AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE STATE COLLEGE PA
313 AM EST SUN DEC 23 2007

.SYNOPSIS...

A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL RAIN AND WINDS TODAY. WINDS OVERNIGHT
TONIGHT INTO EARLY CHRISTMAS EVE. THE LARGE SCALE PATTERN THEN SHOWS
A SERIES OF STRONG PACIFIC WAVES DROPPING INTO THE WESTERN US AND
HEIGHTS BUILDING OVER OUR REGION. ANTICYCLONES WILL DOMINATE OUR
WEATHER FOR MOST OF THE COMING WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 11 AM THIS MORNING/...

EXPOSED AREAS WILL BE BREEZY THIS MORNING. PROTECTED VALLEY
LOCATIONS SHOW CALM CONDITIONS WHICH SHOULD ERODE LATER THIS
MORNING. TEMPERATURES SHOULD RISE INTO THE 40S LATER THIS MORNING.
A STRONG COLD FRONT TO OUR WEST WILL INCREASE THE CHANCE OF
SHOWERS IN WESTERN AREAS BETWEEN 9 AND 11 AM.

FOG AND PERIOD OF DRIZZLE ARE POSSIBLE IN EASTERN AREAS THROUGH
8-10 AM.

THE THREAT OF LIGHT PASSING SHOWERS WILL INCREASE OVER EASTERN
AREAS AS WILL THE SOUTH-SOUTHEASTERLY WINDS. TEMPERATURES COULD
RISE TO NEAR 50 BY LATE MORNING IN SOME LOCATIONS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /11 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH 6 PM MONDAY/...

AS THE STRONG FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE REGION FROM WEST TO
EAST...THE SOUTHEASTERLY WINDS WILL INCREASE. THERE COULD BE SOME
GUSTS TO NEAR 30 MPH LATER THIS MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON. MOST
AREAS AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL SEE ONLY PATCH SHOWERS. TEMPERATURES
WILL MAINLY BE IN THE 40S BUT COULD RISE TO THE 50S JUST AHEAD OF
THE STRONGER SHOWERS AND THE COLD FRONT.

A BAND OF STRONG RAIN SHOWERS...AND PERHAPS AN ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORM..WILL MOVE FROM WEST TO EAST ACROSS THE STATE LATE THIS
MORNING AND THIS AFTERNOON. A FEW HOURS OF MODERATE RAIN IS
EXPECTED. A FEW THUNDERSTORMS COULD BRING SOME STRONG WINDS TO THE
SURFACE. MOST AREAS WILL SEE 0.5 TO 1 INCH OF RAINFALL MAINLY WITH
SHOWERS JUST AHEAD...ALONG AND BEHIND THE COLD FRONT.

COLD AIR WILL RUSH IN BEHIND THE FRONT THIS AFTERNOON IN THE WEST
AND THIS EVENING IN THE EAST. RESIDUAL SHOWERS SHOULD TURN TO SNOW
SHOWERS IN THE WEST. IT WILL TURN SHARPLY COLDER THIS AFTERNOON AND
TONIGHT. THERE WILL BE STRONG GUSTY WINDS. SOME OF THE RIDGE TOPS
COULD SEE WIND GUSTS OVER 60 MPH LATER THIS EVENING. MOST AREAS WILL
SEE THE POTENTIAL FOR ADVISORY CATEGORY WINDS WITH GUSTS IN THE 30
TO 40 MPH RANGE.

WE CUT THE PRECIPITATION OFF FAST THIS EVENING. THE SREF PLUMES
SHOW MOST MEMBERS WITH THE RAIN OVER BY 2100 UTC. MOST SHOW SOME
SNOW IN WESTERN AREAS WITH A CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS IN CENTRAL
AREAS. MOST AREAS SHOULD SEE ONLY SPRINKLES OR FLURRIES
OVERNIGHT...EXCEPT FOR SNOW SHOWER PORTIONS OF NW PA AND THE
HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF THE WESTERN MOUNTAINS.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...

CHRISTMAS EVE SHOULD BE A BREEZY DAY WITH SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES.
SNOW SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE IN THE NORTHWESTERN COUNTIES DURING THE
DAY AND INTO THE EVENING.  THE WINDS SHOULD SLOWLY DIMINISH IN THE
EVENING.

HIGH PRESSURE SHOULD DOMINATE CHRISTMAS DAY WITH PARTLY SUNNY SKIES.
TEMPERATURES MAINLY IN THE 30S AND 40S.

THE HIGH PRESSURE WHICH WILL PROVIDE THE QUIET WEATHER FOR CHRISTMAS
SHOULD DRIFT TO OUR EAST ALLOWING A WEAKENING PACIFIC FRONT INTO THE
REGION WED-THUR. THIS COULD TRIGGER SOME LIGHT SNOW OR SNOW AND RAIN
ACTIVITY. PRECIPITATION IN IN ABOUT 40 PERCENT OF THE ENSEMBLE
MEMBERS.

HIGH PRESSURE RAPIDLY BUILDS IN THU-FRI SO THESE TWO DAYS SHOULD BE
RELATIVELY QUITE WEATHER WISE.

THE NEXT BEST CHANCE OF RAIN OR SNOW AND RAIN IN THE ENSEMBLES IS
FOR THE WEEKEND. MOST MEMBERS SHOW SOME CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION.
MOST LIKELY SCENARIO IS A LOW MOVING UP FROM THE WEST AND INTO THE
GREAT LAKES.

TEMPERATURES APPEAR TO BE CLOSE TO NORMAL DURING THE COURSE OF THE
WEEK UNTIL LATE IN THE WEEK WHEN THE ENSEMBLES HINT AT SLIGHTLY
ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES AHEAD OF THE POTENTIAL RAIN OR RAIN/SNOW
EVENT AROUND THE WEEKEND.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...

RELATIVELY WARMER SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL INCREASE THROUGH MID
MORNING AS A FRONT APPROACHES THE AREA. NEAR THE SURFACE...
SOUTHEAST WINDS WILL KEEP COOLER AIR TRAPPED SO LLWS WILL BE
COMMON. WINDS FROM 170-180 DEGREES UP TO 40KTS ARE POSSIBLE FROM
FL020 AND UP OVERNIGHT. THESE WINDS WILL MIX DOWN DURING THE DAY
SUNDAY AS THE FRONT APPROACHES MAKING FOR QUITE A TURBULENT DAY.

IFR CLOUDS WILL CONTINUE OVERNIGHT AS LOW LEVEL MOIST AIR IS
TRAPPED UNDER THE BRISK WINDS ALOFT. ALSO...AS MILDER AIR DOES
MAKE ITS WAY TO THE SURFACE...IT WILL OVERRUN LINGERING SLEET AND
SNOW COVER. FOG IS POSSIBLE OVER THE HIGHER ELEVATION FIELDS.

MOST OF THE RAIN ON SUNDAY SHOULD BE CONFINED TO THE FEW HOURS
CLOSEST TO THE COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE...WHICH SHOULD BE AROUND
18-19Z IN THE WEST AND 22-23Z IN THE FAR EASTERN COS.

BEHIND THE FRONT LATER SUN INTO SUN NIGHT...THE SFC WINDS WILL
TURN WESTERLY...INCREASE AND BECOME QUITE GUSTY. THE WESTERLY
UPSLOPE FLOW WILL KEEP LOWER CIGS AND PERHAPS SOME -SHSN IN THE
HIGHER TERRAIN SITES OF KBFD/KJST BUT REMAINDER OF CWA WILL
TRANSITION BACK TO VFR FOR MONDAY AND TUESDAY.
