Marine Forecast Discussion

.MARINE...
Winds and seas will remain sub-SCA thru Saturday evening. Dry 
conditions expected with southerly winds less than 15 kts 
eventually becoming north to northeasterly Saturday. Significant
wave heights are forecast to be less than 3 feet through 
Saturday evening.

Outlook... 

Sunday...Winds and seas should stay below SCA criteria.

Monday into Tuesday...Seas could approach 5 feet, especially further 
away from the New Jersey coast.

Wednesday...Winds and seas should stay below SCA criteria.

Rip Currents...

Saturday...Northeast winds will be 5-10 knots with breaking waves 
around 1-2 feet with a 7 to 9 second swell. This will result in a 
LOW risk for the development of dangerous rip currents for both the 
Jersey Shore and Delaware Beaches.

Sunday...Winds will come around to the S/SE but speeds will remain 
around 5 to 10 knots with breaking waves 1-2 feet and a swell 
continuing around 7 to 9 seconds. For this reason, we'll continue 
with a LOW risk for both the Jersey shore and the Delaware
Beaches.

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.

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.

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

North Carolina coast will shift slightly S overnight and Sat as 
high pressure increases over the N waters. The front should
become nearly stationary Sat, and low pressure centers will move
along the front. One low should develop more well offshore of 
the Delmarva peninsula Sat night and Sun. This low will gradually
move Sun and Sun night, moving N of the waters Mon. Behind the 
low, a weak front over the far S waters will slowly start to move
N as a warm front Mon night and continue through Tue night 
around the W end of high pressure. The warm front should move N 
of the waters Wed as weak low pressure approaches the mid- 
Atlantic coast from the W Wed night. Chesapeake NAVTEX continues 
to be reported inoperable. Technicians are aware. We apologize

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.
