A weak boundary drifting in from the north will increase the chance for showers and thunderstorms Friday through the weekend, and then a better chance early next week when a stronger front approaches. No headlines are expected at this time.

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.
