The National Weather Service in Mount Holly has issued a Small

effect from Saturday evening through late Saturday night.

* Location...The Atlantic coastal waters of New Jersey and 
  Delaware.

  15 to 20 knots with gusts up to 30 knots on Saturday afternoon. 
  East 20 to 25 knots with gusts up to 35 knots on Saturday 
  evening, becoming southeast to south and diminishing gradually 
  late on Saturday night.

* Seas...3 to 6 feet on Saturday, and 5 to 8 feet on Saturday

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Small Craft Advisory means that wind speeds of 25 to 33 knots

and/or location remains uncertain. It is intended to provide 
additional lead time for mariners who may wish to consider 
altering their plans.
