.SYNOPSIS...High pressure will continue building E over the
waters tonight through early Sat night and then will shift E and
NE late Sat night into early Sun. A warm front will develop
along the SE U.S. coast Sat night, quickly lifting N away from
the area Sun, with high pressure returning to the waters through
Sun night. Another cold front will move SE into the area Mon,
then stall along the SE coast Mon night. Low pressure will
develop along the stalled front inland over the SE U.S. Mon
night, then lift NE along the front, passing just NW of the
waters Tue while intensifying. A cold front extending from the
system will sweep SE across the waters Tue night. High
pressure will build over the waters Wed, and then shift E of the
region Wed night while weakening. Mariners should monitor later
forecasts for possible avoidance from the intensifying low
depending on voyage plans.
