Synopsis for Flagler Beach to Jupiter Inlet out to 60 nm
216 AM EST Thu Dec 11 2025

.SYNOPSIS...Poor to hazardous boating conditions today,
especially in the Gulf Stream, as winds and seas increase behind a
dry cold front pushing through Florida and the local Atlantic
waters this morning. Boating conditions improve Friday and most of
the weekend as high pressure behind the front moves over Florida
and then offshore into the nearby Atlantic waters. Boating
conditions deteriorate again late Sunday and Monday as a deeping
area of high pressure dives into the Southeast.

.GULF STREAM HAZARDS...West to northwest winds 20 to 25 knots this
morning, decreasing to 15 to 20 knots in the afternoon. Seas 5 to
7 feet through the day, possibly up to 8 feet at times.
