Breezes likely will lull from late morning into the late afternoon across the Gulf/Bayside waters due to the heating of South Florida. As the high moves farther eastward and slowly weakens, easterly breezes will slacken Thursday through Sunday. A back door front will slide through sometime Sunday with a strong high pressure quickly filling in the wake. This will allow for breezes to freshen with a period of fresh to occasionally strong breezes possible early next week.
