 Synopsis for Keys coastal waters from Ocean Reef to Dry Tortugas
 605 AM EDT Sun Oct 6 2024
 
 
 .SYNOPSIS...Light mainly southeast breezes will continue through
 the rest of the weekend, coupled with bouts of rainy and thundery
 conditions. Tropical Storm Milton will continue to intensify in
 the Gulf of Mexico, likely strengthening into a hurricane as it
 moves east northeastward across the Gulf and towards Florida's
 Gulf Coast early next week. Regardless of the eventual strength
 and track of the system, an extended period of above normal rain
 and thunder chances along with freshening breezes and building
 seas are expected for the Florida Keys coastal waters next week.
 Small Craft Advisories are likely and Gale or Tropical warnings
 cannot be ruled out.
