.SYNOPSIS...A cold front will approach from the NW early
tonight, reach the N waters late tonight, and then stall over the
area Mon into Mon night. Low pressure will develop along the
stalled front inland over the SE U.S. Mon night. The low will
lift NE along the front while passing N of the waters Tue while
intensifying. A cold front extending S and SW from the system
will sweep SE across the waters late Tue and Tue night. High
pressure will build over the waters Wed, and then weaken Wed
night into Thu. Yet another cold front will reach the N portions
Thu night into early Fri while becoming nearly stationary. The
front will begin to lift N away from the waters as low pressure
organizes along the front later Fri and Fri night. Mariners
should monitor the latest forecasts for possible deployment of
avoidance plans related to the intensifying low set to impact the
area and points to the N and NE Tue into Tue night.
