Special Weather Statement, NWS Philadelphia/Mount Holly

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
559 PM EDT TUE MAY 29 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE EAST TONIGHT, PUSHING OFF THE SOUTH JERSEY
AND DELAWARE COAST WEDNESDAY MORNING. PLEASANT WEATHER IS EXPECTED
LATE WEDNESDAY INTO FRIDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE AREA.
MEANWHILE..THE REMNANTS OF BERYL WILL MOVE NORTHEAST WEDNESDAY
AND THURSDAY OFF THE MID-ATLANTIC COAST. A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
MOVING NORTH THROUGH THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY WILL BRING RAIN TO THE
REGION FOR THE FIRST PART OF THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. UNSETTLED
WEATHER IS POSSIBLE FOR THE BEGINNING OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCHS ACROSS MUCH OF THE CWA...EXCEPT
DE/ERN MD AND EXTREME SRN NJ. THE GREATEST THREAT IS DAMAGING
WINDS BUT HAIL AND HEAVY RAIN REMAIN POSSIBLE IN ANY STORMS THAT
DEVELOP.

FFA CONTINUES. ITS A WATCH. MOST OF THE AREA PROBABLY NO FF...BUT
AM CONCERNED WE MAY HAVE A PBLM IN DARKNESS...ESP SE PA/N DE BOTH IN
URBAN CENTERS AND ALSO THE BUCKS/LEHIGH/BERKS BORDERING REGION AND
PT NS OF MONROE AND CARBON HAMMERED THIS PAST MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND BY
HEAVY TSTMS.

FLOOD: COMBO OF URBAN AND HIGHLY VULNERABLE RURAL AFTER WEEKEND
RAINS LEFT PARTS OF W BUCKS/NE BERKS AND S LEHIGH ONLY ABLE TO
PROCESS ABOUT 1.2 INCHES IN 3 HRS BEFORE FLOODING OCCURS. CARBON
AND MONROE TRIGGER AT 1.55 FOR 3 HRLY.

EXCESSIVE HEAT: CONTINUES TO THRU 7P. HI HAS REACHED 94-95 AS OF
2PM IN PHL/ILG/TTN.

PLS SEE WARNINGS AND TSTMS FOR MORE DETAILS AND SWO'S FM SPC AND
SPE'S FROM NESDIS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH 6 PM WEDNESDAY/...
TONIGHT: CONVECTION TRANSITIONS FROM SVR/EXCESSIVE RAIN THIS
EVENING E PA/NW NJ TO MAINLY AREAS OF HEAVY RAIN AND EMBEDDED
THUNDER SE OF I95 AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH POSSIBLE SMW'S DE BAY.

SREF POPS TO END THE RAIN FM NW TO SE.

MAINLY NAM WARMER TEMPS/DEWS

WEDNESDAY...THIS FRONT WILL BE IN CLOSE ENOUGH PROXIMITY WEDNESDAY
MORNING FOR SOME LINGERING SHOWERS, MAINLY SE OF I95. SLOW
CLEARING SO UNLIKELY REACH 90 ON WED. SUED WARMER NAM NUMBER 5 PM
MAX'S.

DEWPOINTS DRY OUT ONLY A BIT AND LIGHT N WIND BECOMES SW AHD OF THE
MORE GENUINE COLD FRONT WITH A POSSIBLE LATE DAY CONVECTIVE SHOWER
E PA AND NW NJ. NAM TEMPS. 09Z/29 SREF POPS IN THE MORNING THEN
BLENDED 09Z SREF WITH 12Z/29 NCEP MOS GUIDANCE FOR END OF THE DAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
THE REMNANTS OF BEYRL ARE EXPECTED TO MOVE NORTH OFF THE COAST AND ALONG
THE EXITING COLD FRONT. THE DELAWARE AND NEW JERSEY COASTS COULD
SEE THE EFFECTS OF THIS SYSTEM IN THE FORM OF SLIGHTLY HIGHER
SEAS AND SLIGHTLY ROUGHER SURF. THE LATEST GFS RUN SUGGESTS THAT
THE DELAWARE AND SOUTH JERSEY SHORE AREAS MAY BE GRAZED BY SOME
PRECIPITATION WITH THIS SYSTEM SO A SLIGHT CHANCE POP HAS BEEN
ADDED TO THE WEATHER GRIDS IN THOSE AREAS FROM 00Z THROUGH 06Z
THU. OTHERWISE DRY AND PLEASANT WEATHER IS EXPECTED FROM LATE
WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THE DAYTIME HOURS ON FRIDAY AS HIGH
PRESSURE FROM THE GREAT LAKES AREA BUILDS OVER AND THEN PAST THE
REGION.

