Synopsis for the Suwannee River to Okaloosa-Walton county Line
out to 60 nm
851 PM EDT Mon Sep 29 2025

.SYNOPSIS...

Moderate to fresh north to northeast breezes will continue for
the next couple days with nocturnal surges resulting in cautionary
conditions. A cold front moves through the marine area Wednesday
into Thursday, which will increase winds to near advisory level.
The front stalls to our south, and the pressure gradient tightens
between it and the large sprawling high building to the north.
This will result in a prolonged period of small craft advisory
conditions with gusts to near 30 knots. Seas will also build from
2 to 4 feet early in the week to 5 to 8 feet late in the week into
the weekend.
