AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
107 PM EST MON DEC 22 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
STRONG LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE ACROSS CANADAS ATLANTIC PROVINCES
TODAY.  HIGH PRESSURE IS FORECAST TO BUILD INTO OUR REGION FROM THE
WEST FOR TONIGHT AND TUESDAY.  A WARM FRONT FROM THE SOUTHWEST IS
EXPECTED TO ARRIVE ON TUESDAY NIGHT, FOLLOWED BY A COLD FRONT LATE
ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT.  HIGH PRESSURE IS ANTICIPATED TO BUILD IN FROM
THE WEST FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY, WITH ANOTHER FRONTAL SYSTEM
EXPECTED TO ARRIVE FOR THE WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
STRONG LOW PRESSURE, AT THE SURFACE AND ALOFT, WILL MOVE ACROSS
CANADAS ATLANTIC PROVINCES TODAY. SUBSIDENCE IN THE WAKE OF THE
EARLY MORNING SHORT WAVE SHOULD HELP TO MIX DOWN SOME FAIRLY
SUBSTANTIAL WIND GUSTS THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON. WIND SPEEDS AT
925 HPA ARE FORECAST TO BE IN THE 35 TO 40 KNOT RANGE AND AT 850
HPA THEY SHOULD BE SOLIDLY IN THE 40S TO NEAR 50 KNOTS. AS A
RESULT, WE HAVE CONTINUED THE WIND ADVISORY UNTIL 100 PM FOR
SURFACE WIND GUSTS UP TO 45 MPH.

WITH THE FIRST SHORT WAVE PUSHING WELL OFF THE COAST THIS
AFTERNOON, AND WITH A WEAKER SECONDARY SHORT WAVE DROPPING DOWN
FROM THE NORTHWEST FOR THIS EVENING, WE SHOULD BEGIN TO LOSE THE
MORE EFFICIENT MIXING THIS AFTERNOON, AND WIND GUSTS AND SUSTAINED
WIND SPEEDS WILL LIKELY BEGIN TO DIMINISH SLOWLY.

TEMPERATURES ARE GOING TO REMAIN QUITE COLD TODAY, WITH HIGHS MAINLY
IN THE TEENS AND 20S IN OUR REGION. WIND CHILL VALUES WILL BE
NEAR OR JUST BELOW ZERO AT MOST LOCATIONS THIS MORNING, SLIGHTLY
ABOVE THE VALUES NEEDED FOR A WIND CHILL ADVISORY. THE ONLY
EXCEPTION IS THE POCONO REGION, WHERE WIND CHILL VALUES AROUND
MINUS 15 WILL OCCUR THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON...AND THE ADVISORY WAS
EXTENDED A BIT FROM EARLIER.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
COLD HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN FROM THE WEST FOR TONIGHT AND
TUESDAY.  THE CENTER OF THE HIGH SHOULD PASS OFF THE MIDDLE ATLANTIC
COAST ON TUESDAY AFTERNOON.

AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL BUILD OVER THE EASTERN STATES FOR TUESDAY
NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY. ROBUST WARM ADVECTION WILL DEVELOP, BRINGING
OUR NEXT ROUND OF PRECIPITATION.  THE PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO
ARRIVE FROM NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST IN OUR REGION DURING THE COURSE
OF TUESDAY NIGHT.  INITIALLY, TEMPERATURES SHOULD BE BELOW FREEZING
AT MOST LOCATIONS TO THE NORTH AND WEST OF PHILADELPHIA.  AS A
RESULT, WE MAY SEE SOME FREEZING RAIN THERE.  THE TEMPERATURE
PROFILE ALOFT SHOULD BE TOO WARM TO ALLOW FOR ANY SNOW OR SLEET.
FROM PHILADELPHIA SOUTH AND EASTWARD, THE PRECIPITATION SHOULD BEGIN
AS RAIN WITH TEMPERATURES EXPECTED TO RISE RATHER THAN FALL ON
TUESDAY NIGHT.

