.SYNOPSIS FOR NEW ENGLAND WATERS...A stationary front across the

Intensifying low pressure will pass SE of Georges Bank Tue night
into Wed. Another low pressure and associated cold front will
approach the area early Wed, then cross the region Wed, then
move E and SE of the waters Wed night. A stronger high pressure
will again build slowly E across the waters Thu and Thu night,
and then prevail across the area Fri through Sat, then move S
