Synopsis for the coastal waters from Bonita Beach to Suwannee River-
829 PM EST Fri Feb 13 2026
.SYNOPSIS...
Dense fog has lingered over the Gulf waters most of the day, but is
slowly burning off and lifting. The latest model guidance is showing
a lower chance of development tonight into Saturday morning and if
any does develop, the northeast winds should keep it mostly away
from the coast and farther out into the Gulf. This will continue
to be closely monitored overnight. Otherwise, light winds of 10
knots or less and seas of 2 feet or less will remain over the
eastern Gulf waters through late Saturday evening. A slight uptick
in winds and seas expected early Sunday morning to around 10-15
knots and seas building 2-3 feet. By late morning on Sunday,
conditions begin to deteriorate more as a strong cold front
approaches the eastern Gulf waters from the west. Hazardous winds
and seas expected through the day on Sunday and into early Monday
as this front moves through the area, with a Small Craft Advisory
likely needed. There is also a Marginal Risk for severe storms
with damaging winds possible with frontal passage. The front moves
east of Florida by late Monday evening, with clearing conditions
and improving marine conditions expected. High pressure will
dominate the weather for the remainder of next week with rain-free
conditions, winds 10 knots or less and seas 2 feet or less.
