Coastal Waters Forecast for Florida
National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL
A chance of showers will be possible this morning in the vicinity of a cold front moving across the region. The cold front will push southeast of Florida by this evening and strong high pressure builds into the area from the northwest in the wake of this front. This will produce gusty northerly winds reaching Small Craft Advisory level by this afternoon and continuing through Saturday morning. This has warranted the issuance of a Small Craft Advisory for all the eastern Gulf waters including Tampa Bay and Charlotte Harbor. Decreasing winds to around 10-15 knots expected on Sunday and into next week. The next cold front brings showers for next Tuesday, but winds and seas should remain below headline criteria.
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. &&
