AMZ500-040715- Synopsis for Flagler Beach to Jupiter Inlet out to 60 nm 131 PM EST Tue Nov 3 2026 .SYNOPSIS...Moderate to fresh onshore flow continues on the southern flank of a strong surface high to the north of Florida. This is causing rough seas and hazardous boating conditions. As the high weakens from Wednesday into late this week, winds are forecast to decrease, allowing seas to subside, especially nearshore. Low pressure in the Atlantic, to the northeast of the Bahamas, is forecast to send a long-period swell toward the local waters from Friday night into the weekend. This may cause hazardous conditions, especially near inlets. A weak cold front may drift over the waters late Friday into Saturday with little to no impact. .GULF STREAM HAZARDS...Seas 6 to 8 feet.
