Coastal Waters Forecast for Florida

National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL

High pressure will move off into the Atlantic on our Tuesday. This will keep our winds out of the northeast today with speeds around 5 to 10 knots. As high pressure shifts south we will also be seeing the winds doing the same thing. From Wednesday through Saturday we will see winds out of the south between 5 to 10 knots.

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. &&
