AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
320 PM EDT SUN APR 30 2006

.OVERVIEW...
OMEGA BLOCK THAT HAS BEEN PROVIDING OUR CWA WITH PICTURE POSTCARD WX
WILL BE BREAKING DOWN IN THIS FCST PERIOD. IN SPITE OF THE CLEAR
BLUE SKIES...THERE ARE ISSUES WITH RESPECT TO FROST...TIDES AND FIRE
WX. A FIRE WX WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR A GOOD CHUNK OF OUR CWA FOR
MON. PCPN ASSOCD WITH THE OCEANIC STORM IS EXPECTED TO RMN JUST AS
IN JUST E OF OUR CWA TUE-WED. AS FLOW BCMS PROGRESSIVE AGN...CDFNT
MIGHT TRIGGER SOME SCTD PCPN THU-FRI WITH A MORE SGFCNT AND POORLY
TIMED PCPN EVENT PSBL FOR NEXT WEEKEND. COULD STILL BE A FROSTY
NIGHT TNGT AND ADVYS HAVE BEEN HOISTED IN THE MORE SUSCEPTIBLE LOCNS
AWAY FROM THE OCEANIC STORM GRADIENT. THE GFS INIT LOOKS MUCH BETTER
THAN THE NAM NOT ONLY WITH RESPECT TO THE CLOSED LOW IN SW IA...BUT
ALSO WITH THE RDGG ALG THE APLCHNS. BOTH MDLS H8 INIT LOOKED PRETTY
GOOD. THE GFS WAS GENERALLY FOLLOWED IN THE MED RNG PERIOD TUE/WED
OVR THE NAM.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
CONFID IS NOT AS HIGH ABT FROST ADVY AS LAST NGT. IN OUR NWRN ZONES
BLV WINDS WILL DECOUPLE. PBLM MAY BE MORE OF A FREEZE AND LESS OF A
FROST AS DEWPTS ARE STILL LOW. THE DEWPTS ARE SUPPOSE TO RISE OVRNGT
INCRG THE CHCS. OTHER FLY IN THE OINTMENT IS PSBL CI COMING OVER THE
RIDGE. RIDGE DOES FLATTEN OVRNGT AND MIGHT PERMIT MORE CI TWD MRNG.
LOCNS DID HAVE FREEZING TEMPS LAST NGT BUT BECAUSE OF LESS
DECOUPLING AND MORE THAN ZIPPO CI WE HAVE OPTED TO NOT GO FREEZE,
BUT ISSUE A FROST ADVY IN FAR NWRN ZNS. IN THE NJ PINE BARRENS WE
BLV WINDS WON/T DECOUPLE LONG ENUF (OR AT ALL) TO CAUSE A WDSPRD
FROST/FREEZE. WE WILL JUST MNTN SOME PATCHY FROST THERE AS SHELTERED
LOCNS DO LIKE TO DECOUPLE IN SPITE WHAT THE MDLS SHOW. IN GENERAL WE
HAVE GONE A BIT BLO GUID FOR MIN TEMPS.

