AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
649 AM EDT SAT JUN 8 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
THE AREA OF LOW PRESSURE THAT WAS TROPICAL STORM ANDREA WAS
CENTERED OFF THE NORTHERN PART OF THE NEW JERSEY COAST EARLY THIS
MORNING. THE LOW WILL RACE TO THE NORTHEAST AND IT SHOULD REACH
NOVA SCOTIA THIS AFTERNOON. WEAK HIGH PRESSURE FROM THE WEST IS
EXPECTED TO FOLLOW FOR TONIGHT AND SUNDAY. A WARM FRONT FROM THE
SOUTH IS FORECAST TO LIFT THROUGH OUR REGION ON SUNDAY NIGHT AND
MONDAY FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER FRONTAL BOUNDARY FROM THE WEST LATE ON
TUESDAY. WEAK HIGH PRESSURE IS ANTICIPATED FOR WEDNESDAY AND
THURSDAY WITH ANOTHER FRONTAL BOUNDARY FROM THE WEST EXPECTED
AROUND THURSDAY NIGHT.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
THE REMNANT LOW OF WHAT WAS TROPICAL STORM ANDREA WILL CONTINUE
TO QUICKLY MOVE TO OUR NORTHEAST TODAY. A WEAK SURFACE BOUNDARY
WILL REMAIN ACROSS OUR AREA TODAY, WHILE A SHORT WAVE/VORT MAX
MOVES ACROSS THE AREA DURING THE DAY AS WELL. THERE IS NOT A LOT
OF MOISTURE AVAILABLE TODAY NOW THAT THE COASTAL LOW MOVES TO OUR
NORTHEAST AND DRIER WEST/NORTHWEST WINDS TAKE OVER. HOWEVER, PW
VALUES ARE EXPECTED TO BE AROUND 1-1.25 INCHES, SO THERE MAY BE
ENOUGH MOISTURE AROUND FOR THE VORT MAX TO KEEP ISOLATED SHOWERS,
AND WITH SOME INSTABILITY THROUGH THE DAY AN ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORM, IN THE FORECAST FOR THE DAY.

MAV/MET MOS NUMBERS WERE FAIRLY CLOSE, SO A BLEND OF THE TWO WERE
TAKEN WHICH GIVES HIGHS PRETTY CLOSE TO NORMAL.

FLOOD WARNINGS CONTINUE TO BE ISSUED FOR SEVERAL OF OUR LOCAL
RIVERS AND CREEKS, PLEASE REFER TO THE LATEST FLOOD STATEMENTS FOR
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM SUNDAY/...
THE AFOREMENTIONED WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY MAY BEGIN TO WASHOUT AS
WEAK HIGH PRESSURE BEGINS TO BUILD ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT. ANY
SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY FROM THE AFTERNOON SHOULD DISSIPATE
QUICKLY AS DAYTIME HEATING IS LOST AND THE SHORT WAVE ALOFT PASSES
TO OUR NORTHWEST. WE SHOULD THEN SEE PARTIAL CLEARING SKIES
OVERNIGHT. A BLEND OF MAV/MET MOS, WITH A LITTLE MORE WEIGHT
TOWARD THE SLIGHTLY COOLER MAV MOS.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
A MID LEVEL TROUGH IS FORECAST TO BE LOCATED OVER THE MISSISSIPPI
RIVER VALLEY ON SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT. THE FEATURE IS EXPECTED
TO MOVE EASTWARD AND ITS AXIS SHOULD PASS OVER OUR REGION ON
TUESDAY. A MID LEVEL LEVEL RIDGE IS ANTICIPATED TO BUILD OVER THE
MIDDLE PART OF THE COUNTRY IN THE WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY TIME
FRAME WITH A TROUGH REMAINING OVER THE EAST.

CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST TO BE MAINLY RAIN-FREE ON SUNDAY.
HOWEVER, MARGINAL INSTABILITY ACROSS OUR WESTERN AND SOUTHERN
COUNTIES MAY RESULT IN ISOLATED SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM
DEVELOPMENT, MAINLY IN THE AFTERNOON.

THE SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING MID LEVEL TROUGH
FROM SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY WILL RESULT IN AN UNSETTLED
PERIOD IN OUR REGION. THE PATTERN IS EXPECTED TO TAP INTO SOME
GULF MOISTURE. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES ARE FORECAST TO RISE INTO
THE 1.75 TO 2.00 INCH RANGE FOR MONDAY. A SURFACE WARM FRONT IS
EXPECTED TO LIFT THROUGH OUR REGION FROM SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY.
AS A RESULT, WE HAVE GONE WITH THE LIKELIHOOD OF SHOWERS ALONG
WITH A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS. WEAK IMPULSES IN THE MID LEVEL
FLOW MAY HELP TRIGGER SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS. HOWEVER, ANY
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY MAY BE LIMITED BY THE CLOUD COVER AND THE
LACK OF SIGNIFICANT INSTABILITY.

SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED AGAIN FOR TUESDAY AS THE MID LEVEL TROUGH
PASSES OVER OUR REGION, IT SHOULD BE ACCOMPANIED BY A SURFACE
FRONT LATE IN THE DAY.

THE MODEL GUIDANCE SOLUTIONS VARY FOR THE WEDNESDAY THROUGH
FRIDAY TIME FRAME. THEREFORE, WE WILL NOT MAKE MUCH CHANGE TO THE
PREVIOUS FORECAST. IT LOOKS TO BE MAINLY RAIN-FREE DURING THE
THREE DAY PERIOD BUT THERE MAY BE SUBTLE FEATURES TO TRIGGER
CLOUDS AND A FEW SHOWERS. THEIR TIMING AND PLACEMENT REMAINS A LOW
CONFIDENCE FORECAST.

AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES SHOULD BE A BIT ABOVE NORMAL FOR SUNDAY,
THEN NEAR NORMAL FOR MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY. NIGHTTIME TEMPERATURES
ARE FORECAST TO START THE WEEK ABOVE NORMAL AND THEY SHOULD DROP
GRADUALLY TO NEAR NORMAL FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /12Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY AND SURROUNDING AREAS.

A FEW MORE HOURS OF MVFR CONDITIONS POSSIBLE THIS MORNING  AS
THERE REMAINS CLOUD COVER ACROSS THE AREA, EVEN AS THE REMNANTS OF
WHAT WAS TROPICAL STORM ANDREA MOVES TO OUR NORTHEAST. CONDITIONS
ARE EXPECTED TO IMPROVE TO VFR THROUGH THE MORNING AND THEN REMAIN
VFR FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON INTO SATURDAY NIGHT. THERE
COULD BE SOME SCATTERED SHOWERS, AND POSSIBLY A THUNDERSTORM
DURING THE DAY. BUT FOR NOW THEY WERE NOT INCLUDED IN ANY TAF
SINCE THEY ARE EXPECTED TO BE SCATTERED AT THIS TIME

WINDS WILL START OUT OF THE NORTHWEST, THEN BECOME MORE WESTERLY
DURING THE DAY. WINDS MAY PERIODICALLY GUST AROUND 15-20 KNOTS,
ESPECIALLY EARLY THIS MORNING BEFORE SUNRISE, THEN DURING THE
AFTERNOON. ANY GUSTS SHOULD DROP OFF BY SUNSET, THEN WINDS ARE
EXPECTED TO BECOME LIGHT AND VARIABLE SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY
MORNING.

OUTLOOK...
