.SYNOPSIS FOR NEW ENGLAND WATERS...Strong, broad low pressure
over the Canadian Maritimes will move SE today and tonight as
weak high pressure builds E into the area. A surface trough or
two associated with the broad low will also move SE across the
waters. High pressure diminishes over the area late tonight, as
low pressure emerging off of the Carolinas late tonight and early
Sat rapidly intensifies and moves just S and SE of the waters
through Sat night. Mariners planning voyages off of the east
coast should monitor forecasts and prepare for avoidance. The low
will move well out into the N Atlantic Sun, with high pressure
gradually building E over the waters Sun through early Mon. Weak
low pressure should develop along a surface trough in the Gulf of
Maine Mon, and the low will linger through Tue while gradually
intensifying and then shifting E and SE Tue night.