THEN, ALL EYES TURN TO THE MIDWEST WHERE A STORM WILL BE
DEVELOPING. THERE IS STILL SIGNIFICANT DISAGREEMENT WRT THE
TIMING OF THIS SYSTEM. THE ECMWF AND GFS HAVE SOME SIMILARITIES
BUT ALSO SOME BIG DIFFS. THEY WANT TO BEGIN THE PRECIP FRI EVENING
AND BRING THE BULK OF IT THRU FRI NIGHT INTO SAT MORNING. HOWEVER,
THE GFS WANTS TO LINGER THE PRECIP THRU MOST OF SATURDAY WHILE THE
ECMWF CLEARS IT OUT RELATIVELY EARLY ON SAT. THERE COULD BE A
PERIOD OF HEAVY RAIN WHICH, BASED ON CURRENT DATA WOULD BE FRIDAY
NIGHT OR SATURDAY MORNING.

BEHIND THIS SYSTEM, THE GFS TRIES TO BRING SEVERAL WEAK SYSTEMS
THRU, ONE EARLY MONDAY AND ANOTHER ON TUESDAY AS S/WVS MOVE THRU
THE FLOW. THE ECMWF IS ESSENTIALLY DRY DURG THIS TIME. SO WILL NOT
MAKE ANY CHANGES TO THE CURRENT FCST.  SO WHILE CONFIDENCE IS HIGH
THAT NEXT WEEK WILL BE COOLER THERE ISN'T CONFIDENCE IN MUCH ELSE.
POPS AND SHOWERS HAVE BEEN ADDED TO THE FCST IN THE SUNDAY TO
TUESDAY TIMEFRAME TO ACCOUNT FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF PRECIPITATION.

TEMPS WILL FLUCTUATE CONSIDERABLY BUT WILL GENLY BE AOA NRML THRU
THE PD.

&&

.AVIATION /22Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY AND SURROUNDING AREAS.

THROUGH TONIGHT...VFR SCT CLOUDS AND SW GUSTS 20-25 KTS THRU 22Z
TRANSITIONS TO BANDS OF IFR CONDITIONS IN HEAVY SHOWERS AND
EMBEDDED TSTMS MOVING---DEVELOPING ENE AS PER TAFS. GRADU WEAK
WSHIFT DURING THE NIGHT FM SSW TO NNW.

WEDNESDAY...MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE IN THE MORNING WITH
LINGERING SHOWERS ESPECIALLY FOR KMIV/KACY...THEN VFR CONDITIONS
ARE EXPECTED. LIGHT N WIND WITH SEA/BAY BREEZES EXPECTED KACY/KMIV
BECOMES A GENERAL S-SW WIND IN THE AFTN. CHC LATE DAY SHOWER
VCNTY KABE AND KRDG NEAR SECONDARY BUT MORE IMPT COLD FRONT.

OUTLOOK...
THURSDAY THRU FRI...VFR. NW-N GUSTS 15-20 KT ON THU.

FRI NIGHT INTO SAT ...DETERIORATING CONDS AND PDS OF RAIN WITH
WIDESPREAD MVFR/IFR PSBL. HVY RAIN PSBL. CFP WILL END PRECIP BY
AFTN. ESE WIND BECOMING S THEN W BEHIND CFP WITH GUSTS AS HIGH AS
20 KT BY SAT AFTN.  CONDS WILL IMPROVE TO VFR BY SAT AFTN.

SUN...VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
SCA EXPANDED TO ALL WATERS AROUND 230 PM PER REALITY. THE WINDS
SHOULD DIMINISH LATE THIS EVENING. IF SEAS DONT COME UP TO 5 FT
AT 44009 THEN THE SCA PROBABLY DISCARDS ARD 04Z.

WEDNESDAY...WINDS LIGHT...MAINLY N THRU NE THEN SHIFT S SSE IN THE
AFTN UNDER 15 KTS.

