.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...Low pressure now over SE Georgia
will drift N today into early next week, and remain inland, with
tropical cyclone formation not expected with this system. High
pressure will persist E of the waters with a ridge extending
westward over most of the waters today into Sun. The ridge will
gradually shift E later Sun and Sun night as a cold front
approaches the northern Mid-Atlantic coast. The cold front will
move offshore and cross the N waters Mon, and then clear E of the
northern waters Mon night as the front crosses the central
waters. The front will likely stall and weaken from the South
Carolina coast eastward Tue and Tue night as weak high pressure
forms N of the front. The front will return N as a warm front Wed
as the high shifts E of the N waters. The warm front will lift
N of the area by Wed night as another cold front approaches the
coast from the W.
