Coastal Waters Forecast for Florida
National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL
Interaction between high pressure southeast of Florida and a frontal boundary over northern Florida will keep variable winds less than 15 knots and seas 2 feet or less through Saturday evening. A chance of showers will be possible through the day in the vicinity of and south of the frontal boundary. There is also a possibility of some early morning dense fog over the eastern gulf waters early Sunday morning. During the day on Sunday, rain and storm chances increase as the frontal boundary slowly shifts southward. This will bring scattered to numerous showers and isolated storms over the eastern Gulf waters. By early Monday afternoon, the front pushes southeast of Florida and high pressure builds in from the northwest. This will clear out the rain chances, but will bring some hazardous boating conditions with breezy north-northeast winds around 15-20 knots and seas up to 5 feet for the first half of next week. Pleasant boating conditions expected mid to late next week with winds less than 10 knots and seas less than 2 feet.
Gulf coastal waters from Bonita Beach to the mouth of the Suwannee River out to 60 NM. Important notice to mariners.marine forecasts are issued at least four times a day. Boaters on extended trips should routinely monitor subsequent forecast issuances and updates for the latest marine weather information. The wave heights are forecast as significant wave height which is the average of the highest one-third of the waves. The highest waves may rarely be twice the significant wave height. The winds and seas near thunderstorms may be higher than forecast. &&
