A MOSTLY PEACEFUL MORNING FOR THE FLORIDA KEYS. KBYX HAS DETECTED
SOME LIGHT SHOWERS BUT THOSE HAVE REMAINED SOUTH OF THE ISLAND
CHAIN IN THE DISTANT STRAITS. ACCORDING TO GOES-19 SATELLITE
IMAGERY, IT IS MOSTLY SUNNY ACROSS OUR CWA. TEMPERATURES ON THE
ISLAND CHAIN ARE IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE MID
70S. ALONG THE REEF, WINDS ARE EAST TO SOUTHEAST AT 5 TO 10
KNOTS. FOR THE REST OF TODAY, SHOWER ACTIVITY COULD POP UP AS
THINGS CONTINUE TO WARM ALONG THE ISLAND CHAIN. AS RIDGING
PREVAILS THROUGH THE REST OF THE WEEKEND BREEZES WILL CONTINUE TO
BE EAST TO SOUTHEAST AND LIGHT TO GENTLE. OUTSIDE OF OCCASIONAL
SHOWERS WITH POSSIBLE ISOLATED EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS, IT SHOULD
PAN OUT TO BE A NICE SATURDAY!
MARINE
ISSUED AT 1102 AM EDT SAT MAY 24 2025
NO WATCHES, WARNINGS, OR ADVISORIES ARE CURRENTLY IN EFFECT FOR
THE FLORIDA KEYS WATERS. FROM SYNOPSIS, LIGHT TO GENTLE BREEZES
WILL FRESHEN TO GENTLE TO MODERATE ACROSS THE FLORIDA KEYS COASTAL
WATERS TODAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE NORTHEASTERN
CONUS, ALLOWING BREEZES TO VEER SOUTHEASTERLY. IN RESPONSE, SHOWER
AND THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL RETURN TO NEAR NORMAL VALUES.
MODERATE TO FRESH BREEZES ARE POSSIBLE EARLY NEXT WEEK.
