Latest Marine Discussion:

.MARINE... Occasional gale force gusts have been observed so far today, but the gradient remains tight and the latest ECMWF shows another surge in northerly winds tomorrow. Have extended the Gale Warning through tomorrow for the waters south of Drum Point where fetch will be longer and winds likely overperform. Otherwise, strong SCA conditions are expected through Monday. Favorable, benign marine conditions expected through the middle of next week. Southerly channeling is possible over the open waters of the Chesapeake Bay on Wednesday, though still uncertain if those winds approach SCA strength. Update as of: 942 PM EDT Sat Sep 26 2026
