Special Weather Statement, NWS Philadelphia/Mount Holly

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
341 PM EDT TUE SEP 18 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A STRONG BUT SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE REGION LATER
TONIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD IN FROM THE NORTH FOR
WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY. ANOTHER COLD FRONT LOOKS TO PUSH THROUGH
OUR REGION LATE IN THE DAY ON SATURDAY WITH ANOTHER AREA OF HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDING IN BEHIND IT FOR THE EARLY PART OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
THE WRF-NMM INITIALIZATION LOOKED SLIGHTLY BETTER EXCEPT AT
925MB OVER THE GFS. AMONG THE HI RES MODELS THE WRF-NMM-E LOOKED
THE BEST AT HANDLING THE ONGOING CONVECTION. THE WRF-NMMB ALSO
IS VERIFYING BEST WITH THE DOUBLE FRONTAL STRUCTURE. REGARDLESS
MOST OF THE SERIOUS WEATHER ACTIVITY IS WITH THE LEAD FRONT.

SEVERE, THE SHEAR IS OFF THE CHARTS, BUT LOW LEVEL INSTABILITY IS
MEAGER. WE ARE WATCHING ALL RADARS FOR POSSIBLE SHORT LIVED TOR(S).
ANY ENHANCING OF THE SYNOPTIC SCALE WINDS BY THUNDERSTORMS COULD
ALSO BRING DAMAGING WINDS DOWNWARD TO THE SURFACE. HIGHEST THREAT
NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS.

FLOODING. WE DO HAVE FLASH FLOOD AND FLOOD WARNING UP FOR THE
NORTHWESTERN PART OF OUR CWA. THIS AREA WAS HIT THE HARDEST WITH THE
HEAVY RAIN WHILE MOST OF THE REST OF OUR CWA HAS AVOIDED HEAVIER
RAIN SO FAR. SO WHEN THIS BATCH DOES MOVE EAST, WE ARE EXPECTING
POOR DRAINAGE FLOODING TO REMAIN THE LARGEST CONCERN.

WIND, FORECAST SOUNDINGS HAVE THE LLJ INCREASING BY ABOUT ANOTHER 10
KNOTS AND PEAKING ACROSS OUR CWA THRU 00Z. WE ARE AT OUR PEAK FOR
LAPSE RATES AS WE ARE TYPING, SO TAKING A TWO-THIRDS ONE THIRD
APPROACH SHOULD STILL HAVE US AROUND THE THRESHOLD FOR WIND ADVY.
THE WIND THREAT WILL DIMINISH AS THE EVENING CONTINUES.

AS FOR SENSIBLE WEATHER, WE USED SREF PRODUCTS TO DELINEATE THE END
OF TSRA CHANCES THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT. THAT ENSEMBLE HAS WORKED
WELL WITH THIS EVENT. THE GFS IS STILL SHOWING SOME DECENT
FRONTOGENETIC FORCING AS WELL AS MID LEVEL QVEC CONVERGENCE
CONTINUING ALONG AND ABOVE THE SECOND FRONTAL BOUNDARY. IF WE ARE
CLOSE TO BEING CORRECT, ONCE THE CONVECTIVE RAINS GO THROUGH, THERE
MAY BE SOME OVERNIGHT MORE STRATIFORM TYPE RAIN AS THIS SECOND
FEATURE COMES THRU.

