Mon and Mon night while weakening. The front will stall over or
just S of the S waters and gradually dissipate Tue. Another high
pressure area will build SE offshore behind the cold front Tue
and Tue night, persist into Wed, then gradually shift off to the
E and SE Wed night ahead of the next approaching cold front. This
cold front will slowly approach the region from the NW Thu into
Thu night, as a low pressure trough develops just inland from the
coast.
