A front draped over the central Florida Peninsula will slowly drift southward tonight. Rain chances remain slight today, but peak tonight when the front presses through. Light to gentle NE breezes today increase to gentle to moderate breezes tonight. A Coastal Flood Statement remains in effect for all of the Florida Keys through this afternoon for minor saltwater flooding around the times of high tide. (Note: Bayside communities of the Upper Keys will likely see little to no relief from flooding even at low tide.)

A Coastal Flood Statement remains in effect for all of the Florida Keys through this afternoon. High tides will be around .75 feet above normal. Minor saltwater flooding of low elevation streets and lots is likely around the times of higher high tide. Some storm drains will overflow, and some seawalls and docks will be overtopped. Boaters should expect less clearance under fixed bridges. Motorists should remember that persistent puddles around the times of high tide are almost certain to contain a mix of saltwater.
