.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...A high pressure ridge will
prevail mainly from the outer portion of the S waters eastward
through Wed night, with the ridge gradually weakening Thu into
Fri night. A weak cold front will reach the far N waters early
this morning and then stall later this morning. The weak front
will then lift N of the area as a warm front later today and tonight.
A slow-moving cold front will approach from the W and NW Tue,
with the front weakening while moving offshore over the N portion
Tue night into Wed. Another slow-moving cold front will approach
the coast Wed night, with this front sliding offshore over the N
waters Thu, and then likely reaching the central waters Thu
night. The front will stall over the region Fri and Fri night as
high pressure builds over the mid-Atlantic states, and a weak low
forms near Florida.
