Marine Weather and Tide Forecast for Wabasso Beach, FL

DISCUSSION
Issued at 244 PM EDT Tue Jun 9 2026

Now-Tonight...Temperatures are a degree or three cooler today, thanks to a fair amount of cloud cover lingering from this morning.
Some sunshine is making it through the clouds as a weak, diffuse sea breeze has started making its way inland. We have seen some showers across the adjacent Atlantic waters all morning, though very few have made it onshore. Through the remainder of the afternoon, partly to mostly cloudy conditions will persist with temps in the mid 80s to near 90 degrees (inland). An isolated shower or storm remains possible, especially west of I-95 and north of I-4. Temperatures tonight will settle into the 70s (near 80 at the coast) as isolated showers develop, mainly after midnight.

Near-surface moisture will be greatest south of the Cape, down along the Treasure Coast. With light steering flow and PW values of 1.8- 2.0" in place, some CAMs are showing locally heavy rainfall (1-2"+)
potential in a few spots from Sebastian southward. There is a chance that heavier amounts could fall just offshore, but this will be something to keep an eye on prior to daybreak Wednesday. Lightning also cannot be ruled out.

Wednesday-Thursday...High pressure slides east over the Atlantic, placing east central Florida on the western periphery of the surface high by Thursday. East-southeast winds (10-15 mph) Wednesday start to shift even more SSE Thursday afternoon and night. In this timeframe, models continue to disagree on the amount of available moisture, particularly from the Orlando metro toward the coast.
Farther inland, greater moisture and instability, along with a sea breeze collision, looks to support isolated to scattered showers and storms Wednesday afternoon. Weak bulk shear and warmer mid level temps appear (overall) less favorable for strong storm development; however, the combination of steep low-level lapse rates and water- loaded updrafts do make a case for not ruling out gusty winds and locally heavy rain. As is with boundary collisions, a non-zero chance for a brief funnel cloud exists, but higher LCLs keeps the tornado threat at bay. Again, the focus would be from mid-late afternoon through the early evening, near or just west of the Orlando metro where a sea breeze collision is projected.

Little change to the pattern is expected on Thursday as onshore flow continues and an afternoon sea breeze develops. There may be an isolated shower near/just offshore of the Treasure Coast in the morning, but this remains out of the official forecast for now.
Another round of afternoon/early evening showers and storms is forecast, especially for locations west of I-95, as the sea breeze collision takes place. Again, a lack of shear precludes greater storm organization, but a strong wind gust or heavy rainmaker cannot be ruled out. Temperatures trend warmer both days with less pre- convective cloud cover forecast. Conditions each night will remain warm and muggy.

Friday-Tuesday...Overall moisture builds areawide late week into the weekend as mid level ridging remains in place. Surface flow remains light and variable Friday, turning onshore with the P.M. sea breeze.
Light but offshore (SSW) flow is anticipated, prior to sea breeze development, beginning on Saturday. An offshore flow pattern looks to continue into next week as well. This slight change in wind direction would favor a greater chance for showers and storms closer to the east central Florida coast...especially Sunday into next week. The highest coverage will still be focused along the advancing sea breezes and eventual collision, with some push back toward the east coast in the evening.

Along with slightly higher rain chances and moisture comes hotter, more humid conditions. With highs forecast to reach the low 90s each day, heat index values climb into the 100-105F+ range. A Major HeatRisk could develop as early as Friday or Saturday, taking into account the fact that overnight lows/humidity offer little reprieve from daytime temps/humidity. This is something to keep in mind if you have outdoor plans this weekend, as staying cool and adequately hydrated will become even more important to avoiding heat-related illness.

High pressure remains in place, supporting favorable boating conditions into the weekend (outside of any showers/storms). East- southeast flow prevails through at least Thursday/Friday before gradually turning more SSW this weekend, prior to the afternoon east coast sea breeze developing. Moisture ramps up, especially Friday onward, leading to increased shower and lightning storm chances.
Nighttime rain chances continue with some activity drifting toward the coast at times. With greater offshore flow this weekend, some inland storms may drift east toward the local Atlantic. Seas generally 2-3 ft, locally higher in and around storms.

Issued at 735 PM EDT Tue Jun 9 2026

Line of SHRA with OCNL embedded TSRA slowly encroaching on KMLB- KDAB from the Atlantic waters. Cluster of SHRA/TSRA off the Cape has been persistent enough for at TEMPO at KTIX late this evening, and will need to monitor trends at KDAB. Additional coastal SHRA possible through the late evening into the overnight and Wednesday morning, and coastal terminals carry VCSH most or all of the late evening into the overnight and Wednesday morning. Morning cu- field could become MVFR at times before lifting/mixing. Less mid- upper level clouds expected Wednesday, but slightly higher chances for afternoon-evening SHRA/TSRA INVOF inland terminals forecast.
ERLY winds 5-10 kts this evening become light/VRB overnight, shifting SE 5-10 kts Wednesday morning, then backing more ERLY in the afternoon as a diffuse sea breeze develops. Onshore flow expected to keep most SHRA/TSRA west of coastal terminals by the afternoon.
