Seas will build to 5 to 6 feet, occasionally up to 8 feet across portions of the offshore Atlantic waters by Monday, with Small Craft Advisory conditions possible across the Atlantic waters and local passages. 🌦️ Scattered showers and ⛈️ isolated thunderstorms may produce locally higher winds and seas, frequent lightning, and brief visibility reductions.
