ANZ899-212000- 353 AM EST Fri Nov 21 2025 .SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...Weak high pressure will move E across the northern waters today as a stationary front dissipates across the southern waters. The high will shift E tonight as a warm front emerges off of the mid- Atlantic coast. Low pressure associated with this warm front will become absorbed by a cold front moving S into the northern waters on Sat and move quickly NE, then move well out into the N Atlantic Sat night. The trailing cold front will move S across the area through Sun night. High pressure will pass E across the northern waters late Mon through Tue. A warm front will lift NE from the Mid-Atlantic coast Tue, then move N of the area Tue night. $$ ANZ820-212000- Hudson Canyon to Baltimore Canyon to 1000 FM- 353 AM EST Fri Nov 21 2025 .TODAY...Variable winds less than 10 kt, becoming S to SW.
