459 AM EDT Mon Sep 23 2024

.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...Low pressure centered about
330 nm SE of Nantucket will slowly drift S across the outer mid-
Atlantic waters today and tonight, then turn E and move away
from the waters Tue into Wed. A high pressure ridge will
continue building S along the coast today into Tue night. The
ridge will move offshore Wed, then shift NE and weaken Wed night
and Thu. Low pressure will develop offshore of the northern
waters Thu night, then track E while remaining N of the area Fri
and Fri night. Across the southern waters, winds and seas will
likely increase Thu ahead of a possible tropical cyclone moving
from the central Gulf of Mexico inland into the Southeast U.S.
All marine interests should closely monitor the latest forecasts
from the National Hurricane Center.
