Synopsis for the Suwannee River to Okaloosa-Walton county Line
out to 60 nm
912 PM EDT Fri Jun 14 2024

.SYNOPSIS...

The prevalence of tropical moisture over the Gulf keeps daily
chances for thunderstorms in the forecast. Southeast winds
generally 10 knots or less prevail through the weekend before
becoming easterly. By early next week, a tightening pressure
gradient between the Bermuda High and tropical disturbance over
the Bay of Campeche initially brings cautionary conditions to our
waters with advisory level and winds and seas likely on Tuesday,
especially west of Ochlockonee River.
