.SYNOPSIS FOR NEW ENGLAND WATERS...A series of surface troughs
will move SE across the waters today. High pressure will move E
across the waters late Sat and Sat night before shifting E of the
area Sun. A warm front will move N into the area Sun, reaching
the Gulf of Maine Sun night. A cold front will sweep E across the
waters Sun night, moving well E of the area Mon. High pressure
will build E across the area late Mon, persist Mon night, then
move E Tue. Intensifying low pressure will approach the waters
from the SW early Tue and move into the area late Tue into Tue
night. The low pressure will rapidly exit NE of the region Wed
before high pressure quickly moves across the waters Wed night.
Mariners should monitor later forecasts for possible avoidance
