Synopsis for Keys coastal waters from Ocean Reef to Dry Tortugas
446 PM EDT Wed Oct 7 2026

.SYNOPSIS...Tropical Storm Isaias, currently over the southwestern
Gulf waters, is expected to move towards the North Gulf Coast 
over the next few days, strengthening as it does so. A cold front 
currently draped across north-central Florida will slowly press 
southward infringing on the surface ridge to its south. In doing 
so, these systems will act in tandem and create a tightening 
pressure gradient across the Keys, resulting in freshening mainly
southeast breezes as we head into the weekend. In addition, 
moisture will also be on the rise leading to higher rain and 
thunder chances. Any showers and storms will be capable of causing
hazardous marine conditions through the weekend.
