GMZ800 Synopsis For The Coastal Waters From Bonita Beach To Suwannee River- 311 Am Edt Sun Aug 25 2019
Synopsis.. Fairly benign weather can be expected across the coastal waters through the period. Winds will remain north-northeast 10 knots or less for the remainder of the weekend although a seabreeze will shift winds onshore this afternoon. Then on Monday, winds will shift to the west-southwest and continuing 10 knots or less through the middle of next week. Winds will increase to around 10 to 15 knots with increasing rain/storm chances through Thursday next week. So outside of any storms, winds should remain below 15 knots and seas 2 feet or less.

Prev discussion issued 311 am edt Sun aug 25 2019 discussion... the weak area of low pressure that has been over south florida for the last few days will begin to move further north today into the western atlantic. Chances for tropical development remain high with this system although no direct impacts are expected to our state as it will continue to parallel the us east coast over the next few days. Closer to home, drier air remains in place today which will help suppress shower and storm coverage once again today. Pops will be in the 30-50 percent range for much of the area, highest inland. The departing system will create southwest flow on Monday and with moisture increasing over the area (pws climbing above 2 inches) expect morning showers thunderstorms to develop before gradually migrating inland throughout the day. This SW flow regime will continue through Thursday as the bermuda-azores high begins to build back in on Thursday at the surface. The anticyclonic (clockwise) movement of air around the feature at the surface will cause winds to become more ese by late in the work weak.

Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
