.SYNOPSIS...A cold front will cross the NW portion tonight, and
then stall over the S waters Mon. The front will remain over the
S waters 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 over the central and northern
waters Tue and Tue night while pulling a trailing cold front E
over the area. The low will pass E of the northern waters Wed
while leaving a stationary front over the southern waters Wed
night. High pressure will build over the area behind the low Wed
into Thu. The high will drift E of the region Thu night leaving a
ridge axis across the waters Thu night into Fri. A cold front
will approach the northern Mid- Atlantic coast Fri before moving
into the waters Fri 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
