.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...Low pressure E of the region will
continue moving E and SE tonight while the associated cold front
drifts slowly S across the central waters. The front will weaken
and stall over the S waters early Sat, and then dissipate by late
Sat into Sat night. High pressure will build S and SE over the
waters N of the front tonight through Sat. The high will
dominate most of the area Sat night into Sun, before sliding off
to the E and NE of the waters Sun night as a weak cold front
approaches the coast. The front will remain near the coast Mon,
slowly move SE over the N waters Mon night into Tue, then stall
over the central waters Tue night. On Wed, the front will begin
to slowly lift N as a warm front across the central and N waters,
then move N of the area Wed night.
