AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE STATE COLLEGE PA
153 PM EDT THU JUN 9 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
ANOTHER HAZY HOT AND HUMID DAY IS IN STORE FOR THE REGION AND
THERE WILL THE CHANCE FOR SOME GUSTY AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS AS A COLD FRONT MOVES INTO THE AREA. THE COLD FRONT
WILL LIKELY STALL NEAR OR JUST SOUTH OF THE MASON DIXON LINE
BEFORE LIFTING BACK NORTH ACROSS PENNSYLVANIA FRIDAY INTO
SATURDAY. WITH THIS FRONT NEARBY...UNSETTLED CONDITIONS WILL
PREVAIL FOR THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. DRIER AND COOLER CONDITIONS WILL
FOLLOW FOR MONDAY INTO TUE. THERE WILL BE A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WITH A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVING EASTWARD TOWARD PA
SOMETIME AROUND THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 8 PM THIS EVENING/...
UPDATE FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH #451 IN EFFECT UNTIL 00Z.

POSTED A HEAT ADVISORY FOR OUR SERN ZONES NOON-8 PM TODAY...WITH
HEAT INDICES IN THE 100-103F RANGE FOR UP TO SEVERAL HOURS THIS
AFTERNOON.

     TAKEN FROM LATEST SWOMCD...MESOSCALE DISCUSSION...

TRENDS ARE BEING MONITORED FOR AN INCREASING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM
THREAT.  ONE OR MORE WATCHES WILL PROBABLY BE NEEDED BY THE 16-18Z
TIME FRAME.

INHIBITION FOR THE POTENTIALLY MODERATE TO STRONGLY UNSTABLE
BOUNDARY LAYER PRESENT ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION IS GRADUALLY
WEAKENING WITH DAYTIME HEATING.  THIS IS OCCURRING AS WEAK MID-LEVEL
HEIGHT FALLS...ASSOCIATED WITH A SERIES  OF SHORT WAVE IMPULSES ON
THE SOUTHERN FRINGE OF THE STRONGER WESTERLIES...BEGINS TO SPREAD TO
THE EAST OF THE LOWER GREAT LAKES REGION.  UPPER SUPPORT...COUPLED
WITH PRE-FRONTAL LOW-LEVEL FORCING ALONG INLAND ADVANCING LAKE
BREEZES AND FAVORABLE OROGRAPHY...ARE EXPECTED TO SUPPORT THE
INITIATION OF STORMS WITHIN THE NEXT HOUR OR TWO... INCREASING
THROUGH THE 17-19Z TIME FRAME.  ALTHOUGH WESTERLY DEEP LAYER FLOW
FIELDS AND SHEAR WILL REMAIN RATHER MODEST /25-35 KT/...AS LOW-LEVEL
LAPSE RATES CONTINUE TO STEEPEN...THERMODYNAMIC PROFILES WILL BECOME
SUFFICIENT TO SUPPORT THE RISK FOR LARGE HAIL AND LOCALLY DAMAGING
WINDS.

     .

LATEST MESO GRAPHICS SHOW 3000-4000J OF CAPE WITH WEAKENING
INHIBITION. MID LEVEL TEMPS STILL EXCEED 8C BUT ARE EVENTUALLY
FORECAST TO COOL DOWN. LOW LEVEL ENVIRONMENT REMAINS UNFAVORABLE
AS FAR AS CONVERGENCE GOES WITH THE FRONT CONFINING BEST
CONVERGENCE TO AREAS NORTH OF THE BORDER. SO OVER THE NEXT FEW
HOURS INITIATION WILL LIKELY BE MAINLY OROGRAPHIC WITH THE LAKE
BREEZE EVENTUALLY HELPING DEVELOP MORE OF A LINE OF CONVECTION AS
THE AFTERNOON HEATS UP AND THE MID LEVELS CHILL OUT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /8 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM FRIDAY/...
THE RATHER STRONG COLD FRONT FOR EARLY JUNE WILL DRIFT SOUTH
ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT/FRI MORNING...BUT FLOW ALOFT GOES NEARLY
ZONAL...SO THIS BOUNDARY WILL ESSENTIALLY STALL OUT NEAR OR JUST
TO THE SOUTH OF THE MASON/DIXON LINE FRIDAY.

