NWS Marine Forecast


   GMZ700-081630-  Synopsis for the Suwannee River to Okaloosa-Walton county Line  out to 60 nm  316 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.    $$
