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. Another day of pleasant marine weather today before a cold front approaches the waters early Sunday morning. This front will bring a chance of showers and increased winds. Winds expected to increase to around 20-25kts Sunday afternoon through late Monday, hence a small craft advisory has been issued. There will also be a high risk for rip currents Sunday through Monday afternoon as well. Marine conditions begin to improve Tuesday, but winds expected to increase once again Thursday as another front moves over the area bringing showers and possible storms once again. &&