WEDNESDAY SHOULD BE CLOUDY AND RAINY IN OUR REGION.  SOME FREEZING
RAIN MAY LINGER DURING THE MORNING HOURS IN PARTS OF BERKS COUNTY,
THE LEHIGH VALLEY, THE POCONOS AND NORTHERN NEW JERSEY.  HOWEVER,
WITH NO BLOCKING HIGH TO OUR NORTH AND NORTHEAST, AND WITH A
DEVELOPING SOUTHWESTERLY LOW LEVEL JET OF 60 PLUS KNOTS OVERHEAD,
ANY REMAINING COLD AIR SHOULD BE SCOURED OUT OF THE REGION RATHER
QUICKLY.

BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, TEMPERATURES SHOULD RISE INTO THE 40S AND
50S THROUGHOUT OUR REGION.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
A COLD FRONT FROM THE NORTHWEST IS FORECAST TO REACH OUR REGION LATE
ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT.  WE SHOULD CONTINUE TO SEE SOME RAIN UNTIL IT
PASSES.  THE RAIN COULD MIX WITH OR CHANGE TO SNOW UP NORTH AS THE
FRONT APPROACHES.

HIGH PRESSURE AND DRY WEATHER SHOULD FOLLOW FOR THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY.

ANOTHER FRONTAL SYSTEM FROM THE WEST IS FORECAST TO ARRIVE FOR THE
WEEKEND.  IT SEEMS AS THOUGH TEMPERATURES IN OUR REGION AT THAT TIME
WILL BE MOSTLY ABOVE FREEZING.  DAYTIME READINGS SHOULD BE MAINLY IN
THE 40S AND 50S SO THE PRECIPITATION TYPE WILL BE MAINLY RAIN.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG,
KMIV, KACY AND SURROUNDING AREAS.

VFR CONDITIONS WITH STRONG W TO WNW WINDS WILL CONTINUE TODAY.
SCT SC COULD BECOME BRIEFLY BKN AT TIMES MAINLY NORTHWEST OF
PHILADELPHIA THIS AFTERNOON. WINDS WILL BEGIN TO DIMINISH THIS
EVENING. THE GUSTINESS SHOULD BE GONE BY MIDNIGHT AND SPEEDS ARE
THEN FORECAST TO DROP BELOW 10 KT. EXPECT MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES AFTER
SUNSET.

OUTLOOK...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN OVER THE REGION INTO TUESDAY WITH VFR
CONDITIONS EXPECTED. THE HIGH WILL THEN MOVE OFF TO THE EAST LATER
TUESDAY AS ANOTHER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVES IN FROM THE WEST FOR
TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. CIG AND VSBY RESTRICTIONS ARE
ANTICIPATED WITH THIS SYSTEM. THE COLD FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THE LOW
WILL CROSS OUR AREA WEDNESDAY NIGHT. A RETURN TO VFR CONDITIONS IS
EXPECTED BY DAYBREAK THURSDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
THE PRESSURE GRADIENT BETWEEN THE STRONG STORM OVER THE CANADIAN
MARITIMES AND HIGH PRESSURE PUSHING IN FROM THE MIDWEST WILL PRODUCE
GALE FORCE WINDS TODAY ON ALL OF OUR WATERS. SEAS WILL AVERAGE 6 TO
9 FT ON OUR OCEAN WATERS TODAY. AS THE HIGH REACHES THE MID ATLANTIC
REGION TONIGHT, WINDS AND SEAS WILL SLOWLY DIMINISH. THE HIGH WILL
MOVE OFF TO THE EAST LATER TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY NIGHT AS ANOTHER
AREA OF LOW PRESSURE MOVES IN FROM THE WEST. THIS SYSTEM WILL BRING
INCLEMENT WEATHER AND PROBABLY ANOTHER ROUND OF ADVISORIES OR
WARNINGS WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY. THE COLD FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THE
LOW WILL CROSS OUR AREA LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE
FOLLOWING THE FRONT WILL BRING A RETURN TO MORE TRANQUIL CONDITIONS
LATER THURSDAY INTO THE WEEKEND.
