.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...Broad low pressure system just E
of the northern waters, centered about 325 nm SE of Nantucket,
will remain nearly stationary early tonight. The low will move
slowly E away from the area later tonight through Mon night. A
cold front extending E across the waters from off of the Georgia
coast will move slowly S tonight through Mon, as a series of weak
low pressure centers form and move E along the boundary. The
front will pass S of the area Mon night and Tue while high
pressure builds S into the northern waters. The high pressure
ridge will slowly drift S Tue night through Thu while weakening,
and then will shift S of the waters Thu night where it will
persist through Fri night. A cold front will approach the
northern Mid-Atlantic coast Thu night and Fri, and then move SE
into the northern waters Fri night.
