.SYNOPSIS...A warm front will lift N across the waters today
ahead of a stronger area of low pressure moving E into northern
New England tonight. A strong cold front associated with this
system will sweep E and SE over the area tonight into Thu,
followed by a secondary cold front or low pressure trough Thu
into Fri. High pressure to the S will build E and extend a ridge
across the waters Fri into Sat. Another trough or weak cold front
will cross the area Sat as the ridge shifts E and weakens. Sat
night, developing low pressure with a warm front extending E from
the low will move into the area from the SW. A cold front will
approach the coast from the W late Sat night. The low and
associated front will cross the waters Sun. The cold front will
largely stay S and SE of the area through Sun night as the low
moves NE. High pressure will build across the waters Sun night
behind the cold front.
