Hey there, folks! Time for your Coastal Waters Forecast for Florida, brought to you by the National Weather Service in Miami. Let's dive in!

So, we've got some southerly-southwesterly winds on the horizon today and into Wednesday, picking up a bit due to a frontal boundary hanging out over the Southeastern US. Expect some showers and thunderstorms moving through each day, possibly bringing some higher winds and seas with them. Keep an eye out, especially if you're planning any boating activities.

Now, no hazards to worry about in the Gulf Stream, which is always good news. If you're curious, the Gulf Stream is currently hanging out just a few nautical miles away from some highlighted spots. Thanks to the Naval Oceanographic Office for the info!

For today's specifics, we're looking at small craft needing to exercise caution in certain areas. Expect winds mainly from the south, around 10 to 15 knots with gusts up to 20 knots. Seas ranging from 2 to 3 feet, so nothing too crazy. Showers are on the menu with a chance of thunderstorms to spice things up a bit.

Tonight and into Wednesday, those southerly winds will persist, so keep that in mind if you're out and about. Showers and thunderstorms are likely, so grab your rain gear just in case.

As we head towards the end of the week, the winds are calming down a bit, but the showers and thunderstorms are still sticking around. So, be prepared for some wet weather if you have any outdoor plans.
