THE STRONG SOUTHEAST TO SOUTH WINDS THAT BROUGHT THE WATER LEVELS
UP BY AS MUCH AS 3.0 FEET ABOVE NORMAL THIS MORNING ARE GOING TO 
SWITCH TO THE SOUTHWEST AND WEST LATER THIS MORNING AND AFTERNOON,
INCREASING IN SPEEDS. 

A CHECK WITH A COUPLE OF COUNTIES ON MARYLANDS NORTHEAST SHORE DID
NOT INDICATE ANY TIDAL FLOODING, BUT SOME AREAS MAY HAVE REACHED
NEAR MINOR JUDGING FROM THE NATIONAL OCEAN SERVICE TIDAL GAUGES. 

AS A RESULT, THIS BUILDUP OVER THE TIDE WILL NOW BE SUBJECT TO
WESTERLY WINDS THAT MAY GUST TO NEAR 45 OR 50 MPH. THIS WILL
LIKELY PUSH SOME OF THE WATER INLAND WITH SOME TRIBUTARIES
