.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...A high pressure ridge across the
far southern waters will weaken tonight through Thu night while
drifting S. A cold front will approach from the W and NW tonight,
then slowly move SE over the waters Thu. The front will stall
across the central and N waters Thu night through Sat as a

pressure forming along the front late Sat will track NE across

Sat night through Sun night, meanwhile lifting a warm front N
across the northern waters Sat night through Sun night. High
pressure will build across the waters from the W behind the
cold front and leading low Sun night through Mon night.
