NAVTEX Marine Forecast for Mid-Atlantic states waters
NWS Ocean Prediction Center Washington DC
510 AM EDT Mon Oct 13 2025

Conditions given represent the highest within that period.

Locally higher winds and seas can be expected in and near tstms.

...Please refer to Coastal Waters Forecasts (CWF) available
through NOAA Weather Radio and other means for detailed coastal
waters forecasts...

.SYNOPSIS...A broad and complex coastal low will persist today.
One low center will remain nearly stationary near the mouth of
the Delaware Bay. A trough extends south from that center to a
second low center SE of Cape Fear. The southern low center will
move quickly E across the southern waters today and tonight,
while the northern center dissipates just inland later tonight
into Tue. Later on Tue, a new low center will form over the outer
Mid- Atlantic waters. Mariners should continue to monitor later
forecasts on this coastal system as it will be highly impactful
to the mariner through the middle of the week. The entire complex
low will drift SE away from the waters Tue night through Wed
night. High pressure will build S into the eastern U.S. Wed
through Fri. On Thu, the broad low will drift back W, leading to
a strengthening pressure gradient, particularly over the outer
northern waters. The low will finally move E away from the area
Fri night as high pressure builds E offshore into the waters.
