 A frontal boundary south of the waters will move back north late
 tonight into Friday morning. Meanwhile, strong low pressure over
 the Great Lakes will move northeast into northern New England by
 Friday evening. The associated cold front will pass across the
 waters Friday Night, with strong high pressure building across the
 Great Lakes into the Middle Atlantic by Sunday. There is lower
 confidence that an area of low pressure could develop along the
 cold front and linger off the southeast coast Sunday into Monday.
