AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
330 PM EDT THU SEP 16 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE OVER THE LOWER GREAT LAKES WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE
TOWARDS THE EAST TONIGHT, DRAGGING A COLD FRONT THROUGH THE REGION
LATE TONIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE THEN BUILDS IN BEHIND THE DEPARTING
FRONT ON FRIDAY AND ENCOMPASSES THE REGION THROUGH AT LEAST SUNDAY
MORNING. ANOTHER COLD FRONT MAY CROSS THE AREA LATER ON SUNDAY WHILE
ANOTHER HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVES IN ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY. A WARM
FRONT MAY THEN MOVES NORTHEASTWARD THROUGH THE REGION LATE TUESDAY
SPILLING INTO WEDNESDAY WITH A TRAILING COLD FRONT ON THURSDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
AN 18Z SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS HIGH PRESSURE OFFSHORE OF THE
MID-ATLANTIC COAST WITH A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER THE GREAT LAKES.
A WARM FRONT EXTENDS FROM THE CENTER OF THE LOW SOUTHEASTWARD
THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY AND WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA AND THEN RUNS
NEARLY PARALLEL OF THE MASON DIXON LINE. THE ENSUING COLD FRONT
STILL RESIDES WELL WEST OF OUR REGION, DRAPED ACROSS NORTHERN
INDIANA TOWARDS THE SOUTHWEST.

A VERY LARGE CLUSTER OF HEAVY SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEEN
MAKING THEIR WAY TOWARDS THE NORTH-NORTHEAST ALL DAY. THESE ARE TIED
A VIGOROUS SHORTWAVE TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE EJECTING OUT OF THE
GREAT LAKES INTO THE NORTHEAST, COUPLED WITH THE STEADILY INCREASING
SOUTHERLY SURFACE DEWPOINT SURGE. STILL SOME DRY AIR AT THE SURFACE
THAT NEEDS TO BE SCOURED OUT BEFORE THE LEADING EDGE LIGHTER OF
SHOWERS CAN MAKE IT TO THE GROUND. THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT THE
MAJORITY OF OBSERVATION SITES SHOW DEWPOINT DEPRESSIONS NOW IN THE
SINGLE DIGITS THANKS TO THE TROPICAL AIRMASS ADVECTING IN FROM THE
SOUTH. QPF AMOUNTS FROM THE FIRST ROUND OF SHOWERS WILL BE BETWEEN A
TENTH AND A QUARTER OF AN INCH ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA AND
THEN TAPERS OFF TO A FEW HUNDREDTHS IN SOUTHERN NEW JERSEY.

WE ARE STARTING TO SEE THE LOW-LEVEL INVERSION BEGIN TO BREAK ACROSS
SOME LOCALES, SO WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO TAP INTO SOME OF THE SURFACE
BASED INSTABILITY. MU CAPE CLIMBS TO AROUND 1500J/KG IN SE PA AND
CENTRAL NJ AND OUR BULK SHEAR INCREASES TO AROUND 50KTS. SOME OF
THESE SHOWERS MAY BEGIN TO TOWER TO AROUND 20KFT, BUT DUE TO A
MID-LEVEL INVERSION, LOW-TOPPED CONVECTION WITH GUSTY WINDS AND THE
OCCASIONAL LIGHTNING STRIKE ARE POSSIBLE THIS EVENING.

ALL MODELS SHOW A COUPLED UPPER LEVEL JET STRUCTURE OVER THE REGION
LATE TONIGHT. ONE JET OVER NEW ENGLAND AND THE OTHER JUST SOUTH OF
OUR CWA PLACES US IN THE RIGHT FRONT ENTRANCE AND LEFT EXIT REGIONS
RESPECTIVELY...ENHANCED UPWARD MOTION. THIS COINCIDES WITH ANOTHER
REGION OF HEAVIER RAINFALL THAT PUSHES IN AROUND THE 03Z HOUR. QPF
AMOUNTS WITHIN THESE SHOWERS MAY BE A WIDESPREAD QUARTER TO A HALF
INCH FROM PHILADELPHIA NORTHWARD WITH PWATS RANGING FROM 1.5 TO 1.75
INCHES.

