Ongoing showers and storms this morning across the coastal waters as a cold front moves into the region. A few of these storms could produce gusty winds up to 30 kts this morning. We also have a moderate chance for fog development this morning. Drier conditions will start to move in later today as the front passes. Winds will shift to the north later today but will remain around 10 kts or so.

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.
