A GALE WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 11 AM MONDAY TO 8 AM EDT
TUESDAY. A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FOR HAZARDOUS SEAS REMAINS IN
EFFECT UNTIL 11 AM EDT MONDAY. 

LOW PRESSURE EAST OF NEW JERSEY WILL MEANDER OVER OUR WATERS
THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT. THE LOW IS EXPECTED TO INTENSIFY ON MONDAY
PRODUCING STRONG GUSTY NORTH-NORTHEAST WINDS. GUSTS TO 40 KNOTS
MAY BE POSSIBLE MONDAY INTO TUESDAY WITH VERY ROUGH SEAS.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FOR HAZARDOUS SEAS MEANS THAT WAVES ARE
EXPECTED TO BE HAZARDOUS TO SMALL CRAFT. MARINERS SHOULD AVOID
SHOALING AREAS. LONG PERIOD SWELL CAN SHARPEN INTO LARGE BREAKING
WAVES IN SHOALING AREAS. IT IS NOT UNUSUAL FOR WAVES TO BREAK
MUCH FARTHER FROM SHOALING AREAS THAN IS NORMALLY EXPERIENCED.
REMEMBER...BREAKING WAVES CAN EASILY CAPSIZE EVEN LARGER VESSELS.

A GALE WARNING MEANS WINDS OF 34 TO 47 KNOTS ARE IMMINENT OR
OCCURRING. OPERATING A VESSEL IN GALE CONDITIONS REQUIRES
EXPERIENCE AND PROPERLY EQUIPPED VESSELS. IT IS HIGHLY
RECOMMENDED THAT MARINERS WITHOUT THE PROPER EXPERIENCE SEEK SAFE
HARBOR PRIOR TO THE ONSET OF GALE CONDITIONS.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
324 PM EDT SUN MAR 14 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE DRIFTING EASTWARD OFF THE DELMARVA PENINSULA THIS
EVENING WILL STALL OFF THE NEW JERSEY AND DELAWARE COASTS TONIGHT.
THE LOW IS EXPECTED TO STRENGTHEN AS IT LOOPS SOUTH AND EAST MONDAY
AND MONDAY NIGHT BEFORE HEADING WELL OFFSHORE TUESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE
OVER THE NORTHERN PLAINS TUESDAY WILL SINK SOUTHEASTWARD AND REACH
THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES FRIDAY...AND THEN MOVE OFFSHORE SATURDAY. A
COLD FRONT IS FORECAST TO APPROACH THE AREA DURING NEXT WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
RAIN MOSTLY EXITED STAGE LEFT THIS AFTERNOON WITH THE WESTWARD
MOVEMENT OF THE VORTICITY TROUGH...SAVE FOR SOME SHOWERS OVER OUR
NORTHERN ZONES AND SOME LIGHT ECHOES OVER CENTRAL NEW JERSEY.
HOWEVER...MORE RAIN WAS FORMING OVER THE OCEAN UPSTREAM...AND THIS
SHOULD MOVE INTO OUR AREA LATER THIS EVENING OR BY THE OVERNIGHT
PERIOD. SO, THE WEATHER GRIDS WILL START OFF WITH CHANCE
PROBABILITIES FOR RAIN...RATCHETING UP TO LIKELY AND CATEGORICAL.
THE HIGHEST POPS WERE USED FOR OUR EASTERN ZONES...AS THE OFFSHORE
LOW MAY SWING THE BEST RAIN OVER THOSE LOCATIONS ACCORDING TO MID
LEVEL RELATIVE HUMIDITIES. THE GFS AND NAM SEEMED PRETTY CLOSE WITH
MANY FIELDS TONIGHT AND MONDAY...LENDING CONFIDENCE TO THEIR OVERALL
SOLUTIONS. WITH THE ATMOSPHERE HAVING BECOME MORE STABLE...IT WAS
DECIDED TO FOREGO ADDING THUNDER TO THE FORECAST FOR TONIGHT. THIS
FOLLOWS CONTINUITY. EVEN THE MOS GUIDANCE WAS PRETTY SIMILAR. AS THE
LOW INTENSIFIES TONIGHT...WINDS WILL BE INCREASING SOMEWHAT BY
MORNING...ESPECIALLY EAST AND PERHAPS OVER HIGHER ELEVATIONS NORTH.

