Hey there, folks! Time to dive into those weekend coastal waters forecasts for Florida. Let's break it down in a way that won't leave you all washed up.
If you're cruising around Jupiter Inlet to Ocean Reef out to 60 nautical miles, or hitting up East Cape Sable to Chokoloskee, be ready for Tropical Depression Four stirring up some trouble out there. Tropical Storm Warning in effect near Chokoloskee to Bonita Beach, so batten down the hatches, mateys!
Wind speeds are picking up - we're talking 20 to 30 knots, with gusts up to 30 knots in some areas. Seas ranging from 5 to 9 feet, occasionally higher. So, if you're out and about, expect some rough waters and showers with thunderstorms likely, especially as we head into the evening.
For Lake Okeechobee enthusiasts, a Small Craft Advisory is waving hello starting tonight. Winds revving up to 15 to 20 knots, with possible gusts up to 30 knots. Choppy waters and thunderstorms dancing around, so stay safe out there.
And don't forget Biscayne Bay fans, Small Craft Advisory waving through Sunday evening! Strong winds, rough seas, and thunderstorms likely to keep you company.
Remember, safety first, especially with these wave heights and weather conditions. For more detailed info, be sure to check us out via the link in the show notes. Stay safe, Florida water lovers!
