high pressure area will build E into the northern waters today
into tonight, then move E of the area Mon. Yet another high will
build E towards the region Tue and Tue night. The high will
weaken over the N and central portions Wed, as a strong cold
front approaches the mid- Atlantic coast early Wed night. The
