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. As high pressure approaches from the Great Lakes, winds become northeasterly through tonight before becoming southerly Tuesday as this high slowly exits to the east. However, wind gusts remain below Small Craft Advisory Levels. Ahead of a cold front, winds increase on Wednesday into Thursday which may necessitate some Small Craft Advisories.
