NAVTEX Marine Forecast for Mid-Atlantic states waters
NWS Ocean Prediction Center Washington DC
1124 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 pressure with the
main center just to the east of Ocean City will remain nearly
stationary today, then dissipate later tonight. A second low
centered just SE of Cape Fear will move E across the southern
waters today, then dissipate tonight. A new low center will
re-develop across the outer mid-Atlantic waters early Tue, with
the entire complex low system drifting E and SE away from the
area Tue night through Wed night. 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.
High pressure will build S into the eastern U.S. Wed through Fri.
On Thu, the broad low, still well E of the waters, 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.
