.MARINE... Winds and seas are expected to remain below Craft Advisory levels through tonight. For Saturday, southerly winds increase with gusts up to 25 knots expected by late day into the evening. Seas will also be increasing to around 5 feet. A Small Craft Advisory is in effect for our coastal ocean zones that runs from 4 PM Saturday to 10 AM Sunday. Outlook... Monday...No marine hazards expected. Fair weather. Tuesday through Wednesday...Southwest winds increase and could reach Small Craft Advisory levels by late Tuesday into Wednesday. Rip Currents... There is a MODERATE risk for the development of dangerous and life threatening rip currents for the Jersey Shore and Delware Beaches both Saturday and Sunday. On Saturday, south winds will increase to 15 to 20 mph with 25 to 30 mph along with breaking waves of 2 to 3 feet with a 3 to 4 feet/9 to 10 period swell. There is still the potential for the rip current risk to be upgraded to HIGH. On Sunday, winds shift to more of a west to southwest flow at 10 to 15 mph. There will continue to be breaking waves of 2 to 3 feet with a 3 to 4 feet/9 to 10 period swell. Important to note that while surface temperatures inland will be in the low 80s on Saturday and in the upper 80s on Sunday, temperatures along the coasts will mainly be in the 70s due to ocean temperatures in the 50s. These cold water temperatures can quickly cause hypothermia and physical incapacitation to anyone suddenly immersed in the water. For specific beach forecasts, visit weather.gov/beach/phi &&

However, water temperatures remain in the lower 50s. The cold water temperatures can quickly cause hypothermia and physical incapacitation to anyone suddenly immersed in the water. When the water temperature is below 60 degrees, the average submerged person could lose dexterity within minutes and be unable to accomplish simple tasks. Anyone going out on small boats, canoes or kayaks should plan accordingly and use extreme caution to avoid this threat. Several things to consider... * Always wear a life jacket. * Dress for the water temperatures, not air temperatures. Wear cold water protection, like a wetsuit or drysuit. * Carry an Emergency Position Indication Radio Device. * File a float plan with someone you trust. * Check the latest marine weather forecast, including water temperatures at www.weather.gov/okx/marine before you go out on the waters. Your ability to survive cold water immersion depends on your ability to stay afloat and stay warm until help arrives. $$

Rip Current Risk Categories:
* Low Risk - Implies that wind and wave conditions do not support an
enhanced rip current risk. However, life-threatening rip currents are
always possible in the vicinity of groins, jetties, reefs, and piers.
* Moderate Risk - Life-threatening rip currents are possible in the
surf zone. Anyone planning to enter the surf should check with local
beach patrols first. Be sure to swim within sight of a life guard,
and never alone or at night.
* High Risk - Life-threatening rip currents are likely for all people
entering the surf zone. Anyone visiting the beaches should stay out
of the surf.
If you enter the surf zone, always have a flotation device with you
and swim near a lifeguard. If caught in a rip current, relax and
float, and do not swim against the current. If able, swim in a
direction following the shoreline. If unable to escape, face the
shore and yell or wave for help.

FZNT22 KWBC 160236 OFFNT2 Offshore Waters Forecast NWS Ocean Prediction Center Washington DC 1036 PM EDT Fri May 15 2026 West central North Atlantic continental shelf and slope waters beyond 60 nm to 250 nm offshore, including south of Georges Bank from 1000 fm to 250 nm offshore. Seas given as significant wave height, which is the average height of the highest 1/3 of the waves. Individual waves may be more than twice the significant wave height. Locally higher winds and seas can be expected in and near tstms. ANZ899-170230- 1036 PM EDT Fri May 15 2026 .SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...Low pressure troughs will clear the outer waters early tonight. Otherwise, high pressure will build E over the waters into Sat. The high will begin to shift E of the N portion Sat night into Sun as a weak cold front approaches from the NW. The weak cold front will reach the far N waters Sun night, then stall and return N as a weak warm front by late Mon or Mon night. A high pressure ridge will persist from the S and central waters eastward Sat night through Wed night while briefly expanding into the N waters Tue. The next cold front will approach the far NW waters from the W and NW by late Wed night. $$ ANZ820-170230- Hudson Canyon to Baltimore Canyon to 1000 FM- 1036 PM EDT Fri May 15 2026 .TONIGHT...W winds less than 10 kt.

New Jersey Coastal Waters Model Run
These models forecasts are produced by WFO Mount Holly, NJ, using the NWPS wave models and the Real Time Ocean Forecast System.
NWPS accounts for the following physics:
In here you will see 3-hourly forecast outputs for significant wave height, peak wave direction, peak wave period, and significant swell height (heights in feet and periods in seconds). Our local version of NWPS also uses input from WAVEWATCH III for boundary conditions. NOTE: Significant Swell Height output from NWPS is the average height of the highest 1/3 of the group of waves with periods of 10 secs or longer. |
