Synopsis for Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm-
130 PM EST Mon Nov 3 2025

.SYNOPSIS...

High pressure building into the southeastern states this
evening will shift northward over the southern Appalachians
tonight. Small Craft Advisory conditions over the northeast
Florida waters will continue through later tonight before winds
shift to northeasterly while gradually weakening during the
predawn and early morning hours on Tuesday. Caution level
northeasterly winds will continue on Tuesday for all but the near
shore waters adjacent to southeast Georgia. High pressure will
then shift eastward towards the Carolina coast by Tuesday
evening, allowing onshore winds and elevated seas to diminish on
Tuesday night. Weakening high pressure is then expected to settle
over our local waters late this week ahead of an approaching cold
front. This front is slated to cross our local waters on Sunday,
possibly accompanied by widely scattered showers.