TEMPERATURE WISE, WE USED A BLEND OF THE MAV/MET MOS TONIGHT. SEEING
THAT WE HAVE A LOT OF CLOUD COVER AROUND TONIGHT WITH THE SHOWERS,
WE WILL PROBABLY NOT DROP INTO THE 50S FOR LOWS, BUT REMAIN IN THE
LOW TO MID 60S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THE PRECIPITATION AND ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT SHOULD PULL FURTHER TO
THE EAST BY AROUND 12Z ALLOWING A DRYING NORTHWEST FLOW TO TAKE
OVER. HIGH PRESSURE BEGINS TO NOSE IN LATER IN THE DAY ON FRIDAY
WHICH SHOULD HELP TO CLEAR THE SKIES SOMEWHAT AND SCOUR OUT ANY
REMAINING LOW LEVEL MOISTURE. BEHIND THE FRONT THE CANADIAN AIRMASS
WILL USHER IN COOLER, MORE SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES FOR FRIDAY AND
SATURDAY.

THERE MAY BE A PERIOD EARLY ON SATURDAY MORNING, WITH THE OLD FRONT
OFFSHORE, THAT A WEAK IMPULSE COULD FORM ALONG THIS BOUNDARY. WITH
THE FRESH AIRMASS OVERHEAD AND MODEL SOUNDINGS SHOWING A THE SURFACE
DECOUPLING SATURDAY MORNING, THERE MAY BE SOME LOWER CEILINGS MIXED
IN SOUTH OF PHILADELPHIA. BY THE LATE MORNING THESE CLOUDS SHOULD BE
MIXED OUT MAKING SATURDAY AN AMAZING WAY TO START THE WEEKEND.

THE HIGH PRESSURE SLOWLY STARTS TO SLIDE TO THE EAST LATE SATURDAY
NIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING. THIS WILL ALLOW A WEAK COLD FRONT TO
DRIFT DOWN FROM THE NORTH SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND IT MAY PRODUCE A FEW
SHOWERS IN OUR FAR NORTHWESTERN ZONES. THE TIMING OF THE FRONT STILL
NEEDS TO BE SCRUTINIZED MORE, BUT FOR NOW ITS LOOKS LIKE LOW CHANCE
POPS ARE ACCEPTABLE.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
EXTENDED PERIOD STARTS WITH SURFACE COLD FRONT PASSING TO OUR SOUTH
AS HURRICANE IGOR REMAINS WELL OFFSHORE MOVING NORTH.  COMBINATION
OF HURRICANE TO OUR EAST AND BUILDING HIGH PRESSURE TO OUR WEST
RESULTS IN MODERATE NORTHERLY WINDS STARTING OFF THIS TIME PERIOD.
BUILDING HIGH PRESSURE CONTROLS THE WEATHER FOR MONDAY & TUESDAY.
DRY WEATHER DOMINATES DURING THE FIRST PORTION OF THE EXTENDED
PERIOD.

NEXT FRONTAL SYSTEM APPROACHES ON WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. RELATIVELY
MEAGER MOISTURE RESULTS IN ONLY SLIGHT CHANCE POPS IN PORTIONS OF THE
FORECAST AREA WITH THIS NEXT SYSTEM.

OVERALL NEAR NORMAL TEMPERATURES FOR MON AND TUE WITH TEMPERATURES
EXPECTED 5-10 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL FOR WED AND THU.  LITTLE OR NO
PRECIPITATION FOR THE ENTIRE PERIOD.

GFS MOS GUIDANCE WAS USED AS PRIMARY INPUT WITH MINOR BLENDING OF
HPC GUIDANCE WHERE THERE WERE SOME DIFFERENCES.  OVERALL GUIDANCE
WAS VERY CLOSE LENDING TO HIGHER THAN AVERAGE CONFIDENCE FOR THIS
FORECAST PACKAGE.

