Synopsis for Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm-
1210 PM EDT Wed Jun 25 2025

.SYNOPSIS...

High pressure centered directly over our local waters will weaken
and shift southward this eveing as a surface trough develops over
the southeastern states. Strong to severe thunderstorms developing
along this trough over the Carolinas this late evening may sweep
southward across the Georgia waters late tonight. Damaging wind
gusts, hail, and frequent lightning strikes will be possible with
any severe thunderstorms that move through our area around or just
after midnight on Wednesday night. Atlantic high pressure will then
extend its axis westward across the Florida peninsula from Thursday
through the early portions of next week as surface troughing
gradually sharpens over the southeastern states, creating a
prevailing offshore wind flow. Afternoon and evening showers and
thunderstorms will likely push eastward across our local waters each
day during this period, with daily strong storm potential.
