Synopsis for Keys coastal waters from Ocean Reef to Dry Tortugas
1030 AM EST Sun Mar 1 2026
.SYNOPSIS...
A weak high pressure system over the southeastern United States
will push southeastward across Florida today and tonight as a
weak trough pulls out into the Atlantic. As a result, light
breezes will pick up moderately out of the northeast. Thereafter,
a large and robust high will drive southeastward off of North
America into the Atlantic. This will usher in a prolonged period
of moderate to fresh breezes across the area through the remainder
of the forecast. A mix of cautions and possibly Advisories may be
required beginning around Monday Night.
