Synopsis for Keys coastal waters from Ocean Reef to Dry Tortugas
431 AM EST Tue Jan 14 2025
.SYNOPSIS...Light and variable winds will persist early this
morning as a cold front sinks south towards the Keys. Areas of
fog will be possible in portions of the Bayside waters and the
Deep Gulf during the early morning hours, but confidence is on the
lower side as it depends on how far the northerly winds associated
with the front can push it south before daylight. The cold front
is progged to cross through the Keys marine zones this afternoon
and evening, with a northerly wind surge expected in its wake.
Small Craft Advisory conditions will be possible for portions of
the Florida Keys coastal waters as early as tonight, possibly
continuing through at least Wednesday night.
