Coastal Waters Forecast for Florida

National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL

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. The gusty northeasterly winds have started to come down and that trend will continue through the overnight hours. By Thursday winds will be down to around 10 knots and then 5 to 10 knot on Friday. A front will be stalled north of Florida for the weekend. This will cause our winds to slowly shift for the weekend starting out easterly Saturday morning before shifting completely to the south on Sunday. Winds will also be slowly increasing throughout our weekend returning to 10 to 15 knots by Sunday morning. &&
