Marine Weather and Tide Forecast for Burnt Store Marina, FL

DISCUSSION
Issued at 212 PM EDT Sun Mar 8 2026

Strong ridging will remain over the area through Wednesday. This will keep the near record breaking high temperatures in place each afternoon with highs near 90 degrees away from the coast. However, our strong easterly flow is starting to break down. This will result in some isolated showers during the early afternoon near the coast but the highest chances will be inland in the evening as the seabreeze collide. The upper level moisture start to dry out Monday through Wednesday resulting in warm and dry each afternoon and evening.

Our next cold front, if you want to call it that, is expected to push through on Thursday. As it does do we should see a line of showers and storms push through the area sometime during the day.
This cold front will help to at least bring temperatures back down to average for Friday and next Saturday.

Issued at 212 PM EDT Sun Mar 8 2026

We are already starting to see some showers starting to develop along the seabreeze boundary closer to the coast. However the weakening east coast seabreeze today will result in the high chance of storms being in the interior and SW Florida. VFR conditions will stick around for the rest of today. However we could see some fog development across West Central Florida resulting in IFR and LIFR for a few hours around sunrise.
