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. High pressure ridging across Florida and into the eastern Gulf will keep rain-free conditions, light southeast winds around 10 knots and seas 2 feet or less seas through Saturday. There is a low to moderate probability of some sea fog reducing visibility to less than 1 NM across inshore, nearshore, and offshore waters for the next couple of days.
