.SYNOPSIS...A high pressure ridge will remain persistent over the
S waters through Wed night. A nearly stationary front will extend
E over the offshore waters from either the Virginia or North
Carolina coastlines through late Sun. Several weak low pressure
centers will track E along the front during this time. The front
will gradually move N as a warm front later Sun night through Tue
night as low pressure inland lifts the front N of the area by
Wed. Another weak low will move NE along the front just N of the
area Wed night. Chesapeake NAVTEX continues to be reported
inoperable. Technicians are aware. We apologize for the
inconvenience.
