGEST PERIODS OF THE OUTGOING TIDE AT THE BEACHES. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... SPOTTERS ARE REQUESTED TO MONITOR THE WEATHER AND SELF ACTIVATE IF NEEDED. $$ WIMMER PALMBAYWEATHER.info
