 Synopsis for the coastal waters from Bonita Beach to Suwannee River-
 113 PM EST Thu Jan 29 2026
 
 
 .SYNOPSIS...
 Winds and seas remain benign with no headlines expected through
 Friday. A cold front will then move across the waters Friday night
 into Saturday, with Gale conditions expected Saturday and Saturday
 night, and we could even see a few gusts to Storm Force (48 kts or
 greater). Winds will subside starting Sunday night, but seas will
 likely remain elevated for a longer period of time before they
 subside and so advisories may still be necessary into early next
 week.