OUTSIDE OF FIRE WX CONCERNS...A SUNNY START TO MAY ON TAP TMRW. GRAD
BTWN OCEANIC STORM AND HI PRES OVR CAN MARITIMES WILL ONCE AGN MAKE
FOR A BREEZY DAY. NAM MOS LOOKS A BIT TOO TOASTY WITH THEIR MAX
TEMPS AND WILL COMP BTWN THE TWO GUID DATASETS. IN SPITE OF THE
ONSHR FLOW...LLVL MSTR SHLD BE TOO SCANTY TO PERMIT MUCH CU/SC TO
FORM ALG/NEAR THE COAST. GRAD RELAXES AGAIN ON MONDAY NGT...SO TNGT
MAY NOT NECESSARILY BE THE LAST THREAT FOR FROST OR FREEZE IN OUR
NWRN CTYS. GRAD WOULD SUPPORT MORE WDSPRD RDTNL COOLING MON NGT THAN
TNGT. GIVEN ON HOW THE MDLS TEND TO RECOVER THE DEWPTS TOO MUCH...WE
WENT WITH SIM MIN TEMPS TO TNGT. OCEANIC STORM COMES CLOSER ON TUE
AND WITH THE BREAKDOWN OF THE RDG PART OF THE OMEGA BLOCK WELL UNDER
WAY...WE COULD SEE SOME MID/HI LVL CLDS. MAX TEMP GUID IS CLUSTERED
TIGHTER THAN THEY ARE FOR MON AND WILL BE FOLLOWED AS THEY LOOK
REASONABLE BASED ON FCSTD H8 TEMPS AND LLVL THICK.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
MSRBL PCPN FROM OCEANIC STORM IS SUPPOSE TO GET THISCLOSE TO OUR
NERN ZNS TUE NGT AND WED...A FEAT THAT THE GFS HAS BEEN PRETTY
CONSIST. MOST OTHER MDLS ARE AT OR FTHR E THAN THE GFS SO WE WILL
KEEP THE ZONES DRY FROM THE E THREAT. AS FOR THE SHRT WV APCHG FROM
THE MIDWEST ON WED DAY WE BLV THE GFS FUJI-WARA-ING OF IT S OF OUR
CWA MAKES MORE PHYSICAL SENSE THAN THE NAM OR WRF FTHR N SOLN. THE
GFS SOLN IS SUPPORTED BY THE CAN SEF. SO SHRAS HAVE BEEN REMOVED
FROM WED. BTWN THE 00Z AND 12Z RUNS MDLS ARE PRETTY DIVERGENT IN
TIMING OF CFP THU/FRI. SO WHL THE CHC DOES EXIST FROM LATE THURSDAY
AFTN INTO FRI...NEITHER DAY WON/T BE A WASH-OUT. THE GFS IS GETTING
CLOSER TO SUPPORTING THUNDER AS THERE IS NOW A BIT OF CAPE AND SFC
LI/S GETTING CLOSE TO ZERO. HAVE NOT ADDED YET...BUT IF TREND
CONTS...

THE MORE SGFNCT PCPN IS PSBL AROUND SAT AS THE H5 TROF IS FCSTD TO
DIG IN THE ERN CONUS AND A SGFCNT FOR MAY AREA OF LO PRES DVLPS.
THIS WOULD KEEP UP WITH THE TRADITION OF HAVING ANOTHER SOAKING SAT
EVERY OTHER SAT THAT WE STARTED ON 4/8 IF IT COMES TO FRUITION. EVEN
HERE THERE HAVE BEEN MDL DIFS WITH RESPECT TO THE TIMING OF THE
DIGGING AND EVENTUAL FORMATION OF THE WAVE. BUT THERE IS GENERAL
AGREEMENT THAT IT WILL OCR AND CONFID IS HIER THAT THIS WILL
OCR...ESP SINCE ITS TIMED FOR A WEEKEND. THE 12Z GFS SOLN IS SLGTLY
FASTER THAN ITS 00Z SOLN WHICH IS MORE IN LINE WITH THE OVRNGT ECMWF
EVEN THO THE LATTERS SFC LOW SOLN LOOKS TOO ROBUST FOR ERLY MAY.
THU LOOKS LIKE THE WARMEST DAY OF THIS FCST PKG.

&&

.AVIATION...
VFR CONDITIONS WITH MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES AND GOOD VISIBILITIES
THROUGH MONDAY. THERE MAY BE SOME CI FROM TIME TO TIME, BUT IT
CONTINUES TO DRY OUT AS IT MOVES IN FROM THE WEST AND TRIES TO
POKE THROUGH THE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE.

