Synopsis for Keys coastal waters from Ocean Reef to Dry Tortugas

.SYNOPSIS...High pressure centered over New England will dive

breezes expected through at least Sunday. As the high weakens
somewhat south of Bermuda early next week, breezes will slacken,
although occasionally fresh breezes will continue through the
first half of the week.
The Approximate Shoreward Edge of the Gulf Stream is currently
unavailable.
