.SYNOPSIS...A cold front extends from the central Atlantic SW to
23N55W to NE Puerto Rico. Moderate to fresh N to NE winds and 
rough seas to 12 ft are ongoing N of the tail of the front
between 55W and 65W. The tail of the front will stall tonight
before it starts lifting N through Sun when it will start to 
dissipate. Large NW to W swell behind the front will shift E and 
SE through Fri. Winds and seas will diminish from west to east 
through Fri as high pressure builds over the western Atlantic in 
the wake of the front. Winds are forecast to reach fresh to strong
speeds again north of 22N and E of the Bahamas this weekend as 
the pressure gradient tightens between the remnants of the front 
and strong high pressure to the north. These winds will support 
building rough seas across E of the Bahamas. Looking ahead, a 
strong cold front will push off the SE United States coast early 
Mon preceded and followed by fresh to strong winds. The front will
reach from 31N70W to the southern Bahamas and eastern Cuba by Tue
