530 AM EDT Thu Oct 10 2024

.Synopsis...

Tropical storm conditions will continue across the Gulf and Atlantic
waters overnight, and our Atlantic waters into tomorrow. While seas
will subside through tomorrow night along the Gulf, seas will build
quite significantly across the east coast as swell on the back side
of Milton opposes the Gulf Stream. Expect these seas to peak on
Friday and mostly subside by the end of the weekend.

Gulf Stream Hazards: Dangerous marine conditions into the weekend.

The approximate location of the west wall of the Gulf Stream as of
Oct 08, 2024...

  6 nautical miles east of Fowey Rocks.
 14 nautical miles east of Port Everglades.
  6 nautical miles south southeast of Lake Worth.
  6 nautical miles east southeast of Jupiter Inlet.
