AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
141 PM EST SUN DEC 13 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
A FRONTAL SYSTEM WITH ATTENDANT LOW PRESSURE WILL APPROACH THIS
AFTERNOON AND MOVE ACROSS THE AREA THIS EVENING. TRANSIENT HIGH
PRESSURE WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA ON MONDAY. A COLD FRONT WILL
APPROACH MONDAY NIGHT AND CROSS THE AREA ON TUESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE
WILL BUILD TOWARD THE AREA GRADUALLY INTO THE LATTER PART OF THE
WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
WE WILL BE EXTEND/CHANGE THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY, NOW THAT
ITS ALL FREEZING RAIN, TO A FREEZING RAIN ADVISORY IN THE LEHIGH
VALLEY AND WARREN AND MORRIS COUNTIES TIL 4 PM AND THE POCONOS AND
SUSSEX COUNTY NEW JERSEY TIL 6 PM. WHILE THERE ARE LOCATIONS IN
ALL OF THESE COUNTIES THAT ARE ABOVE FREEZING, THERE ARE ENOUGH
POCKETS OF FREEZING RAIN STILL AROUND THAT WILL NECESSITATE AN
EXTENSION. THE HIGHEST ACCRUAL OF ICE WE HAVE RECEIVED IS ABOUT .2
OF AN INCH IN FORKS TOWNSHIP, NORTHAMPTON COUNTY. LASTLY WE WILL
LET THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY EXPIRE IN BERKS, SOMERSET AND
HUNTERDON COUNTIES AS MOST OF THOSE COUNTIES ARE NOW ABOVE FREEZING.

TOTAL LIQUID EQUIVALENT AMOUNTS ARE EXPECTED TO BE AROUND .50 OT
.75 INCHES. TEMPERATURES ARE SLOWLY RISING, AND WE WILL KEEP AN
EYE ON HIGH TEMPERATURES, WE MAY NOT GET AS HIGH AS WHAT WE ARE
CURRENTLY FORECASTING, SO THIS MAY NEED TO BE ADJUSTED.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY/...
RAIN MOVES OUT TONIGHT, WITH CHANCE POPS SOUTHWEST AND LIKELY POPS
SOUTHEAST DURING THE EVENING BEFORE WE TAKE OUT ALL MENTION OF
RAIN. MODEL SOUNDINGS WANT TO TRAP SOME MOISTURE NEAR THE SURFACE
LATE TONIGHT, AND WITH THE RELATIVE WEAKNESS OF THE FRONT AND THE
DECENT AMOUNT OF PRECIPITATION EXPECTED TODAY IT IS POSSIBLE THAT
A BREAK IN THE CLOUDS AND LIGHTENING WINDS WOULD LEAD TO SOME
FOG. WE HAVE MENTIONED PATCHY FOG FOR NOW AWAY FROM THE COAST AND
THE WATER. TEMPS ARE A BLEND OF CONTINUITY AND THE SOMEWHAT
DISPARATE GUIDANCE. SINCE WE ARE ALLOWING FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF
FOG, WE ALSO ARE ALLOWING FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF SOME RADIATING.

MONDAY LOOKS DRY WITH SOME SUNSHINE AS WEAK HIGH PRESSURE MOVES
ACROSS THE AREA. THE ADVANCING FRONTAL SYSTEM DOES NOT LOOK LIKE
IT HAS A LOT GOING FOR IT AT THIS TIME /FROM LARGE SCALE DYNAMICS
TO MESOSCALE FRONTOGENESIS TO MOISTURE OR ISENTROPIC LIFT/, SO WE
CARRY SOME CLOUDS AND ONLY SLIGHT CHANCE POPS PER THE GUIDANCE.
TEMPERATURES ARE A BLEND OF CONTINUITY, THE MAV AND THE MET.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
THE OVERALL PATTERN IS FORECAST TO AMPLIFY ONCE AGAIN AS SHORT WAVE
ENERGY IN THE NORTHERN STREAM DIVES SOUTHEASTWARD TUESDAY. THIS WILL
DRIVE AN ARCTIC FRONT ACROSS OUR AREA LATE TUESDAY. AS THE
ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW INTENSIFIES SOME AS IT MOVES INTO THE
CANADIAN MARITIMES TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY, AN EXPANSIVE HIGH
PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL SETTLE INTO THE MIDWEST AND OHIO VALLEY. THE
MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THIS SCENARIO,
HOWEVER AS THIS TIMEFRAME PROGRESSES THERE IS INCREASED MODEL
DIFFERENCES.

