Synopsis for the Suwannee River to Okaloosa-Walton county Line
out to 60 nm
120 AM EDT Wed Jul 2 2025

.SYNOPSIS...

Light to moderate westerly to southwesterly breezes continue
across the northeastern Gulf thanks to high pressure anchored in
the Atlantic. A weakening cold front approaches today into
Thursday and will increase westerly breezes for the middle of the
week. A weak area of low pressure may develop along the tail end
of the remnant front over the northeastern Gulf Friday or
Saturday. Otherwise, late night and early morning thunderstorms
are expected the next several days; they`ll come with gusty winds,
lightning, and the potential for waterspouts.
