Miami Florida for 06-19-2024

Alright folks, let's dive into the coastal waters forecast for Florida! Grab your sunscreen and maybe a raincoat because we've got some mixed conditions coming your way.

For those of you out enjoying the Atlantic coastal waters from Jupiter Inlet to Ocean Reef or the Gulf coastal waters from East Cape Sable to Chokoloskee, watch out for those moderate easterly breezes stirring up the seas. It's like nature's blender out there, so hold onto your hats.

Heads up, we've got a Small Craft Advisory in effect through tomorrow morning, so if you're planning a boating adventure, make sure your sea legs are ready for some action.

Scattered showers and thunderstorms might crash the party at any time this week, thanks to that stubborn high-pressure ridge hanging around. So, keep an eye on the sky before you head out.

And for all our boaters out there, pay attention to the Gulf Stream Hazards - seas could reach 5 to 7 feet by early Thursday. That's some serious wave action, so be prepared!

If you're chilling around Lake Okeechobee or Biscayne Bay, don't forget your umbrella as showers and storms could pop up unexpectedly. And if you're prone to seasickness, this might not be your week to set sail.

Winds will be playing around with speeds ranging from 5 to 20 miles per hour, so make sure to secure any loose items on deck.

For the nitty-gritty details, check out the show notes for more info. Stay safe out there, stay weather-aware, and always respect the power of the water.