MOS TEMPERATURES WERE REMARKABLY CLOSE AND SO WERE USED WITHOUT MUCH
ADJUSTMENT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
INCREASING WINDS MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT WILL BRING US BACK TO
NOR/EASTER TYPE WEATHER...BUT IT WON'T BE ANYTHING LIKE WHAT WAS
EXPERIENCED SATURDAY. THE NORTHEAST FLOW IS EXPECTED TO HAVE ITS
GREATEST EFFECT ON MARINE AND COASTAL FLOODING ISSUES...SEE THE
APPROPRIATE SECTIONS BELOW THROUGH MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT.
THE LOW IS EXPECTED TO TAKE A LOOP SOUTH AND EAST MONDAY NIGHT, AS
MODELS HAVE CONSISTENTLY ADVERTISED THIS AS THE UPPER LOW CAPTURES
THE SURFACE LOW JUST TO THE FORMER/S NORTH. PRECIPITATION AMOUNTS
ARE NOT EXPECTED TO BE GREAT ENOUGH AT THIS TIME TO CAUSE CONCERN
FOR ADDITIONAL OR RENEWED FLOODING...WITH EXPECTED AMOUNTS OF A
QUARTER TO A HALF INCH...HIGHEST EAST AND NORTHEAST.

THE STORM SHOULD START PULLING AWAY MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY
MORNING. MODEL HUMIDITIES WERE USED TO TRY TO TIME THE REDUCTION IN
CLOUDINESS WHICH IS THOUGHT TO HAPPEN DURING TUESDAY MORNING...OR BY
EARLY AFTERNOON...PERHAPS FROM WEST TO EAST. THEN, HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDING WILL HOPEFULLY RETURN US TO SOME SEMBLANCE OF DECENT
SPRINGTIME WEATHER TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

AGAIN, MOS TEMPERATURES WERE VERY CONSISTENT AND WERE USED
THROUGHOUT.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
FAIR DRY WEATHER IS EXPECTED FOR MUCH OF THIS PERIOD AS HIGH PRESSURE
MOVES ACROSS TO OUR SOUTH. TEMPERATURES WILL BE ON THE MILD SIDE
WITH HIGHS THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY IN THE 50S TO LOWER 60S.
AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT WILL BRING CLOUDINESS AND AN INCREASING
THREAT OF SHOWERS SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY. THE CLOUDS AND SHOWERS
WILL CAUSE TEMPERATURES SUNDAY TO BE SLIGHTLY LOWER WITH READINGS IN
THE UPPER 40S AND 50S.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG,
KMIV, KACY AND SURROUNDING AREAS.

WITH THE FINAL PUSH OF PRECIPITATION FOR TODAY THROUGH THE REGION
CONDITIONS WILL START TO REBOUND SOMEWHAT. VSBYS HAVE ALREADY
STARTED TO INCREASE AS HAVE THE WINDS. WITH THE LOW PRESSURE
CENTERED OVER SOUTHERN DELMARVA WE ARE STILL UNDER AN EASTERLY FLOW
WHICH IS SLINGING AN AMPLE AMOUNT OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE BACK ACROSS
OUR TAF SITES. THERE WILL MORE THAN LIKELY BE PERIODS OF LIGHT RAIN
OR DRIZZLE TONIGHT FROM PHL SOUTH. CIGS WILL REMAIN DOWN TONIGHT
THROUGH TOMORROW FOR MOST OF THE DAY WITH ANOTHER ROUND OF RAIN
SHOWERS.

WINDS WILL SHIFT AROUND TO MORE OF NORTHERLY DIRECTION TONIGHT AND
WILL BECOME GUSTY AT TIMES TOMORROW AFTERNOON AS THE LOW PRESSURE,
NOW OFFSHORE, DEEPENS A LITTLE BIT.

OUTLOOK...
LOW PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO HOVER JUST OFFSHORE OF THE REGION
THROWING BACK A DECENT AMOUNT OF MOISTURE THROUGH TUESDAY. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL THEN BEGIN TO SETTLE INTO THE REGION TUESDAY NIGHT
WITH A RETURN TO VFR CONDITIONS.

