AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
1025 PM EDT FRI MAY 14 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE REGION TONIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
BUILD IN FROM THE WEST FOR THE WEEKEND. LOW PRESSURE IS FORECAST
TO APPROACH AND CROSS OUR REGION TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY OF NEXT
WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/...
THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH WAS ALLOWED TO EXPIRE AT 10:00 PM.
NEVERTHELESS, THERE REMAINED SCATTERED SEVERE WEATHER IN SOUTHERN
NEW JERSEY AND SOUTHERN DELAWARE. THE SEVERE WEATHER SHOULD NOT
LAST MUCH LONGER.

THE APPROACHING COLD FRONT EXTENDED SOUTHWESTWARD FROM THE
CATSKILLS, ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA TO THE OHIO RIVER
VALLEY. THE FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE TO THE SOUTH AND IT SHOULD
PASS THROUGH OUR FORECAST AREA BY DAYBREAK.

WHILE THE THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD PASS TO OUR EAST AND SOUTH BY
AROUND MIDNIGHT, ISOLATED SHOWERS MAY LINGER UNTIL THE FRONT
PASSES.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY/...
THE FRONT CLEARS THE AREA BY EARLY SATURDAY MORNING BRINGING IN
BEAUTIFUL WEATHER FOR THE WEEKEND. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN
FROM THE WEST. TEMPERATURES WILL GRADUALLY COOL OVER THE NEXT
COUPLE OF DAYS BUT WILL REMAIN CLOSE TO NORMAL, IN THE LOWER 70S
ACROSS THE AREA. SATURDAY WILL BE A BIT BREEZY WITH AM INCREASED
GRADIENT BETWEEN THE DEPARTING LOW AND BUILDING HIGH. THE GRADIENT
RELAXES LATER SATURDAY AND SUNDAY DOES NOT LOOK TO BE TOO WINDY.

MONDAY WILL BE THE CALM BEFORE THE NEXT SYSTEM ARRIVES. MODEL
GUIDANCE GENERALLY KEEPS US DRY AS CLOUDS INCREASE THROUGHOUT THE
DAY. SOME SHOWERS MAY START TO MOVE IN BY THE AFTERNOON,
ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE SOUTHERN AREA. THERE MAY BE A RUMBLE OR TWO
OF THUNDER MONDAY AFTERNOON BUT CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH ENOUGH AT
THIS TIME INCLUDE WITH THIS PACKAGE.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
A TYPICAL SLOW MOVING SPRING SYSTEM WILL BE AFFECTING OUR CWA FOR
MUCH OF THE LONG TERM. THERE HAS BEEN PRETTY GOOD MODEL CONSENSUS
ON AN OVERRUNNING/WAA TYPE PRECIP EVENT FOR THE START OF THE LONG
TERM MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY. BECAUSE OF THE GREATER MODEL
CONSENSUS WE UPPED THE POPS TO LIKELY BOTH MONDAY NIGHT AND
TUESDAY. THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE A SOAKING RAIN EVENT IF THE
FORECAST CONVECTION CAN WORK ITS WAY INTO OR NEAR OUR CWA.
INITIALLY THERE IS NOT MUCH INSTABILITY ALOFT FORECAST FOR MONDAY
NIGHT OVER OUR CWA OR UPWIND. BY TUESDAY THIS DOES CHANGE WITH
INSTABILITY FORECAST WEST OF OUR CWA ON BOTH THE GFS AND ECMWF. WE
KEPT IN THE MENTION OF THUNDER TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT.

THE OCCLUDED FRONT AND TRIPLE POINT LOW IS FORECAST TO PASS THROUGH
OUR CWA CLOSE TO 12Z ON WEDNESDAY, BUT THE CLOSED LOW ALOFT IS
FORECAST TO SLOWLY LIFT AND OPEN AND TAKE THE BETTER PART OF TWO
MORE DAYS TO CLEAR OUR CWA. THE SO CALLED IMPROVEMENT WOULD BE TO GO
FROM AN OVERRUNNING TYPE EVENT TO A MORE CONVECTIVE DRIVEN ONE WITH
AT LEAST SOME BIGGER TIME GAPS BETWEEN PRECIPITATION.  WITH THE COLD
POOL ALOFT STILL TO THE WEST THERE IS ENOUGH FORECAST INSTABILITY
ALOFT TO INCLUDE THUNDER ON WEDNESDAY. SINCE IT SHOULD BE DAYTIME
HEATING DRIVEN, WE DID NOT EXTEND THUNDER FOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT. WE
ADDED A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS FOR THURSDAY AS EVEN THOUGH THE
CLOSED LOW IS FORECAST TO OPEN AT THAT POINT, THE TROF AXIS IS YET
TO MOVE THROUGH. FAIR WEATHER IS FORECAST TO RETURN FOR FRIDAY.

UNTIL FRIDAY WE SHOULD BE HARD PRESSED TO HAVE TEMPERATURES ABOVE
NORMAL BETWEEN WHAT INITIALLY SHOULD BE AN ONSHORE FLOW AND THEN
HAVE INSITU COOL AIR DAMMING. WE WENT BELOW STAT GUIDANCE THROUGH
TUESDAY NIGHT. AFTER THAT STAT GUIDANCE FORECAST MAX TEMPS WERE
CLOSE TO 10-15C ABOVE FORECAST 850MB TEMPS WHICH SEEMS REASONABLE.
MIN TEMP STAT GUIDANCE ACCEPTED WED THRU FRI MORNINGS.

&&

.AVIATION /02Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG,
KMIV, KACY AND SURROUNDING AREAS.

THE COLD FRONT IS STILL TO MOVE THROUGH OUR TERMINAL AREA AND THE
AIR MASS IS STILL UNSTABLE, ESPECIALLY ABOVE THE SURFACE. SO WE WILL
CONTINUE TO MENTION THUNDER IN THE TAFS IN THE SERN PART OF OUR CWA.
THE FORECAST GRADIENT IS EXPECTED TO BE STRONG ENOUGH TO PREVENT
MUCH FOG FROM FORMING, ALTHOUGH CONFIDENCE IS AVERAGE ON THAT.

WE ARE EXPECTING VFR CONDITIONS ON SATURDAY ALTHOUGH GUSTY WINDS
WILL OCCUR IN THE NORTHWEST FLOW. THE GUSTINESS SHOULD END ONCE THE
SUN SETS. THE MOISTURE IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE DEEP ENOUGH TO PRODUCE
A VFR CIG DURING THE DAY ON SATURDAY, ALTHOUGH SOME CUMULUS CLOUDS
SHOULD FORM.

OUTLOOK...
VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH THE WEEKEND.

&&

.MARINE...
THE MARINE LAYER SHOULD PROVIDE ENOUGH PROTECTION, EVEN IN THE WAKE
OF THE COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE TONIGHT, FROM ADVISORY LEVEL WIND GUSTS.
WAVE WATCH GUIDANCE IS KEEPING SEAS BELOW THE ADVISORY CRITERION, SO
ALTHOUGH WE LIKELY WILL MENTION OCCASIONAL GUSTS TO 25 KNOTS LATE
TONIGHT INTO TOMORROW, WE ARE PUTTING UP NO FLAGS.

CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO RELAX OVER THE WEEKEND, AND ADVISORY
CONDITIONS ARE NOT EXPECTED THROUGH MONDAY. THEY MAY APPROACH
ADVISORY LEVELS WITH THE APPROACH OF NEXT SYSTEM ON TUESDAY.
