Coastal flooding concerns will begin to increase late Tuesday through the end of the week with persistent onshore flow, high tide, full moon Saturday and the potential of a developing coastal low.
Wednesday will feature scattered showers especially the first half of the day, cloudy skies with winds continuing out of the northeast 40 to 50 mph at the beaches, 35 to 40 mph inland. Rain should end late in the day through Thursday morning. Rainfall totals will be on the order of one to two inches.
Uncertainty lies late in the week through the weekend with a developing coastal low. An area of low pressure will move out of the Ohio Valley off the Eastern Seaboard developing into a strengthening coastal low. How strong and how close the low gets to the coast will determine the severity of impacts. The closer scenario would bring heavy rain, high winds and coastal flooding. A track further east would bring winds and the coast and some coastal flooding concerns.
A coastal low will develop late week, how it impacts the region into the weekend remains uncertain.
Big weekend in Ocean City with Oceans Calling. Right now temperatures look to be in the upper 60s to low 70s through the weekend with mostly cloudy skies and onshore flow with all eyes on the exact track of the coastal low.
