.SYNOPSIS...A cold front over the SE waters will drift E while
weakening today into tonight with the front dissipating by Sun. A
second cold front will approach the coast Sun morning, move
slowly offshore later Sun into Sun evening, reach the outer
waters later Sun night, 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 waters Tue and Tue night into Wed while pulling a
trailing cold front E over the S waters. The low will pass E of
the central and N waters later Wed with the trailing cold front
clearing E of the area. Weak high pressure will build over most
the waters behind the low and cold front Wed night.
