AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
447 AM EDT WED SEP 24 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE OVER EASTERN CANADA AND THE NORTHEASTERN
U.S. WILL SLIDE EASTWARD TODAY AND TONIGHT. LOW PRESSURE OFF THE
CAROLINA COAST TODAY WILL WOBBLE WESTWARD INTO NORTH CAROLINA
THURSDAY. AS THE LOW MOVES NORTHWARD LATE IN THE WEEK, IT MAY BE
JOINED BY TROPICAL LOW PRESSURE MOVING UP FROM THE EASTERN
CARIBBEAN. THE LOW IS FORECAST TO MOVE NORTHEAST OF OUR REGION
SUNDAY, WITH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING MONDAY AND CRESTING OVER THE
AREA TUESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
NO WEATHER OF SIGNIFICANCE IS EXPECTED IN THE NEAR TERM, WITH THE
MUCH MORE PROBLEMATIC WEATHER HEADING IN FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.
BEFORE SUNRISE, SOME HIGH CLOUDS WERE BULGING WESTWARD FROM THE
CENTRAL MID ATLANTIC COASTAL LOW, AND SOME OF THESE MAY BRUSH OUR
SOUTHEASTERN ZONES THIS MORNING. BUT, OTHERWISE, A BENIGN WEATHER
DAY IS ON TAP. GUIDANCE TEMPERATURES WERE PRETTY UNIFORM AND WERE
ACCEPTED, WITH A RANGE OF UPPER 60S NORTHWEST TO THE MID 70S
CENTRAL AND SOUTH. WINDS WILL START TO INCREASE, ESPECIALLY OVER
SOUTHEASTERN COASTAL ZONES TODAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
THE GRADIENT WOULD SEEM TO EXERT ITS GREATEST INFLUENCE THURSDAY
AND THURSDAY NIGHT, ACCORDING TO MOST OF THE GUIDANCE SOLUTIONS
THIS MORNING. AS SUCH, THE HIGHEST WINDS WERE RESERVED FOR THURSDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. IT WAS TOO EARLY TO ISSUE ANY KIND OF WIND
ADVISORY, BUT THIS MAY NEED TO BE ISSUED BY LATER FORECASTERS FOR
COASTAL ZONES, AT LEAST, WHERE GUSTS MAY NEAR 45 MPH. THERE ARE
TIMES WHEN GUIDANCE UNDERPLAYS THE WIND SPEEDS, AND IT IS
WONDERED IF THIS IS SUCH A TIME. FOR NOW, THE GENERAL STATEMENT
OF STRONG WINDS AND HEAVY RAIN WILL BE LEFT FOR THE HAZARDOUS
WEATHER OUTLOOK TO CARRY THE MESSAGE. RAIN SHOULD BE SPREADING
FROM SOUTHEAST TO NORTHWEST AS THE DAY PROGRESSES, SO GENEROUS
PROBABILITIES FOLLOWING THE GFS GUIDANCE WERE USED.

THEN, POPS WERE RAISED TO CATEGORICAL FOR THURSDAY NIGHT AND
FRIDAY FOR A GOOD CHUNK OF OUR AREA AS THE LOW DRIFTS NORTHWARD
AND CONTINUED STRONG FORCING PLAYS OUT. ONE THING TO WATCH FOR
WILL BE IF ANY STRONG LOW LEVEL INFLOW JETS BECOME PLANTED, ACTING
AS A FOCUS FOR PERSISTENT MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINS. SEE THE
HYDROLOGY SECTION BELOW FOR THINKING ON THIS SUBJECT.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
OF PARTICULAR CONCERN IS THE NOTION THAT HAS BEEN PERSISTENT IN
MODEL SOLUTIONS OF THE PAST FEW DAYS: THAT THE TROPICALLY-
CONNECTED LOW MOVING UP FROM HISPANIOLA BY FRIDAY WILL INTERACT
WITH, AND INDEED MERGE TO A GREAT DEGREE, WITH THE PRIMARY LOW
THAT STAGGERS INTO NORTH CAROLINA THURSDAY. THE CONNECTED
OFFENDERS ARE PROGGED TO DRIFT NORTHWARD FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY,
WITH PERHAPS THE MOST RAINFALL OVER OUR EASTERN ZONES AND TO
POINTS EAST...BUT WITH WRAP-AROUND AND TERRAIN EFFECTS, OUR
NORTHERN ZONES MAY HAVE TO BE WATCHED FOR HIGHER QPF AS FRIDAY
ROLLS INTO SATURDAY. FOR NOW, A MODERATE SOLUTION FOR QPF WAS
USED.

PLEASE FOLLOW INFORMATION THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER AT
WWW.NHC.NOAA.GOV

NOT A LOT OF CHANGE WAS MADE TO THE EXTENDED GRIDS AS CONFIDENCE
IS ONLY LOW TO MIDDLING AT THIS POINT. ONLY SOME BLENDING AND
INTERNAL ADJUSTMENT WAS MADE.

TEMPERATURES WERE LEFT PRETTY MUCH INTACT FROM THE DAY SHIFT, WITH
GFS EXTENDED MOS NUMBERS IN FAIR AGREEMENT WITH PREVIOUS HPC
GUIDANCE.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD PREVAIL THROUGH THE PERIOD, WITH SOME HIGH
LEVEL CLOUDS TO START THE PERIOD, THEN TRANSITIONING TO MORE
MID-LEVEL CLOUDS BY THE END OF THE PERIOD. WINDS WILL START OFF
LIGHT AND GENERALLY OUT OF A NORTH TO NORTHEAST DIRECTION. HOWEVER,
BY MIDDAY, WINDS WILL INCREASE OUT OF THE NORTHEAST AND BECOME QUITE
GUSTY. WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN UP THROUGH THE ENTIRE FORECAST
PERIOD, WITH THE STRONGEST BEING IN THE SOUTHERN AREAS DUE TO THE
TIGHTER PRESSURE GRADIENT THERE.

