Synopsis for the Suwannee River to Okaloosa-Walton county Line
out to 60 nm
233 AM EDT Tue Jun 17 2025

.SYNOPSIS...

Light to gentle southerly to southwesterly breezes remain over the
northeastern Gulf through the middle of the week thanks to a
sprawling surface high in the western Atlantic. The high gets pushed
south Friday into the weekend, allowing more westerly breezes to
take over. Daily chances of showers and thunderstorms continue,
especially during the overnight and morning hours each day.
