This week

More moisture works its way back into the forecast by midweek, increasing rain chances from Tuesday into Wednesday.

Beach and boating

A nice beach and boating day is in store as we are seeing decreased winds out of the northeast, shifting northwest later in the evening around 5 to 10 knots.

The Gulf wave heights reach around 1 to 3 feet, with a light chop in our inland waters and bays.

A beautiful afternoon is in store, with temperatures in the upper 70s along the coast.
