.DISCUSSION...STRONG HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED OVER THE MID ATLANTIC
STATES HAS INCREASED THE PRESSURE GRADIENT ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA. THE
RESULT IS AN EAST WIND...SUSTAINED AROUND 15 MPH...WITH EXPECTED
GUSTS INTO THE MID 20S. THIS WILL OCCUR ALL DAY AND INTO THIS
EVENING. SOME STRAY SHOWERS MAY MOVE ONSHORE FROM THE ATLANTIC BUT
CURRENTLY THE PALM BEACH RADAR INDICATES NOTHING. ANY RAINFALL THAT
WOULD FALL WOULD BE MINIMAL DUE TO THE RAPID MOVEMENT OF THE SHOWERS.
NO FOG EXPECTED TONIGHT AS WINDS WILL REMAIN ELEVATED.
