Latest Marine Discussion:
.MARINE... Winds gradually subside overnight. Northwest winds Sunday morning become southerly by Sunday evening. Channeling could result in SCA conditions on the middle Chesapeake Bay Sunday night. Another front will push through early Monday turning winds out of the north once again. However, they should be weaker than the current front, so SCAs are not expected at this time (but remain possible if the front trends stronger). Northerly winds look to continue Tuesday and Wednesday with marginal SCA conditions possible over the middle and lower waters of the Chesapeake Bay/tidal Potomac River. The strength of these winds will depend on the gradient between an area of wobbling low pressure off the coast and incoming high from central Canada. Winds fall back below SCA levels Thursday with some southerly channeling over the wider waters late Friday into Saturday. Update as of: 800 PM EDT Sat May 30 2026
