Synopsis for the Suwannee River to Okaloosa-Walton county Line
out to 60 nm
202 AM EDT Thu Jun 13 2024

.SYNOPSIS...

Generally light winds are expected through the weekend outside of
maritime convection with dominant wave periods of 6 to 7 seconds.
By Monday, cautionary easterly flow develops and likely increases
to or near advisory levels later next week as the pressure
gradient tightens across the Gulf. Seas should also build from
southwest to northeast during that time. The persistence of
tropical moisture keeps thunderstorms in the forecast as well.
