Locally higher winds and seas can be expected in and near tstms. ...Please refer to Coastal Waters Forecasts (CWF) available through NOAA Weather Radio and other means for detailed coastal waters forecasts... .SYNOPSIS...Mariners should use caution in and near strong thunderstorms which are currently near and off the coasts of New Jersey and Delaware, with thunderstorms likely becoming more widespread over a good portion of the area through Wed and into Thu. The stronger thunderstorms can produce very gusty winds and very rough seas. Otherwise, as high pressure remains over the S waters, a surface trough will be located over the N and central waters tonight through Wed night. A cold front approaches from the NW Thu, gradually moving SE across the N waters Thu night and Fri as high pressure to the S retreats E. The front should weaken and stall over the central waters Fri night through Sat, with weak low pressure possibly forming off of the SE U.S. coast just S of the front along a surface trough. The front should move back N as a weak warm front late Sat and Sat night as high pressure builds N. The high continues over most of the area Sun and Sun night, with any weak low pressure drifting off of the SE coast. Sandy Hook to 37.5N .TONIGHT...SW winds 15 to 25 kt. Seas 5 to 9 ft.
