.DISCUSSION...

Issued at 1045 AM EDT Fri Jun 5 2026

Scattered showers with occasional isolated thunderstorms have

continued on this morning throughout the offshore and nearshore 

waters of the Keys. GOES-19 Visible Satelitte reveals mostly

cloudy skies. Temperatures across the island chain are in the

lower 80s with dew points in the mid 70s making for a "cooler"

June day. Along the Reef, easterly breezes near 15 knots have 

been prevailing outside of slightly higher gusts due to 

convection. As the day continues on, shower activity is expected 

to start waning in coverage and strength and by tonight rain 

chances will be near normal for this time of year. Gentle to

moderate breezes will continue through the weekend.

.MARINE...

Issued at 1045 AM EDT Fri Jun 5 2026

No watches, warnings, or advisories are currently in effect for

the Florida Keys. From synopsis, an expansive eastern United 

States surface high will move off the Carolina Coast today and 

then push out into the Atlantic over the next few days. As a 

result mostly moderate easterly breezes, will gradually give way 

to gentle to moderate easterlies this weekend. The recent bout of 

increased shower and thunderstorm activity is nearing its end, and

convective potential will fall closer to normal through this 

period. Early next week the high will have pushed out into the 

Atlantic and weak troughing is expected to set up over Cuba and 

the Bahamas. This will tip breezes a bit further southeasterly 

with, initially, some additional slackening.

.AVIATION...

included if/when needed. Near surface winds will continue to be
