Melbourne Florida for 10-05-2024

Alright, folks, time for a quick rundown of what to expect out there on the waters of East Central Florida! I'm talking about the Atlantic coastal waters stretching from Flagler Beach to Jupiter Inlet.

So, looks like we're in for some onshore flow this weekend, with things ramping up a bit as we head into next week thanks to a tropical low-pressure system dropping by. Get ready for building seas and potentially hazardous boating conditions. Oh, and don't forget your rain gear because heavy showers and lightning storms are making a comeback soon.

For those venturing into the Gulf Stream, no major hazards to worry about at the moment. And if you're curious about the Gulf Stream's western wall, it's currently hanging out at various distances from a few inlets along the coast.

Now, let's break down the forecast for specific areas:

- If you're cruising around Flagler Beach to the Volusia-Brevard County Line within 0-20 nautical miles, expect increasing east winds today with seas ranging from 3 to 5 feet, maybe a bit higher at times. Keep an eye out for those storms brewing, though.

- As for the Sebastian Inlet to Jupiter Inlet stretch within 0-20 nautical miles, similar story with east winds and seas in the 4 to 6-feet ballpark. Showers and thunderstorms might join the party too.

And if you're planning a trip further out, like Flagler Beach to Volusia-Brevard County Line spanning 20-60 nautical miles, or beyond, pack your seas legs because seas could be rocking between 5 to 8 feet by midweek!

Remember, winds and waves can be a bit wild near any thunderstorms that pop up.
