a weak warm front Sun night into Mon. Meanwhile, high pressure

builds SE across the waters behind the front tonight, then shifts

E Sun and Sun night. Low pressure moves to near Long Island late

Sun night, then tracks slowly E across waters just N of the area

Mon through Tue, before clearing NE of the area Tue night into

Wed. The low pulls a cold front across the N portions Mon and Mon

night, with the front stalling over the central waters Tue

through Wed night while slowly weakening. The front will slowly

return N as a weak warm front Thu, reaching the N waters Thu

night.
