Seas given as significant wave height, which is the average height of the highest 1/3 of the waves. Individual waves may be more than twice the significant wave height.

ANZ899-210930- 519 PM EDT Sun Sep 20 2026 .SYNOPSIS FOR MID ATLC WATERS...A stationary front extending off the Carolinas will drift N into tonight. A cold front will approach from the NW tonight as low pressure tracks E and NE while passing near or just N of the waters. A trailing cold front will move S and SE and reach the far northern waters by early Mon, moving further S over the northern into the central waters during the day Mon. The front will likely stall from near the Virginia Capes eastward Mon night through Tue night as low pressure develops S of the frontal boundary and moves slowly N and NE. Complex, strengthening, low pressure will move very slowly N, along or S of the front, Wed through Fri night. Strong high pressure will build N of the region while interacting with the frontal boundary and complex low pressure system over the area to generate strong NE to E gales, and potentially storm force winds and building seas Tue through Thu night mainly over the central and northern waters. Mariners are urged to closely monitor the latest OPC and coastal National Weather Service forecasts over the coming days, and begin to develop avoidance plans for this potentially significant weather event. $$ ANZ820-210930- Hudson Canyon to Baltimore Canyon to 1000 FM- 519 PM EDT Sun Sep 20 2026 ...GALE WARNING... .TONIGHT...S winds 10 to 15 kt, becoming W to SW.