OUTLOOK...
SUB ADVISORY CONDS ARE EXPECTED THRU FRIDAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE
GENLY IN PLACE. THEN, A STORM SYSTEM WHICH WILL DEVELOP OVER THE
MIDWEST WILL APPROACH FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY. THE WIND AND
SEAS WILL INCREASE IN ADVANCE OF THIS SYSTEM AND SCA FLAGS MAY BE
NEEDED FOR THIS TIME PERIOD. CONDS SHOULD SUBSIDE FOR SUNDAY AND
MONDAY.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
FFA ISSUED.

AS MENTIONED EARLIER...HIGH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES IN CONVECTION
THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING RAISES THE POTENTIAL FOR LOCALLY HEAVY
RAIN. UNLIKE LATE LAST WEEK AND THIS WEEKEND...SLOW MOVING CELLS
SHOULD NOT BE ISSUES...AS STORM MOTIONS SHOULD EXCEED 15 KNOTS. THE
MORE LIKELY PROBLEM FOR FLASH FLOODING WOULD BE THE TRAINING OF
CELLS IN THE HIGH PRECIPITABLE WATER AIR. PWAT WILL GROW FROM THIS
MORNINGS 1.3-1.4 TO 1.75 BY 03Z30 - TONIGHT ALONG I95.

THE INITIAL THREAT SHOULD STRETCH ACROSS THE LEHIGH VALLEY INTO
NORTH CENTRAL NEW JERSEY. GRIDDED ONE HOUR FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE IS
LESS THAN AN INCH IN PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHERN POCONOS AND DELAWARE
VALLEY (WHERE VERY HEAVY RAINS OCCURRED THIS WEEKEND). THE LOWEST
VALUES...CLOSER TO THREE-QUARTERS OF AN INCH...LIE IN PORTIONS OF
NORTHERN MONTGOMERY AND BUCKS COUNTIES.

THIS INITIAL THREAT WILL BE LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING.
GIVEN THE STORMS SHOULD MOVE...AND THAT IT IS DIFFICULT TO PREDICT
TRAINING CELLS THIS FAR OUT...WILL HOLD OFF ON THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH
THIS MORNING. LATER SHIFTS MAY GET A BETTER LOOK AS WHERE STORMS
DEVELOP AND ISSUE A SHORT FUSED FLASH FLOOD WARNING LATER TODAY.

THE LATER THREAT INCLUDES DELAWARE AND SOUTHERN NEW JERSEY. AS
THE REMNANT OF THE LEE SIDE TROUGH EASES TO THE EAST...IT WILL
REMAIN A FOCUS FOR THE HIGH PRECIPITABLE WATER AIR. THE 0000 UTC
SHORT TERM GUIDANCE IS SUGGESTING MOISTURE COULD BE SIPHONED
NORTHEAST AHEAD OF BERYL AFTER MIDNIGHT AND BEFORE DAYBREAK
WEDNESDAY. IN THE ABOVE MENTIONED AREAS...FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE
NUMBERS ARE FAIRLY HIGH (DUE TO THE PREDOMINATELY SANDY SOIL). THE
AREA SHOULD BE ABLE TO HANDLE AS MUCH AS 2 OR 3 INCHES OF RAIN
BEFORE PROBLEMS DEVELOP. SINCE THIS MUCH RAIN SEEMS UNLIKELY IN A
6 HOUR PERIOD...NO HEADLINES WILL BE ISSUED FOR HERE EITHER.

THE EXCEPTION HERE COULD BE SOUTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA. WHILE NOT A
LIKELY SCENARIO...IF SOME OF THE MOISTURE ENTRAINED FROM BERYL COULD
GET INVOLVED WITH THE NIGHTTIME CONVECTION EARLY ENOUGH...THE
ABOVE MENTIONED AMOUNT OF RAIN WOULD BE A PROBLEM. WE ARE NOT SEEING
THIS A LIKELY ENOUGH OPTION TO EXPLORE VERY DEEPLY THIS
MORNING...BUT TRENDS MAY NEED TO BE WATCHED.

&&

.RIP CURRENTS...
THE KPHI SRF PRODUCT WE ISSUE DAILY WILL BE EXPANDED BEGINNING
JUNE 5TH...WEATHER PERMITTING. WE HOPE YOU WILL FIND THE NEW
PRODUCT MORE USEFUL FOR ONE STOP WEATHER SHOPPING FOR THE SHORE.
POINT AND CLICK WILL ALWAYS BE THE BEST WAY TO GO FOR DETAILS.
