AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE STATE COLLEGE PA
237 AM EDT THU JUN 13 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
SFC LOW LOCATED ALONG THE INDIANA...MICHIGAN BORDER EARLY THIS
MORNING WILL TRACK EASTWARD ACROSS PENNSYLVANIA AND GRADUALLY
STRENGTHEN THIS AFTERNOON. A COLD FRONT WILL DIVE SOUTHEAST ACROSS
THE STATE TONIGHT...FOLLOWED BY BRISK NORTH TO NORTHWEST WINDS AND
UNSEASONABLY COOL CONDITIONS ON FRIDAY. A LARGE HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM
WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION FOR SATURDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 9 AM THIS MORNING/...
ELEVATED CONVECTION IS SPREADING INTO PORTIONS OF THE CENTRAL AND
WESTERN MTNS ATTM...AND WILL QUICKLY BLOSSOM INTO A WIDESPREAD HEAVY
RAIN EVENT WITH EMBEDDED...FREQUENT LIGHTNING PRODUCING TSRA THROUGH
THE MID MORNING HOURS.

MCS AND ASSOCIATED LEAD SQUALL LINE /NEARING A KCLE TO KCMH LINE
ATTM/ WILL CONTINUE TO RACE EAST AT AROUND 45 KTS...AND REACH OUR
FAR WESTERN ZONES RIGHT AROUND 09Z /WITH THE BRUNT OF THE STRAIGHT
LINE WIND THREAT OCCURRING FROM CLEARFIELD COUNTY...SOUTH THROUGH
SOMERSET CTY BETWEEN 09Z-10Z/.

LATEST MDL DATA CONTINUES TO INDICATE THAT THE ARRIVAL OF LL JET AND
PLUME OF ANOMALOUS PWATS WILL PRODUCE A BAND OF MODERATE TO HVY RAIN
NORTH OF WARM FRONT OVR CENTRAL/NORTHERN PA BEGINNING EARLY
TODAY.

WHAT SEEMS CERTAIN IS THAT THE SYSTEM WILL BE UNSEASONABLY
VIGOROUS. IT HAS ALL THE LOOK AND FEEL OF A WINTER SYSTEM WITH A
STRONG COUPLED UPPER JET AND POTENT LOW LEVEL JET THAT SURGES
SUMMER TIME HEAT AND HUMIDITY NORTHEAST INTO THE FCST AREA.

FLOOD WATCH CONTINUES ACROSS THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA...AS WE
THINK THE RISK OF AT LEAST LOCALIZED DOWNPOURS CAUSING PROBLEMS
LOOKS REASONABLE. SOME OF THE LATEST GUIDANCE ARGUING AGAINST THE
TYPE OF WIDESPREAD NUMBERS NEEDED FOR FLOODING INCLUDE THE
SREF/GEFS...CONFINING THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL OF NEAR 2 INCHES
ACROSS THE PA/NY BORDER WITH MEAN QPF OF ONLY ARND 1 INCH FURTHER
SOUTH. HOWEVER WITH MODELS NOTORIOUSLY BAD AT HANDLING CONVECTION
AND RECENT SOAKING RAINS...WE THOUGHT THE THREAT WARRANTED THE
WATCH.

&&

.SHORT TERM /9 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH 6 PM FRIDAY/...
THE SURFACE LOW IS FCST TO TRACK THROUGH SOUTH/CENTRAL PA DURING
THE DAY TOMORROW WITH A RAPID SURGE IN PWATS...CAPE AND LOW LEVEL
SHEAR EXPECTED INTO THE AREA. CONDITIONS HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO
CHANGE RAPIDLY AS WE TRANSITION FROM A QUASI-LINEAR CONVECTIVE
THREAT POSSIBLY INTO A SUPERCELL THREAT IF THE SFC LOW CAN MANAGE
TO TRACK THROUGH CENTRAL PA...AS BULK OF MDL DATA SUGGEST. BEST
COMBINATION OF SHEAR AND INSTABILITY COMES TOGETHER OVR THE LOWER
SUSQ VALLEY ON THURSDAY...WITH SREF/GEFS CAPES NR 1500 J/KG AND
STRONG 0-1KM AND DEEP LYR SHEAR SUPPORTIVE OF SUPERCELLS.

ALTHOUGH ENSEMBLE MEAN QPF APPEARS TO FALL SHORT OF FFG...SOME
OPER RUNS SUGGEST HIGHER LOCALIZED TOTALS AND FLOODING STILL
POSSIBLE. MARFC NUMBERS INDICATE THE AREA CAN HANDLE A WIDESPREAD
1-2 INCHES OVR A 12-24 HOUR PERIOD. HOWEVER...WITH THE POTENTIAL
FOR THE RAIN TO COME IN SHORT INTENSE BURSTS...SIGNIFICANT
PROBLEMS COULD DEVELOP QUICKLY IN TYPICALLY FLOOD PRONE AREAS.

THE SEVERE THREAT WILL AS USUAL BE HANDLED IN THE VERY SHORT TERM
AND ADDRESSED AS IT POSSIBLY DEVELOPS THURSDAY. EXACTLY WHERE THE
LOW TRACKS AND HOW FAR NORTH THE WARM FRONT CAN INVADE WILL
DELINEATE THE THREAT FOR ROTATING STORMS.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
NOT A LOT OF CHANGE FROM YESTERDAY.

DID EXTEND THE MENTION OF SHOWERS INTO FRIDAY AFT...GIVEN
SECONDARY COLD FRONT DROPPING SE...AND COLD AIR ALOFT.

SATURDAY STILL LOOKS TO BE THE BETTER DAY THIS WEEKEND.

DID BRING SHOWERS AND STORMS INTO THE AREA SUNDAY MORNING
NOW...IN LINE WITH OTHER OFFICES AND NEW GUIDANCE.

STILL A CHC OF SHOWERS AND STORMS ON MONDAY...AS WE ARE IN
THE WARM SECTOR...BUT WEAK WAVES ALOFT MOVING IN.

COLD FRONT MOVES INTO PA ON TUE...STILL A CHC OF SHOWERS
AND STORMS.

WENT WITH A DRY DAY ON WED...WITH COOLER TEMPS.

&&

.AVIATION /07Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...

A LINE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ALONG AN INCOMING BOUNDARY
WILL MOVE THROUGH THE TAF SITES FROM WEST TO EAST OVERNIGHT.
EXPECT TSRA AT AOO BY 07Z...WITH TSRA AT UNV BY 10Z AND
CONTINUING EASTWARD THROUGH 14Z. THIS  POTENT LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
WILL REDUCE CONDS WITH  THE POTENTIAL FOR LARGE IMPACTS FROM
STRONG THUNDERSTORMS AND WIND SHEAR THROUGH TOMORROW...BEFORE
MOVING EASTWARD BY TOMORROW NIGHT. EXPECT DAYTIME GUSTY WINDS AS
HIGH AS 25KTS FROM THE WEST.

OUTLOOK...
THU AFT-THU NIGHT...LARGE IMPACTS FROM STRONG TSTMS AND WIND
SHEAR LIKELY. OTHERWISE SHOWERS CONTINUE. REDUCTIONS ALL AREAS THU
AFT- EVE...THEN WIDESPREAD REDUCTIONS NW HALF THU NIGHT.

FRI...CHANCE OF SHOWERS...MAINLY EARLY. PRIMARILY VFR CONDITIONS.

SAT...NO SIG WX.

SUN...MAINLY VFR WITH SCATTERED SOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
