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 will begin to settle to the south today before a clipper system tracks across the waters by mid-week. Small Craft Advisories will likely be needed in response to this clipper system during the middle to latter portions of the week. Freezing spray advisories are possible during periods of elevated winds this week. A coastal storm is also possible this weekend. Should it track close enough to the eastern seaboard, Gale Warnings would be possible.
