.SYNOPSIS...Weak high pressure will move E across the northern
waters today as a stationary front dissipates across the southern
waters. The high will shift E tonight as a warm front emerges off
of the mid- Atlantic coast. Low pressure associated with this
warm front will become absorbed by a cold front moving S into the
northern waters on Sat and move quickly NE, then move well out
into the N Atlantic Sat night. The trailing cold front will move
S across the area through Sun night. High pressure will pass E
across the northern waters late Mon through Tue. A warm front
will lift NE from the Mid-Atlantic coast Tue, then move N of the
area Tue night.
