Synopsis for Keys coastal waters from Ocean Reef to Dry Tortugas
429 AM EDT Tue Jul 15 2025
.SYNOPSIS...Weak low pressure continues to become better organized
in the vicinity of the Space Coast. However, the overall pressure
pattern remains rather weak, therefore, light to gentle southeast
to south breezes are expected to continue today. In addition,
another round of showers and thunderstorms are expected today with
the main threats being gusty winds and confused seas near
convection. As the weak low pressure shifts off to the west and
into the Gulf, high pressure will build in behind it strengthening
the pressure gradient. This will lead to gentle to moderate
breezes tonight. High pressure remains anchored over the central
Atlantic with its western periphery extending into the Keys
through the weekend with gentle to moderate east to southeast
breezes continuing, occasionally becoming moderate to fresh.