&&

.MARINE...
SCA CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH TONIGHT AND EARLY TOMORROW
MORNING WITH VERY ROUGH SEAS FOR THE OCEAN WATERS. WINDS WILL SHIFT
MORE TO THE NORTH TONIGHT AND START TO INCREASE LATE TOMORROW
MORNING AS THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM BEGINS TO DEEPEN A BIT. ALL THE
FORECAST MODELS AND FORECAST SOUNDINGS SHOW VERY STRONG LOW LEVEL
WINDS TOMORROW IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE DEEPENING LOW AND TIGHTENING
PRESSURE GRADIENT. WITH THAT BEING SAID, GALE WARNING FLAGS HAVE
BEEN RAISED ON THE OCEAN WITH A SMALL CRAFT FOR THE ENTIRE DELAWARE
BAY FROM LATE MONDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY MORNING.

ONCE THE LOW PUSHES FURTHER TO THE EAST, THE WINDS BEGIN TO SUBSIDE
LATE TUESDAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE FILING IN. WAVE GUIDANCE SUGGESTS
THAT THE SEAS ON THE OCEAN TAKE A LONG TIME TO BEGIN TO RELAX, AND
THEY LOOK TO REMAIN IN AN ELEVATED STATE THROUGH AT LEAST WEDNESDAY
NIGHT. AFTERWARDS WE SHOULD SEE A COUPLE OF QUIETER DAYS TOWARDS THE
END OF THE WORK WEEK.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
THE SMALLEST STREAMS THROUGHOUT THE AREA HAVE ALL CRESTED AND
RECEDED BACK INTO THEIR BANKS AFTER EXPERIENCING DRAMATIC RISES IN
RESPONSE TO HEAVY RAIN ON SATURDAY.

SOME OF THE INTERMEDIATE STREAMS AND THE HEADWATER POINTS ALONG THE
MAIN STEM RIVERS WILL BE CRESTING TODAY.

THE MIDDLE AND LOWER PORTIONS OF THE MAIN STEM RIVERS WILL CONTINUE
TO RISE BEFORE CRESTING LATER TODAY OR TOMORROW.

THE LARGEST RIVER IN OUR HSA, THE DELAWARE RIVER, IS EXPECTED TO
REMAIN BELOW FLOOD STAGE AT ALL FORECAST POINTS. TRENTON IS EXPECTED
TO CREST AROUND 17 FEET MONDAY MORNING. FLOOD STAGE AT TRENTON IS 20
FEET.

THE SCHUYLKILL RIVER REMAINED IN ITS BANKS. PHILADELPHIA CRESTED
JUST OVER 10.5 FEET. FLOOD STAGE AT PHILADELPHIA IS 11 FT.

NO FLOODING IS EXPECTED ALONG THE LEHIGH RIVER.

ALL NON-TIDAL STREAMS IN NORTHERN DELAWARE HAVE RETURNED TO THEIR
BANKS AFTER EXPERIENCING FLOODING ON SATURDAY.

THE SUSQUEHANNA AT CONOWINGO IS FORECAST TO RISE ABOVE CAUTION
STAGE. RISING TO OR ABOVE FLOOD STAGE REMAINS POSSIBLE.

HERE IS A BRIEF SYNOPSIS OF CURRENT FORECASTS ON AREAS STREAMS AND

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
WIDESPREAD MINOR TIDAL FLOODING IS EXPECTED ACROSS THE REGION
THROUGH AT LEAST THE NEXT TWO HIGH TIDE CYCLES. PERSISTENT ONSHORE
FLOW WITH CURRENTLY HIGH WATER LEVELS WILL COMBINE TO PRODUCE TIDAL
DEPARTURES OF AT LEAST 1.5 TO 2 FEET ALONG THE EASTERN SHORE OF MD,
2.5 TO 3 FEET ALONG THE TIDAL DELAWARE, AND 2 TO 3 FEET ALONG THE
OCEAN FRONT. MODEL CONSENSUS SHOWS THE LOW PRESSURE JUST OFFSHORE
WILL DEEPEN SOME MONDAY AFTERNOON WITH A TIGHTENING PRESSURE
GRADIENT. THIS SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO INCREASE THE STORM SURGE ALONG
ALL TIDAL AREAS. NOT EXPECTING MODERATE FLOODING TO OCCUR AT THIS
TIME, BUT THE SITUATION WILL BE CLOSELY MONITORED.
