.SYNOPSIS...High pressure to the E of the area will persistently
extend a ridge over the S waters through Thu 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 move little to the N Sun
night into Mon as several more weak low pressure areas track NE
along the front. The front is expected to lift N of the area
later Tue and Tue night as a warm front. Another weak low will
move NE along the front just N of the area Wed night. On Thu and
Thu night a cold front will attempt to move into the far N waters
Thu night. Chesapeake NAVTEX continues to be reported inoperable.
Technicians are aware. We apologize for the inconvenience.
