GMZ700-111330- Synopsis for the Suwannee River to Okaloosa-Walton county Line out to 60 nm 235 AM EDT Mon Aug 11 2025 .SYNOPSIS... Maritime convection will flourish the next couple of days thanks to a tropical wave traversing the Northern Gulf. Locally gusty winds, frequent lightning, reduced visibility, and waterspouts will be the main concerns. Otherwise, gentle to moderate south to southeast breezes prevail into mid-week. Thereafter, winds turn more southwesterly in response to a ridge of high pressure building over the region. Showers and thunderstorms will be more diurnally driven, beginning over water during the late night, early-morning hours, then shifting to the coast with the afternoon seabreeze. $$ GMZ735-111330- St. Andrews Bay Waterways- 135 AM CDT Mon Aug 11 2025 .TODAY...East winds 5 to 10 knots, becoming southeast this afternoon.
