Maximum sustained winds are near 35 mph (55 km/h) with higher gusts. 
Some modest strengthening is possible overnight, and the depression 
could become a tropical storm by Friday morning. Weakening is 
expected to begin later on Friday, and the system is forecast to 
degenerate to a remnant low on Saturday.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 1007 mb (29.74 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
RAINFALL: Rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches with localized higher
amounts up to 5 inches are possible through Saturday across portions
of the central and southern Florida Peninsula. This rainfall is not
directly related to Tropical Depression Two. Regardless, the heavy
rainfall could lead to isolated flash, urban, and small stream
flooding impacts.