BECAUSE THE GFS'S SOLUTION FOR THE FRONTAL BOUNDARIES IS ALREADY TOO
SIMPLISTIC AS OF 18Z, WE WILL WORK ON THE PREMISE THAT ITS CAA IS A
BIT TOO AGGRESSIVE OVERNIGHT AND THUS OUR TEMPS FALL SLOWER AND ARE
CLOSER TO NAM MOS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY/...
MOST IF NOT ALL OF THE RAIN SHOULD BE OVER AS WEDNESDAY MORNING
STARTS. THE FORECAST SOUNDINGS ARE ALSO MORE OPTIMISTIC AS FAR AS A
LACK OF MOISTURE TO BE LIFTED IN SPITE OF SOME FORCING AND THE H2.5
JET BEING OVER OUR CWA. WE TRENDED THE CLOUD AND SKY COVER TOWARD A
SUNNIER DIRECTION. WITH THAT, WE UPPED MAX TEMPS SLIGHTLY BASED ON
MORE SUNSHINE.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
DRY WX IS EXPECTED FOR MOST OF THE EXTENDED PD, WITH SOME RAIN
FORECAST AROUND THE WEEKEND. FOR THE START OF THE EXTENDD PORTION
OF THE FCST...WED NIGHT...AN AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE
ANCHORED TO OUR NE AND WILL RIDGE DOWN OVER THE AREA, THIS WILL
KEEP DRY AND PLEASANT CONDS OVER THE REGION. THE HIGH WILL MOVE
NEWD THRU THU AS AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE ROTATES NR JAMES BAY WITH
NO IMPACT ON OUR SENSIBLE WX. ENOUGH OF THE RIDGE REMAINS TO OUR
NE WITH ANOTHER TO THE S TO KEEP THE AREA DRY THRU FRI. HOWEVER,
BY FRI, LOW PRESSURE WILL BE DEVELOPING OFF THE COAST AND COULD
SEND SOME MORE CLOUDINESS OUR WAY.

BY LATER FRIDAY ANOTHER LOW AND CDFNT WILL APPROACH THE REGION
FROM THE W. THE LOW IS FCST TO MOVE NEWD ACRS ERN CAN AND THE
ATTENDANT CDFNT WILL TRACK IN OUR DIRECTION. THIS FRONT WILL BE
KNOCKING ON THE DOOR BEGINNING SATURDAY MORNING OR AFTN WITH SOME
SHOWERS AND WILL CROSS THE REGION BY SAT EVE BEFORE CLEARING THE
REGION BY SUN MORNING. THERE ARE STILL SOME TIMING DIFFS WRT THIS
FRONT BTWN THE ECMWF AND GFS. THE EC IS SLOWER AND WOULD KEEP MOST
OF SAT DRY. HOWEVER, IT SEEMS OF LAT THE EC HAS BEEN TOO SLOW, SO
THAT COULD END UP BEING A BIT OPTIMISTIC.  THEN, A LARGE AREA OF
HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE CNTRL CONUS BEGINS BUILD EWD. THIS HIGH
WILL MOVE FURTHER EWD INTO THE ERLY PORTION OF NEXT WEEK BRINGING
ANOTHER ROUND OF DRY AND PLEASANT WX THRU AT LEAST TUE. BY WED, ITS
PSBL THAT A CDFNT CUD BE APPROACHING THE REGION. TEMPS WILL GENLY
BE AROUND NRML THRU THE WKND THEN DROP BELOW NRML BEHIND THE FROPA
INTO ERLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

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

HEAVY RAIN ASSOCIATED WITH AN APPROACHING STORM SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE
TO SPREAD EAST ACROSS THE TAF SITES THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS
EVENING. CONDITIONS ARE MOSTLY VFR OR MVFR EARLY THIS AFTERNOON, BUT
AS THE SHOWERS SPREAD EASTWARD, CONDITIONS WILL DETERIORATE. AS THE
HEAVIEST LINE OF SHOWERS, AND POSSIBLE THUNDERSTORMS, REACHES THE
AREA LATER THIS AFTERNOON/THIS EVENING, THE TERMINALS WILL LIKELY
BECOME IFR FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. THERE ARE ACTUALLY TWO FRONTS THAT
ARE MOVING TOWARD THE AREA; THE FIRST HAS THE HEAVY RAINFALL, LOW
CIG/VSBY CONDITIONS, AND WIND A WIND SHIFT, AND WILL SLOWLY MOVE
ACROSS THE TAF SITES AROUND 22-02Z FROM WEST TO EAST. THE SECOND
FRONT WILL CROSS THE AREA OVERNIGHT, AND WILL HAVE ANOTHER WIND
SHIFT WITH NORTHWEST WINDS TO FOLLOW; ALSO, WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO
DIMINISH BEHIND THE SECOND FRONT. AHEAD AND ALONG THE INITIAL
FRONT, WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO GUST IN THE UPPER 20S TO MID 30S.

