Synopsis for the coastal waters from Bonita Beach to Suwannee River-
234 PM EST Sun Nov 17 2024

.SYNOPSIS...

High pressure remains over the area with pleasant boating
conditions. Then, conditions gradually begin to deteriorate late
Tuesday into Wednesday as remnants of TS Sara move over the Gulf
waters, which will increase rain chances along with higher seas
and gusty winds. A cold front also move through the waters
following the Sara remnants. By the end of the week, the North to
NW winds will become gusty and will most likely reach SCEC or
advisory levels.
