Seas are provided as a range of the average height of the highest one third of the waves, along with the occasional height of the average highest ten percent of the waves. AMZ500-310715- Synopsis for Flagler Beach to Jupiter Inlet out to 60 nm 300 PM EDT Fri Oct 30 2026 .SYNOPSIS... Poor to hazardous boating conditions prevail into tonight as a lingering pressure gradient keeps winds and seas elevated over the local Atlantic. Strong high pressure drifts into the Northeast U.S. on Saturday, tightening the gradient and freshening onshore flow. This will ensure hazardous conditions for all of the local waters this weekend. A disturbance arriving Sunday is forecast to increase coverage of showers and storms late this weekend. Boating conditions should slowly improve early next week. .GULF STREAM HAZARDS...Seas 7 to 8 feet. Northeast winds 15 to 20 knots.
