.SYNOPSIS FOR THE TIDAL POTOMAC AND MD PORTION OF THE CHESAPEAKE BAY...

A cold front will slowly approach from the Ohio River Valley  today,
then cross the waters tonight. High pressure will briefly  follow
for the first half of Sunday as the front stalls nearby. As  the
high weakens and drifts northward, this frontal boundary will
linger in the vicinity of the region during the early to middle
portions of next week.
