Weather / Marine Zone Forecast

MARINE WEATHER: 929 AM EST Tue Nov 11 2025
 
 .SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...A broad, complex low pressure
center will lift NE of the area early today, pulling a strong
cold front E across the far outer waters. A secondary,
reinforcing cold front will then quickly push E to NE across the
region early today. A high pressure ridge will pass quickly E
across the area later today and tonight. Another strengthening
cold front will move across the N portions Wed, clearing E of the
waters Wed night, and followed by a series of low pressure
troughs or weak cold fronts Thu and Thu night. Another cold front
will approach from the N Fri, move into the N portions Fri night,
then continue S across the remainder of the waters Sat and Sat
night. High pressure will build over the S waters later today and
tonight, then shift E Wed. High pressure will rebuild across the
S waters Thu into Sat, then shift S and dissipate ahead of the
passing cold front. High pressure will build offshore across the
S waters following the cold front Sat night.
