 Hazardous marine condition(s):
 Small Craft Advisory
   GMZ800-041930-  Synopsis for the coastal waters from Bonita Beach to Suwannee River-  302 AM EDT Sat Oct 4 2025      .SYNOPSIS...    Dangerous conditions for small craft continue today as gusty winds  of 20 to 30 knots persist, driving peak offshore wave heights  anywhere from 5 to 8 feet high. Inland waters will also remain  choppy to rough, especially in areas with high wind exposure. There  is a 20% to 30% chance for mainly showers across coastal waters,  primarily in nearshore and inshore waters during the afternoon to  early evening hours. While winds are forecast to decrease somewhat  tomorrow, seas will still take longer to subside; and even though  the forecast calls for lighter winds next week, the winds are  forecast to remain elevated enough that seas of 2 to 4 feet will  likely persist.    &&    $$
