.Synopsis for Fenwick Island DE to Currituck Beach Light NC out 60
nautical miles including Virginia portion of the Chesapeake Bay,
Currituck Sound and portions of the James, York, and Rappahannock
Rivers...
High pressure settles over the region into tonight, with diminishing
winds across the local waters. However, Small Craft Advisories will
linger through Tuesday over the coastal waters due to elevated seas.
The next frontal system approaches from the west by later Wednesday,
and pushes through early Thursday. Another round of Small Craft Advisories
will be possible out ahead of the front, with headlines likely in the
wake of the front Thursday.
