then slowly move SE into the waters Thu and Thu night as 

developing low pressure tracks N and NE along the front. As the 

trailing cold front moves S it will stall across the far S waters

late Fri through Sat. High pressure will build offshore across 

the waters N of the stalled front Fri into Sat, then clear E of

the area later Sat. The stalled front will lift N across the 

area Sat and Sat night, clearing N of the area by Sun. A ridge 

will briefly build across the waters from the W Sun, then weaken

Sun night ahead of a cold front approaching the coast.
