Storm's coming, Don't be a chump.

Rough day on tap for some parts, will have to see how TS Bonnie moves across. None of this is certain yet, it may wobble north or south a bit. Still for everything from Deerfield to Key West and up to around Naples, this is what they are currently predicting. Strong conditions and squalls could easily occur north of this area too.

Friday...Tropical storm conditions expected. Near shore...east winds 20 to 25 knots becoming east southeast 33 to 38 knots with gusts to around 55 knots...seas 5 to 7 feet building to 8 to 10 feet. Well offshore...east southeast winds 34 to 39 knots with gusts to around 55 knots...seas 7 to 9 feet building to 9 to 11 feet. Intracoastal waters extremely rough in exposed areas. Periods of rain and scattered thunderstorms (around 100% rain chance).

All the crap that was tossed at Kevin, here's your big chance to share the limelight worldwide. Head out and get your butt kicked by a nasty squall. You never know in advance what sort of winds it will toss out either. These usually aren't nice sustained winds, they're violently erratic with direction changes, massive gust ranges, real unstable stuff. Use your head, maybe sort your sock drawer tomorrow unless there is a huge, long lived clear hole over your area and your got the gear and solid experience in similar winds.