&&

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

REMAINDER OF THIS AFTERNOON...MVFR CIGS NEAR KACY WILL DEPART
SHORTLY. OTRW VFR CIGS. SHOWERS EASTERN PENNSYLVANIA ONLY
PROGRESSING SLOWLY EWD. POCONOS TO FAR NW NJ HILLS WILL SEE IFR
CONDS DEVELOP BY 22Z OR 23Z IN PERSISTENT SHOWERS WITH RIDGES
OBSCURED IN THE POCONOS.

WINDS: FROM KPHL TO KACY SOUTHWARD WILL SHIFT FROM SE TO SSW AND
GUSTS WILL INCREASE TO BETWEEN 22 AND 30 KTS MID OR LATE AFTN...
STRONGEST WINDS IN DELAWARE IN S NJ. LLWS FCST AT KACY. WE SHOULD
SOME INTERESTING OBS BETWEEN 20-22Z AS THE CONVECTION FIRES AND IS
FED BY THE DEVELOPING LLJ.

WARM FRONTAL WAVE VCNTY KLNS AT 18Z IS THE KEY FORCING ELEMENT
THROUGH 02Z AS IT MOVES NEWD ALONG THE NWD MOVING FRONT. PALS NOTE
THE 00Z AND 06Z NAM SECTIONS WERE SUPERIOR TO THE GFS IN DEPICTING
POTENTIAL FOR MVFR CIGS THIS MORNING AND ALSO THE NAM 12Z RUN WAS
OUTSTANDING IN ITS 18Z TEMP PREDICTION OF 2M TEMPS. 90 IN DELAWARE
AT 18Z!

OF INTEREST...WHILE THERE IS BIG TIME CAPE DEVELOPING IN NJ ATTM...
NOTE THE SFC TADS IN CENTRAL VA MARCHING NEWD. THIS DRY AIR MAY CUT OFF
SOUTHWARD DEVELOPMENT OF CONVECTION THIS AFTN...POSSIBLY COMPLETELY
LIMITING CONVECTIVE RAFAEL ALONG AND S OF DOVER DELAWARE.

TONIGHT...IFR CONDS IN SHOWERS AND SCT TSTMS NJ AND NE PA KABE-
KSMQ NORTHWARD WITH A PROD OF MVFR CONDS IN SHOWERS OR A STRONG
TSTM WITH GUST 40KTS CENTRAL OR SE PA THROUGH CENTRAL NJ. NAM AND
GFS BOTH HAVE A SECONDARY LLJ DEVELOPING NR KCXY THIS EVENING AND
THAT WILL BECOME THE FOCUS FOR HIGH SHEAR AND A POSSIBLE SUPERCELL.

12Z RGEM AND 12Z NAM BOTH HAVE SUPERCELL POTENTIAL SEEMINGLY FOCUSED
NEAR A MESO LOW ON THE WARM FRONT SOMEWHERE VCNTY 20 MI EITHER SIDE
KTTN-SANDY HOOK.

DEL AND E MARYLAND...VFR MOST OF THE NIGHT BUT THERE MAY BE A BRIEF
PROD OF MVFR CONDS IN THE SHOWER TAIL AS IT DRIFTS SEWD OVERNIGHT BUT
CONFIDENCE IS BELOW AVG ON ANY MVFR/IFR CONDS.

WINDS VERY EARLY THIS EVENING SSW GUSTY TO 20 OR 30 KTS KPHL KILG
KMIV AND KACY IN GENERAL GRADIENT WIND DIMINISHING TOWARD 06Z. LOW
PROBABILITY TSTM WESTERLY G40 KTS MAINLY KTTN-SANDY HOOK.

