Synopsis for the Suwannee River to Okaloosa-Walton county Line
out to 60 nm
951 PM EDT Sat Aug 30 2025

.SYNOPSIS...

A frontal boundary over the nearshore waters this evening will
slowly settle further south into the Gulf on Sunday and Monday,
with light and gentle northeast breezes spreading across more of
the northeast Gulf. Northeast winds will continue into midweek as
high pressure strengthens to the north. This could lead to
periods of cautionary conditions, especially in waters west of
Apalachicola. The frontal boundary moves east Wednesday with winds
decreasing while switching out of the northwest.
