AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE STATE COLLEGE PA
611 PM EDT FRI JUN 1 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A VIGOROUS UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM WILL LIFT NORTHWARD THROUGH THE UPPER OHIO VALLEY AND
BECOME VERTICALLY STACKED OVER THE UPPER GREAT LAKES TONIGHT.
BROAD SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL TRANSPORT DEEP MOISTURE INTO THE REGION
AHEAD OF THE TRAILING COLD FRONT...WHICH WILL BRING MODERATE TO
HEAVY SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AS IT CROSSES THE REGION EARLY
TONIGHT. SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE PRIMARILY OVER THE
SOUTHERN HALF OF THE AREA. THE UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL BECOME ANCHORED
NEAR THE NEW ENGLAND COAST DUE TO STRONG HIGH LATITUDE BLOCKING IN
THE NORTH ATLANTIC...ENSURING NEAR TO BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES FOR
THE FIRST WEEK OF JUNE...ALONG WITH A CHANCE OF DAILY SHOWERS.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 9 PM THIS EVENING/...
TOR WATCHES 332 AND 333 REMAIN IN EFFECT UNTIL 9 PM ACROSS SCENT
PENN AND THE LOWER SUSQ VALLEY.

RECENTLY ISSUED A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR THE SERN THIRD OF THE CWA.

SFC WARM FRONT AT 21Z EXTENDED FROM THE LAUREL HIGHLANDS TO
NORTHERN DELAWARE. TEMPS JUST TO THE NORTH OF THIS BOUNDARY WERE
MAINLY IN THE UPPER 60S TO MID 70S CREATING MIXED LAYER CAPE OF
SEVERAL HUNDRED J/KG AT BEST, THIS WAS HELPING TO GRADUALLY WEAKEN
THE STRONG ROTATION DISPLAYED BY THE DISCRETE SUPERCELLS AS THEY
CLIMB THE SHALLOW COOLER AIRMASS.

HOWEVER...SHORT RANGE/HIGH RES MODELS SHOW THIS WARM FRONTAL
BOUNDARY AND INCREASING LLVL INSTABILITY/SHEAR SPREADING NWD INTO
SCENT PENN AND THE LOWER SUSQ VALLEY THIS EVENING. HIGH...0-1KM
EHI OF 1.5-2.5 M2/S2 IN THIS AREA WILL SUPPORT ROTATING UPDRAFTS
AND THE POTENTIAL FOR ISOLATED TORNADOES FROM THE LAURELS TO THE
WRN LOWER SUSQ VALLEY.

THE SECOND...AND MUCH LARGER SCALE FEATURE IS A SQUALL LINE
/QUASI-NCFRB TYPE FEATURE THAT WILL SWEEP STEADILY TO THE
NORTHEAST AT 25-30KTS UP THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY. THIS LINE WILL
LIKELY DEVELOP SOME DISTINCT BOW FEATURES AS IT HEADS INTO THE
BETTER LLVL DIRECTIONAL SHEAR ENVIRONMENT AND INTERACTS WITH THE
NEARLY EAST/WEST WARM FRONTAL BOUNDARY OVER THE SRN TIER OF PENN.

THIRD...WILL BE THE HEAVY RAIN/FLASH FLOODING POTENTIAL FROM THE
COMBINATION OF THE FIRST FEW BATCHES OF SUPER-CELLULAR
STORMS...AND THE SECOND NCFRB FEATURE ALONG THE COLD FRONT.
WIDESPREAD 1-2 RAINFALL AMOUNTS ARE LIKELY WITH LOCALIZED AMOUNTS
AROUND 3 INCHES OVER THE NEXT 6-8 HOURS ACROSS THE SE THIRD OF THE
CWA.