&&

.MARINE...
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT ON THE OCEAN AND LOWER
DELAWARE BAY. THE REGION IS IN BETWEEN TWO LOWS, ONE OFF THE
ATLANTIC COAST AND ANOTHER IN THE CENTRAL PLAINS. THE CIRCULATION
AROUND THE OFFSHORE LOW WILL ALLOW LARGE LONG PERIOD EASTERLY
SWELLS TO CONTINUE THROUGH TUESDAY. THE PRESSURE GRADIENT BETWEEN
THE LOW AND HIGH PRESSURE TO OUR NORTH WILL PRODUCE N TO NE WINDS,
WHICH WILL, IN TURN, PRODUCE WIND WAVES ON TOP OF THE ALREADY
LARGE SWELLS. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES ARE LIKELY TO REMAIN IN
EFFECT ON THE LOWER DELAWARE BAY THROUGH TUESDAY AND ON THE OCEAN
INTO WEDNESDAY. ON DELAWARE BAY, WELL EMPHASIZE THE HIGHEST
WINDS AND SEAS NEAR THE MOUTH OF THE BAY.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
RED FLAG CONDITIONS WERE REACHED BRIEFLY IN SOME LOCATIONS OF
NJ AND THE DELMARVA THIS AFTERNOON. WITH THE DRY CONDITIONS
CONTINUING, AND THE PRESSURE GRADIENT SLIGHTLY TIGHTER MONDAY,
WILL ISSUE A FIRE WEATHER WATCH FOR THE DELMARVA, CENTRAL AND
SOUTHERN NEW JERSEY, AND SOUTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA. WINDS
OVER THE PAST FEW DAYS HAVE BEENS MIXING DOWN DRY AIR AND
LOWERING DEW POINTS BELOW GUIDANCE VALUES. WE EXPECT THIS
TO HAPPEN AGAIN TOMORROW. WINDS WILL BE CRITICAL. EXPECT
SUSTAINED OR FREQUENT GUSTS OVER MUCH OF THE WATCH AREA.
THE WESTERN AND NORTHWEST FRINGE WILL BE MARGINAL BUT THE
MIDNIGHT SHIFT WILL REDEFINE AS NEEDED.

&&

.TIDES...
THE LARGE EASTERLY SWELLS ROTATING AROUND THE OFFSHORE LOW WILL
CONTINUE, ALONG WITH WIND WAVES ON TOP. TIDAL DEPARTURES ARE
BEGINNING TO INCREASE. HEIGHTS ARE CURRENTLY MUCH CLOSER TO THE
SSE VALUES AS OPPOSED TO THE MUCH HIGHER ECS. THEREFORE WE WILL
LEAN TOWARD THE SSE. WILL ISSUE A SPS FOR POSSIBLE MINOR TIDAL
FLOODING AT THE TIMES OF THE NIGHTTIME HIGH TIDES TONIGHT AND
MONDAY NIGHT. EVEN THOUGH THE ASTRONOMICAL HEIGHTS ARE LOWER
MONDAY NIGHT, THE TIDAL DEPARTURE IS FORECAST TO BE GREATER.
THIS IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE A MAJOR EVENT, BUT SPILLOVER IN THE
NORMALLY SUSCEPTIBLE AREAS LOOKS LIKE A POSSIBILITY.

OF DAYS...

LOW PRESSURE OFF THE EAST COAST AND HIGH PRESSURE OVER CANADA WILL
MAINTAIN A EAST TO NORTHEAST FLOW OVER THE COASTAL AREAS TONIGHT
THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT. THESE SUSTAINED WINDS MAY CONTRIBUTE TO THE
DEVELOPMENT OF MINOR TIDAL FLOODING CONDITIONS TONIGHT AND AGAIN
MONDAY NIGHT.

THE HIGHEST TIDES TONIGHT WILL OCCUR BETWEEN 10 PM AND MIDNIGHT
ALONG THE DELAWARE AND NEW JERSEY SHORE AREAS. THE HIGHEST TIDES IN
DELAWARE BAY WILL BE AROUND MIDNIGHT NEAR THE MOUTH OF THE BAY AND
AROUND 5 AM AT PHILADELPHIA. ON MONDAY NIGHT, THE HIGHEST TIDES WILL
OCCUR AROUND 1 HOUR LATER THAN TONIGHTS TIDES. REMEMBER, THE BACK
BAYS USUALLY FLOOD A FEW HOURS AFTER THE TIDES ALONG THE SHORE.

DURING THESE TIMES OF HIGH TIDES IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU PARK
YOUR VEHICLE IN AREAS THAT ARE NOT SUSCEPTIBLE TO TIDAL FLOODING.
YOUR NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE TIDE
LEVELS ALONG THE WATERS AND ISSUE FURTHER STATEMENTS AS NEEDED.
