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. An area of high pressure will build near and south of the Mid- Atlantic through the week. A pop up shower or thunderstorm is possible late this afternoon along the bay breeze, though most of the area remains dry until Friday. The chance of strong thunderstorms increases Friday into the weekend, with severe thunderstorms possible. Southerly channeling might require additional Small Craft Advisories for Thursday afternoon to evening.
