Special Marine Warning 8, NWS Philadelphia/Mount Holly

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
1133 AM EDT TUE APR 5 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE REGION THIS MORNING. BEHIND THE
FRONT...WEAK HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE AREA TONIGHT. LOW
PRESSURE TRACKING NORTH OF THE AREA WILL DRAG A COLD FRONT THROUGH
THE REGION WEDNESDAY NIGHT. THE FRONT WILL STALL IN OR JUST SOUTH
OF OUR AREA LATE THIS WEEK. A SERIES OF LOW PRESSURE SYSTEMS WILL
TRACK ALONG THE STALLED FRONT LATE THIS WEAK INTO THIS WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
THE 11 AM UPDATE IS GOING TO HAVE HIGH TEMPERATURES FROM EARLY
THIS MORNING. WILL UPDATE THE LEGACY PRODUCTS AGAIN MIDDAY.

OBVIOUSLY THE WIND HAS BLOWN STRONG 40-49 KT THIS MORNING....MOST
OF IT BEHIND THE CONVECTIVE LINES...EXCEPTING EARLY MORNING SVR'S.
THE SUSSEX COUNTY DEL 615 AM VERIFICATION WAS SEEN VERY NICELY ON
DOX 88D.

LSR ON SVR AND OR NON SVR SUSTAINED 35 KNOTS AND/OR GUSTS 50+ KNOTS
WILL CONTINUE TO BE UPDATED.

PNS FOR WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA WILL POST THIS AFTERNOON.

SHOWERS WILL END THIS AFTERNOON.  THEN CLEARING LATE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY/...
THE BEST GRADIENT SHOULD BE BACKING OFF DURING THE EVENING
HOURS...AND MOST PROTECTED LOCATIONS WILL PROBABLY SEE WINDS BECOME
LIGHT AND VARIABLE LATE THIS EVENING. SKIES SHOULD ALSO CLEAR FAIRLY
RAPIDLY BY LATE EVENING. THE EXCEPTION COULD BE THE SOUTHERN
POCONOS...WHERE THE COLD UPSLOPE MAY ALLOW CLOUDS TO LINGER INTO THE
EVENING.

THE NEW AIRMASS IS MUCH COLDER THAN THE ONE IN PLACE THIS MORNING.
THE COMBINATION OF LIGHTER WINDS...CLEARING SKIES AND LOWERING DEW
POINTS COULD ALLOW TEMPERATURES IN PROTECTED LOCATIONS IN NORTHEAST
MARYLAND AND CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN DELAWARE TO DROP INTO THE MID 30S
TONIGHT. THE GROWING SEASON HAS STARTED IN THIS AREA...AND IF WINDS
DROP OFF FAST ENOUGH...THESE TEMPERATURES COULD ALLOW FROST TO FORM.
SINCE IT IS NOT CLEAR JUST HOW FAST WINDS WILL DROP OFF THIS
EVENING...WILL HOLD OFF ON THE FROST ADVISORY FOR NOW.

ELSEWHERE...CLEARING SKIES AND LIGHTER WINDS WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES
TO DROP CLOSE TO THE MOS BLEND FOR LOWS. SOME OF THE NORMALLY COLDER
LOCATIONS (SUCH AS THE NEW JERSEY PINE BARRENS) MAY GET A BIT COLDER
WITH BETTER PROTECTION FROM THE WIND...AND LOWS WERE DROPPED BELOW
THE MOS BLEND TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS.

A NORTHERN STREAM SHORT WAVE WILL DROP INTO THE FAST FLOW LEFT
BEHIND BY THE LONG WAVE TROUGH. THIS WILL INDUCE CYCLOGENESIS ACROSS
THE GREAT LAKES WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. AHEAD OF THE SHORT WAVE...LOW
TO MID LEVEL WARM AIR ADVECTION WILL INCREASE DURING THE LATE
MORNING AND AFTERNOON HOURS. THE AIRMASS IS FAIRLY DRY TO
START...AND THE WARM AIR ADVECTION SHOULD GO INTO MOISTENING THE
COLUMN.

