Thursday 7AM Update

Out on Pensacola Beach we have mostly clear skies. Wind is out of the west northwest blowing around 5-10 mph then switching to the west southwest and increasing. Water temp is in the low 60s with clear conditions. No surf this morning, just some ankle snappers. Waves will slowly build as a westerly flow increases today. West to southwest wind flow increases through the course of the day today ahead of a strong cold front approaching the Lower MS River Valley. As the cold front makes passage tonight, a wind shift and a strengthening northwest flow follows in its wake. Offshore flow strengthens further Friday night into early Saturday
