Synopsis for the Suwannee River to Okaloosa-Walton county Line
out to 60 nm
337 PM EDT Wed May 29 2024

.SYNOPSIS...

Overall tranquil boating conditions are expected the next several
days to end the work week, with surface high pressure generally
remaining stationary over the region. By Friday evening into
Saturday morning, surface high pressure is expected to slide off
the east coast of Florida, which will impose easterly winds across
the marine zones. This will lead to nocturnal surges starting late
Friday night into Saturday morning, and is expected to continue
through the weekend. Winds will reach small craft exercise caution
levels during these nocturnal surges.
