.SYNOPSIS FOR NEW ENGLAND WATERS...A high pressure center will
shift E of the area through tonight while maintaining a ridge W
across the waters tonight into early Wed, then weakening and
dissipating later Wed and Wed night. A warm front will approach
from the SW Tue night, then lift N and stall across the waters
Wed into Thu night while a series of lows track E along the
front. The nearly stationary front will then move back to the S
as a cold front Fri and Fri night while high pressure ridge
builds S across the region. On Sat and Sat night the
strengthening high will persist to the N and push the cold front
further S of the area.
