Synopsis for Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm-
223 PM EDT Fri Jun 6 2025

.SYNOPSIS...

Atlantic high pressure will continue to extend its axis westward
across the Florida peninsula through early next week, with this
feature maintaining a prevailing offshore wind flow across our
local waters. An evening wind surge on Saturday may bring speeds
up to Caution levels offshore. Showers and thunderstorms will
develop inland early each afternoon and will progress eastward
across our local waters during the mid to late afternoon hours
each day. Strong to severe storms will be possible late in the
afternoon hours on Sunday and Monday, especially across the
Georgia waters. Stronger storms will be capable of producing
briefly strong wind gusts, frequent lightning strikes and
torrential downpours. A frontal boundary will stall to the
northwest of our area towards midweek, with Atlantic high pressure
then expected to lift northward late next week.
