A warm front will develop along the SE coast tonight, then lift N through the central and N waters Sun as a cold front approaches from the W. The cold front will move SE across the N and central waters Sun night through Mon, then stall over the S waters Mon night as high pressure builds in across the N waters. Low pressure will develop along the stationary front inland over the SE U.S. Mon night, with the low intensifying while lifting NE from near the Outer Banks to near Georges Bank Tue and Tue night. A cold front extending S from the low will move quickly E and SE across the waters late Tue into Tue night. High pressure will build over the waters Wed, and persist Wed night. Yet another cold front will move across the N and central portions later Thu before stalling across the S waters Thu night. Mariners should monitor later forecasts for possible avoidance from the intensifying low. $$ ANZ820-300800- Hudson Canyon to Baltimore Canyon to 1000 FM- 403 PM EST Sat Nov 29 2025 .TONIGHT...NW winds 5 to 15 kt, becoming variable early, then, becoming S.
