Marine Forecasts and Observations

Latest Marine Discussion:

.MARINE... High pressure overhead will allow for winds to remain below SCA criteria through Sunday. The flow will turn southerly on Sunday. Winds pick back up Sunday night ahead of an approaching strengthening storm system. SCA-level winds are likely in the open waters of the lower Maryland Bay and Tangier Sound by daybreak Monday, with winds further increasing during the morning as the strengthening low passes to the west. Gale force gusts are possible over parts of the waters on Monday, but being 48 hours away, no headlines are yet raised. Strong thunderstorms are possible mainly Monday afternoon, which could prompt Special Marine Warnings for winds and perhaps for a waterspout. Winds will subside Monday night as the low pulls away. SCA conditions likely on Tuesday with Small Craft conditions possible once again on Wednesday. Update as of: 835 PM EST Sat Nov 28 2020
