.SYNOPSIS...A strengthening coastal low will continue moving
slowly N just offshore of the SE U.S. today. The low will expand,
with a secondary low forming offshore of the Virginia Capes
tonight. This broad, complex low will move very slowly E from the
Virginia Capes across the outer Mid- Atlantic waters tonight
through Tue night, then finally move E of the area Wed. Mariners
should monitor later forecasts on the coastal system as this will
be a long duration event for the east coast, and impactful to the
mariner. High pressure will build S into the eastern U.S. Wed
into Thu, maintaining a strong pressure gradient across the
waters. A new area of low pressure will likely form just E of the
outer Mid- Atlantic waters Thu and remain nearly stationary into
Thu night.
