Synopsis for Keys coastal waters from Ocean Reef to Dry Tortugas
1030 AM EST Wed Feb 11 2026
.SYNOPSIS...High pressure off the Southeast U.S. coastline will
slowly meander east out across the Atlantic. This will maintain
gentle to moderate breezes across much of the Florida Keys coastal
waters through this morning. Thereafter, the high will flatten
across Florida, leading to slackening breezes with a couple
periods of brief light and variable breezes. Low pressure
developing across the ARK-LA-TEX region and high pressure off the
Southeast U.S. coastline will result in freshening east to
southeast breezes over the weekend.
