SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS
A strong cold front will move E of the waters tonight. High pressure will build over the S waters late tonight with a low pressure trough passing through the N waters. High pressure will build over the entire area Fri, then move quickly E late Fri as a warm front develops over the N waters, and a cold front approaches the central and S waters. Behind broad low pressure to the N of the area, the cold front will push E of the N and central waters overnight Fri and early Sat, becoming stationary over the S waters Sat and Sat night under otherwise high pressure. As high pressure moves E Sun, the front will lift N as a warm front, moving N of the area Sun night. Another strong cold front approaches from the W Mon and moves through the area Mon night and early Tue, with a secondary cold front moving through the N and central waters Tue and Tue night. High pressure builds in from the W late Tue night.
