Synopsis for Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm-
208 PM EDT Tue Jun 4 2024

.SYNOPSIS...

High pressure to the northeast will continue to bring
southeasterly winds across the waters with winds stronger winds
this afternoon with sea breeze development occurring across the
nearshore zones during the afternoon hours, through Thursday. Flow
turns offshore late this week as a weak cold front approaches
from the north. The front is expected to push into and through
most of the area waters Friday night into Saturday before
eventually stalling across local waters as weak high pressure
builds in behind from out of the northwest. Shower and
thunderstorm chances will increase across waters late this week as
flow becomes more offshore and chances for convection will
continue on into the weekend, building predominantly within the
vicinity of the stalled front.
