Synopsis for the coastal waters from Bonita Beach to Suwannee River-
303 AM EDT Mon Sep 30 2024

.SYNOPSIS...

Light and variable flow has helped limit any marine hazards moving
into the week. Winds will shift more WSW to Easterly as the week
goes on and will gradually increase each day. All eyes on another
tropical system that could work its way into the Gulf of Mexico by
end of the week, which will once again disrupt conditions in the
Gulf. Currently, forecast confidence on this system is low, but will
continue to be monitored.
