Synopsis for the Suwannee River to Okaloosa-Walton county Line
out to 60 nm
306 PM EDT Thu Jul 31 2025

.SYNOPSIS...

Gentle to moderate southwest breezes will prevail through Monday,
as the subtropical ridge nudges in from the Bahamas to the
southeast Gulf, and a summer cold front stalls north of the
waters across Alabama and Georgia. The front will wash out by
Tuesday, and lower pressure across the upper Texas and Louisiana
coasts will bring a more southerly wind to the northeast Gulf
waters.
