through NOAA Weather Radio and other means for detailed coastal

.SYNOPSIS...A stationary front draped across the northern half of
the waters will dissipate tonight while low pressure strengthens
just W of the northern waters. As that low moves quickly NE and
then N away from the area, a cold front extending S from the low
will move SE across the northern and central waters tonight and
Fri, reaching the southern waters Fri night. On Sat, a new weaker
area of low pressure will develop W of the waters. It will move E
into the northern waters Sat night into Sun before weakening into
a trough Sun night. The low will drag a cold front across the
central and southern waters Sun night through Mon night. An
additional weak and broad area of troughing will extend S from
broad low pressure N of the area and will move E across the
northern waters Mon into Tue. The low should dissipate later Tue
into Tue as weak ridging builds across the area.
