AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
634 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/...
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 EAST SOUTHEAST. 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 OVER CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN
DELAWARE, THE ADJACENT COASTAL WATERS AND THE ADJACENT COUNTIES OF
NORTHEASTERN MARYLAND UNTIL SUNSET.

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

TONIGHT GENERALLY CLEAR SKIES ARE FORECAST EXCEPT FOR SOME CIRRUS
FROM THE GREAT LAKES 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 THE DELAWARE BAY FLOW
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...
TIDAL DEPARTURES BOUNCED UP TO AROUND +0.75 THIS MORNING ON THE
OCEANFRONT. THE BREEZE UP DELAWARE BAY IS PROVIDING A
SOUTHEASTERLY PUSH THERE. 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 HAVE ISSUED A STATEMENT.
THE ASTRONOMICAL TIDE DROPS OFF ON FRIDAY IS AROUND TWO TENTHS OF
A FOOT. THIS SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO KEEP US BELOW MINOR TIDAL
FLOODING THRESHOLDS AT THAT TIME.

&&

.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.

&&