ON WEDNESDAY, WINDS MAY BE A BIT GUSTY EARLY IN THE DAY ONCE WE
BEGIN TO MIX-OUT BY MID-MORNING, BUT THE WINDS GUSTS WILL LIKELY
DIMINISH THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD PREVAIL FOR
THE ENTIRE DAY.

OUTLOOK...
WED NIGHT - FRI...VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED. POSSIBLE MVFR VSBYS IN
THE EARLY MORNING HOURS OUTSIDE OF THE PHL METRO AREA.

SAT-SAT NIGHT...STARTS OFF VFR WITH POSSIBLE MVFR CIGS AND VSBYS AS
COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH LATER IN THE DAY. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
TSRA ALSO POSSIBLE DURG THE AFTN AND EVE.

SUN...RETURN TO VFR WITH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING INTO REGION.&&

.MARINE...
GALE WARNINGS REMAIN IN EFFECT AS WE HAVE ALREADY HAD SOME GALE
FORCE WIND GUSTS AND THE LLJ WILL BE MOVING OVER OUR AREA WATERS
THIS EVENING. WITH BETTER MODEL CONSENSUS, WE MOVED THE ENDING TIME
FOR THE GALES ON DELAWARE BAY TO MIDNIGHT. ON THE BAY OVERNIGHT AND
INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY AND ON THE OCEAN WATERS DEEPER INTO WEDNESDAY,
THERE WILL BE A PERIOD OF EITHER SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WINDS. SEAS
ARE LIKELY TO SUBSIDE BELOW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CRITERIA ON THE
OCEAN DURING THE AFTERNOON.

OUTLOOK...
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE NORTH-NORTHWEST AND WINDS BEGIN
TO TURN MORE TOWARDS THE NORTHEAST BY THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. SEAS
WILL SUBSIDE WED NIGHT INTO THU AND CONDS ARE THEN EXPECTED TO
REMAIN BELOW SCA THRU AT LEAST SAT. THEN, THE NEXT CDFNT WILL
APPROACH FROM THE W WITH SHOWERS AND POSSIBLE THUNDERSTORMS.
WINDS WILL GENERALLY BE OUT OF THE SOUTH- SOUTHEAST ON SATURDAY
AND THEN TURN TOWARDS THE WEST AFTER THE FRONT GOES THROUGH BY
SUNDAY...SEAS MAY INCREASE AHEAD OF THE FRONT.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
MINOR FLOODING IS OCCURRING WITH THE HIGH TIDE CYCLE IN THE TIDAL
DELAWARE, SO THAT ADVISORY WILL BE KEPT GOING. THE NEXT HIGH TIDE
CYCLE, THE WINDS SHOULD BE MUCH LIGHTER AND THE FRESHWATER RUNOFF
DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE AS MUCH. LATEST DBOFS GUIDANCE DOES NOT TAKE
THE SUBSEQUENT HIGH TIDE TO MINOR TIDAL LEVELS. SO WE ARE NOT GOING
TO EXTEND ADVISORIES FOR THE NEXT HIGH TIDE CYCLE WITH THIS PACKAGE.

CBOFS IS STILL POINTING TO ADVISORY LEVEL TIDES UP THE CHESAPEAKE
BAY THIS EVENING INTO THE OVERNIGHT. LESS OF A TIME FOR A WIND SHIFT
THERE, SO WIDESPREAD MINOR TIDAL FLOODING LOOKING TO BE A MUCH MORE
LIKELY OUTCOME.

&&

.RIP CURRENTS...
WE HAVE A HIGH RISK OF RIP CURRENTS FOR TODAY, WITH WAVES IN THE
SURF ZONE EXPECTED TO BE MAINLY IN THE 4 TO 7 FOOT RANGE ALONG WITH
A STRONG SOUTHERLY WIND. CONDITIONS SHOULD IMPROVE DURING THE MIDDLE
AND LATTER PART OF THE WEEK.
