Synopsis for the coastal waters from Bonita Beach to Suwannee River-
1000 AM EDT Thu Jun 26 2025

.SYNOPSIS...

Winds will remain out of an easterly direction today as an upper
level low persists over the region. This will enhance convection
and bring some strong thunderstorms that are expected to move
over the waters off the mainland during the late afternoon and
evening hours. On Friday and over the weekend, winds will shift to
the west and southwest as the upper level low lifts north of the
area. This will result in showers and thunderstorms more during
the late night and morning hours.
