Synopsis for Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm-
134 PM EDT Tue May 5 2026
.SYNOPSIS...
Atlantic high pressure centered near Bermuda will continue to extend
its axis across the northeast Florida waters through Wednesday
night. Onshore winds will become breezy across the near shore waters
this afternoon and evening, and speeds will likely reach Caution
levels on Wednesday afternoon and evening. Otherwise, a cold front
entering the southeastern states on Wednesday night will shift
prevailing winds to southwesterly across our local waters, with this
front then slowing its forward progress as it moves across the
Georgia waters on Thursday night, followed by this front stalling
over the northeast Florida waters on Friday and Saturday. Scattered
showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop along and just
ahead of the frontal boundary across the Georgia waters on Thursday
evening, with a few strong storms possible through around midnight.
Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms are then expected to
develop throughout our local waters on Friday and Friday evening.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms will be possible during the
weekend as the front slowly lifts northward ahead of the next
possible frontal passage, which is forecast to occur by Monday night
or next Tuesday.
