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. High pressure strengthens over the region through the end of the week. A cold front drops into the area early Sunday before settling near the Carolinas early next week. At the same time, high pressure builds over the waters. Small Craft Advisories may be needed again Friday into Saturday in southerly channeling flow up the Chesapeake Bay. Additional advisories may be needed early next week as well.
