817 PM EDT Sun Oct 4 2026
.SYNOPSIS...
Showers and thunderstorms continue to push across the local waters
this evening. Outside of thunderstorm activity, winds and seas are
expected to remain below Caution levels through at least Monday
afternoon.
Deteriorating conditions are expected Tuesday as a cold front enters
and stalls over the area waters. Following the front, a strong high
pressure building will wedge down the southeastern seaboard,
initiating a prolonged surge of strong northeasterly winds and high
seas across our local waters. Small Craft Advisory conditions begin
in the southeast Georgia waters on Tuesday and gradually spreads
southward into the northeast Florida waters by late Tuesday. A Gale
Watch is in effect for Tuesday afternoon into evening for the
southeast georgia waters for potential frequent gale force gusts.
Northeasterly winds are expected to gradually decrease through
Friday and shift onshore next weekend.
