Coastal Waters Forecast for Florida

National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL

High pressure will ridge across the waters through the rest of the week, with winds and seas remaining less than headline criteria. Thunderstorm chances will be limited, although a few isolated storms over the waters cannot be completely ruled out each day, mainly during the afternoon and early evening hours.

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.
