.Synopsis for Eastern North Carolina coastal waters...
A front will lift north across the waters this morning ending any
leftover shower or thunderstorm threat across the area. Winds will
quickly become SW`rly across all waters by mid morning and then
increase through the day today with seas also building in kind as
a thermal trough sets up today. This will result in Small Craft
Advisory conditions across our coastal waters and Pamlico Sound.
Gradients briefly relax early Friday but then tighten again Friday
afternoon through evening with Small Craft Advisory conditions
expected to redevelop south of Oregon Inlet. A backdoor cold front
will push through the waters Sunday with NE winds developing into

off the coast early next week as well.
