Current - Tonight
Deteoriating boating conditions into tonight. Easterly winds of 10-15 KT this afternoon, with occasional gusts to 20-25 KT possible will increase into tonight, becoming 15-20 KT overnight before becoming 20-25 KT with higher gusts Saturday. Seas 2-3ft today will increase to 4-5ft in the nearshore waters and 5-6ft in the offshore waters tonight, and 5-7ft on Saturday. Small craft will need to exercise caution across all the waters tonight except nearshore Volusia. Small Craft Advisory is now in effect for all the offshore waters starting 14Z Saturday, expanding to all the waters at 20 Z. Mostly dry conditions through the period, however local guidance is indicating isolated light showers/sprinkles will be possible through Saturday, mainly from Cape Canaveral northward as the low level moisture increases over the area.

Sunday-Tuesday (Previous discussion, modified)...Still looking at less-than-favorable boating conditions going late into the weekend. High pressure along the Eastern Seaboard gradually weakens during this time, while sliding southward to become centered off of the Carolinas. ERLY winds slightly decrease to 15-20 kts on Sun-Sunday night, and mainly 10-16 kts Mon-Tuesday while veering more SERLY (southeasterly) early in the week. 5-7 FT seas early Sunday will gradually / slowly subside Sunday afternoon-Tue. While conditions will remain mostly dry, cannot rule out isolated sprinkle/shower activity throughout this period.
