.SYNOPSIS...Strong to near gale breezes out of the south to

thunderstorm activity is out of the marine area, but lingering
showers and isolated thunderstorms remain in the cold fronts wake.
Moisture tapers off into the afternoon hours, but the strong to
near gale breezes remain in place. As a result, the Small Craft
Advisory is in effect until tomorrow morning. Breezes diminish and
veer to an easterly direction over the course of tomorrow
afternoon and evening.
The Approximate Shoreward Edge of the Gulf Stream is currently
unavailable.
