I like ikitesurf for real time wind and other resources. For forecasts, I find NWS pretty reliable for this area. They are predicting the following for the next few days:

Rest Of Tonight...East northeast winds 11 to 14 knots. Seas 2 to 3 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Scattered showers and thunderstorms.

Tuesday...East northeast winds 13 to 16 knots. Seas 2 to 4 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Isolated showers and thunderstorms.
Tuesday Night...East winds 13 to 16 knots. Seas 3 to 5 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Isolated showers.

Wednesday...East northeast winds 13 to 16 knots. Seas 3 to 5 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Slight chance of showers in the afternoon.
Wednesday Night...East winds 14 to 17 knots. Seas 2 to 4 feet near shore and up to 3 to 5 feet in the gulf stream. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Slight chance of showers through the night.

Thursday...East northeast winds 13 to 18 knots. Seas 3 to 5 feet. Intracoastal waters choppy in exposed areas.
Thursday Night...East northeast winds 13 to 18 knots. Seas 3 to 5 feet. Intracoastal waters choppy in exposed areas.

Friday...Northeast winds 14 to 17 knots. Seas 3 to 5 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop.

So, if 13 to 16 kts. is what you have in mind, it looks like you have a good shot at it. Winds are already up at this hour per ikitesurf realtime winds per the current forecast.
