.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure centered along the Mid-Atlantic coast will continue to
wedge down the southeastern seaboard, pushing offshore through
Tuesday. Coastal troughing over our near shore waters will lift
northward Tonight, keeping shower activity associated with this
feature mostly confined to the Gulf Stream waters. Atlantic high
pressure will then extend its axis across the Florida peninsula
beginning on Tuesday, creating prevailing southwesterly winds
across our local waters through Wednesday night. Prevailing winds
will become southerly late this week well in advance of a cold
front that will be entering the southeastern states by Saturday
afternoon and evening. Sea fog may be possible on Friday and
Saturday ahead of this approaching front. This front may be
accompanied by showers as it crosses our local waters on Saturday
night and Sunday morning.
