Coastal Waters Forecast for Northeast Florida/Southeast Georgia

National Weather Service Jacksonville FL

Atlantic Coastal Waters from Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm. Seas are provided as a range of the average height of the highest 1/3 of the waves, along with the occasional height of the average highest 1/10 of the waves. Breezy southeasterly winds continue, reaching cautionary levels offshore through tonight. A weak disturbance will generate isolated to scattered showers through the rest of the morning with activity generally shifting inland late this morning. Southeasterly winds and isolated showers continue through the daytime hours Sunday as a slowing front approaches from the northwest. The front will bring showers and scattered thunderstorms as it pushes across the waters early Monday morning. Behind the front, high pressure building north of the area will wedge southward during the first half of next week, resulting in a surge of northeast winds followed by several days of strong onshore winds. .GULF STREAM.
