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 build across Mid Atlantic area through Saturday, resulting in a warming trend. A strong cold front is set to push south through the area Sunday. Multiple areas of low pressure may track along this boundary to our south early next week. Small Craft Advisories may be needed Sunday through early Monday.
