AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
336 PM EDT THU AUG 2 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
WEAK HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE OFF TO THE EAST TONIGHT. A FRONTAL
BOUNDARY WILL APPROACH FROM THE NORTHWEST ON FRIDAY BUT REMAIN JUST
NORTH OF THE AREA BEFORE LIFTING NORTH ON SATURDAY. A COLD FRONT
WILL CROSS THE AREA LATE SUNDAY INTO MONDAY, BECOMING SEMI
STATIONARY THROUGH AROUND MIDWEEK. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD ACROSS
TO THE NORTH OF THE AREA ON TUESDAY. ANOTHER FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS
EXPECTED TO MOVE THROUGH THE REGION AROUND THURSDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
BOTH THE GFS AND WRF-NMMB INITIALIZATION LOOKED PRETTY GOOD OFF
THE 12Z SOUNDINGS WITH A SLIGHT NOD TO THE GFS.

FOR THE REST OF THIS AFTERNOON INTO EARLY THIS EVENING, THE
CONVECTION THAT HAS BEEN ABLE TO GENERATE SEEMS BEST TIED TO THE
GFS'S 850MB THETA E RDG WHICH IS FORECAST TO SLIDE EASTSOUTHEAST.
THERE IS A FORECAST AND OBSERVED ACARS CAP IN PLACE IN PHL AND
PLACES FARTHER TO THE NORTHEAST, SO WE WE HAVE MAINTAINED ISOLATED
POPS FROM CHESTER COUNTY SOUTHWARD EARLY.

AS FOR TONIGHT WE ARE EXPECTING MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES. WE MIGHT GET
SOME CIRRUS DEBRIS FROM THE GREAT LAKES CONVECTION.  WE ARE
EXPECTING LESS FOG COVERAGE NOW THAT WE ARE A DAY REMOVED FROM THE
PRECIPITATION. NO PATCHY FOG HAS BEEN INCLUDED FOR NOW. MIN TEMP
FORECAST BASED ON LIGHT WINDS AND NOT MUCH SKY COVER LEANS TOWARD
NAM MOS OVERALL AS ITS COOLER IN OUTLYING AREAS AND WARMER IN
URBANIZED LOCALES AND AT THE COAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM FRIDAY/...
AS PER THE HEAT: WE WERE ON THE EDGE OF FOR BOTH CRITERIA AND
CONFIDENCE LEVEL AS WE HAVE ISSUED AN ADVISORY FOR URBANIZED
LOCATIONS. WAS HOPING TO GLEAN A PREFERENCE IN THE GFS VS WRF-NMMB
(WHICH ARE 3C APART AT 925MB TOMORROW AFTN AT PHL) OFF THE
INITIALIZATION, BUT BOTH WERE PRETTY CLOSE. FROM THEN THEY DIVERGE
WITH MAYBE SOME OF THE UPGRADE BOUNDARY LAYER ISSUES (HIGHER
INITIALIZED SPECIFIC HUMIDITIES) STILL SHOWING A COOLING EFFECT.
(THIS IS ALSO POSSIBLY WHY THE GFS .01 ISOHYET BIAS HAS DEPROVED
SINCE 5/22). TAKING THE GFS SOUNDING MAXT TEMP MACRO AS IS, BRINGS
MID 90S INTO PHL. THAT'S THE TEMPS. AS FOR THE DEW POINTS. REALLY
OPPRESSIVE MID 70S DEWS ARE STILL IN NC. WHILE WE WILL HAVE AN
ONSHORE FLOW INTO THIS EVENING EAST, UPWIND DEW POINTS ELSEWHERE
WERE NOT RELATIVELY HIGH. OUR ADJMAV/MET PROCEDURES LOWER THE DEW
POINTS VS STAT GUIDANCE, ESPECIALLY THE NAM WHICH TAKES US AGAIN
NEAR THE EDGE OF THE 100F HEAT INDEX. GIVEN WE SHOULD HAVE A MOSTLY
SUNNY DAY, WE HAVE OPTED FOR THE HIGHER STAT GUIDANCE MAX TEMPS.
OVERALL THE OUTCOME FOR TOMORROW WILL HAVE A DOMINO EFFECT ON HEAT
HEADLINES FOR THIS WEEKEND (ADVISORIES VS WARNINGS) IN URBANIZED
AREAS.

FOR PLACES JUST NORTH OF THE PHL METRO AREA WHERE THE HEAT INDEX
VALUE FOR HEAT ADVISORIES START AT 100F, AFTER COLLABORATING WITH
NEIGHBORING OFFICES, WE ARE EXPECTING HI VALUES TO REACH THE UPPER
90S, JUST SHORT FOR HEAT HEADLINES. PLACES FARTHER TO THE SOUTH
SHOULD NOT NEAR THEIR HEAT INDEX VALUES (105F) NEEDED FOR
ADVISORIES. STAT GUIDANCE HAS BEEN PRETTY CONSISTENT OF HAVING
FRIDAY AS THE HOTTEST OF THE THREE ENSUING DAYS WITH MAX TEMPS. IF
TRUE, DAILY RECORDS MAY NOT BE BROKEN IN THIS HOT SPELL. ON FRIDAY
BASED ON FCST MAX TEMPS, MOST PLACES SHOULD FALL A COUPLE OF DEGREES
SHORT. AS FOR MAX TEMPS IN GENERAL, WE ARE CLOSER TO NAM MOS THAN
GFS MOS.

