GMZ700-171615- Synopsis for the Suwannee River to Okaloosa-Walton county Line out to 60 nm 103 AM EST Mon Nov 17 2025 .SYNOPSIS... Winds and seas will subside today, and more tranquil boating conditions will return through Wednesday as high pressure settles over the waters. As the high center moves east and a low center approaches the Mississippi Valley, southeasterly winds will increase by Thursday. Only forecast concerns will be the possibility of near-shore marine fog as southerly flow returns. The probabilities would be highest across the Apalachee Bay where cooler shelf waters could make fog development easier. $$ GMZ730-751-752-755-765-770-772-775-171615- Apalachee Bay or Coastal Waters From Keaton Beach to Ochlockonee River FL out to 20 Nm- Coastal waters from Mexico Beach to Okaloosa Walton County Line FL out 20 NM- Coastal waters from Mexico Beach to Apalachicola FL out 20 NM- Coastal Waters From Ochlockonee River to Apalachicola Fl out to 20 Nm- Coastal waters from Suwannee River to Keaton Beach FL out 20 NM- Waters from Mexico Beach to Okaloosa Walton County Line FL from 20 to 60 NM- Waters from Apalachicola to Mexico Beach FL from 20 to 60 NM- Waters from Suwannee River to Apalachicola FL from 20 to 60 NM- 103 AM EST Mon Nov 17 2025 /1203 AM CST Mon Nov 17 2025/ .TODAY...Northeast winds 5 to 10 knots.
