Area forecast discussion, Jul 8, 7:48 PM EDT, 2 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
748 PM EDT FRI JUL 8 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE IN DELAWARE WILL MOVE OUT TO SEA OVERNIGHT ENDING
THIS WIDESPREAD EPISODE OF HEAVY SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO OUR AREA DURING SATURDAY AND BE OVER THE
REGION SUNDAY AND INTO MONDAY. ANOTHER FRONT MAY BRING MORE
UNSETTLED CONDITIONS TO THE REGION LATER MONDAY INTO TUESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/...
SPC SVR WATCH 610...ANOTHER PORTION TO BE CANCELLED AROUND 755PM....AND
REDUCED THUNDER CHANGES. SO WHILE REMAINDER WATCH CONTS... NO BIG
RENEWAL OF HEAVY CONVECTION EXPECTED IN E PA AND NW NJ. JUST
DEALING WITH LEFTOVERS THERE NOW.

WILL STEP IT DOWN 1 HR AT A TIME. WCN/HWO/ZFP UPDATED AROUND 625P.

FFA CANCEL ARD 8PM EXCEPT SE PORTION WHERE ON GOING HEAVY RAINS.
ANY RUNOFF FLOODING MAY TAKE SEVERAL HOURS TO SUBSIDE AFTER THE RAIN
QUITS THIS EVENING.

ANY DAMAGE REPORTS YOU HAVE...BE IT FROM FLOODING/WIND...PLEASE
RELAY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE TO THE NWS.

PATCHY FOG WILL DEVELOP LATE TONIGHT ONCE THE RAINS END AND SKY
COVER BEGINS TO BREAK UP A BIT. FOG WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE GRIDS
ATTM...SINCE THERE IS ALREADY PLENTY OF WORDINESS WITH THE
SVR/FLOOD WORDING ALREADY IN THERE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT/...
THE LAST OF THE CLOUDS AND SCATTERED SHOWERS ASSOCIATED WITH THE
FRONT AND LOW PRESSURE AREAS FROM THE NEAR TERM WILL BE PASSING
OFF THE COAST SAT MORNING. LOW CHC POPS AND A FEW CLOUDS ARE STILL
IN THE GRIDS FOR THE MORNING AREAS ACROSS ERN DELAWARE AND THE SRN
COASTAL WATERS.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN SAT AND REMAIN INTO MONDAY. A DRY
FORECAST IS EXPECTED WITH MAINLY CLR SKIES. TEMPERATURES WILL
STILL BE VERY WARM...BUT THE LOWER HUMIDITY VALUES WILL MAKE
THINGS COMFORTABLE. SAT NIGHT WILL BE COOL WITH LOWS IN 50S ACROSS
THE NORTHERN AREAS AND LOW TO MID 60S IN MOST OTHER AREAS.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
THE MODELS HAVE BEEN PRETTY CONSISTENT THAT THE FLAT HEAT RIDGE OVER
THE EASTERN CONUS WILL RETROGRADE SLIGHTLY TO THE SOUTHWEST. AFTER
THE 500MB TROF PASSES, A CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BUILD
INTO THE NORTHEASTERN CONUS.

THERE REMAINS DIFFERENCES AS TO HOW ROBUST THE CONVECTION WILL BE
WITH THE COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY. TODAY THE
TIMING LOOKS SLIGHTLY BETTER FOR A MORE ACTIVE TUESDAY. WE OPTED FOR
POPS CLOSER TO THE GFS VS WHAT WOULD BE INFERRED USING THE ECMWF.
AFTER THE FRONT CLEARS THE REGION, OUR CWA SHOULD HAVE A COUPLE OF
DAYS WITH QUITE PLEASANT DEW POINTS. THERE ARE DIFFERENCES AS TO HOW
COOL IT WILL GET, ALTHOUGH THE GAPS ARE SMALLER THAN YESTERDAY.
BASED ON HOW ABOVE NORMAL THIS METEOROLOGICAL SUMMER HAS BEEN SO
FAR, WE HAVE OPTED TO KEEP MAX TEMPS TOWARD THE WARMER END OF THE
ENSEMBLE MEMBERS THROUGHOUT THE LONG TERM. REGARDLESS AFTER A HOT
AND HUMID TUESDAY, LOWER TEMPERATURES ARE IN STORE, ESPECIALLY AT
NIGHT, FOR THE REST OF THE LONG TERM PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG,
KMIV, KACY AND SURROUNDING AREAS.

TONIGHT...PATCHY MVFR OR IFR CONDS IN ST/FOG SPREAD S BEHIND THE
DEPARTING LOW WITH HEAVY CONVECTION MOVING OUT TO SEA BY 04Z.

SATURDAY AFTER 12Z...ANY IFR STRATUS ALONG AND SOUTH OF A KILG-
KACY LINE THROUGH ABOUT 1400 UTC. AFTER THE SURFACE LOW PULLS
AWAY...THE LOW LEVEL INVERSION SHOULD BREAK...AND VFR CONDITIONS
ARE EXPECTED EVERYWHERE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE DAY. CONVECTIVE
TEMPERATURES COULD BE MET IN THE AFTERNOON...WHICH SHOULD RESULT
IN SCATTERED CUMULUS. HOWEVER...INCREASING STABILITY SHOULD
LIMITED ANY CONVECTIVE POTENTIAL.

OUTLOOK...
SAT NIGHT AND SUNDAY...WEAK HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING INTO THE REGION
SHOULD RESULT IN VFR CONDITIONS.

SUN NIGHT...VFR TO START BUT WAA MVFR CIGS MAY DEVELOP IN E PA LATE.

MONDAY...WARM AIR ADVECTION AHEAD OF A FRONTAL BOUNDARY COULD RESULT
IN SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS LATE MONDAY OR MONDAY NIGHT...BUT
OVERALL VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED. MVFR FOG IS POSSIBLE EARLY
TUESDAY.

TUESDAY...MVFR FOG POSSIBLE EARLY OTHERWISE VFR WITH A CHANCE OF TSTMS
AND ASSOCIATED LOWER CONDITIONS.

&&

.MARINE...
NO MARINE HEADLINES EXCEPT THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 610
THROUGH 01Z.

CONVECTIVE BOW SWEEPING DEL BAY AT THIS TIME WITH STRONG WLY GUSTS.
SEAS OF 5 FT TONIGHT AT 44009 MAY GRAZE OUR DEL WATERS BUT FOR NOW
CONSERVATIVE APPROACHING DUE TO WAVE GENERATION THERE ON SSW WIND.
ASIDE FROM CONVECTIVE GUSTS TONIGHT...THERE MAY BE SOME FOG LATER
ON WHICH IS NOT YET ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE GRIDS.

THIS WEEKEND LIGHT WIND WITH AFTERNOON SEA BREEZES POSSIBLE.

THE RETURN FLOW AROUND THE HIGH COULD RESULT IN WINDS AND SEAS
INCREASING MONDAY INTO TUESDAY. THERE IS A CHANCE FOR WINDS TO
GUST TO 25 KNOTS DURING THIS TIME...BUT CONFIDENCE IN THIS IS LOW
FOR NOW.