THE BULK OF THE COOLING/DRIER DEWPOINT AIR BEHIND THIS FRONT WILL
OCCUR ACROSS NRN PENN. A 6-8C MEAN 925-850MB TEMP GRADIENT WILL
OCCUR BETWEEN THE NEW YORK BORDER...AND MASON...DIXON LINE FRIDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THIS WILL YIELD MAX TEMPS ONLY IN THE MID
70S ACROSS THE NRN MTNS...WITH THE MERCURY BETWEEN 85-90F ACROSS
THE SERN VALLEYS. THE CLOSE PROXIMITY OF THE QUASI-STNRY FRONT AND
COOLER TEMPS ALOFT WILL FAVOR SCATTERED AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND
TSRA...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HALF OF PENN.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL LIFT BACK TO THE NE ACROSS CENTRAL PENN
AND THE SUSQ VALLEY FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY BRINGING
ADDITIONAL...SCATTERED SHOWERS AND TSRA.

THE APPROACH OF A COLD FRONT FROM THE MIDWEST WILL HELP TO RAMP UP
THE AREAL COVERAGE AND INTENSITY OF TSRA LATER SAT AFTERNOON AND
EVENING...AS A RIBBON OF STEEPER MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES /AND PRECIP
WATER APPROACHING 2 INCHES/ PUSHES INTO CENTRAL PENN.

MAY DECIDE TO INCREASE POPS INTO THE LIKELY RANGE FOR MUCH OF THE
FCST AREA SAT AFTERNOON/EARLY SAT NIGHT.

THE COLD FRONT SHOULD CROSS THE COMMONWEALTH SUNDAY MORNING.
PRECIP CHANCES AND LLVL MOISTURE WILL GRADUALLY DECREASE FROM WEST
TO EAST IN THE WAKE OF THE CFROPA DURING THE DAY SUNDAY.

MONDAY AND TUE LOOK MAINLY DRY.

SOME CHC OF A SHOWER OR STORM FOR NEXT WED...BASED ON 12Z GFS.
FOR NOW...WENT LOW CHC.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
MVFR HZ FROM EARLIER TODAY HAS DISSIPATED ACROSS THE REGION AS OF
THE 18Z ISSUANCE. THE PRIMARY CONCERN FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE DAY WILL
BE THE DEVELOPMENT OF WIDELY SCATTERED SHRA/TSRA AHEAD OF AN
ADVANCING COLD FRONT. STORMS MAY BECOME SEVERE IN THE FAVORABLE
CONDITIONS PROVIDED BY THE WARM AND HIGHLY UNSTABLE AIR MASS.
TSTMS ARE ALREADY BEGINNING TO DEVELOP ACROSS THE NORTHERN TIER AS
OF 18Z AND WILL CONTINUE TO BUILD ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH 03Z.

AFTER THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH TONIGHT...MVFR/IFR BR AND HZ IS EXPECTED
TO RETURN TO MUCH OF THE REGION. ISOLATED CASES OF LIFR CEILINGS
ARE ALSO POSSIBLE BEFORE 12Z. HAZE WILL LINGER ACROSS MUCH OF THE
STATE ONCE AGAIN...ESPECIALLY WHERE RAIN FALLS THIS AFTERNOON.
UNSETTLED WEATHER IS EXPECTED TO RETURN TOMORROW
AFTERNOON...REMAINING IN PLACE FOR MUCH OF THE WEEKEND.

OUTLOOK...
THU NIGHT...MVFR NW / VFR SE. TSTMS LIKELY...REDUCING CIGS/VSBYS.
FRI-SUN...PRIMARILY VFR. SCT SHRA/TSRA WITH LOCAL RESTRICTIONS.
MON-TUE...MAINLY VFR.
