.SYNOPSIS FOR NEW ENGLAND WATERS...Strong low pressure, centered
about 90 nm S of Montauk this evening will move N and NW, and
pass inland tonight, then turn W and weaken Fri while an occluded
front extending east-southeast from the low moves N across the
waters. The low will reemerge over the Mid-Atlantic waters Fri
night as a new low develops SE of Georges Bank. The new low will
move NE and intensify E of the Gulf of Maine on Sat. It will then
stall over the Gulf of St. Lawrence and gradually weaken Sat
night through Sun night. A weak ridge will form over the waters
late Mon. The ridge will shift E Mon night into Tue as a warm
front moves E across the waters, followed by a cold front Tue
night.
