...STRONG UP THE BAY WINDS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE OVER THE NEXT COUPLE 
OF HOURS... 

THE COMBINATION OF A HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM OFFSHORE AND A BAY BREEZE 
THAT HAS DEVELOPED HAS PRODUCED A STRONG UP THE BAY WIND. SUSTAINED 
SOUTHEAST WINDS ARE AVERAGING 15 TO 20 KNOTS WITH SOME GUSTS TO 
AROUND 25 KNOTS ARE OCCURRING. THE STRONGEST GUSTS ARE BEING 
REPORTED WHERE THE BAY NARROWS AROUND SHIP JOHN SHOAL LIGHT.

AS THE SUN SETS, WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO DIMINISH ACROSS THE BAY AND 
THIS SHOULD CONTINUE OVERNIGHT. UNTIL THEN MARINERS ARE ADVISED TO 
BE WARY FOR CHANGES IN WIND SPEED AS ONE ENTERS THE BAY FROM EITHER 
THE DELAWARE RIVER OR THE OCEAN.