OUTLOOK...
CONDITIONS WILL THEN DETERIORATE BELOW VFR THU AS RAIN AND WIND
ARRIVE WITH A COASTAL STORM. THE LOWER CONDITIONS MAY PERSIST FRI
AND INTO THE WEEKEND AS A DEEP MARINE FLOW CONTINUES.

&&

.MARINE...
WITH THE AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE TO OUR NORTH BEGINNING TO SLOWLY MOVE
TO THE NORTHEAST, AND THE DEVELOPING AREA OF LOW PRESSURE BEGINNING
TO SLOWLY MAKE ITS WAY NORTH AND WESTWARD TODAY, THE PRESSURE
GRADIENT ACROSS THE AREA WILL CONTINUE TO TIGHTEN. THEREFORE WE WILL
KEEP THE GALE WARNING WHERE IT IS, AND KEEP THE SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORIES WHERE THEY ARE. THE GRADIENT LOOKS TO REMAIN OVER THE
AREA THROUGH AT LEAST THURSDAY, SO WE HAVE EXTENDED THE CURRENT GALE
WARNING THROUGH THURSDAY, AND HAVE ISSUED A GALE WATCH FOR THE
NORTHERN WATERS. WE HAVE ALSO EXTENDED THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY ON
THE UPPER BAY THROUGH THURSDAY AS WELL. THE GRADIENT BEGINS TO
SLACKEN OVERNIGHT THURSDAY AND FRIDAY AS THE HIGH MOVES FARTHER
AWAY, AND THE LOW MOVES CLOSER TO THE AREA, AND FINALLY THROUGH THE
AREA OVER THE WEEKEND. THIS WILL ALLOW WIND SPEEDS TO COME DOWN, BUT
SEAS WILL LIKELY REMAIN ELEVATED THROUGH THE WEEKEND. WE WILL ALSO
HAVE TO KEEP OUR EYE ON THE POSSIBILITY OF A TROPICAL SYSTEM IN THE
ATLANTIC AS WELL, BUT CURRENT INDICATIONS ARE THAT IT WILL REMAIN
OFFSHORE.

.COASTAL FLOODING...
HAVE DECIDED TO GO WITH A COASTAL FLOOD WATCH FOR ALL COUNTIES ALONG
THE COAST FROM ATLANTIC COUNTY SOUTHWARD, AS WELL AS THE COUNTIES
ALONG THE DELAWARE BAY AND THE TIDAL PORTIONS OF THE DELAWARE RIVER
AS FORECASTS ARE SHOWING THE POSSIBILITY OF MODERATE TIDAL FLOODING.
IN ADDITION TO THE HIGH TIDAL DEPARTURES EXPECTED, ENHANCED WAVE
ACTION AND THE POSSIBILITY OF HEAVY RAIN COULD INCREASE THE
CHANCES OF MODERATE TIDAL FLOODING. THE WATCH IS CURRENTLY IN
EFFECT FOR THE TIDE CYCLE FOR THURSDAY AFTERNOON, BUT COULD BE
EXTENDED INTO THE NEXT CYCLE OR TWO IN LATER FORECASTS IF WATER
DOES NOT EVACUATE QUICKLY ENOUGH. PLEASE SEE THE LATEST COASTAL
FLOOD STATEMENT /PHLCFWPHI/ FOR MORE INFORMATION.

&&

.RIP CURRENTS...
WITH THE NORTHEAST FLOW AND HIGH WINDS AND WAVES, THERE WILL BE A
HIGH RISK OF ENHANCED RIP CURRENTS TODAY ALONG THE COAST. THESE
CONDITIONS WILL LIKELY LAST THROUGH THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AS WELL.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
QUANTITATIVE PRECIPITATION WAS GENERALLY TAKEN FROM THE IDEA THAT
HPC PUT FORTH...WHICH WAS TO PAINT MORE RAIN OVER OUR SOUTHERN AND
EASTERN ZONES, WITH ABOUT 2 TO 2.5 INCHES THERE, AND SHADING BACK
TO 1 TO 2 INCHES FURTHER NORTHWEST. WITH THESE RAIN AMOUNTS, NO
WIDESPREAD OR GENERALIZED FLOODING WOULD BE EXPECTED DUE TO THE
FAIRLY HIGH FLASH FLOOD AND HEADWATER GUIDANCE. 3 HOUR FLASH FLOOD
GUIDANCE WAS GENERALLY ABOVE 4 INCHES, WHICH MAKES SENSE
CONSIDERING THE DEARTH OF PRECIPITATION OVER THE PAST TWO WEEKS.
OF COURSE, LOCALIZED FLOODING, AND URBAN, ROAD AND POOR-DRAINAGE
FLOODING ARE TO BE EXPECTED. THUNDERSTORMS WERE ADDED TO THE
SOUTHEASTERN ZONES THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY, CONSIDERING SPCS
DAY TWO OUTLOOK THIS MAY CAUSE LOCALIZED HIGHER AMOUNTS SHOULD
THEY MATERIALIZE. ALSO OF CONCERN IS THE POSSIBILITY THAT
PERSISTENT LOW LEVEL INFLOW COULD DELIVER HIGH QPF/S OVER THE SAME
GEOGRAPHY LATER GUIDANCE MAY BE ABLE TO DELINEATE THE LOCATIONS
WHERE THIS COULD LEAD TO HIGHER-THAN-FORECAST AMOUNTS.
