.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...A cold front will approach from
the W and NW early tonight, then move SE over the N and central
waters overnight into Mon. The front will likely stall over the
far S waters later Mon into Mon night as high pressure builds in
across the N and central waters. Low pressure will develop along
the stationary front just inland over Georgia and S Carolina Mon
night, with the low intensifying while lifting NE from near the
Outer Banks Tue to near Georges Bank Tue night. A cold front
extending S from the low will move quickly E and SE across the
waters late Tue into Tue night. High pressure will build over the
waters Wed, persist Wed night, and then weaken early Thu. Yet
another cold front will move SE over the N and central portions
late Thu before stalling across the far S waters Thu night. High
pressure will build E over the N waters Fri into Fri night. The
front and developing low pressure will begin to move back to the
N over the S and central waters late Fri into Fri night. Mariners
should monitor the latest forecasts for the intensifying low
pressure system set to impact the region Mon night into Wed, and
begin to strongly consider avoidance routing at this time.
