.SYNOPSIS FOR NEW ENGLAND WATERS...A cold front moving S through
the Gulf of Maine will lift back N as a warm front this evening
as an area of low pressure moved E towards the Maine coast. A
stronger cold front extending SW from the low will move quickly
SE across the waters tonight. High pressure will build E across
the waters late Mon into Tue. The high will shift E Tue night as
weak low pressure develops and moves NE along the Maine coast,
pushing a warm front NE across the area. Another warm front will
lift N across the waters Wed ahead of a stronger area of low
pressure moving E into northern New England. A strong cold front
associated with that system will sweep SE across the area Wed
night into Thu. High pressure will quickly move across the area
Thu night, followed by another cold front moving over the region
Fri and Fri night.
