Coastal Waters Forecast: A Detailed Look at Florida's Marine Conditions

The National Weather Service in Miami has released a comprehensive coastal waters forecast for Florida, providing mariners and coastal residents with critical maritime weather insights for the upcoming days.

A moderate south to southwesterly wind flow is currently influencing local waters, with expectations of diminishing winds as we move into Monday and Tuesday. The Gulf Stream remains stable, with its western wall located just offshore from key coastal points including Fowey Rocks, Port Everglades, Lake Worth, and Jupiter Inlet.

Maritime conditions vary across different regions. The waters from Jupiter Inlet to Deerfield Beach can expect south winds of 10 to 15 knots today, with seas ranging from 2 to 3 feet. Wave patterns show a mix of southwest and northeast swells, creating light chop in intracoastal waters. A chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms remains present throughout the forecast period.

Moving south towards the Gulf waters near Chokoloskee and East Cape Sable, conditions appear slightly calmer. Southwest winds around 10 knots are anticipated, with seas mostly under 2 feet. Thunderstorm activity is expected to be intermittent, particularly in the early afternoon.

Lake Okeechobee and Biscayne Bay will experience similar weather patterns, with light winds and a persistent chance of afternoon and evening thunderstorms. Sailors and boaters should remain alert to rapidly changing conditions near these storm systems.

Throughout the week, winds are predicted to remain predominantly from the southeast, with gentle speeds between 5 to 10 knots. Seas are expected to stay relatively calm, generally under 2 feet across most regions.

Mariners are advised to monitor ongoing weather updates and be prepared for potential thunderstorm activity, which can quickly alter wind and wave conditions.
