.Synopsis for Jupiter Inlet to Ocean Reef FL out to 60 nm and for
East Cape Sable to Bonita Beach FL out to 60 nm...

Generally light and variable winds will prevail across all local
waters today, gradually becoming more southerly overnight into
Tuesday as surface high builds over the western Atlantic. Wave
heights across the Atlantic should remain in the 3-5 feet range
today, but will gradually subside as the influence of the Nor`easter
diminishes. By Tuesday, all local seas should remain in the 1-3 feet
range. Isolated to scattered showers could develop at times each
day, which may result in locally hazardous winds and seas. Chances
for precipitation increase Tuesday onwards.

Gulf Stream Hazards: None.
