Melbourne Florida for 04-01-2024

Good morning, East Central Florida! It's time for your coastal waters forecast brought to you by the National Weather Service in Melbourne. I'm here to give you the scoop on what's happening out there on the beautiful Atlantic waters from Flagler Beach to Jupiter Inlet.

Now, let's dive right into it. We've got some favorable boating conditions early in the week as high pressure holds steady over our local waters. But hey, hold onto your hats because a cold front is on the horizon! Expected to roll in midweek through early Thursday, bringing with it some windy conditions, scattered to numerous showers, isolated strong lightning storms, and poor to hazardous boating conditions by mid to late week.

For those venturing out into the Gulf Stream, no hazards are currently in play. And if you're curious about the Gulf Stream's whereabouts, it's located approximately: 36 nautical miles east of Ponce Inlet, 28 nautical miles east of Port Canaveral, 21 nautical miles east of Sebastian Inlet, and 13 nautical miles east of Fort Pierce Inlet.

Now, let's talk specifics for different zones:
- Flagler Beach to Volusia-Brevard County Line 0-20 nm: Today, expect some southwest winds transitioning to the south and then southeast later on. Seas around 2 to 3 feet. Tomorrow, south winds continue at 10 to 15 knots. And on Wednesday, hold onto your hats as we see windy conditions with a chance of showers and thunderstorms.

Remember, winds and waves can get higher in and near thunderstorms, so keep an eye out for changing conditions.
