.SYNOPSIS...The low pressure system over the Deep South continues
slowly shifting northeastward, dragging a cold front across the
Florida peninsula today, into the local Atlantic waters by Tuesday
morning, then departing the area late Tuesday. Poor boating
conditions are forecast into Tuesday from fresh southerly winds
and scattered to numerous lightning storms. Conditions improve by
mid-week as high pressure behind the front builds over the area,
ushering in lighter winds and drier conditions.
