Weather / Marine Zone Forecast
MARINE WEATHER - 1041 AM EDT Mon Apr 22 2024
.SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...Developing low pressure across
the southern waters will pull an associated cold front E early
today as another front approaches the N waters and weakens. The
low pressure will intensify over the outer areas of the southern
and central waters later today into tonight, with the strong low
pressure then tracking further E of the central and northern
waters Tue into Tue night. All mariners should monitor the latest
forecast and progress of this strengthening low, and execute
avoidance plans as necessary. Thunderstorms are likely near the
front and low mainly over the central and S mid Atlantic waters
today and outer waters later tonight. Gusty winds and rough seas
are possible in these thunderstorms and mariners should use
caution. The intense low will move NE away from the region Wed as
the next cold front begins to move off the New Jersey and
Delmarva coasts. The cold front will move SE over the northern
and central waters Wed night into Thu, and will stall across the
S waters Thu night into Fri. High pressure will build SE into the
N and central areas Fri and Fri night.