THE COLUMN COULD MOISTEN QUICKLY ENOUGH TO ALLOW LIGHT RAIN TO
DEVELOP ACROSS NORTHERN AREAS DURING THE AFTERNOON. AT THIS
POINT...THE COLUMN LOOKS TOO WARM FOR SNOW....AND PRECIPITATION
RATES LOOK LOW ENOUGH NOT TO DRAG COLDER AIR DOWN TO THE SURFACE. SO
IT APPEARS THAT THE PRECIPITATION NORTH WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON SHOULD BE
IN THE FORM OF RAIN.

THE BEST THERMAL FORCING WILL BE ACROSS NORTHERN ZONES...AND MOST
SOUTHERN AREAS COULD REMAIN DRY WEDNESDAY UNDER INCREASING CLOUDS.
MOS NUMBER ARE CLOSE FOR HIGHS WEDNESDAY AND WERE FOR THE MOST PART
ACCEPTED.

THE GRADIENT REMAINS TIGHT ENOUGH WEDNESDAY FOR BREEZY CONDITIONS.
MODEL SOUNDINGS SHOW A MIXED LAYER HEIGHT NEAR 5000 FEET...WHICH
COULD ALLOW ACCESS TO 25 TO 30 KNOTS OF WIND. WIND GUSTS SHOULD TOP
OUT OVER LAND BETWEEN 25 AND 30 MPH.

MODEL START TO DIVERGE WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND CONTINUE TO DO SO
THURSDAY. FROM THIS DISTANCE...THE 0000 UTC GFS APPEAR TO BE THE ODD
MAN OUT WITH RESPECT TO THERMAL FIELDS. IT LOOKS TOO AGGRESSIVE WITH
THE WARM AIR ADVECTION...TAKING THE WARM LOW TO MID LEVEL TOO FAR
NORTH. THE 0000 UTC NAM AND 1200 UTC ECMWF ARE CLOSER WITH RESPECT
TO THERMAL FIELDS...AND ARE THE BASIS FOR THE FORECAST FOR WEDNESDAY
NIGHT AND THURSDAY.

THE THERMAL FIELD FORECAST IS IMPORTANT...BECAUSE THE COLDER MODELS
SUGGEST THAT THE NORTHERN LEHIGH VALLEY...SOUTHERN POCONOS AND
NORTHWEST NEW JERSEY COULD BE COLD ENOUGH TO SUPPORT SNOW DURING
THIS TIME. THE BEST WARM AIR ADVECTION PATTERN (WHICH SHOULD PRODUCE
PRECIPITATION IN THE FORM OF MID LEVEL FRONTOGENETIC FORCING) SHOULD
OCCUR IN THE ABOVE MENTIONED AREAS BETWEEN 0900 UTC THURSDAY AND 1500
UTC THURSDAY. DURING THAT TIME...MODEL SOUNDINGS INDICATE THE
POTENTIAL FOR AN ISOTHERMAL PROFILE SLIGHTLY BELOW THE FREEZING
MARK.

FURTHER...NAM MODEL SOUNDINGS SUGGEST A SHORT PERIOD OF GOOD SNOW
GROWTH DURING THIS TIME...AS THE 850 MB LOW TRACKS JUST TO THE
SOUTH. STILL EARLY IN THE FORECAST PROCESS...BUT THERE IS SOME
POTENTIAL FOR ACCUMULATING SNOW ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN LATE
WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY MORNING. MORE ON THIS AS THE PICTURE
BECOMES CLEARER.

FURTHER TO THE SOUTH...MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA SHOULD BE IN THE
WARM SECTOR OF THE SYSTEM. HIGHS THURSDAY WERE MAINLY BASED ON THE
COOLER NAM MOS NUMBERS.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
AN UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN IS SHAPING UP FOR THE EXTENDED PERIOD.
A FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL PASS SOUTH OF THE REGION THURSDAY NIGHT...BUT
THEN A LOW WILL MOVE INTO THE GREAT LAKES AND CAUSE THE FRONT TO
MOVE BACK NORTH ON FRIDAY. THIS FRONT AND LOW WILL BE CLOSE ENOUGH
TO CARRY CHC POPS FROM THURS NIGHT INTO FRI NIGHT. THE POPS WILL BE
SOMEWHAT LESS SAT THRU SUN...BUR THE PROXIMITY OF THE FRONT STILL
LEADS ME TO CARRY LOW CHC POPS AS PER THE HPC GRAPHICS. ANOTHER WAVE
ALONG WITH ITS FRONTS WILL APPROACH THE AREA SUN AND REMAIN INTO
MON.

