Synopsis for the coastal waters from Bonita Beach to Suwannee River-
825 PM EDT Mon Jun 24 2024

.SYNOPSIS...
The ridge of high pressure is shifting south of the waters
tonight, setting up weak westerly flow that will hold through the
rest of the week. This pattern will favor showers and storms
developing over the waters during the overnight and early morning
hours each day and shifting inland through the afternoon. Outside
of thunderstorms, winds and seas are expected to remain below
headline criteria.
