Synopsis for the Suwannee River to Okaloosa-Walton county Line
out to 60 nm
842 PM EST Fri Mar 6 2026

.SYNOPSIS...

Over the next several days, the coastal waters will be under the
influence of a subtropical ridge of high pressure over the Southwest
Atlantic. The main concern will be sea fog through this weekend
due to the warm and moist air mass over winter-chilled waters.
The ridge will maintain southeast winds around 10 to 15 knots
through the period. Daily afternoon seabreezes will prevail over
the nearshore waters. The next chance of precipitation is not
until midweek as low pressure approaches.