TEMPERATURES WILL BE QUITE CHANGEABLE DURING THE EXTENDED PERIOD...AS
ONE WOULD EXPECT WITH VARIOUS FRONTS MOVING ACROSS THE AREA. THURSDAY
NIGHT INTO SAT WILL BE MOSTLY NORMAL OR BELOW NORMAL...THEN READINGS
WILL CLIMB ABOVE NORMAL SUN INTO MON. MON MAY BE ESPECIALLY WARM...
LIKE THIS MON(TODAY) WITH HIGHS PERHAPS REACHING INTO THE 70S IN
MANY AREAS.

&&

.AVIATION /15Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY AND SURROUNDING AREAS.

A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA FROM WEST TO EAST THIS
MORNING.  CONDS WILL DETERIORATE AS THE FRONT APPROACHES AND REMAIN
POOR UNTIL THE FRONT PASSES BY.  EXPECT THE CURRENT VFR TO GIVE WAY
TO MVFR AND THEN IFR WITH RAIN AND PSBLY SOME THUNDER WITH THE
FRONT.  BY LATE MORNING OR EARLY AFTN, CONDS WILL RETURN TO VFR AREA
WIDE AND MOST SITES WILL GO SKC TONIGHT.

OTHERWISE, THE MAIN STORY WILL BE THE WIND.  A SW TO S WIND IN THE
15 TO 20 KT RANGE WITH GUSTS TO 25 KT WILL BECOME MORE W TO NW
BEHIND THE FRONT WITH SUSTAINED WINDS IN THE 15 TO 20 KT RANGE AND
GUSTS AS HIGH AS 30 KT.  WINDS WILL SUBSIDE A BIT THIS EVENING, BUT
WILL REMAIN GUSTY UNTIL AROUND MIDNIGHT OR SO, WHEN THEY SHOULD
DROP EVEN FURTHER TO 10 KT OR LESS.

.OUTLOOK...
HIGH PRESSURE THEN BUILDS IN FOR TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY.  A
FRONTAL WILL THEN MOVE INTO OUR REGION LATE WEDNESDAY OR WEDNESDAY
NIGHT. THE FRONT IS THEN FORECAST TO OSCILLATE MAINLY OVER NORTHERN
PORTIONS OF THE AREA INTO THURSDAY.  HIGH PRESSURE THEN NOSES DOWN
FOR THURSDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY FRIDAY, BEFORE YET ANOTHER WARM FRONT
EXTENDING EASTWARD FROM A LOW IN THE PLAINS BRINGS ANOTHER CHANCE OF
SOME RAIN ON FRIDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
THE GALE WARNING WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT AS PREVIOUSLY POSTED AS SWLY
FLOW WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE IN ADVANCE OF A STRONG COLD FRONT
THAT IS MOVING IN FROM THE WEST.  THIS COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE
COASTAL WATERS LATER THIS MORNING.  WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE W AND NW
BEHIND THE FRONT AND WINDS WILL BECOME EVEN GUSTIER FOR A TIME
BEFORE THEY SUBSIDE LATER THIS AFTN.  SCA WILL BE NEEDED AFTER THE
GALE WARNING COMES DOWN AT LEAST UNTIL TONIGHT.  HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS IN BEHIND THE FRONT FOR TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY, BRINGING
RATHER TRANQUIL CONDS, BEFORE ANOTHER FRONT APPROACHES LATER
WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY.  THEN A WARM FRONT LINGERS OVER THE REGION
INTO THE WEEKEND AND SEVERAL RIPPLES OF LOW PRESSURE MAY MOVE ACRS
IT.  AT THIS POINT ONCE THE CURRENT EVENT ENDS AND FLAGS COME DOWN,
NO ADDITIONAL MARINE FLAGS APPEAR TO BE NEEDED BEFORE FRIDAY OR
SATURDAY.
