AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
402 AM EST SUN JAN 1 2006

.SYNOPSIS...
WE CONTINUE TO SEE A VIGOROUS YET ZONAL UPPER FLOW BRINGING A
PLETHORA OF SHORT WAVES ACROSS THE COUNTRY OVER THE NEXT WEEK TO TEN
DAYS. THE NEW GFS LONG RANGE DOES PAINT A CHANGE IN THE OFFING,
HOWEVER, WITH WEST COAST TROUGHING REPLACED BY A PACIFIC NORTHWEST
RIDGING OVER BAJA TROUGHING. PERHAPS THIS WILL BE THE PRECURSOR TO A
RENEWED PACIFIC-NORTH AMERICAN PATTERN WITH EAST COAST TROUGHING
SETTING UP BY MID JANUARY. OR, IF THIS PATTERN WERE TO PERSIST, IT
MAY RESULT IN SOUTHERN STREAM ENERGY DOMINATING FOR A WEEK OR TWO.

IN THE SHORT TERM, THOUGH, WEVE GOT A SIGNIFICANT MIXED
PRECIPITATION EVENT STARING US IN THE FACE STARTING LATE TONIGHT,
WITH THE GUTS OF IT MONDAY INTO EARLY MONDAY NIGHT. ANOTHER TROUGH
DEVELOPS ALONG THE EAST COAST LATE THIS WEEK, RESULTING IN A FAIRLY
FULL LATITUDE TROUGH AND A CLOSED LOW OVER AND JUST NORTH OF THE
GREAT LAKES BY THURSDAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM (TODAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT)...
FOR TODAY, THERE ARE LOTS OF HOLES IN THE CLOUD LAYERS OVER THE
CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN ZONES, AND AS A RESULT THE LIGHT FOG THAT
FORMED IN THE WAKE OF THE PRECIPITATION HAS WORSENED A BIT DUE TO
THE RADIATIONAL COOLING. SO, WELL START OFF WITH PATCHY FOG AND
SCATTERED TO BROKEN CLOUDS. GENERALLY, WELL SAY MOSTLY CLOUDY
BECOMING PARTLY CLOUDY NORTH AND PARTLY CLOUDY ELSEWHERE WITH DRY
CONDITIONS TODAY.

THEN, TURNING OUR ATTENTION TO LATE TONIGHT AND MONDAY, BOTH THE NAM
AND GFS SHOW PRECIPITATION SPREADING EASTWARD INTO THE AREA LATE
TONIGHT. SURFACE TEMPERATURES ARE GOING TO BE JUST BELOW TO WELL
BELOW FREEZING OVER THE NORTHERN ZONES, AND EVEN IF PRECIPITATION
STARTS OUT AS A BRIEF PERIOD OF SNOW, IT SHOULD RAPIDLY
WARM THE LOWER ATMOSPHERE TO CAUSE RAIN FALLING OVER FREEZING
SURFACES. MOS GUIDANCE DOES SHOW THAT MPO HAS DIFFICULTY IN REACHING
THE MID 30S MONDAY, AND OFTEN IN THESE SITUATIONS MOS IS OVERDONE
AND TEMPERATURES REMAIN AROUND 30 OR AT FREEZING. THIS COULD RESULT
IN A PROLONGED ICING EVENT, AND THE 00Z NAM FOUS ACCUMULATED CLOSE
TO A HALF INCH LIQUID FOR IPT BY MIDDAY MONDAY. SO, WE FELT THAT IT
WAS NECESSARY TO ISSUE A WINTER STORM WATCH FOR THE NORTHERN THREE
ZONES (MAINLY) FOR FREEZING RAIN LATE TONIGHT AND MONDAY. THERE
COULD BE MORE FREEZING RAIN MONDAY NIGHT, BUT BY THEN WE WILL HAVE
MIGRATED TO WARNINGS OR ADVISORIES.

OTHERWISE, SPC PLACED ALL OF OUR AREA IN A GENERAL THUNDERSTORM
AREA FOR MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT WE OPTED TO INCLUDE A CHANCE OF
THUNDERSTORMS FOR THE SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL PORTIONS OF THE AREA AS
STRONG FLOW COUPLED WITH COLD AIR ADVECTION ALOFT COULD RESULT IN
SCATTERED ELEVATED CONVECTION. WE ALSO MENTIONED RAIN HEAVY AT TIMES
IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

REGARDING TEMPERATURES AND WINDS, MOS GUIDANCE WAS CLOSE, EXCEPT WE
WENT COLDER TONIGHT ESPECIALLY NORTH WHERE ANY EARLY RADIATION AND
REMNANT SNOW COVER WILL CAUSE A SHARP TEMPERATURE DROP.

&&

.LONG TERM (TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)...
WE ACCEPTED THE PREVIOUS SOLUTION OF ANOTHER PRECIPITATION EVENT,
MIXED FOR THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE AREA, FOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND
THURSDAY. WE DID NOT MAKE ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO ANY OF THE
GRIDS, OTHER THAN FOR THE SAKE OF COLLABORATIVE IMPROVEMENT.

&&

.AVIATION...
VSBYS DROPPED LIKE A ROCK DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS THROUGHOUT THE
FA, ESPECIALLY AT RDG WITH 1/4SM FG. VSBYS SHOULD REMAIN LOW TIL
AROUND SUNRISE OR SO, THEN IMPROVE WHEN THE SUN COMES UP OR WHEN THE
WIND INCREASES A BIT, WHICHEVER COMES FIRST. ONCE VFR CONDITIONS
BECOME RE-ESTABLISHED, THEY SHOULD STICK AROUND INTO SUNDAY NIGHT
BEFORE PRECIPITATION FROM THE NEXT SYSTEM ARRIVES DURING THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS, GENERALLY AFTER 6Z MONDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
QUIET CONDITIONS EXPECTED OVER THE MARINE WATERS TODAY AND MONDAY,
BUT SCA CONDITIONS EXPECTED FOR SEAS AND PERHAPS WINDS TUESDAY INTO
WEDNESDAY AS COMPLEX LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM APPROACHES FROM THE WEST
BEFORE MOVING OUT TO SEA.

&&

.COAST...
TODAY/S MID-MORNING HIGH TIDE LEVELS WILL BE THE HIGHEST FOR THE
DAILY TIDE CYCLE, AND COULD RESULT IN SOME MINOR SPILLOVER IN A FEW
SPOTS, ESPECIALLY ALONG THE NEW JERSEY COAST. HOWEVER, NOTHING MORE
THAN NUISANCE FLOODING IS EXPECTED, IF THAT.
