.SYNOPSIS FOR NEW ENGLAND WATERS...A stationary front will
continue over the region tonight into Fri as weak low pressure
tracks E along the boundary, then pass S of the waters Fri night.
The low will push a cold front SE across the waters Fri into Fri
night before stalling just S of the area. A high pressure ridge
will build S across the region behind the front Fri night into
Sat, then weaken Sat night. A warm front will lift N over the
area Sat night into Sun. A strong cold front will move offshore
Sun, then pass E of the waters Sun night. A secondary cold front
will cross the area Mon, then pass E of the waters Mon night as
high pressure builds E towards the region.
