Synopsis for the Suwannee River to Okaloosa-Walton county Line
out to 60 nm
955 AM EST Mon Nov 17 2025

.SYNOPSIS...

Light and gentle breezes will prevail through Wednesday, as high
pressure settles over the waters. As the high center moves east
and a low center approaches the Mississippi Valley on Thursday,
southeasterly and southerly winds will start to increase. Only
forecast concerns will be the possibility of near- shore marine
fog later in the week as southerly flow returns. The probabilities
would be highest across the Apalachee Bay where cooler shelf
waters could make fog development easier.
