Today is May 25, 2026, and if you’re in St. Marks, you might want to keep an eye on the skies tonight. The weather forecast is calling for variable winds at about 5 knots or less, which means it should be pretty calm. But don’t let that fool you—there’s a chance of showers and thunderstorms between 7 PM and 9 PM. Just a heads up! The seas will be gentle, at 1 foot or less, with a dominant period of 1 to 2 seconds. A perfect evening for a stroll on the beach, unless the clouds roll in!
Looking ahead to Memorial Day, the winds will shift to a southeast direction, picking up a bit to around 5 to 10 knots, and then swinging to south in the afternoon. Gusts could hit 20 knots, so if you’re planning any outdoor activities, keep that in mind. Oh, and there’s still a chance of those pesky showers and thunderstorms, but the seas should remain calm, just like tonight.
Midweek Weather Forecast
As we roll into Tuesday, expect more of the same with an east-southeast wind blowing at 5 to 10 knots, shifting to south later in the day. Thunderstorms seem to enjoy this time of year, so keep your rain gear handy. Seas will stay low at 1 foot or less, making it a decent time for boating—if you can dodge the storms! Later that night, variable winds will continue, and there’s a chance of rain mainly after 1 AM.
Wednesday brings us another southeast breeze of 5 to 10 knots, which will again transition to south in the afternoon. More thunderstorms are in the forecast, but the seas remain friendly, at 1 foot or less. You might want to enjoy a quiet evening out by the water, but don’t forget to check the radar. Those storms can sneak up on you!
By Thursday, we’ll see variable winds dropping below 5 knots before shifting to southwest at 5 to 10 knots in the afternoon—a little more movement in the air! Showers and thunderstorms are likely again, especially after 1 PM. Late Thursday night, expect the winds to calm yet again, with a partly cloudy sky overhead. Seas will still be around 1 foot or less. It’s all very typical Florida weather—warm, humid, and a bit unpredictable!
