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. Waves flat where waters are iced over. A front just to the north will return south as a backdoor cold front through Friday. The front may lift north again Saturday before a cold front sweeps from west to east late Saturday into Sunday. The front will dissipate over the region by the early and middle part of next week. The next chance for Small Craft Advisories will be Saturday through Saturday night.
