.SYNOPSIS...Mariners should use caution in and near tstms that
develop over the waters tonight, and again Wed into Thu, with the
stronger tstms producing very gusty winds and very rough seas.
Otherwise, high pressure will persist SE of the area tonight
through Sun night. A low pressure trough will stall and remain
near the coast tonight into Wed. A cold front will slowly
approach the area from the W later Wed and Wed night, move slowly
SE over the waters Thu into early Fri, then pass S of the region
by later Fri and Fri night as high pressure builds E over New
England. Another cold front will approach the area from the NW
Sat into Sat night, then move across the waters Sun into Sun
night.
