Synopsis for the coastal waters from Bonita Beach to Suwannee River-
228 AM EST Sat Nov 29 2025

.SYNOPSIS...

High pressure over the mid-Atlantic states ridges southwest over
Florida and into the eastern gulf waters producing rain-free
conditions through the weekend. Breezy east-northeast winds around
20 knots expected, which has warranted the continuance of the Small
Craft Advisory through this evening. Decreasing winds to around 10-
15 knots expected on Sunday and into next week. The next cold front
brings showers and storms to the area next Tuesday, but winds and
seas should remain below headline criteria.
