AMZ400-262145- Synopsis for Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm- 303 AM EDT Fri Apr 26 2024 .SYNOPSIS... A frontal boundary situated over the Georgia waters this morning will stall over the northeast Florida waters this afternoon before dissipating tonight. Meanwhile, strong high pressure building over New England and the Mid-Atlantic states in the wake of this front will wedge down the southeastern seaboard beginning this afternoon, resulting in strengthening onshore winds and building seas. Small Craft Advisory conditions will be likely on Saturday and Saturday night for the offshore waters adjacent to northeast Florida, with Caution conditions prevailing elsewhere across our local waters. High pressure will then shift southward while gradually weakening late this weekend, with this feature then becoming anchored off the southeastern seaboard for much of next week. Winds and seas will gradually diminish from Sunday afternoon through the early portions of the upcoming week. .GULF STREAM...
