.Synopsis for Eastern North Carolina coastal waters...
High pressure briefly builds into our waters tonight bringing
benign boating conditions to the area tonight. Another front will
cross the area on Tuesday. AT the same time a strong ridge of
high pressure builds in from the north and a low slides E`wards
well to the south tightening the pressure gradient. This will
bring a rather potent post frontal N`rly surge behind the
departing front starting Tue night with hazardous marine conditions
lingering across at least portions of our coastal waters
potentially into this weekend.
