move SE over the waters Mon, and then weaken and dissipate Mon

into Tue, and then shift well E of the waters Tue night while
maintaining a ridge across the area as a strong low pressure area
passes SE of the region. Another low and associated cold front
will approach the waters early Wed, then cross the region later
Wed into Wed night. High pressure will again build E across the
