Synopsis for Keys coastal waters from Ocean Reef to Dry Tortugas
1019 PM EDT Tue Jun 30 2026
.SYNOPSIS...A frontal boundary will stall across central Florida
through Wednesday. This will keep winds light and variable during

evening and early portions of the overnight. Conditions will
remain favorable for a cloud line to develop over, or across the
waters adjacent to the Florida Keys on Wednesday. This may
support the development of waterspouts. High pressure gradually
builds back across the area Thursday with peaks and lulls
resuming.
