This front is expected to pass across the area on Wednesday night, bringing cooler and more pleasant weather conditions to the region for the end of the week. Surface high pressure will shift eastward off the coast of the Carolinas early this weekend, maintaining strong winds over the Atlantic waters. Otherwise, pleasant marine conditions will persist into early next week, as an upper-level ridge of high pressure builds over the area.
