Key Largo, FL Severe Weather Alertstar_ratehome

...COASTAL FLOOD STATEMENT REMAINS IN EFFECT...

* WHAT...Minor saltwater flooding.

* WHERE...Upper and Middle Florida Keys.

* WHEN...Through late tonight.

* IMPACTS...Minor saltwater flooding of low elevation streets
and lots is likely. Some storm drains will overflow, and some
seawalls and docks will be overtopped. Boaters can 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.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Strong to gale force winds north of the
Florida Keys are generating enhanced swell along the western
coastline of Florida. The swell, in turn, is causing elevated
waters along the Middle and Upper Keys.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Do not drive through flooded roadways.
