.SYNOPSIS FOR THE TIDAL POTOMAC AND MD PORTION OF THE CHESAPEAKE BAY...
High pressure will be persistent off the east coast into early next
week. Shower and thunderstorm chances continue through Saturday
afternoon, before taking a brief respite Sunday into Monday. Daily
showers and storm return Tuesday through much of next week. Gusty
winds and frequent cloud to ground lightning will be the primary
threats with any storms. Special Marine Warnings will be a
possibility each day, with the highest chances furthest north.
However, anywhere on the waters will have a chance at storms. Small
Craft Advisories may be needed at times through the weekend due to
periods of southerly channeling.
