SYNOPSIS FOR EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA COASTAL WATERS
SCA WINDS AND SEAS CONTINUE ACROSS OUR WATERS THIS AFTERNOON AHEAD
OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE
EAST ACROSS THE AREA AHEAD OF THE FRONT THIS EVENING AND SOME OF
THEM COULD PRODUCE STRONG TO SEVERE WIND GUSTS. AS THE FRONT
CROSSES TONIGHT, THE RISK OF HAZARDOUS CONVECTIVE WINDS WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH EARLY TOMORROW MORNING. WINDS WILL SHIFT TO A
N'RLY DIRECTION AND EASE THROUGH THE DAY ON MONDAY WITH SEAS
QUICKLY FOLLOWING SUIT. ANOTHER FRONT WILL CROSS THE AREA ON
TUESDAY AND ITS NORTHERLY POST-FRONTAL SURGE WILL CAUSE BOATING
CONDITIONS TO DETERIORATE ONCE AGAIN WITH ELEVATED SEAS
POTENTIALLY LINGERING INTO LATE WEEK.
