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 approach from the northwest Thursday and eventually pass to the southeast and weaken by early Saturday. High pressure will build north of the area this weekend. Small Craft Advisories are possible again on Thursday ahead of the front, along with the potential for gusty thunderstorms in the afternoon and evening, which may necessitate SMWs.
