West central North Atlantic continental shelf and slope waters
beyond 20 nm to 250 nm offshore, including south of Georges Bank
from 1000 fm to 250 nm offshore.

Conditions given represent the highest within that period.

Seas given as significant wave height, which is the average
height of the highest 1/3 of the waves. Individual waves may be
more than twice the significant wave height.

Locally higher winds and seas can be expected in and near tstms.

.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...High pressure across the area
will shift E tonight into Sun. A warm front will develop along
the SE coast tonight, then lift N through the central and N
waters Sun as a cold front approaches from the W. The cold front
will move SE across the N and central waters Sun night through
Mon, then stall over the S waters Mon night as high pressure
builds in across the N waters. Low pressure will develop along
the stationary front inland over the SE U.S. Mon night, with the
low intensifying while lifting NE from near the Outer Banks to
near Georges Bank Tue and Tue night. A cold front extending S
from the low will move quickly E and SE across the waters late
Tue into Tue night. High pressure will build over the waters Wed,
and persist Wed night. Yet another cold front will move across
the N and central portions later Thu before stalling across the S
waters Thu night. Mariners should monitor later forecasts for
possible avoidance from the intensifying low.
