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. Small Craft Exercise Caution level seas are expected to develop over the offshore waters adjacent to northeast Florida this afternoon as a trough moves westward, increasing wind speeds slightly and generating scattered showers and a few embedded thunderstorms through Friday. Elevated seas will persist across the offshore waters adjacent to northeast Florida through Friday night. A cold front will enter the southeastern states late this weekend, likely crossing our local waters on Monday morning, accompanied by showers and thunderstorms. Strong high pressure building north of the area will then wedge down the southeastern seaboard during the early to middle portions of next week, likely create a surge of strong northeasterly winds and building seas across our local waters, with Small Craft Advisory conditions becoming increasingly likely for much of the week. .GULF STREAM. The approximate location of the west wall of the Gulf Stream as of Apr 02, 2026 at 0000 UTC. 50 nautical miles east of Flagler Beach. 53 nautical miles east of Saint Augustine Beach. 60 nautical miles east southeast of Jacksonville Beach. 71 nautical miles east southeast of St Simons Island.
