U.S. Mon night. The low will lift NE along the front while
passing just NW and then N of the waters Tue while intensifying.
A cold front extending S and SW from the system will sweep SE
across the waters late Tue and Tue night. High pressure will
build over the waters Wed, and then weaken Wed night into Thu.
Yet another cold front will reach the N portions later Thu
night while becoming nearly stationary. Mariners should monitor
the latest forecasts for possible deployment of avoidance plans
related to the intensifying low set to impact the area and points
to the N and NE Tue into Tue night.
