.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...High pressure will weaken across
the far S portion tonight. A cold front moving into the S waters
tonight, will stall and then slowly dissipate tonight into Sun.
Another high N of the region, will shift NE and E of the area
tonight and Sun. A warm front will extend E over the N waters
early Sun, then lift N of the region by late Sun. Another cold
front will move SE into the N waters Sun night and Mon, then stall
from near the Virginia Capes eastward Mon night through Tue
night as low pressure develops along the boundary. Low pressure
or a wave of low pressures will move slowly N along the front Wed
through Thu night. Strong high pressure will build N of the
region while interacting with the frontal boundary and low
pressure over the area to generate NE to E gales and building
seas late Tue into Thu night.
