.MARINE... Upper level low pressure will remain off the coast through the weekend as high pressure builds to the north. Light northerly winds turn toward the east and southeast through tonight and Saturday. A frontal system will approach Saturday, with thunderstorms potentially reaching the waters during the late afternoon or evening. Better agreement in the vicinity of the Potomac with lesser confidence near the Bay. The front will stall near the area Sunday before high pressure surges from the northeast Sunday night and turns winds to the northeast. There is potential for marginal SCA conditions at times late Saturday through Sunday night, although in general computer guidance has backed off on stronger winds. SCA conditions are possible Wednesday and Thursday. Update as of: 842 PM EDT Fri Sep 20 2024
