WHERE
New York Harbor, including Raritan Bay and Sandy Hook Bay, and Peconic and Gardiners Bays.
WHEN
For the Gale Warning, until 6 AM EST Sunday. For the Freezing Spray Advisory, until noon EST Sunday.
IMPACTS
Operating a vessel in freezing spray is hazardous. Freezing spray may render mechanical and electronic components inoperative. Ice accretion on decks and superstructures may result in some loss of stability. Strong winds will cause hazardous waves which could capsize or damage vessels and reduce visibility.
Recommendations
Mariners should prepare for ice accumulation on their vessel and consider altering plans to avoid or mitigate these hazardous conditions. Mariners should alter plans to avoid these hazardous conditions. Remain in port, seek safe harbor, alter course, and/or secure the vessel for hazardous conditions.
