...AREAS OF DENSE FOG AND STRONG THUNDERSTORMS WITH GUSTY WINDS
POSSIBLE LATER...

WE ARE CONTINUING TO SEE AREAS OF DENSE FOG IN AND ALONG COASTAL
PORTIONS OF NEW JERSEY AND DELAWARE ALL THE WAY UP THE DELAWARE
BAY. VISIBILITIES REMAIN BELOW ONE-HALF MILE MAKING FOR DANGEROUS
TRAVEL CONDITIONS. WHILE DRIVING TODAY, PLEASE BE ON THE ALERT
FOR RAPIDLY CHANGING ROAD CONDITIONS AND USE YOUR LOW BEAMS IN
THICKER FOG PATCHES.

AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT MIGHT TRIGGER THUNDERSTORMS LATER
TODAY. THE WINDS ABOVE THE GROUND WILL BE VERY STRONG. IF THE
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WERE TO ORGANIZE INTO A LINE, THIS WOULD
INCREASE THEIR ABILITY TO MIX THE WINDS DOWN TO THE GROUND. IN
FACT, EXTREME SOUTHEAST NEW JERSEY AND THE SOUTHERN DELMARVA IS
IN A SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. EVEN WITHOUT THE
THUNDERSTORMS, WIND GUSTS LATER TODAY COULD EASILY REACH 30 TO 40
MPH, ESPECIALLY ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST.

IF YOU HAVE TRAVELING PLANS LATER TODAY, PLEASE BE ON THE ALERT
FOR THREATENING WEATHER. HEAVY DOWNPOURS ARE ALSO LIKELY.

...STRONG GUSTY WINDS POSSIBLE LATER TODAY...

LATER TODAY, AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT MIGHT START DEVELOPING A
LINE OF SHOWERS WITH EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS. THE WINDS ABOVE THE
GROUND ARE GOING TO BE VERY STRONG. IF THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
WERE TO ORGANIZE INTO A LINE, THIS WOULD INCREASE THEIR ABILITY TO
MIX THESE WINDS DOWN TO THE GROUND. PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN DELMARVA
IS IN A SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TODAY. EVEN WITHOUT THE
THUNDERSTORMS, WIND GUSTS LATER TODAY COULD EASILY REACH AROUND 30
MPH.

IF YOU HAVE TRAVELING PLANS LATER TODAY, PLEASE BE ON THE
ALERT FOR THREATENING WEATHER. HEAVY DOWNPOURS ARE ALSO LIKELY AND
WOULD CAUSE FLOODING. A FLOOD WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR MUCH OF THE
AREA, EXCEPT FOR SOUTHERN DELMARVA.
