.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...High pressure just E of the area
will maintain a weak ridge to the S of the waters today. A weak
cold front will move slowly E across the waters today and then
will stall across the central and southern portions this
evening. Weak low pressure will develop along the front this
evening, then will track NE along the front later tonight into
Mon. The low will move well E of the waters late Mon. The
associated stationary front will lift N across the waters as a
weakening warm front Mon night and Tue. Another cold front will
move E across the waters Tue night into Wed as strengthening low
pressure passes just E of the area. The front will stall and
dissipate Wed. High pressure will build E across the waters late
Wed into Thu as developing low pressure and a cold front
approach the coast. The low will track NE near the New England
coast late Thu and Thu night while pulling the cold front E
across the waters.
