Synopsis for the Suwannee River to Okaloosa-Walton county Line
out to 60 nm
326 PM EDT Thu May 30 2024

.SYNOPSIS...

Overall tranquil boating conditions are expected through Friday
morning, with small craft exercise caution easterly winds
developing around Friday afternoon. Easterly to southeasterly
winds Friday evening drop slightly to around 10 knots before a
nocturnal surge of cautionary easterly winds develops from
Apalachee Bay and surges westward towards the panhandle marine
zones by Saturday morning. This surge will possibly reach advisory
level winds briefly during this period. Winds look to calm again
Saturday afternoon and evening before another nocturnal surge
develops early Sunday morning. This surge will likely be the last
before more tranquil boating conditions return to the marine zones
through the middle of the work week.
