Weak high pressure will build E into the northern waters tonight behind the front. The high will shift E Wed night, allowing the stationary front across the southern waters to lift N as a warm front Wed night and Thu. Developing low pressure will track NE near the New England coast late Thu into Fri while pulling a strong cold front across the waters. The front will pass E of the waters later Fri and Fri night. High pressure will gradually build E across the central and southern waters Fri night through Sun night while a series of quick-moving weak troughs move E across the northern waters.
