SYNOPSIS FOR MASSACHUSETTS AND RHODE ISLAND COASTAL WATERS
A RIDGE OF HIGH PRES BUILDS ACROSS THE WATERS THIS EVENING. ANOTHER
LOW PRESS WILL MOVE ACROSS THE WATERS FRI INTO FRI NIGHT. OTHERWISE,
THE MAIN FOCUS WILL BE ON THE POTENTIAL FOR A RAPIDLY INTENSIFYING
LOW PRES PASSING NEAR OR SE OF THE 40N/70W BENCHMARK LATER SUN INTO
MON. IF THIS SYSTEM TRACKS CLOSE ENOUGH TO THE BENCHMARK, VERY
STRONG WINDS AND HIGH SEAS WOULD OCCUR.
