...GALE FORCE WINDS POSSIBLE MONDAY NIGHT...
...NEAR BLOW OUT CONDITIONS AT LOW TIDES LATE MONDAY NIGHT AND
   TUESDAY AFTERNOON...

LOW PRESSURE...MOVING NORTHEAST FROM THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI
VALLEY...IS EXPECTED TO REACH WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA LATE MONDAY.
SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL BE INCREASING TO SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY
CRITERIA BY MID OR LATE AFTERNOON MONDAY...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR
GALE FORCE GUSTS MONDAY NIGHT...AHEAD OF AND ACCOMPANYING A COLD
FRONT. A FEW THUNDERSTORMS ARE ALSO POSSIBLE MONDAY NIGHT. ONCE
THE FRONT CROSSES THE AREA...WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE NORTHWEST
AND REMAIN GUSTY THROUGH TUESDAY.

THE GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS COMBINED WITH HIGH ASTRONOMICAL TIDAL
EFFECTS DUE TO THE RECENT FULL MOON MAY CREATE ENOUGH NEGATIVE
DEPARTURE FOR BLOW OUT TIDE CONDITIONS. DEPARTURES TO AROUND
2.0 FEET BELOW NORMAL ARE EXPECTED LATE MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH
TUESDAY. THE LOW TIDE CYCLES AFFECTED WILL BE DURING THE EARLY
MORNING HOURS TUESDAY AND THEN...MORE LIKELY...TUESDAY AFTERNOON.
TIMING WILL BE THE KEY FOR THIS EVENT. THE GREATEST DEPARTURES MAY
COINCIDE WITH THE TIME OF HIGH TIDE...THEREFORE MINIMIZING THE
EFFECTS. BUT A SHIFT OF SEVERAL HOURS IN EITHER DIRECTION COULD
VERY EASILY PRODUCE BLOW OUT CONDITIONS. WE WILL CONTINUE TO
MONITOR AS THE SITUATION EVOLVES.
