Daily Siesta Key guide

Scattered storms and an early beach window.

Today’s forecast favors a bright morning start, with scattered afternoon storms and a flexible ride plan later in the day.

Siesta Key weather and Gulf conditions

The National Weather Service forecast calls for scattered showers and thunderstorms with about a 45% chance of precipitation. Warm Gulf water remains inviting, but radar, beach flags and lifeguard guidance should shape the afternoon.

High: 92°F · Low: 78°F · Gulf water: ~87°F

High, low and storm chance are today’s National Weather Service forecast. Gulf temperature is a nearby coastal estimate.

Go early and keep the afternoon flexible.

Use the morning for swimming and sand time, then plan lunch or an indoor Village stop as clouds build. Leave the water at the first sound of thunder and wait for official guidance before returning.

Change plans without changing the mood.

Siesta Free Ride can connect the beach, Village, restaurants and your hotel when the afternoon forecast changes.

Check live radar, posted beach flags and lifeguard guidance before entering the water. Conditions can change quickly, especially during Florida's summer storm season.
