.SYNOPSIS FOR THE TIDAL POTOMAC AND MD PORTION OF THE CHESAPEAKE BAY...
High pressure exits off the Atlantic coast before the next frontal
system slowly approaches from the west. The associated cold front
crosses the waters by late Wednesday before a trough of low pressure
lingers through the remainder of the week. Small Craft Advisories
are likely needed by Wednesday afternoon due to increasing
southeasterly winds. Hazardous marine conditions likely persist
through the late week timeframe.
