Synopsis for Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm-
218 PM EDT Fri Apr 26 2024
.SYNOPSIS...
A frontal boundary along the FL/GA line has stalled over the
northeast Florida waters and will dissipate tonight. Meanwhile,
strong high pressure off the northeast coast will wedge down the
coastline beginning this afternoon, resulting in strengthening
onshore winds and building seas. Small Craft Advisory conditions
develop early Saturday for offshore waters making it to the inland
waters by the afternoon and into Saturday night. Caution
conditions prevailing elsewhere across our local waters. High
pressure will then shift southward while gradually weakening late
this weekend, becoming anchored off the southeastern seaboard for
much of next week. Winds and seas will gradually diminish from
Sunday afternoon through the early portions of the upcoming week.
