southward into the weekend and early next week as low pressure
develops near the Mid Atlantic seaboard, causing winds to become
offshore. Drier air will keep shower and storm development
isolated through this evening, then shower and storm chances
increase Friday and into the weekend.

.GULF STREAM HAZARDS...None.
