GMZ700 Synopsis For The Suwannee River To Okaloosa-walton County Line Out To 60 Nm 224 Pm Edt Thu May 9 2024
Synopsis..
an atlantic ridge axis across the southern florida peninsula will retreat southward tonight. A cold front will slowly approach from the north on Friday, preceded by strong to severe Thunderstorms over the waters. Cautionary conditions could be possible Friday. The front will limp across the waters on Friday night. It will be followed by moderate to occasionally fresh northerly breezes on Saturday morning. Surface high pressure over the southern plains on Saturday will move across the southeast states on Sunday, causing winds to clock around. High pressure will move east into the atlantic on Monday, brining a return to south-southeasterly flow.
