Synopsis for Flagler Beach to Jupiter Inlet out to 60 nm
934 PM EDT Wed Jul 29 2026

.SYNOPSIS...The Atlantic ridge axis will remain well to the east-
southeast of the local waters into this weekend as low pressure
moves off of the Mid-Atlantic seaboard. A tightening pressure
gradient will increase southwesterly flow through Thursday, which
will in turn deteriorate boating conditions, especially offshore.
Shower and lightning storm chances increase Thursday through the
weekend. There is the potential for isolated strong storms each
day, especially during the afternoons. The potential exists for
isolated strong storms tonight. Mariners should keep an eye to
the western sky for approaching storms.

.GULF STREAM HAZARDS...Southwest winds 15 to 20 knots.
