Synopsis for Keys coastal waters from Ocean Reef to Dry Tortugas
1021 PM EDT Sun Jun 30 2024

.SYNOPSIS...Tropical Depression 3 located in the southwestern
part of the Bay of Campeche will move inland overnight and
dissipates. The western periphery of the subtropical high over the
Atlantic will maintain modest control over the Keys. This will
result in mainly gentle to moderate breezes over the next few
days, occasionally light to gentle. Tuesday through late week,
breezes will freshen as the gradient between the subtropical high
over the Atlantic and Beryl (major hurricane) strengthens. Beryl
is expected to remain well south of the Florida Keys as it marches
west northwest through the Caribbean Sea. Please review the
Tropical Cyclone Advisories for additional information on the
track and future evolution of Beryl.
