AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE STATE COLLEGE PA
358 PM EDT SAT APR 16 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
DEEP STORM SYSTEM NORTH OF CHICAGO AT 15Z WILL CONTINUE UP
THROUGH THE CENTRAL LAKES DRAGGING A STRONG FRONTAL SYSTEM ACROSS
THE REGION LATER TODAY AND THIS EVENING. THIS FRONT WILL BE
ACCOMPANIED BY NUMEROUS HEAVY SHOWERS AND GUSTY WINDS. COOLER AIR
WILL MOVE INTO THE AREA BEHIND THE FRONT ON SUNDAY. THERE WILL A
CHANCE OF RAIN EARLY NEXT WEEK AS A WAVY FRONTAL ZONE STAYS VERY
CLOSE TO THE AREA. A STRONG COLD FRONT IS FINALLY EXPECTED TO
CLEAR THINGS OUT AROUND MID WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY MORNING/...
WATER VAPOR IMAGES SHOW A POWERFUL UPPER LOW SPINNING OUT OF
ILLINOIS TWD OHIO. CLOUD TOPS ARE COOLING RAPIDLY NOW FROM THE
WESTERN CAROLINAS UP THROUGH THE LOWER LAKES WITH LIGHTNING
BECOMING MORE NUMEROUS OVER CENTRAL WEST VIRGINIA. RADAR SHOWS A
DEVELOPING LINE OF CONVECTION...STARTING TO TAKE ON THE APPEARANCE
OF A NARROW COLD FRONTAL RAIN BAND IN THIS AREA.

ALL INDICATORS CONTINUE TO POINT TO AN EVENTFUL AFTERNOON AS THE
60-85KT SSE LOW LEVEL JET COMES ROARING THROUGH THE REGION.
ANOMALY CHARTS SHOW ALL THE RIGHT INGREDIENTS FOR A HEAVY RAIN AND
POSSIBLE HIGH WIND GUST EVENT SLIDING ACROSS THE AREA LATER TODAY.
STRONG LOW LEVEL MOISTURE FLUX...A +4 TO +6 STD DEV LOW LEVEL
JET...PWATS SURGING TO 2-3 STD DEV ABOVE NORMAL AND THE TRADEMARK
EJECTING NEGATIVELY TILTED UPPER SHORTWAVE ALL SUGGEST THE
POTENTIAL FOR A STRONG BAND OF SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS
BRINGING DAMAGING WIND GUSTS TO THE AREA DESPITE BEING COLD AIR
DAMMED AT THE CURRENT TIME. ADDITIONALLY...HRRR OUTPUT DEVELOPS
THIS STRONG NCFRB FEATURE FOR BETWEEN 20-23Z OR SO. AT THE VERY
LEAST...WE WILL HAVE A GOOD 3-6 HOUR PERIOD OF HEAVY RAIN THIS
AFTERNOON.

TIMING OF THE FRONT HAS IT EXITING THE MY EASTERN ZONES BETWEEN
ABOUT 9PM AND MIDNIGHT THIS EVENING. THE HEAVIEST RAINS WILL
TAPER OFF TO SHOWERS AND MOVE EAST. OPERATIONAL NAM/GFS AND 09Z
SREF ALL POINT TO PRECIP BEING BASICALLY OVER BY ABOUT 03Z. THE
USUAL LIGHT SHOWERS WILL LIKELY LINGER IN THE LAURELS AND PORTIONS
OF THE NW MOUNTAINS...BUT ESSENTIALLY THE STORM WILL BE WINDING
DOWN BEFORE MIDNIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM SUNDAY/...
SUNDAY WILL FEATURE MOSTLY CLOUDY TO CLOUDY SKIES ACROSS THE
NORTHERN AND WESTERN MOUNTAINS...WHILE THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST
VALLEYS SEE AT LEAST A FEW PERIODS OF SUNSHINE.

DEEP LOW PRESSURE LIFTING NE OF THE UPPER GREAT LAKES SUNDAY WILL
COMBINE WITH HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE TO CREATE A
FAIRLY TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT ACROSS PENN.

WEST TO WSW WINDS WILL INCREASE SUNDAY MORNING...AND WILL BE GUSTY
IN THE 30-40MPH RANGE AS A 50 KT WESTERLY WIND MAX AT 850 MB
SWEEPS ACROSS THE STATE. ANOTHER WIND ADVISORY MAY BE NEEDED.

A COLD POOL AT 700-500 MB /-12C AT 700 MB...AND -30C AT 500 MB/
WILL CROSS THE NRN HALF OF PENN SUNDAY. THIS FEATURE WILL HELP TO
GENERATE SCTD RAIN SHOWERS ACROSS THE NRN AND WRN MTNS. THE RAIN
COULD BE MIXED WITH WET SNOW FLAKES SUNDAY MORNING AT ELEVATIONS AOA
1800 FT MSL OVER NWRN PENN.

