Tue night. High pressure will build over the waters Wed, persist
Wed night, and then weaken early Thu. Yet another cold front will
move SE over the N and central portions late Thu before stalling
across the far S waters Thu night. High pressure will build E
over the N waters Fri into Fri night. The front and developing
low pressure will begin to move back to the N over the S and
central waters late Fri into Fri night. Mariners should monitor
