Warning in effect for the waters offshore Sandy Hook to 
Manasquan Inlet through tonight. For the lower Delaware Bay, a 
Gale Warning is in effect through midnight tonight. For the 
upper Delaware Bay, a Small Craft Advisory is in effect through 
tonight.

Northeast winds continue to steadily increase today as 
Hurricane Erin approaches with sustained winds between 25-35 kt 
expected. Wind gusts upwards of 40-45 kt are expected on the 
Atlantic coastal waters with gusts upwards of 30-40 kt expected 
on the Delaware Bay before gradually diminishing overnight. 
Occasional showers possible across all waters which may cause 
locally higher gusts.

Seas of 8-12 feet this morning will steadily build up to 12-17 
feet this afternoon before gradually beginning to abate tonight 
for the Atlantic coastal waters. Rough and choppy waters are 
expected on the Delaware Bay.

Outlook...

Friday through Saturday night...Small Craft Advisory conditions
expected, mainly due to elevated seas from departing Hurricane 
Erin.

Sunday through Monday...Conditions should remain below advisory
criteria, however scattered showers and thunderstorms are 
forecast.

Rip Currents...

STAY OUT OF THE WATER!

For today, northeast winds 25-35 mph with gusts up to 50 mph. 
Dangerous surf zone conditions continue as breaking waves peak 
at 7-12 feet along with long period southeasterly swells (15-18 
seconds) still associated with Hurricane Erin. A HIGH risk for 
the development of life-threatening rip currents continues for 
the Jersey Shore and the Delaware Beaches.

For Friday, conditions begin to improve but still expecting 
high waves of 5 to 9 feet and a long period 13 to 16 second 
swell with Hurricane Erin pulling away. A HIGH risk for 
development of life-threatening rip currents will remain through
the end of the week.

A HIGH risk of rip currents is likely to persist through 
Saturday, and possibly Sunday as well.

A High Surf Advisory and High Risk for Rip Currents statement 
are in effect through Friday for the New Jersey and Delaware 
Atlantic coasts. Waves in the surf zone will reach and exceed 8 
feet, and a high risk of rip currents will persist through the

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

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

OFFNT2

Offshore Waters Forecast
NWS Ocean Prediction Center Washington DC
454 AM EDT Thu Aug 21 2025

West central North Atlantic continental shelf and slope waters
beyond 20 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.

.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...The center of large Hurricane
Erin is located over the outer portion of the central waters 
early this morning. Erin will continue to track N and NE through
the outer central and then outer portion of the northern waters 
later today and tonight. Erin will then turn NE and move away 
from the waters Fri and Fri night into the weekend. Significant S
to SE swell will continue through Fri night while gradually 
backing to the E. A high pressure area will build over the waters
Fri night into Sat night while a stationary front forms over the
far S waters. Weak low pressure will form along the front off 
the South Carolina coast Sat night, then lift NE and begin to 
strengthen some while passing through the central and N waters 
Sun into early Mon while the area of high pressure to the N 
shifts E of the region. A cold front will approach the area from 
the W late Sun night, then move E across the area Mon and Mon 
night while the developing low passes N and NE of the area. For 
more information on Hurricane Erin, please closely monitor the 
latest forecasts from the National Hurricane Center.

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.

Near Shore Wave Prediction System Model Output

 

Full Domain Model Run

 

Delaware Bay Model Run

 

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.


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.
