Synopsis for Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm-
159 AM EDT Thu Jun 13 2024

.SYNOPSIS...

A weak tropical low will shift offshore by the early morning hours
and slowly organize offshore of the southeast coast through the
rest of this week. See the latest NHC outlook for details on the
low. Breezy east to northeast winds over the local waters as high
pressure remains to the north of the area. A stalled front over
the waters will allow for showers and thunderstorms over the
waters through Friday. Stronger high pressure will build south
from Eastern great lakes on Saturday and push the frontal boundary
south of the local waters with decreasing chances for showers and
thunderstorms. Light easterly winds Saturday will become breezy
on Sunday into early next week as the high builds down the eastern
seaboard and then shifts northeast of the region next week.
