Hey there! Time to dive into the salty waters and ride those waves of information. Here's your Coastal Waters Forecast for East Central Florida brought to you by the National Weather Service in Melbourne. So, grab your sea legs and let's sail away!
For the area stretching from Flagler Beach to Jupiter Inlet out to 60 nautical miles, we've got some choppy conditions ahead. North-northeast winds clocking in at 20 to 25 knots, with gusts up to 30 knots. Hold on tight because seas will be running high at 8 to 10 feet, easing off to 7 to 8 feet by tonight. It's a bit rough out there, so make sure you're well-prepared for the ride.
Now, let's zoom in a bit closer. For Flagler Beach to Volusia-Brevard County Line within 0-20 nautical miles, a Small Craft Advisory is in effect until 10 AM this morning. North winds blowing at 15 to 20 knots will whip up seas ranging from 5 to 7 feet, occasionally up to 9 feet. Keep an eye out for intermittent showers starting Friday and lingering into next week. It's gonna be a bit bumpy out there, so cautious sailing is key!
And remember, safety first – especially with those seas running high and those winds kicking up a fuss. So, gear up, be prepared, and always stay informed. For more detailed updates and information, check out our link in the show notes.
