333 AM EST Thu Jan 29 2026

.SYNOPSIS FOR NEW ENGLAND WATERS...Low pressure just SE of the
waters will continue to move well out into the N Atlantic 
early today. A series of surface troughs then moves SE across 
the area through early Sat. Low pressure should rapidly 
strengthen and broaden off of the SE U.S. coast Sat and Sat 
night. The intense low only gradually moves NE Sat night through 
Sun evening, finally approaching Atlantic Canada late Sun night. 
Another series of surface troughs will move S across the waters 
behind the low Mon and Mon night, with a cold front approaching 
the waters late Mon night. Mariners should monitor the forecasts 
for Sat and beyond, preparing to execute avoidance plans.
