FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS...THE SURFACE LOW OVER THE EASTERN GULF
OF MEXICO IS EXPECTED TO MOVE NORTHWESTWARD TOWARDS THE CENTRAL
GULF COAST. FLORIDA WILL CONTINUE TO SEE PERIODIC SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS AS A MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIRMASS SITS OVER THE
REGION. BECAUSE THE DISTURBANCE THAT BROUGHT THE HEAVIEST OF THE
RAINFALL IS MOVING AWAY FROM FLORIDA...ORGANIZED AREAS OF HEAVY
RAINFALL HAVE ENDED AND ARE NOT EXPECTED TO REDEVELOP AT THIS
TIME. ISOLATED HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE POSSIBLE FROM THE DAILY
THUNDERSTORMS OVER FLORIDA THROUGH THIS WEEKEND.

THIS WILL BE THE LAST STORM SUMMARY ISSUED BY THE
HYDROMETEOROLOGICAL PREDICTION CENTER FOR THIS EVENT. PLEASE REFER
TO YOUR LOCAL NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE OFFICE FOR ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION.
