Synopsis for Keys coastal waters from Ocean Reef to Dry Tortugas

the central North Atlantic today. This will result in mainly
light southeast breezes, potentially becoming variable at times.
A potent cold front will push through the Florida Keys marine
zones on Monday, bringing fresh to strong northerly winds by
Monday afternoon. While the next high builds in behind the front,
winds will shift out of the northeast and gradually slacken.
Moderate to occasionally fresh breezes will remain possible.
