Synopsis for the coastal waters from Bonita Beach to Suwannee River-
833 PM EDT Sat May 11 2024

.SYNOPSIS...
Dry and warm weather will remain in place through Sunday as high
pressure builds across the region. High pressure then shifts out
into the Atlantic by early next week as a low pressure system
drives a cold front towards the northern Gulf waters. Southerly
winds ahead of the cold front may approach advisory levels by
Tuesday with seas around 2-4 ft lasting into mid week. In
addition, scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected to
accompany the frontal passage. High pressure will lead to
diminishing winds and seas by Thursday.
