.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...High pressure across the S
portions this evening will shift E of the region tonight into
Sun as a cold front moves over the N waters. A warm front will
develop near the SE coast tonight, then lift N over the waters
Sun and Sun night as intensifying low pressure moves off the
coast of N Carolina. The low will move NE through the central
waters late Sun night and Mon while pulling a cold front over the
area, then pass E of the region Mon night through Tue night
while continuing to strengthen. Another high will build E across
the S portion Tue and Tue night, then shift E of the region Wed
and Wed night. Another intensifying low will track E just N of
the waters Wed night while pulling a strong cold front across the
area. The low will pass well E of the waters Thu as the front
continues to move slowly S over the area, before the front lifts
slowly back to the N as a warm front Thu night while high
pressure builds SE over the N portion. Mariners should consider
avoidance plans and monitor the latest forecasts.
