Synopsis for Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm-
857 PM EDT Wed Jun 5 2024

.SYNOPSIS...

High pressure ridge will push further to the southeast of area waters
through Thursday and Friday. A cool front arrives Friday night and
will move south of the area Saturday and dissipate. Ahead of this
cold front, winds will be south to southwest and keep the sea
breeze pinned at the beach Thursday. This will enhance thunderstorm
chances in the nearshore waters late Thursday afternoon and
evening. Winds will turn offshore once again early next week as
another cool front approaches from the north and this front may
end up stalling across the local waters through the middle of next
week.
