USNA Weather Forecast

Forecast Discussion:

Category 3 Major Hurricane Isaias is expected to make landfall somewhere along the Alabama or Florida Gulf Coast Friday night. After making landfall, the storm is expected to gradually weaken and track northward into the Tennessee River Valley on Saturday before getting caught-up in the prevailing flow and turning northeastward on Sunday. As the remnants pass on Sunday, expect breezy conditions and periods of rain. Widespread rainfall totals between 1.0 and 2.0 inches are expected across Central Maryland. Wind gusts out of the east as high as 30 mph will result in minor-to-moderate coastal flooding around the evening high tide on Sunday. The combination of coastal flooding and steady rainfall will likely result in compound flooding around outfalls and pooling in low-lying areas along the coastline. In addition, 1.0 to 2.0 ft waves are possible in the mouth of the Severn River on Sunday due to the east wind. Interested parties and stakeholders are encouraged to monitor updates from the National Weather Service over the weekend at: https://www.weather.gov/lwx.
