Synopsis for Keys coastal waters from Ocean Reef to Dry Tortugas
1017 AM EDT Sat Jun 13 2026
.SYNOPSIS...Light to gentle east to southeasterly breezes will
persist across the Florida Keys this afternoon. The combination
of a well-developed mid-latitude trough over the eastern United
States and a weak disturbance over the Bay of Campeche weakened
the ridge over the Caribbean Sea. Breezes are on track to veer
southeast to south late in the weekend and early next week.
