The wider storm

Numerous gale-force wind gusts were recorded in association with showers and thunderstorms as a tropical wave moved slowly west through the Florida Keys. The tropical wave became amplified due to a middle-to-upper level trough of low pressure progressing westward in advance.

Began near Smith Shoal Light (24.7200, -81.9200).
