GMZ700 Synopsis For The Suwannee River To Okaloosa-walton County Line Out To 60 Nm 932 Am Edt Tue Apr 16 2024
Synopsis..
high pressure will remain entrenched across the gulf waters this week. Southeasterly winds will continue through Thursday with a slight uptick in wave heights to 2 to 4 feet west of apalachicola as a storm system moves out of the southern plains. A local area of high pressure sets up in the eastern gulf Thursday night causing winds to clock around to the southwest with wave heights slowly falling throughout our gulf waters. The next frontal system to arrive in the area appears to be late in the weekend.