&&

.SHORT TERM /9 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM SATURDAY/...
THE FRONT SHOULD BE CLEAR OF THE EASTERN ZONES BY SUNRISE ON SAT
AS THE SYSTEM BECOMES VERTICALLY STACKED OVER NORTHERN ONTARIO.
EARLY FOG OR STRATUS MAY COVER THE REGION SAT AM...BUT THE WESTERLY
WINDS PICK UP QUICKLY. 8H TEMPS WILL START THE DAY ABOUT 2C OVER
NWRN PA. THE STRONG EARLY JUNE SUNSHINE WILL HEAT AND MIX THE TEMPS
AND CAUSE THEM TO RISE ON A STEEP LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATE. WILL PLAY IT
MORE-CLOUDY IN THE NW WITH LOTS OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND THE STEEP
LAPSE RATES TO CAUSE STRATOCU. DOWNSLOPING IN THE SE WILL LEAD TO
LESS CLOUD COVERAGE...BUT WILL KEEP P/S FOR CLOUD COVER.
SFC BOUNDARY HANGS CLOSE TO OUR NERN ZONES THROUGH THE DAY...BUT
SHOWERS ASSOCD WITH IT SHOULD REMAIN TO THE NE. HOWEVER...ADDITIONAL
SPOKES OF VORTICITY WILL ROTATE THROUGH DURING THE DAY AND THE
UPSLOPE INTO THE WRN MTS IN THE POST-FRONTAL FLOW WILL CREATE SCT
SHRA - MAINLY N OF I-80. MAX TEMPS WILL BE 5-10F BELOW NORMALS SAT.
EXPECT VERY SIMILAR WEATHER FOR SUNDAY...AS THE STACKED LOWS
PROPAGATE INTO NEW ENGLAND/ACROSS UPSTATE NY. WHILE 8H TEMPS DO NOT
GET ALL THAT COLD ON SUNDAY...THE DYNAMICS WILL BE CLOSER AND
PROVIDE LIFT TO MOISTURE WRAPPED IN OFF THE NRN ATLANTIC AND THE
GREAT LAKES. WILL CONTINUE 20-30 POPS SAT NIGHT AND RAMP THEM UP
INTO THE HIGH CHC TO HIGH LIKELY RANGE BY SUNDAY AFTN AS THE UPPER
LOW GETS CLOSE. THE DRYING WRLY FLOW WILL BRING DEWPOINTS INTO THE
40S AND PWATS REMAIN AT OR BELOW NORMAL. MINS SUN MORNING WILL BE
ABOUT 5F BELOW NORMALS UNDER CLOUDS AND LIGHT WEST WINDS. MINS WILL
BE KEPT UP NEAR NORMALS MON AM WITH A STRONGER WNW SFC FLOW
OVERNIGHT AND SOME CLOUDS...ESP IN THE NRN HALF OF THE AREA.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
A STRONG NEGATIVE NORTH ATLANTIC OSCILLATION /NAO/ IS PROJECTED
TO CONTINUE AND HELP SUPPORT/ANCHOR A CLOSED UPPER LOW OVER THE
NORTHEAST STATES AND CANADIAN MARITIMES THIS PERIOD. THIS PATTERN
WILL FAVOR NEAR TO BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES WITH OCCASIONAL
ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AS DISTURBANCES ROTATE AROUND THE WEST-SIDE OF
CYCLONIC/NW FLOW ALOFT.

HIGHEST CHC OF SHOWERS AND PERHAPS A THUNDERSTORM WILL BE
SUNDAY...BUT THERE WILL BE NEARLY A DAILY CHC INTO THU.

TEMPS WILL AVERAGE BELOW NORMAL FOR MUCH OF THE WEEK...GIVEN
ABNORMALLY LOW HEIGHTS.

&&

.AVIATION /22Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
SQUALL LINE TRACKING RAPIDLY EASTWARD ACROSS ROUTES. WILL CROSS
KJST SHORTLY...FOLLOWED BY KAOO AND KUNV BY 2230Z...
KIPT/KSEG/KMDT BY 00Z/2 JUN. STRONG COLD FRONT ACROSSING CENTRAL
PA. SEVERE WIND GUSTS POSSIBLE THROUGH 02Z AT CENTRAL AND EASTERN
AIRFIELDS. HEAVY RAINFALL AND LCL IFR CIGS AND VSBYS IN DOWNPOURS
WILL ACCOMPANY THE SQUALL LINE AS IT TRACKS EASTWARD AT 45 TO 55 MPH.

WND SHFT TO THE WSW AFT 06Z...WITH LOW MVFR/IFR CIGS PERSISTING
INTO SAT ACROSS THE WRN MTNS /BFD AND JST/.

OUTLOOK...
SAT...AM LOW CIGS POSSIBLE W MTNS.
SUN-WED...SCT SHRA W/ MVFR CIGS PSBL...MAINLY AT JST AND BFD.
