.SYNOPSIS...A stationary front extending NE from the N waters
will dissipate today. A cold front will approach the coast this
morning, move offshore later today into this evening, reach the
outer waters later tonight, and then stall over the area Mon.
The front will remain over the area Mon night as low pressure
begins to organize along the front just off the S Carolina coast.
The low will continue to organize and move slowly E and NE away
from the waters Tue through Wed while pulling a trailing cold
front E over the area. The low will pass well NE of the area Wed
night with the trailing cold front weakening over the S waters.
High pressure will build over the area behind the low Wed
afternoon and Wed night. The high will drift E across the region
Thu, and pass E of the area Thu night. Navtex station Chesapeake
Virginia is offline until further notice. Technicians are aware
of the problem and are working to have it repaired. Sorry for any
inconvenience.
