Charleston, SC formerly thought to have the potential to become
tropical will track slowly inland through tonight and further

Wed and Wed night. A cold front will move E over the southern
and then the central waters tonight and Tue while stalling over
this region Tue night into Wed before again moving E later Wed
and Wed night. On Thu and Thu night the slow moving cold front
will have several low centers forming along it which will move
towards the NE. Another cold front will drift S across the N
waters early Fri and Fri night, while a high pressure ridge

Another low pressure is expected to develop along this cold
front over the N waters Fri and meander over this region Fri
