Out on Pensacola Beach we have stormy conditions. Wind is out of the east southeast blowing around 20-20 mph then switching to the west late today. Water temp is in the mid 60s with murky conditions. Surf is up and running in the waist to chest high range. Waves will build throughout the day. Winds and seas will increase with a strong southerly flow developing in advance of an approaching cold front. This front is expected to progress west to east over the area Thursday morning into afternoon, with a moderate to occasionally strong west to northwest flow in its wake.
