Hazardous marine condition(s):
Small Craft Advisory
AMZ400-302100-
Synopsis for Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm-
225 AM EDT Fri Oct 30 2026
.SYNOPSIS...
Strong high pressure over area waters will shift southward while
weakening slightly today. Another strong high pressure center
building southeastward from the Upper Midwest today will reach the
Mid-Atlantic coast by Sunday, with this feature wedging down the
southeastern seaboard this weekend and early next week. Although a
slight lull in winds and seas is expected through tonight, the surge
is likely to strengthen hazards once again for the weekend. A wavy
stationary frontal boundary lifting slowly northward across the
Florida peninsula this weekend may generate numerous showers and a
few embedded thunderstorms on Sunday and Monday across our local
waters.
