.SYNOPSIS...

A frontal boundary over the southeastern states will move
southward, stalling over the Georgia waters tonight. Waves of

boundary remains stalled over our region. Prevailing onshore winds
are expected late this week and into the weekend as weak low
pressure potentially develops over the Gulf of Mexico. Waves of
showers and thunderstorms will continue to impact our local waters
through the weekend.
