.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...Low pressure E of the region will
continue moving E and SE tonight while the associated cold front
drifts slowly S across the central waters. The front will weaken
and stall over the S waters early Sat, and then dissipate by late
Sat into Sat night. High pressure will build S and SE over the
waters N of the front tonight through Sat. The high will dominate
most of the area Sat night into Sun, before sliding off to the E
and NE of the waters Sun night as a weak cold front approaches
the coast. The front will remain near the coast Mon, slowly move
SE over the N waters Mon night into Tue, then stall over the
central waters Tue night. On Wed, the front will begin to slowly
lift N as a warm front across the central and N waters, then move
just N of the area Wed night as weak low pressure areas form
along the front.
