...BLOWOUT TIDES THROUGH LOW TIDE EARLY SUNDAY MORNING...

Northwest winds will average around 15 to 20 kt with frequent
gusts around 30 knots. These winds will continue to cause water
levels to be around 1 to 2 feet below mean lower low water for
the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay north of Smith Point and
the Tidal Potomac River around low tide through early Sunday
morning. Even around times of high tide, water levels will remain
anomalously low.

Mariners should check navigation charts and be careful not to
ground your vessel, particularly when boating away from the main
channel.

Mariners should use extra caution if navigating waters due to the
strong winds.