THE DIVERGENCE IN THE MODEL GUIDANCE IS MOSTLY WITH THE POTENTIAL
FOR ANOTHER NORTHERN STREAM SURFACE LOW FRIDAY AND SATURDAY FROM THE
NORTHERN PLAINS TO THE GREAT LAKES. HPC NOTED THAT THERE IS THE
TENDENCY FOR SOME ENSEMBLE MEMBERS IN THE SPAGHETTI PLOTS TO SUGGEST
MORE DIGGING SOUTHWARD OF THIS NORTHERN STREAM TROUGH INTO THE OHIO
VALLEY EARLY NEXT WEEKEND. SOME OF THE GFS ENSEMBLES HAVE SHOWN THIS
POSSIBILITY AS WELL. THE MORE UNKNOWN FEATURE IS PROBABLY THE
AMPLITUDE OF THE UPSTREAM RIDGE OVER WESTERN NORTH AMERICA ATTM. THE
CANADIAN IS THE MOST AMPLIFIED AND FARTHEST WEST WITH THIS WESTERN
RIDGE WHILE THE GFS APPEARS TO BE TO FLAT AND PROGRESSIVE WITH IT.
HPC ALSO MENTIONED THAT ALTHOUGH ENSEMBLE MEANS OF THE GEFS/ECMWF
SHOW GOOD AGREEMENT ON A MODERATE AMPLITUDE LONGWAVE RIDGE NEAR 110
WEST NEXT WEEKEND, THERE IS A FAIRLY LARGE SPREAD IN THE INDIVIDUAL
ENSEMBLE MEMBERS COMPRISING THE MEAN. OVERALL, THERE LOOKS TO BE
ENOUGH TROUGH AMPLITUDE TO ALLOW FOR MORE DEVELOPMENT OF ANY SURFACE
SYSTEM ENTERING THE TROUGH ALONG THE EAST COAST, THEREFORE THIS WILL
BE WATCHED. HPC WENT WITH A BLEND OF THE GFS/ECMWF THROUGH THURSDAY,
BUT BLENDED IN ABOUT FIFTY PERCENT OF THE ECMWF ENSEMBLE MEAN BY
SATURDAY TO SMOOTH OUT THE DETAILS. OVERALL, A MORE VIGOROUS AND
SOUTHWARD ADJUSTMENT TO THE SYSTEM IN THE GREAT LAKES AND UPPER OHIO
VALLEY SATURDAY WAS DEPICTED ON THE HPC PROGS. WE INITIALIZED WITH
HPC GUIDANCE, BUT DID MAKE SOME MOSTLY MINOR ADJUSTMENTS BASED ON
ADDITIONAL COLLABORATION.

GIVEN THE ABOVE, THE ARCTIC FRONT IS FORECAST TO MOVE THROUGH OUR
AREA TUESDAY EVENING. AN EXPANSIVE HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM THEN SETTLES
TOWARD THE OHIO VALLEY WEDNESDAY, PLACING OUR CWA UNDER A CAA REGIME
ALONG WITH A TIGHTENED PRESSURE GRADIENT. THE PRESSURE GRADIENT
LOOKS TO RELAX THURSDAY AS THE SURFACE HIGH GRADUALLY BUILDS IN.
THIS THEN SLIDES TO OUR EAST AS A CLIPPER-TYPE SYSTEM MOVES THROUGH
THE NORTHERN PLAINS FRIDAY AND INTO THE UPPER OHIO VALLEY SATURDAY
MORNING. THIS SYSTEM IS WHERE MORE UNCERTAINTY COMES INTO PLAY. FOR
NOW WE MAINTAINED SOME SLIGHT CHC POPS TUESDAY EVENING WITH THE
FRONT MOVING THROUGH /LIMITED MOISTURE LOOKS TO ACCOMPANY THIS/,
THEN DRY WEATHER THROUGH FRIDAY. WE DID CARRY FLURRIES ACROSS OUR
FAR NORTHWEST ZONES THOUGH WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT GIVEN THE
COLD NORTHWEST FLOW. WILL HAVE TO SEE IF LAKE EFFECT STREAMERS CAN
MAKE IT INTO PARTS OF OUR CWA. FOR NOW, POPS FRIDAY AND SATURDAY
WERE KEPT BELOW SLIGHT CHC GIVEN THE UNCERTAINTY. THE CLIPPER-TYPE
SYSTEM WILL BE WATCHED.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG,
KMIV, KACY AND SURROUNDING AREAS.

WIDESPREAD IFR AND MVFR CONDITIONS REMAIN ACROSS THE AREA THIS
AFTERNOON. RAIN HAS MOVED INTO ALL TAF SITES, AND WILL CONTINUE
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. SOME SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN REMAIN FOR
ABE, POSSIBLY RDG, BUT WILL CHANGE OVER TO ALL RAIN AS WE PROGRESS
THROUGH THE EARLY AFTERNOON.

OUTLOOK...
A WEAK HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM THEN SETTLES ACROSS OUR AREA MONDAY, BUT
THEN SLIDES TO THE EAST. AN ARCTIC FRONT IS FORECAST TO MOVE THROUGH
OUR AREA LATER TUESDAY WITH THE CHANCE OF SOME SHOWERS. THIS SYSTEM
APPEARS TO HAVE LIMITED MOISTURE WITH IT. A GUSTY NORTHWEST WIND IS
THEN FORECAST TO BECOME ESTABLISHED WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY AS A
STRONG HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM GRADUALLY ARRIVES FROM THE WEST.

&&

.MARINE...
WINDS HAVE BECOME SRLY OVER THE WATERS AND THE SPEEDS HAVE BEGUN
A SLOW INCREASE. LOOKS LIKE THE SCA FLAG WILL WORK OUT WELL OVER
THE WATERS TODAY WITH DECENT WARM ADVECTION OVER THE WATERS. GFS
MODEL SUGGESTS THAT A SHORT PERIOD OF LOW-END GALE GUSTS MAY OCCUR
AT 44009 AROUND 18Z...BUT CONFIDENCE IN THIS OCCURRING IS RATHER
LOW AND A GALE WILL NOT BE ISSUED. I MAY INSERT A FEW HIGHER GUSTS
IN THE CWF WORDING HOWEVER.

WINDS AND SEAS WILL DECREASE TONIGHT AS THE LOW/FRONT PULL AWAY AND
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN. ANOTHER FRONT AND DEEPENING LOW (OVER THE
OCEAN) WILL RESULT IN DECENT NW WINDS LATE TUE NGT INTO THU. SCA OR
GALE FLAGS WILL BE NEEDED THEN.
