.SYNOPSIS FOR NEW ENGLAND WATERS...High pressure will move E away
from the waters tonight. A warm front will lift N into the 
waters this evening, followed by a cold front moving SE over the
area late tonight into early Sat. The cold front will stall S of
the area during Sat, then lift back N through the waters as a 
warm front Sat night. A stronger cold front will move offshore 
Sun while a strengthening low develops near the coast and moves 
into the Gulf of Maine early Sun. The cold front will move E of 
the area Sun night into Mon while the rapidly developing low 
moves off to the NE of the area. High pressure will build to the 
SW and S of the waters Mon night, and pass to the SE of the area 
Tue and Tue night as a low pressure trough crosses the region. A 
warm front will develop and lift N into the area Tue night as 
another strong low pressure system moves E and NE from the Great 
Lakes. The low will pass N of the waters Wed into Wed night with
a trailing strong cold front approaching from the W and NW late
Wed into Wed night.
