Marine
Issued at 429am EDT Wednesday May 8 2024

Overnight observations show SE breezes of 10 to 15 knots along the reef and at Long Key C-MAN, with seas at Satan Shoal running just below 3 feet. No marine headlines are currently in effect, but Small Craft Exercise Caution headlines may be needed for many of the marine zones tonight. From the synopsis, high pressure over the western North Atlantic will maintain moderate to occasionally fresh east to southeast breezes through Thursday night. Breezes will slacken and veer to the south and southwest Friday into the weekend, as the high shifts southward over the western Atlantic, and a weak frontal boundary stalls north of the Florida Keys coastal waters.

Climate
On this day in 2016, the daily record low temperature of 63F was recorded in Key West. This is also tied as the coldest temperature ever recorded in May. Temperature records for Key West date back to 1873.
