.Synopsis for Eastern North Carolina coastal waters...
Another front will cross the area on today. A strong ridge of
high pressure builds in from the north behind the front as a low
slides E'wards along the front well to the south, tightening the
pressure gradient. This will bring a rather potent post frontal
Nerly surge starting tonight with hazardous marine conditions
lingering across at least portions of our coastal waters
potentially into this weekend.
