.Synopsis...

A moderate to fresh southerly flow across the local waters will
gradually turn southwesterly later on today and tonight, and then
become westerly on Saturday. This will be in response to a low
pressure system moving into the Southeast US and sending a front
across the Florida Peninsula. Chances for showers and thunderstorms
will increase over the weekend as the front approaches the local
waters.

Gulf Stream Hazards: None.

The approximate location of the west wall of the Gulf Stream as of
May 09, 2024 at 12 UTC...

  7 nautical miles southeast of Fowey Rocks.
 12 nautical miles east northeast of Port Everglades.
  3 nautical miles east northeast of Lake Worth.
  6 nautical miles east southeast of Jupiter Inlet.
