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 southwest of the Potomac River on Thursday. The front will lift back northward as a warm front Friday into Saturday, then will be followed by a cold front Saturday night. Small Craft Advisories may be needed for portions of the waters in east to southeast flow Friday night into Saturday.
