.Discussion...
Winds rapidly freshened across the Florida Keys this
morning. While sufficient moisture for showers remains,
the increasing winds and southward movement of dry air
aloft will start to decrease the chance of showers.
Northeasterly gusts will be too strong to maintain any
possible cloud lines. There is high confidence that
breezy to windy conditions will persist through the
weekend.
