435 PM EDT Sat May 24 2025

.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...A weak stationary front will
persist across the far southern waters tonight and Sun while
broad low pressure moves E across Nova Scotia. The front will
lift N as a warm front Sun night before becoming nearly
stationary again off of the Carolina coast on Mon. A weak area
of low pressure will move E along the front Mon, causing the
front to push back S into the far southern waters Mon night and
become stationary again Tue. Meanwhile, high pressure will build
E from the mid-Atlantic coast into the northern waters Tue into
Wed. High pressure will move E away from the waters Wed night
allowing the front across the far southern waters to gradually lift
back N through the southern and central waters as a warm front
Wed night through Thu night.
