.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...A stationary front across the N
waters will become a warm front by late today and move NE of the
area by early tonight. The associated low pressure will slide E
off the New England coast Wed night and NE of the area Thu while
pulling a cold front across the northern waters. The front will
stall over the northern waters Thu night while a low will slide
offshore along the front Fri. As the low slides E across the
northern waters a cold front will push across the central and
southern waters Fri and Fri night. The front will push just E of
the area Sat as a low develops along the front. High pressure
will build over the waters Sat night into Sun behind the low
before a weak cold front pushes offshore Sun night off the Mid-
Atlantic.
