.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...Strengthening low pressure just E
of the southern waters early this morning will move E and NE away
from the area today as high pressure builds into the northern and
central portions. The high will shift E of the area tonight, with
a warm front clipping the N waters as it lifts NE away from the
area. A strong cold front will approach the coast Wed, move E and
SE across the waters Wed night, then clear E of the area Thu.
High pressure will move E across the area Thu night into Fri,
then persist into Sat while weakening. A weak low and an
associated trough or cold front will quickly pass across the
northern areas Sat. Developing low pressure and associated warm
and cold fronts will approach the waters late Sat. The warm front
will lift across the northern waters Sat night as the developing
low and cold front approach the coast or begin to move just
offshore.
