AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
608 AM EST MON FEB 15 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE WAS LOCATED OVER THE LOWER OHIO RIVER VALLEY EARLY
THIS MORNING. THE LOW WILL PROGRESS TO THE EAST WITH A SECONDARY
LOW EXPECTED TO DEVELOP OVER VIRGINIA THIS AFTERNOON. THE VIRGINIA
LOW WILL BECOME THE PRIMARY LOW TONIGHT AS IT MOVES TO THE
NORTHEAST. THE SYSTEM IS FORECAST TO PASS OVER OUR REGION EARLY ON
TUESDAY BEFORE MOVING ACROSS COASTAL NEW ENGLAND AND ITS ADJACENT
WATERS ON TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND TUESDAY NIGHT. THE LOW IS EXPECTED
TO REMAIN OVER CANADA'S ATLANTIC PROVINCES FOR WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY
AND FRIDAY BEFORE IT BEGINS TO WORK ITS WAY TO THE EAST OVER THE
WEEKEND. HIGH PRESSURE IS ANTICIPATED TO BUILD INTO OUR REGION
FROM THE WEST FOR SATURDAY, WITH ANOTHER AREA OF LOW PRESSURE FROM
THE WEST POSSIBLY FOLLOWING ON SUNDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
AT 4:00 AM, THE SKY OVER OUR REGION WAS MOSTLY CLEAR. THERE WAS A
LIGHT WEST TO SOUTHWEST WIND AND TEMPERATURES WERE GENERALLY IN
THE 20S.

WE ARE EXPECTING TO SEE SOME SUNSHINE IN OUR REGION DURING THE
MORNING HOURS BEFORE THE HIGH AND MID LEVEL CLOUDS AHEAD OF THE
APPROACHING SYSTEM BEGIN TO ARRIVE. TEMPERATURES ARE FORECAST TO
CLIMB INTO THE 30S FOR THIS AFTERNOON, EXCEPT IN THE HIGHER
ELEVATIONS UP NORTH WHERE THEY SHOULD REACH ONLY THE UPPER 20S. IT
IS POSSIBLE THAT SOME SPOTS IN CAPE MAY COUNTY, NEW JERSEY AND
SUSSEX COUNTY, DELAWARE MAY REACH THE 40 DEGREE MARK THIS
AFTERNOON.

PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO SPREAD UP FROM THE SOUTHWEST AND
INTO OUR REGION DURING THE MID TO LATE AFTERNOON HOURS. THE
PRECIPITATION MAY NOT REACH OUR NORTHERN COUNTIES UNTIL THIS
EVENING.

IT CONTINUES TO APPEARS AS THOUGH THE PRECIPITATION WILL BEGIN AS
SNOW FROM THE FALL LINE NORTHWESTWARD. ON THE COASTAL PLAIN,
TEMPERATURES SHOULD BE WARM ENOUGH THIS AFTERNOON TO RESULT IN A
MIX OF RAIN AND SNOW. ALL RAIN IS LIKELY NEAR THE COAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
A VIGOROUS UPPER LOW WAS LOCATED OVER THE MIDDLE MISSISSIPPI
RIVER VALLEY EARLY THIS MORNING. THE SYSTEM HAS BEEN TAPPING INTO
SOME GULF MOISTURE. THERE WAS A TRAILING LINE OF CONVECTION TO ITS
SOUTH ON SUNDAY EVENING.

THE UPPER LOW IS FORECAST TO PASS OVER KENTUCKY AND WEST VIRGINIA
DURING THE DAY AND THE EARLY PART OF TONIGHT. IT SHOULD PASS OVER
OUR REGION ON TUESDAY MORNING BEFORE MOVING OUT TO SEA AND
REACHING NOVA SCOTIA ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

DURING THE NIGHT, THERE WAS A FAIRLY IMPRESSIVE COMMA SHAPED
PRECIPITATION PATTERN WITH THE UPPER LOW. IT APPEARS AS THOUGH OUR
REGION WILL EXPERIENCE AND INITIAL SHOT OF PRECIPITATION EARLY
TONIGHT AS THE LEADING EDGE OF THE COMMA HEAD PASSES OVER OUR
REGION. IT SEEMS POSSIBLE THAT THE DRY WEDGE FROM THE SOUTHWEST
MAY WORK ITS WAY UP OVER SOME OF OUR SOUTHERN COUNTIES FOR LATE
TONIGHT BEFORE WE SEE ADDITIONAL PRECIPITATION WITH THE UPPER LOW
ITSELF. AS THE UPPER LOW PASSES OFF THE COAST ON TUESDAY, THE
PRECIPITATION ON THE NORTHWEST SIDE OF THE SYSTEM SHOULD WORK ITS
WAY ACROSS OUR REGION, MAINLY AFFECTING OUR NORTHERN AND CENTRAL
COUNTIES.

ALL IN ALL, IT SHOULD BE A PROLONGED EVENT, ESPECIALLY FOR OUR
NORTHERN COUNTIES. HOWEVER, PRECIPITATION AMOUNTS SHOULD BE
LIGHTER THAN THOSE OF OUR LAST TWO EVENTS BEING THAT THE SYSTEM IS
NOT A TRUE COASTAL LOW.

WE HAVE TRANSITIONED OUR WINTER STORM WATCHES TO ADVISORIES AND
WE HAVE ADDED THE NEW JERSEY COUNTIES OF MERCER AND MIDDLESEX. THE
ADVISORIES ARE IN EFFECT FOR THE SAME PERIOD OF TIME AS THE
WATCHES WERE, FROM 7:00 THIS EVENING UNTIL 7:00 PM ON TUESDAY. AS
THE EVENT UNFOLDS, WE MAY BE ABLE TO TRIM SOME TIME OFF THE END OF
THE ADVISORIES.

