NWS Marine Forecast


   AMZ101-120815-  Synopsis for the SW N Atlantic including the Bahamas  308 PM EST Wed Dec 11 2024      .SYNOPSIS...Fresh to strong southerly winds will continue to  affect the NE Florida offshore waters ahead of the next cold  front forecast to enter the basin later this afternoon. Frequent  gust to gale-force and rough seas are expected ahead of the front  while minimal gale force winds and rough seas will follow the  front through this evening. The front will reach from 31N69W to  23N78W Thu afternoon, and 31N68W to 21.5N75W Fri afternoon while  weakening. Strong high pressure in the wake of the front will  tighten the pressure gradient against an approaching surface  trough from the east. In addition, strong high pressure also  follows the trough. This weather pattern will lead to the  continuation of strong to near gale-force winds and rough  seas across most of the region through the weekend.    $$
