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 stationary front will remain nearby through tonight. This front will likely lift north briefly as a warm front Thursday, before returning south as a backdoor cold front Friday. The front may lift north again Saturday before a cold front sweeps from west to east late Saturday into Sunday. The front will wash out over the region by the early and middle part of next week. Next chance for small craft conditions appears to be on Saturday within southerly channeling.
