Marine Forecast Discussion

.MARINE...
Easterly winds around 10 kts prevail today, but the persistent 
onshore flow as low pressure moves through the region appears 
likely to cause seas to gradually build, with waves reaching 5-6
feet tonight into Tuesday. Thus, while no headlines are 
expected for the day today, Small Craft Advisory goes into 
effect on the ocean waters tonight and Tuesday. Winds turn 
southerly later on Tuesday with some gusts up to 25 kts at times
as well, but the main cause of the headline will be the wave 
heights. For this reason, no headlines are planned for the bay. 

Aside from the winds and seas, spotty thunderstorms will be a 
concern, especially later today and again on Tuesday afternoon.

Outlook... Tue night... Lingering SCA conditions (seas) 
diminish overnight. Scattered showers or an evening tstm. 

Wed...sub-SCA with scattered showers or a tstm possible. 

Wed night... sub-SCA. Fair. 

Thursday thru Friday...sub-SCA. Scattered showers.

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.

Latest Offshore Waters Forecast for New England

FZNT21 KWBC 051500
OFFNT1

Offshore Waters Forecast
NWS Ocean Prediction Center Washington DC
ISSUED BY NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1100 AM EDT Mon May 5 2025

New England continental shelf and slope waters from 25 nm
offshore to the Hague Line, except to 1000 fm south of New
England.

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.

ANZ898-060200-
1100 AM EDT Mon May 5 2025

.SYNOPSIS FOR NEW ENGLAND WATERS...A stationary front over the
Gulf of Maine will remain nearly stationary today into tonight
while slowly weakening. The weak front will lift N over the area
as a warm front Tue as low pressure moves slowly E over western
New England and the northern Mid-Atlantic states. Weak low
pressure will move slowly E off the New Jersey coast Tue night,
and track E over the waters just S of the area Wed. Another low
will track E over northern New England Wed, and then move E and
NE over the northern Gulf of Maine and Bay of Fundy Wed night
into Thu with a trailing cold front moving E and SE over the
area. The front will likely stall S of the area Thu night as the
next low pressure area develops. The developing low will move E
and NE Fri into Fri night and pass near or just S and E of the
waters.

.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...A broad low pressure system will
persist to the W of the waters today and tonight, with a
stationary front N of the area. A cold front extending S from the
low will stall along the coast today into Tue before finally
pushing offshore into the N and central waters by Tue night as
weak low pressure tracks E over the N waters. Mariners should use
caution for locally very gusty winds and rough seas in or near
scattered to numerous tstms likely over the area during the next
few days. Otherwise, the cold front will move E of the N waters
and begin to stall over the central and S waters later Wed into
Wed night. The stalled front will dissipate over the area Thu as
another cold front moves E and SE into the waters. The cold front
will stall across the area Thu night. Low pressure will develop
off the northern Mid-Atlantic coast by Fri, and track E and NE
near or just N of the northern waters Fri into Fri night will
pulling a trailing cold front E and SE over the region.

Rip Current Risk

Rip Current Risk Definitions

Low Risk Surf zone conditions are not expected to support the development of life threatening rip currents. However, life threatening rip currents often occur in the vicinity of groins, jetties, reefs, and piers.
Moderate Risk Surf zone conditions are favorable for the development of life threatening rip currents.
High Risk Surf zone conditions will likely support the development of life threatening rip currents.

These models forecasts are produced by WFO Mount Holly, NJ, using the NWPS wave models and the Real Time Ocean Forecast System.


The NWPS output is used as guidance to produce WFO Mount Holly's marine forecasts. It is only experimental and it may differ from the official forecast.  For the official marine forecast  graphics go to:  WFO PHI Official Marine Forecast Graphics.

NWPS accounts for the following physics:

  • Wave propagation in time and space, shoaling, refraction due to current and depth, frequency shifting due to currents and non-stationary depth.
  • Wave generation by wind.
  • Three- and four-wave interactions.
  • Whitecapping, bottom friction and depth-induced breaking.
  • Dissipation.
  • Wave-induced set-up.
  • Propagation from laboratory up to global scales.
  • Transmission through and reflection (specular and diffuse) against obstacles.
  • Diffraction.

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.