AS PER CONVECTION, THE LATEST MESOSCALE AND SYNOPTIC SCALE MODELS
ARE PRETTY WELL COLLABORATED THAT THROUGH THE AFTERNOON, THE
GREATEST THERMODYNAMIC INSTABILITY AND FORECAST CONVERGENCE (AS WELL
AS H2.5 JET LOCATION) IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN NORTH OF OUR CWA. THE
ONLY PLACE WHERE THERE IS SOME COLLABORATION LATE IS IN THE POCONOS
AND WHERE OUR HIGHEST POPS WILL BE CENTERED. ELSEWHERE WE HAVE THE
CONUNDRUM OF VERY HIGH FORECAST CAPES, BUT AN EXTREMELY THIN LAYER
OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE ABOVE THE SURFACE. LIKE TODAY, WE ARE
EXPECTING COVERAGE TO BE TOO SPARSE TO INCLUDE AT THIS TIME.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
WITH THE BERMUDA HIGH SITTING OFF THE ATLANTIC COAST, WE SEE SOME
MORE WARM AND HUMID AIR REMAIN ACROSS OUR REGION.

ON SATURDAY, WE SHOULD WARM A BIT AT THE SURFACE AND SEE HIGHS RISE
INTO THE LOWER 90S. THE DIFFICULTY IN THE TEMPERATURE FORECAST LIES
WITH THE FRONT DROPPING SOUTHWARD INTO THE REGION. IF IT PUSHES FAR
ENOUGH SOUTH, WE SHOULD SEE A BIT OF COOLING, WHICH WILL HELP TO
KEEP US A LITTLE BIT COOLER AND LESS HUMID THAN WE EXPECT FOR
FRIDAY. FOR NOW WE DO NOT ANTICIPATE THE NEED FOR A HEAT HEADLINE
FOR SATURDAY AS THE HEAT INDEX VALUES CURRENTLY LOOK TO FALL SHORT
OF 100 BY A COUPLE OF DEGREES.

TEMPERATURES ON SUNDAY START TO RISE AGAIN AS WE ARE WARM SECTORED
AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING COLD FRONT. 850MB TEMPS ARE AROUND 20C,
WHICH TRANSLATE TO LOW TO MID 90S AT THE SURFACE. WITH DEWPOINTS
STILL IN THE 70S, IT LOOKS TO BE A HOT AND HUMID KIND OF DAY. HEAT
HEADLINES MAY BE NEEDED FOR SUNDAY AS HEAT INDEX VALUES WILL BE
AROUND 100 THROUGH THE PHILLY METRO AREA.

MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY WILL SEE TEMPERATURES SLIGHTLY COOL AS SOME
COOLER AND DRIER AIR MOVES INTO THE AREA BEHIND THE COLD FRONTAL
PASSAGE AND SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS ACROSS TO THE NORTH OF THE
AREA.

OVERALL, AN UNSETTLED PATTERN WILL EXIST THROUGH THE EXTENDED PERIOD
WITH SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE NEARLY EVERY DAY. THE BEST
CHANCES FOR CONVECTION ARE ON SUNDAY AND MONDAY, IN ASSOCIATION WITH
THE APPROACHING COLD FRONT AND ITS PASSAGE THROUGH OUR AREA. THE
FRONT THEN STALLS ACROSS OUR AREA OR AT LEAST NEARBY AND HANGS
AROUND THROUGH WEDNESDAY. ANOTHER COLD FRONT IS THEN FORECAST TO
MOVE THROUGH ON THURSDAY. AS HAS BEEN THE CASE LATELY, PRECIPITABLE
WATER VALUES REMAIN AROUND 2 INCHES, WHICH INDICATES THAT HEAVY RAIN
WILL ONCE AGAIN BE A THREAT IN ANY STORM.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG,
KMIV, KACY AND SURROUNDING AREAS.

A VFR TAF WAS ISSUED FOR ALL TAF SITES THROUGH EARLY THIS EVENING.
WE ARE SEEING SOME ISOLATED SHOWERS AND TSTMS DEVELOP. COVERAGE AND
TRACK IS NOT HEADING TOWARD ANY OF OUR TERMINALS. LEAST CONFIDENCE
FOR KILG.

WINDS WERE STARTED FROM THE SOUTHWEST AROUND 5 TO 10 KTS,
BUT BACK MORE TO THE SOUTH AS THE AFTERNOON PROGRESSES. A SEA BREEZE
FRONT HAS PASSED KACY AND NOT KMJX YET. TOUGH TO SEE ON RADAR.
THIS FRONT SHOULD CONTINUE TO PROGRESS DEEPER INTO NJ THE REST OF
THE AFTERNOON AND THEN BLEND WITH THE GENERAL SW FLOW TOWARD PHL AND
INTERSTATE 95 EARLY THIS EVENING. A BAY BREEZE HAS REACHED KILG AND
SOME BAY BREEZES HAVE FORMED IN DELMARVA WITH A CONVERGENCE ZONE
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PENINSULA.

