Synopsis for the coastal waters from Bonita Beach to Suwannee River-
111 PM EST Fri Dec 5 2025

.SYNOPSIS...
Interaction between high pressure southeast of Florida and a frontal
boundary to the north will keep a predominant south-southwest wind
flow around 10-15 knots and seas 2 feet or less through Saturday
evening. A stray shower may be possible later this evening over the
northeastern Gulf. There is also a possibility of some early morning
fog over the eastern gulf waters early Saturday morning. By Saturday
afternoon and continuing into Sunday, rain and storm chances
increase as the frontal boundary slowly shifts southward. This will
bring scattered to numerous showers and isolated storms over the
eastern Gulf waters. By early Monday afternoon, the front pushes
southeast of Florida and high pressure builds in from the northwest.
This will clear out the rain chances, but will bring some hazardous
boating conditions with breezy north-northeast winds around 15-20
knots and seas up to 5 feet for the first half of next week.
Pleasant boating conditions expected mid to late next week with
winds less than 10 knots and seas less than 2 feet.
