Mixed Weather Expected for Sunday Beach and Boating in Sarasota
Sarasota, Florida, is set to experience a mix of sun and storms on Sunday, September 13, 2026. According to WWSB, widely scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop after mid-morning, with lightning risks persisting throughout the day. The rip current risk is low, and surf conditions are minimal, with waves at 1 foot or less. Winds will start from the southeast at around 5 knots, shifting to the west later in the day. Bay and inland waters are expected to remain smooth, making it a relatively calm day for boating. However, the heat index will be high, so beachgoers are advised to stay hydrated and use sunscreen. The tropical outlook indicates a trough of low pressure in the central subtropical Atlantic, but no immediate impact on the Suncoast is expected.
