Synopsis for the Suwannee River to Okaloosa-Walton county Line
out to 60 nm
1044 AM EDT Sun Sep 8 2024

.SYNOPSIS...

Unsettled weather is expected to continue thanks to a lingering
frontal boundary draped across the Northern Gulf. High rain
chances remain in the forecast with cells capable of waterspouts,
locally gusty winds, lightning, and reduced visibility from heavy
rain. Otherwise, look for easterly to perhaps southeasterly
moderate to fresh breezes through midweek. There could be a few
nights where exercise caution conditions are met.

An area of low pressure is also being monitored by the NHC over
the Bay of Campeche and has a medium of high of tropical
development over the next 2 to 7 days. This system is forecast to
move north paralleling the Texas Coast while interacting with the
aforementioned front. Depending on the evolution, hazardous marine
conditions could materialize early to mid next week. Stay tuned.
