.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...A stationary front over the
central portions lifts N as a warm front today. Low pressure
forms along the front just off the New Jersey coast by evening,
then rapidly intensifies NE across the N portions tonight into
Sat. A cold front associated with the low moves S into the S
waters tonight, and the front becomes nearly stationary there
through Sat night as high pressure briefly over the N waters. Low
pressure moves off of the Carolina coast Sat night, with the low
broadening and strengthening as it moves slowly NE off of the
East Coast Sun through Mon night. Mariners should monitor later
forecasts for possible avoidance needs. A series of surface
troughs move across the waters Mon night into Tue. High pressure
builds E into the area later Tue into Tue night.
