One low center will remain nearly stationary near the mouth of the Delaware Bay today. A trough extends south from that center to a second low center SE of Cape Fear. The southern low center will move quickly E across the southern waters today and tonight, while the northern center dissipates just inland later tonight into Tue. Later on Tue, a new low center will form over the outer Mid- Atlantic waters. Mariners should continue to monitor later forecasts on this coastal system as it will be highly impactful to the mariner through the middle of the week. The entire complex low will drift SE away from the waters Tue night through Wed night. High pressure will build S into the eastern U.S. Wed through Fri. On Thu, the broad low, still well E of the waters, will drift back W, leading to a strengthening pressure gradient, particularly over the outer northern waters. The low will finally move E away from the area Fri night as high pressure builds E offshore into the waters.
