.Synopsis for Massachusetts and Rhode Island coastal waters...
Low pres system brings the threat of widespread rain, especially the
southern waters tomorrow. High pres builds in from the N early next
week with the distant system off shore, this could provide a period
of strong easterly wind, near gale force, Tue into Wed. There is
potential for a coastal low to track northward late week bringing
strong winds and rough seas but confidence is low in the exact track
and thus impacts.
