SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS
A HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE WILL
PERSIST ACROSS THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL PORTIONS TONIGHT INTO SUN
NIGHT, THEN SLOWLY LIFT N OF THE AREA MON INTO MON NIGHT. A
STATIONARY FRONT WILL PERSIST S OF THE AREA TONIGHT, THEN SLOWLY
DRIFT N TOWARD THE WATERS SUN AND SUN NIGHT. LOW PRESSURE WILL
DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT BY EARLY MON OFF THE NE FLORIDA COAST,
INTENSIFY NE ACROSS THE SOUTHERN WATERS MON INTO TUE, THEN CLEAR
WELL E OF THE AREA BY TUE NIGHT. STRONG COUNTERFLOW TO THE GULF

CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PORTIONS WED INTO THU, WITH ANOTHER LOW
POSSIBLY DEVELOPING OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST. THEN BY THU AND THU
NIGHT, A BROAD, STRONGER LOW MAY APPROACH THE MID- ATLANTIC
COAST. MARINERS SHOULD MONITOR FORECASTS AND CONSIDER AVOIDANCE
PLANS AS NEEDED WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR MULTIPLE IMPACTFUL SYSTEMS
MON THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK.
