.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...A stationary front will remain in
place across the S waters today while low pressure dissipates
along the front. Weak high pressure will shift E across the N and
central waters this morning, then clear E and NE of the waters
later today. Another low will move slowly NE into the S waters
tonight, with the low likely strengthening some while moving
slowly NE near the outer waters Fri into early Sat. The low will
move NE of the waters later Sat. A cold front will approach the
NW waters late Fri, with the front then moving SE across the
waters Fri night into Sat night. Behind the front, high pressure
will again build SE across the N and central waters Sun into Mon.
The high will move E away from the area late Mon and Mon night
while maintaining a ridge westward across the N waters.