TOWARD DAWN FRIDAY...PATCHES OF IFR CONDS IN ST/FOG KABE KRDG AND
POSSIBLY KTTN AND MVFR PATCHY FOG FURTHER S IN LIGHT WIND PARTIAL
HIGH LEVEL CLEARING.

OUTLOOK...
FRIDAY...VFR CIGS 3500-5500 FT DEVELOP FORENOON AND PROBABLY
DISSIPATE LATE DAY PRIMARILY KPHL NORTH. WINDS GENERALLY UNDER 15
KTS.

FRIDAY NIGHT...COOL FRONT SAGS SOUTH THROUGH THE AREA WITH VFR TO
BEGIN BUT MVFR OR IFR CIGS POSSIBLE AFTER 06Z/18...SHORTLY AFTER
WIND SHIFTS TO NE?  WINDS GENERALLY UNDER 15 KTS.  CONFIDENCE ON
CIGS FCST BELOW AVG.

SAT...VFR THOUGH POSSIBLE MVFR CIGS IN NJ WHICH MIGHT SPREAD WEST
INTO E PA BY NIGHT AS BL FLOW TURNS SE. WINDS GENERALLY UNDER 15
KTS.  CONFIDENCE BELOW AVG.

SUN...BECOMING VFR. WINDS GENERALLY UNDER 15 KTS. CONFIDENCE AVG.

MON...VFR. GUSTY N WIND 15-20 KTS. CONFIDENCE ABV AVG.

TUE...VFR LIGHT WIND AND SEA BREEZES LIKELY DURING THE AFTN.

.MARINE...
SCA IN EFFECT:  NO CHANGE TO THE HEADLINES PREVIOUSLY ISSUED.

A COLD FRONT WILL CROSS OUR WATERS TONIGHT OR FRIDAY MORNING. THIS
WILL ALLOW THE PRESSURE GRADIENT TO RELAX LATER TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY
AS WINDS SWING AROUND TO SOUTHWEST, WEST, AND THEN NORTHWEST. THE
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WILL TERMINATE ON THE UPPER DELAWARE BAY AT 6
AM FRIDAY. ON THE LOWER BAY IT WILL END AT NOON FRIDAY. ON OUR OCEAN
WATERS, IT WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 PM FRIDAY, MAINLY FOR SEAS.
THERE COULD BE A PROLONGED PERIOD OF ADVISORY CRITERIA SEAS ON THE
OCEAN WATERS AS LONG PERIOD SWELLS FROM DISTANT HURRICANE IGOR PUSH
INTO OUR AREA WITH SCA SWELLS OF 6 FOOT FORESEEN THIS WEEKEND.
THESE LARGE SWELLS COULD STILL BE A FACTOR THROUGH MONDAY.

EXPECT HIGH SURF CONDITIONS WITH A HIGH RISK OF DANGEROUS RIP
CURRENTS THIS WEEKEND INTO MONDAY.

STEADILY SUBSIDING SWELLS ARE EXPECTED TUESDAY.

&&

.RIP CURRENTS...
LOOKS LIKE 44009 AND 44025 BEGAN DOMINANT SE SWELL OF 2 FT 14 SECS
AROUND 4-5AM THIS MORNING AS THE FIRST MARINE IMPACT OF IGOR IS
MOVING INTO OUR WATERS. DOMINANT SWELL WILL BECOME MIXED SOUTHERLY
WITH THE SLY LLJ THIS EVENING BUT THAT WILL REVERT TO A SE SWELL
OF 4 FT AND 14 SECS FRIDAY AND KEEP BUILDING FROM THERE TO ABOUT 8
FT AND 15 SECONDS THIS SUNDAY OR MONDAY. THE RESULT WILL BE SOME
DECENT SURFING CONDITIONS ALONG OUR COAST BUT DANGEROUS RIP
CURRENTS AND HIGH SURF ADVISORY.

CONFIDENCE REGARDING THE LIKELIHOOD OF DANGEROUS RIP CURRENTS THIS
WEEKEND INTO MONDAY IS ABOVE AVERAGE.
