Important notice to mariners...marine forecasts are issued at

least four times a day. Boaters on extended trips should

routinely monitor subsequent forecast issuances and updates for

the latest marine weather information.

Synopsis for the coastal waters from Bonita Beach to Suwannee River-

312 AM EDT Fri Oct 16 2026



.SYNOPSIS...

High pressure located between the Bahamas and Bermuda ridges over 

Florida and into the Gulf and will keep east through southeast winds 

around 10-15 knots over the eastern Gulf waters and scattered 

showers and storms for today. A cold front moves through the waters 

late Friday into Saturday producing higher rain and storm chances 

for all of the eastern Gulf waters. Hazardous marine conditions will 

set up over the eastern Gulf waters starting Saturday morning as a 

tight pressure gradient sets up over the region in the wake of this 

front producing north through northeast winds around 20-30 knots and 

seas up to 13 feet. This has warranted the need for a Small Craft 

Advisory starting Saturday morning and continuing well into the 

first half of next week. Conditions will be closely monitored for a 

possible Gale Warning as well over the weekend and into next week.

with an area of strong high pressure building in behind it.

Additionally, most model guidance shows the potential for a 

coastal low to develop along the cold front. This low has the

potential to linger off the Southeast coast well into next week,

resulting in a prolong period of elevated winds and seas. Gale

Warnings have been issued for a large portion of the local waters

to account for the first part of the surge through Sunday night.
