front will move E across the waters. The cold front will stall
well S of the area tonight. A high pressure ridge will rapidly
move E over the waters tonight into Mon. A warm front will lift
NE across the waters Mon night, then dissipate early Tue. A weak
low pressure system will pass SE of the waters Tue night. A cold
front will move E across the waters Wed. High pressure will build
to the S and SE of the waters Wed night and Thu as developing low

the cold front E across the waters.
