FOR THE TIDAL POTOMAC AND MD PORTION OF THE CHESAPEAKE BAY.

Expect higher waves when winds are blowing against the tidal flow. Waves flat where waters are iced over.

High pressure approaches from the west Tuesday into Wednesday. Small Craft Advisories will likely be needed Sunday through Sunday night.
