Coastal Waters Forecast

National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC

FOR THE TIDAL POTOMAC AND MD PORTION OF THE CHESAPEAKE BAY.

Tidal Potomac River and Maryland portion of Chesapeake Bay. Forecasts of wave heights do not include effects of wind direction relative to tidal currents. Expect higher waves when winds are blowing against the tidal flow. High pressure over northern New England will persist through the first part of the upcoming weekend. A cool air wedge will remain entrenched southward along the East Coast into the Mid-Atlantic. An active weather pattern will evolve over the weekend into next week as multiple areas of strong low pressure and their associated fronts track from the middle Mississippi River Valley to the Northeast. Small Craft Advisories may be needed in southerly flow ahead of an approaching cold front Saturday night through Sunday night.
