Coastal Waters Forecast for Florida
National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL
High pressure ridging over the waters from the Atlantic will keep rain chances lower and winds to around 10 knots or less today, although elevated seas will continue offshore as Tropical Storm Bertha sends higher swells east across the Gulf. Seas will subside tonight and Friday as Bertha moves further away and weakens. The ridge will shift southeast Sunday through early next week, bringing a shift to westerly flow.
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.
