347 AM EDT SUN JUL 9 2000

SYNOPSIS: HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD ACROSS THE REGION ON TODAY.
ANOTHER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM APPROACHING FROM THE WEST WILL AFFECT THE
REGION TONIGHT AND MONDAY.

TECHNICAL DISCUSSION:
NARROW RIDGE WILL BRING SUN TO ALL AREAS THIS MORNING BUT CLOUDS
WILL BE ON THE INCREASE DURING THE AFTERNOON. HOWEVER CLOUDS THIS
AFTERNOON WILL BE SLOW TO THICKEN UP SO SHOULD BE PLENTY OF TIME
FOR TEMPS TO REACH 70S EVERYWHERE. ETA SEEMS TO HAVE BETTER HANDLE ON
TIMING OF PRECIPITATION SO WILL NOT START RAIN FROM NEXT SYSTEM UNTIL
LATER IN EVENING. EXPECT UNSETTLED CONDITIONS TO PERSIST THROUGH
MONDAY AS GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO INDICATE UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM DEEPENING
JUST TO NORTH OF THE FORECAST AREA BY EARLY MONDAY.

EXTENDED FORECAST:
NEW AVN CONTINUES TO SHOW CYCLONIC FLOW OVER THE AREA THROUGH 72
HOURS SO WILL KEEP SHOWERS IN FORECAST FOR MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY.

COASTAL WATERS:
CONDITIONS WILL STAY BELOW SCA THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD. WILL
LOWER VISIBILITY TONIGHT DUE TO RAIN AND FOG AND DUE TO SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ON MONDAY.
