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 cold front will stall across the area tonight. Coastal low pressure will form along the front Friday, and it will move north towards New York City Friday evening. High pressure moves in for the weekend. Showers and thunderstorms could produce gusty winds over the waters tonight. Small Craft Advisories may be needed with gusty north to northwest winds Friday afternoon through Saturday morning.
