Moisture associated with a tropical wave will continue to bring 🌦️ scattered showers and ⛈️ isolated thunderstorms over the regional waters today.
Seas are provided as a range of the average height of the highest 1/3 of the waves, along with the occasional height of the average highest 10 percent of the waves.
