.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...Low pressure will move E while
weakening E of the waters today through Wed. A high pressure
ridge will build S over the region today into Wed, then shift E
of the area Wed night into Thu. Low pressure will develop N of
the waters Thu night, then track slowly SE while strengthening to
N and then E of the area Fri through Sat night. Winds and seas
will likely increase Thu through Fri ahead of Potential Tropical
Cyclone Nine moving from the eastern Gulf of Mexico inland into
the Southeast U.S. All marine interests should closely monitor
the latest forecasts from the National Hurricane Center.
