.SYNOPSIS FOR NEW ENGLAND WATERS... A warm front extending E

evening. A cold front will approach the coast and move E across
the waters tonight while the attendant low pressure approaches
the coast. The low will track slowly E near the Maine coast Sun
and Sun night. High pressure will move offshore near the
Virginia Capes late Mon, extending a ridge N across the waters
into Tue. It will then move E of the region later Tue and Tue
night as another cold front approaches from the W. The front
will cross the waters Wed, then clear the area to the S and E
Wed night. A weakening high pressure ridge will pass E across
the waters Thu and Thu night while a warm front approaches the
area from the SW.
