.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...Strong high pressure will remain
in place over the northern and central waters today through Mon
night. The high will slowly shift E of the waters Tue into Wed
while maintaining a weakening ridge axis W and SW into the area.
A low pressure trough along the SE coast will persist today
through Tue, then weaken Tue night into Wed. The trough will
begin to strengthen Thu night. A strong cold front will reach the
northern waters Wed, then move quickly SE across the central
waters Wed night. The front will stall across the southern waters
Thu and Thu night, while high pressure builds to the N of the
area. The USCG communications facility Charleston, South Carolina
is still experiencing technical difficulties. Technicians are
aware of the problem. We apologize for any inconvenience.