WE HAVE POSTED OUR NEW SNOWFALL FORECAST FOR THE EVENT ON THE
WEB. FOR THE POCONOS AND FOR NORTHERN NEW JERSEY, WE ARE GOING
WITH A FORECAST OF 4 TO 7 INCHES. SNOWFALL TOTALS TAPER DOWNWARD
TO AROUND 2 OR 3 INCHES IN PHILADELPHIA, WITH LESS THAN AN INCH OF
SNOW EXPECTED FOR SOUTHERN DELAWARE AND EXTREME SOUTHERN NEW
JERSEY.

FOR TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY, WE WILL REMAIN UNDER THE
CYCLONIC FLOW OF THE SLOWLY DEPARTING SYSTEM, WITH A WESTERLY WIND
AND PERHAPS SOME SNOW FLURRIES, ESPECIALLY IN OUR NORTHERN AND
CENTRAL COUNTIES.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THE UPPER LOW IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN OVER CANADA'S ATLANTIC
PROVINCES FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY BEFORE IT BEGINS TO WORK ITS WAY
TO THE EAST OVER THE WEEKEND. AS A RESULT, COLD DRY AIR WILL
CONTINUE TO BE DRAWN INTO OUR REGION FROM THE WEST AND NORTHWEST.

HIGH PRESSURE IS ANTICIPATED TO BUILD INTO OUR REGION FROM THE
WEST FOR SATURDAY, WITH ANOTHER AREA OF LOW PRESSURE FROM THE WEST
POSSIBLY FOLLOWING ON SUNDAY. WE HAVE INCLUDED SLIGHT CHANCE POPS
FOR SUNDAY, FOR THE TIME BEING.

&&

.AVIATION /11Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY AND SURROUNDING AREAS.

VFR CONDITIONS WILL START OFF THE FORECAST AND LAST THROUGH MUCH
OF THE DAY. AS AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE APPROACHES FROM THE OHIO
RIVER VALLEY, THE CLOUDS WILL THICKEN AS WE PROGRESS THROUGH THE
DAY. AS WE APPROACH SUNDOWN TONIGHT, PRECIPITATION SHOULD BEGIN
MOVING INTO THE AREA. CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO BRIEFLY LOWER TO
MVFR AS THE SNOW AND/OR RAIN MOVES INTO THE AREA, THEN BECOME IFR
SOON AFTER. THE PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO EITHER START OUT AS
RAIN OR A RAIN/SNOW MIXTURE FOR THE TAF SITES FROM PHL/PNE
SOUTHWARD, AND SNOW TO THE NORTH. AFTER SUNDOWN, ANY RAIN IS
EXPECTED TO CHANGE OVER TO ALL SNOW, WITH THE POSSIBLE EXCEPTION
OF ACY/MIV WHERE THEY COULD MIX FOR A LONGER PERIOD OF TIME. THE
SNOW MAY END FOR A PERIOD AROUND SUNRISE ON TUESDAY, BUT SNOW
COULD RETURN FOR A PERIOD DURING THE DAY TUESDAY, ESPECIALLY FOR
THE NORTHERN TAF SITES AS MOISTURE WRAPS AROUND THE BACKSIDE OF
THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM. ACTUALLY, THE NORTHERN TAF SITES,
ABE/RDG, MAY NOT SEE MUCH OF A BREAK AT ALL AND SEE SNOW FOR MUCH
OF THE DAY. ANY REMAINING SNOW ON TUESDAY SHOULD BEGIN TO TAPPER
OFF BY SUNDOWN.

OUTLOOK...
AFTER THIS LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVES OUT OF OUR AREA AND INTO
EASTERN CANADA, HIGH PRESSURE WILL TRY TO BUILD IN FROM THE WEST,
BUT NEVER FULLY MAKE ITS WAY IN. THIS WILL KEEP A STEADY WEST TO
NORTHWEST BREEZE ACROSS THE AREA WHICH COULD GET GUSTY DURING EACH
AFTERNOON. AFTER TUESDAY, WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO
AFFECT ANY OF THE TAF SITES FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK, EXCEPT SOME
ISOLATED SNOW SHOWERS OR FLURRIES.

&&

.MARINE...
WHILE THERE MAY BE AN OCCASIONAL GUST UP TO 25 KNOTS EARLY THIS
MORNING, WINDS SHOULD CONTINUE TO DIMINISH THROUGH THE DAY. THEREFORE
WE HAVE ALLOWED THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY TO EXPIRE. AFTER THIS,
CONDITIONS SHOULD BE QUIET ON THE WATERS THE REST OF TODAY BEFORE
PICKING UP ON TUESDAY AS AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE MOVES OUT OF THE
OHIO RIVER VALLEY AND ACROSS THE WATERS. THERE IS THE POSSIBILITY
THAT WINDS COULD GUST UP TO GALE FORCE LATE TUESDAY AFTERNOON INTO
TUESDAY EVENING, SO WE WILL CONTINUE WITH THE CURRENT GALE WATCH.
THE LOW PRESSURE WILL THEN MOVE TO OUR NORTHEAST AND INTO EASTERN
CANADA FOR THE END OF THE WEEK, WHILE HIGH PRESSURE WILL TRY TO
BUILD IN FROM THE WEST. THIS WILL KEEP A STRONG
WESTERLY/NORTHWESTERLY BREEZE ACROSS THE WATERS FOR THE REST OF
THE WEEK. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES MAY BE NEEDED FOR MUCH OF THE
LATER PART OF THE WEEK INTO NEXT WEEKEND.
