intensify while lifting NE from near the Outer Banks today to

Wed night, and then weaken early Thu. Yet another cold front will
move SE over the N and central portions late Thu before stalling
across the far S waters Thu night. High pressure will build E
over the N waters Fri into Fri night. The front and developing
low pressure will begin to move back to the N over the S and
central waters late Fri into Fri night, then continue moving NE
into the N waters Sat and then E of the area Sat night. Mariners
should monitor the latest forecasts for the intensifying low
pressure system set to impact the region today into Wed, and
consider avoidance at this time.
