Synopsis for the Suwannee River to Okaloosa-Walton county Line
out to 60 nm
246 PM EST Tue Dec 30 2025
.SYNOPSIS...
Strong northerly breezes today slowly decrease tonight, then
become moderate tomorrow. Seas are likely to remain on the high
side even after winds slack off. Surface high pressure settling
into the Northern Gulf on New Years Eve into New Years Day prompts
moderate westerly breezes. Expect generally favorable boating
conditions to close out 2025 but as our next system approaches,
some increase to cautionary or borderline advisory level
conditions is possible Friday and into Saturday.
