High pressure to the northeast will continue southeasterly winds across the waters with winds strengthening with the afternoon sea breeze development across the nearshore zones each afternoon through Thursday.

That front should push into and through most of the area waters Friday night into Saturday before eventually stalling somewhere across the local waters as weak high pressure builds in behind it from the northwest. Shower and thunderstorm chances will increase across the waters late this week as flow becomes offshore and chances will continue into the weekend in the vicinity of the stalled front. $$ AMZ450-452-454-042115- Coastal waters from Altamaha Sound to Fernandina Beach FL out 20 NM- Coastal waters from Fernandina Beach to St. Augustine FL out 20 NM- Coastal waters from St. Augustine to Flagler Beach FL out 20 NM- 328 AM EDT Tue Jun 4 2024 .TODAY...Southeast winds 5 to 10 knots, increasing to 10 to 15 knots this afternoon.
