.SYNOPSIS...Strengthening low pressure centered near 39N70W will
continue moving NE and clear well N of the area tonight, while
its associated cold front stalls over the central portion. A weak
low will move E along the stalled boundary later tonight into Sun
night. The front will drift N as a warm front Sun night as
another low develops along the Mid- Atlantic coast. This next low
will track E and NE over the far NW waters Mon before weakening
NE of the area Mon night. Mariners should use caution for locally
gusty winds and rough seas in and near scattered to numerous
thunderstorms likely over parts of the area into early next week.
Yet another low will approach the NW waters early Tue, and pass N
and then NE of the area late Tue into Tue night while pulling a
cold front offshore. The cold front will stall across the central
waters Wed and Wed night, then dissipate Thu. Another cold front
will approach from the NW Thu night. Chesapeake NAVTEX is
degraded. Technicians are aware. We apologize for the
inconvenience.
