Synopsis for Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm-
225 AM EDT Wed Mar 25 2026
.SYNOPSIS...
Moderate to strong northeast winds and rough seas will continue
through the afternoon with some decrease in winds late afternoon.
Scattered showers and possibly a thunderstorm are expected through
the early afternoon mainly across the northeast Florida waters. High
pressure will then begin to build in from the north tonight into
Thursday resulting in winds lowering but seas will remain elevated
and rough at times. Another cold front will enter the southeast
states on Friday night, crossing our local waters by early Saturday
morning. Strong high pressure will again build to the north of our
area in the wake of this front, resulting in another surge of
onshore winds throughout our local waters and possible Gale
conditions during the weekend.
