Winds remain breezy out of the north around 15 to 20 knots through Thursday as high pressure remains over the waters. A low pressure system developing in the Gulf on Friday will shift winds to the the southeast around 5 to 10 mph. Scattered showers will be possible Friday night as the low pressure move across the state. This low pressure system is expected to rapidly deepen in the Atlantic resulting in winds quickly increasing over the waters on Saturday, with near-gale force winds by Saturday afternoon through the early morning hours on Sunday. By Sunday afternoon winds will slowly diminish but will still remain at Small Craft Advisory conditions through Sunday night.

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. &&
