.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...Low pressure about 100 nm NE of
Charlestown, SC formerly thought to have the potential to become
tropical will track slowly inland through tonight and further
inland Tue. Otherwise, a warm front will lift N across the waters
tonight through Tue night, and pass N of the area later 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 builds slowly S
over inland areas and and N of the waters. Another low pressure
is expected to develop along this cold front over the N waters
Fri and meander over this region Fri night into Sat, before
moving E and SE over the N and central areas Sat and Sat night.
