.SYNOPSIS...High pressure ridging extending westward from the
central Atlantic to central Florida will slowly shift east-
southeastward through Sat, ahead of a cold front that will 
approach from the northwest. Expect fresh to strong south to 
southwest winds ahead of the front tonight through late Fri 
between the northern Bahamas and Bermuda. The front is expected 
to move off the northeast Florida coast Fri night, then weaken
as it moves east reaching from near Bermuda to the central
Bahamas by late Sat night. Winds and seas will diminish into Mon 
as the dissipating front continues to drift east of the area, and 
high pressure builds between the Carolinas and Bermuda in the wake
of front. Looking ahead, southeast winds will increase and seas 
will build late Mon through Tue night off northeast Florida and 
north of the Bahamas, as the high pressure shifts eastward ahead 
of the next weak front that is expected to move across the 
southeastern United States.
