Behind the front, the aforementioned ridge rebuilds into our

becomes located along the northwestern flank of the ridge as the
core of the ridge becomes located offshore the southeastern United
States. A weak cold front should sweep eastward across Lake Erie
on Tuesday and be followed by another ridge averaging 30.00 inches
and building from the Upper Midwest.
