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. Ahead of an approaching cool front, onshore winds will veer southerly across the waters Today. The slowing front will gradually move north to south through the waters Sunday night bringing showers and isolated thunderstorms as the front stalls through Monday. In the wake of the front, high pressure will build to the north resulting in strengthening northeasterly winds Monday and the onset of a multi-day period of strong onshore winds throughout the upcoming week, likely requiring an extension to the current Small Craft Advisory. Much stronger high pressure will wedge along the coast Wednesday resulting in further strengthening and potential for gales and seas building potentially up to 15 feet across the waters. As high pressure breaks away from the eastern seaboard late in the week, onshore winds will begin to relax. .GULF STREAM. The approximate location of the west wall of the Gulf Stream as of Apr 04, 2026 at 0000 UTC. 54 nautical miles east of Flagler Beach. 58 nautical miles east of Saint Augustine Beach. 70 nautical miles east southeast of Jacksonville Beach. 68 nautical miles east southeast of St Simons Island.
