Coastal Waters Forecast for Florida
National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL
High pressure northeast of Florida will keep southeast flow in place today and Monday, turning onshore near the coast each afternoon with the sea breeze. Winds will generally remain less than 15 knots outside of daily thunderstorms. Tuesday through the rest of the week, the ridge will shift south and will extend across the Florida Peninsula into the eastern Gulf, bringing in drier air aloft with lower rain chances and keeping winds and seas 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.