HIGH TEMPS SUNDAY WILL VARY FROM THE MID 40S INVOF KBFD...TO
AROUND 60F IN OUR FAR SE ZONES.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
LIFTING LONG WAVE TROF WILL LEAVE ZONAL FLOW ACROSS THE CONUS IN
ITS WAKE BY EARLY NEXT WEEK. UPR TROF IS FORECAST TO  DROP INTO
THE PLAINS BY MID WEEK...LEADING TO RISING HEIGHTS OVER THE
MID ATLC REGION DURING THE MIDWEEK. AFOREMENTIONED TROF IS FCST TO
LIFT THRU THE REGION THUR INTO FRI WITH ANOTHER SHOT OF SIG PCPN.
A SHORT PD OF DRY WEATHER WILL MOVE ACROSS THE REGION LATE IN THE
WEEK BEFORE ANOTHER SYSTEM MOVES THROUGH THE NORTHERN STREAM
TOWARD PA FOR NEXT WEEKEND.

EXPECT A WELL-DEFINED WARM FRONT TO SLOWLY DRIFT NORTH ACROSS THE
CWA MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT...POSSIBLY STALLING OUT ACROSS NRN PENN
FOR AWHILE.

THE WARM FRONT WILL LIFT FURTHER TO THE NORTH AND INTO NEW YORK
STATE ON LATER TUESDAY INTO WED. THERE IS SOME NORTH TO SOUTH
VARIATION IN POSITION OF WARM FRONT AND SHOWER ACTIVITY BASED ON
THE LATEST OPERATIONAL GUIDANCE AND ENSEMBLES. HOWEVER...THE BEST
CHC FOR SHOWERS WILL BE ACROSS NWRN HALF OF PENN MON-TUE. MONDAYS
HIGH TEMPS WILL BE COMPARABLE TO SUNDAYS...THEN TUESDAY LOOKS TO
BE 5-10F WARMER AS RIDGE SHARPENS AHEAD OF APPROACHING SYSTEM.

WED WE'LL BE IN THE WARM SECTOR...AND LOOKS TO BE WARMEST DAY OF THE
WEEK AS WARM FRONTAL BOUNDARY FINALLY SLIDES NORTH OF PA WHILE
ASSOCIATED LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVES FROM THE OHIO VALLEY INTO THE
GREAT LAKES. TEMPS SHOULD EASILY REACH THE 60S/70S /NEARLY 15F ABOVE
NORMAL/ BEFORE COLD FRONT PUSHES EAST THROUGH THE STATE BRINGING SCT
THUNDERSTORMS LATER WED AFTERNOON INTO WED NIGHT.

THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL MOVE WELL TO THE EAST ON THU AS SECONDARY
TROUGH APPROACHES...BRINGING ABOUT A 10F COOL DOWN THU FOLLOWED BY
ANOTHER 5-10F COOL DOWN FOR FRI AS COLD AIR FILTERS IN. HIGH
PRESSURE FINALLY BRINGS MORE SETTLED WEATHER TO THE REGION LATE WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
OCCLUDED FRONT WILL SWEEP ACROSS THE AREA LATE AFTERNOON INTO THE
EARLY EVENING. WIDESPREAD MVFR/IFR WITH HEAVY RAIN AND GUSTY
WINDS/LLWS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH FROPA BEFORE GRADUALLY IMPROVING
AFTER FROPA.

VERY STRONG SELY LL JET OF 50-70KTS IS PRODUCING LLWS/GUSTY SFC
WNDS AND ADVECTING DEEP MOISTURE INTO THE FCST AREA. RADAR SHOWS
NUMEROUS SHOWERS...SOME OF WHICH ARE HEAVY...ALL STREAKING NORTH
OUT OF THE MID ATL STATES.

HRRR MODEL DATA INDICATES THE DEVELOPMENT OF A NARROW LINE OF
STRONGLY FORCED SHOWERS WITH EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS BETWEEN ABOUT
20-23Z...WITH THESE WORKING ACROSS THE AREA FROM CENTRAL PA TO THE
EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE FCST AREA. IF THIS LINE OF CONVECTION
MANAGES TO FORM...WE COULD SEE BRIEF SEVERE WIND GUSTS OVER 50KT
AND TORRENTIAL DOWNPOURS DROPPING VIZ UNDER A MILE FOR A TIME.

AFTER FROPA...SFC WNDS WILL SHIFT TO THE WSW THEN TO THE WEST/NW
AS BROAD CYCLONIC FLOW DEVELOPS IN ITS WAKE. COLDER AIR ALOFT
SHOULD SUPPORT OCNL RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS LATE TONIGHT MAINLY OVR WRN
SXNS GIVEN UPSLOPE ENHANCEMENT. CONDS WILL IMPROVE E OF THE MTNS
WHILE BFD/JST LKLY STAY MVFR OR LOWER INTO SUN MORNING.

OUTLOOK...

MON-WED...A NEARLY STATIONARY FRONT WILL REMAIN IN THE VICINITY OF
THE FORECAST AREA KEEPING MVFR CONDS POSSIBLE WITH OCCASIONAL
SHOWERS.
