Synopsis for Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm-
240 AM EDT Sun Oct 4 2026
.SYNOPSIS...
Southeasterly wind continues today with showers and thunderstorms
pushing eastward toward the Atlantic coast and into the waters late
this afternoon. Outside of thunderstorm activity, winds and seas are
expected to remain below Caution levels through at least Monday
afternoon.
Deteriorating conditions are expected Tuesday as cold front enters
and stalls over the area waters. Following the front, a strong high
pressure building will wedge down the southeastern seaboard,
initiating a prolonged surge of strong northeasterly winds and high
seas across our local waters. Small Craft Advisory conditions are
likely by Tuesday, with the potential for wind gusts near Gale force
through Thursday. Northeasterly winds are expected to gradually
decrease through Friday and shift onshore next weekend.
