080 FZUS52 KJAX 301712 CWFJAX Coastal Waters Forecast for Northeast Florida/Southeast Georgia National Weather Service Jacksonville FL 111 PM EDT Mon Jun 30 2025 Atlantic Coastal Waters from Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm. Seas are provided as a range of the average height of the highest 1/3 of the waves, along with the occasional height of the average highest 1/10 of the waves. AMZ400-010800- Synopsis for Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm- 111 PM EDT Mon Jun 30 2025 .SYNOPSIS... Atlantic high pressure will continue to extend its axis westward across the Florida peninsula through midweek as a weak surface trough settles over the southeastern states. This weather pattern will create prevailing south to southwesterly winds, with evening wind surges bringing speeds up to Caution levels over the offshore waters. Showers and thunderstorms developing over land will progress eastward across our local waters during the late afternoon and evening hours today and Tuesday, with a few strong storms possible. Stronger storms will be capable of producing briefly gusty winds, frequent lightning strikes, and torrential downpours. A frontal boundary will then sink over the southeastern states late this week, stalling near our local waters by the weekend. Waves of showers and thunderstorms will be possible later this week through the holiday weekend. Please stay tuned to the latest National Hurricane Center outlooks for any potential tropical low pressure development along this stalling frontal boundary late this week and during the upcoming weekend. .GULF STREAM...
