...LOW WATER ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM NOON TODAY TO 4 PM EST THIS

A STRONG NORTHWEST WIND WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH WATER OUT OF THE TIDAL 
PORTION OF THE DELAWARE RIVER AND OUT OF THE UPPER PART OF DELAWARE

LEVELS MAY CAUSE SOME NAVIGATION PROBLEMS AROUND THE TIME OF LOW

MARINERS ARE URGED TO TAKE ALL NECESSARY PRECAUTIONS TO DEAL WITH 
THE LOW WATER LEVELS. MAKE SURE THERE IS ENOUGH SLACK IN LINES TO 
ALLOW FOR LOW WATER, AND WATCH OUT FOR SHALLOWER DRAFTS.

THE WIND IS EXPECTED TO DIMINISH LATE TODAY AND WATER LEVELS SHOULD 
BEGIN TO RECOVER BY THE TIME OF TONIGHT'S LOW TIDE.