TONIGHT GENERALLY CLEAR SKIES ARE FORECAST EXCEPT FOR SOME CIRRUS
FROM THE GREAT LAKES FRONT'S TSTMS. WHAT WINDS THERE ARE SHOULD BE
LIGHT AND MAINLY FROM THE SOUTH. MOST TERMINALS SHOULD BECOME MVFR
TOWARD MORNING IN FOG. MORE RURAL AIRPORTS AS WELL AS OUR MORE
RURAL TERMINALS MIGHT ALSO GO TO IFR AROUND SUNRISE. CONFIDENCE
OVERALL IS AVERAGE, BUT NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO INCLUDE IN ANY
TERMINAL FORECASTS AS A PREVAILING GROUP PER THIS ISSUANCE.

MORE VFR CONDITIONS ARE THEN FORECAST FOR FRIDAY. ANY EVENTUAL
CONVECTION SHOULD NOT ARRIVE BEFORE 18Z (AND 00Z AT KPHL). WINDS
SHOULD BE MAINLY FROM THE SOUTHWEST AT SPEEDS REACHING CLOSE TO 10
KTS BY LATE IN THE MORNING.

OUTLOOK...
FRI NIGHT...VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED. SLIGHT CHANCE FOR A SHOWER OR
THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE EVENING.

SAT THROUGH SUN NIGHT...MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED WITH
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAINLY IN THE AFTERNOON AND
EVENING.

MON...VFR CONDITIONS DETERIORATING THROUGH THE DAY AS A COLD FRONT
MOVES INTO THE AREA. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE LIKELY TO MOVE
THROUGH THE TERMINALS DROPPING CONDITIONS TO MVFR, POSSIBLY IFR, AT
TIMES. CONFIDENCE IS AVERAGE.

TUE...VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED. SLIGHT CHANCE FOR SOME SHOWERS OR
THUNDERSTORMS, MAINLY IN THE LATE AFTERNOON OR EVENING. CONFIDENCE
IS AVERAGE.

&&

.MARINE...
CONDITIONS ON THE WATERS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY LEVELS THROUGH FRIDAY. WE WILL SEE AN INCREASE IN THE UP
THE BAY FLOW INTO EARLY THIS EVENING THAT SHOULD DIMINISH LATER THIS
EVENING. OTHERWISE A GENERALLY SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL PERSIST INTO
FRIDAY WITH MOST SUSTAINED WINDS LESS THAN 15 KNOTS AND MOST SEAS
THREE FEET OR LESS.

OUTLOOK...
CONDITIONS START OUT SUB-ADVISORY LEVELS FOR FRIDAY NIGHT AND
THROUGH EARLY SUNDAY. THE GRADIENT STARTS TO TIGHTEN UP BETWEEN THE
HIGH TO OUR EAST AND APPROACHING LOW PRESSURE TO OUR WEST. THIS
GRADIENT WILL INCREASE SEAS AND SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES LOOK POSSIBLE
ON SUNDAY AND MONDAY. WINDS WILL BE SOUTHERLY AND START TO PICK UP
LATE SUNDAY INTO MONDAY AS THE GRADIENT INCREASES AS THE COLD FRONT
STARTS TO MOVE INTO THE REGION. GUST UP TO 25-30 KNOTS ARE EXPECTED
LATE SUNDAY NIGHT BUT SHOULD START TO SUBSIDE DURING THE DAY ON
MONDAY.

SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH MUCH OF THE FORECAST,
WHICH MAY CAUSE LOCALLY HIGHER WINDS AND SEAS.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
NOW THAT THE MORNING HIGH TIDE CYCLE HAS COMPLETED ALONG THE
IMMEDIATE COAST, DEPARTURES BOUNCED UP TO AROUND 0.75 DURING IT. THE
MESOSCALE MODELING IS SHOWING A SEA BREEZE FORMING AND AN UP THE
DELAWARE BAY SOUTHEASTERLY PUSH. THIS APPEARS ENOUGH NOW TO POSSIBLY
GET SOME COASTAL AND BAY POINTS JUST TO MINOR TIDAL FLOODING LEVELS.
WE WILL NOT GO UP TO PHILADELPHIA AS THEY FELL A COUPLE OF TENTHS
SHORT OF THAT THRESHOLD LAST NIGHT. WE WILL ISSUE A STATEMENT BEFORE
THE NOON NEWS. THE ASTRONOMICAL TIDE DROP OFF ON FRIDAY IS AROUND
TWO TENTHS OF A FOOT. THIS SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO KEEP US BELOW MINOR
TIDAL FLOODING THRESHOLDS.

&&

.RIP CURRENTS...
AFTER HEARING REPORTS FROM OUR BEACH NETWORK, WE UPDATED THE SURF
FORECAST FOR MODERATE RISK OF RIP CURRENTS FOR THE REST OF TODAY.
