.SYNOPSIS...A cold front will move S over the area this morning,
then stall over the S waters later today. The front will remain
over the S waters tonight as low pressure forms along the front
off the SE coast. The low will move slowly NE over the area Tue

area. The low will pass E of the N waters Wed and Wed night while
the front stalls over the S waters. High pressure will build over
the N portion Wed into Thu, then shift E of the region Thu night
and Fri. A cold front will approach from the NW Fri, then move
offshore Fri night. The NAVTEX transmitter in Chesapeake,
Virginia is offline until further notice. Technicians are aware
of the problem and are working to have it repaired.
