Synopsis for Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm-
739 AM EST Sun Nov 2 2025

.SYNOPSIS...

High pressure positioned over our area will weaken and move
northeastward this afternoon while a cold front approaches our
region from the west. Coastal troughing over our local waters will
develop into a weak low pressure center off the southeastern
seaboard tonight and will move north-northeastward, paralleling the
Carolina coast. The cold front will cross our local waters late
tonight, accompanied by widely scattered showers and possibly a few
thunderstorms. Northwesterly winds will strengthen in the wake of
the frontal passage late tonight and will shift to northerly on
Monday afternoon, with Small Craft Advisory conditions expected to
overspread our local waters. High pressure will then build into the
southeastern states by Wednesday, allowing northeast winds and seas
to gradually subside.
