.SYNOPSIS...A stationary front will linger along the coast today
before moving SE across the waters tonight and Sun, then
dissipating Sun night into Mon. Another weak cold front or low
pressure trough will approach the coast later Mon, stall near the
coast Mon night into Tue, then dissipate Tue night. A stronger
cold front will approach the coast Tue and Wed. Otherwise, high
