Area forecast discussion, Jul 23, 4:27 AM EDT, 4 hours 57 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
427 AM EDT TUE JUL 23 2013
.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE OVER THE REGION WILL MOVE NORTHEASTWARD INTO NEW YORK
STATE TODAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD INTO THE NORTHEASTERN STATES
WEDNESDAY INTO FRIDAY. SEVERAL FRONTAL BOUNDARIES MAY AFFECT THE
REGION THROUGH THE WEEKEND. A COLD FRONT IS THEN EXPECTED TO CROSS
THE AREA ON MONDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
A 06Z SURFACE ANALYSIS PLACED A STATIONARY FRONT FROM NEAR THE SOUTH
SHORE OF LONG ISLAND WESTWARD ACROSS THE NORTHERN PORTION OF
PENNSYLVANIA THEN INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION. AN AREA OF STRONG
SURFACE MOISTURE CONVERGENCE WAS ACROSS CENTRAL AND NORTHERN NEW
JERSEY. AN UPPER AIR ANALYSIS SHOWED A TROUGH FROM THE MIDWEST TO
THE NORTHEAST.
A MESO-LOW ENHANCED AREA OF HEAVY CONVECTION WILL CONTINUE TO THE
NORTHEAST EARLY THIS MORNING AND WEAKEN. THIS HAS PRODUCED AREAS OF
TORRENTIAL RAINFALL DURING THE NIGHT. WE THEN AWAIT FOR THE NEXT
SHORT WAVE EMBEDDED IN THE LONG WAVE UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH FROM THE
MIDWEST TO THE NORTHEAST. THE ADDED LIFT FROM THE EMBEDDED SHORT
WAVE MOVING ACROSS THE AREA ESPECIALLY THIS AFTERNOON WILL HELP TO
DEVELOP ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS. THE FORECAST
CHALLENGE FOR TODAY IS THE AREAL COVERAGE OF THIS RENEWED ACTIVITY.
THE INITIAL STRONG SHORT WAVE EARLY THIS MORNING PRETTY MUCH
OVERTURNED THE ATMOSPHERE ACROSS OUR AREA, HOWEVER FORECAST
SOUNDINGS INDICATE ENOUGH OF A RECOVERY OCCURS. AS A RESULT, WE
SHOULD HAVE A FAIR AMOUNT OF SHOWERS AND SOME THUNDERSTORMS
REDEVELOP AS HEATING OCCURS. THE AREAL COVERAGE HOWEVER WILL
PROBABLY NOT BE AS EXTENSIVE AS YESTERDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH EARLY
THIS MORNING THAT OCCURRED ACROSS ABOUT THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE CWA.
THIS LEADS TO THE POTENTIAL FOR ADDITIONAL FLOODING ISSUES. THERE
WERE MANY LOCALES THAT PICKED UP TORRENTIAL RAINFALL. FOR ADDITIONAL
DETAILS ON THE HEAVY RAIN AND FLOODING THREAT, SEE THE HYDROLOGY
SECTION BELOW. THE LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN SHOULD BE THE MAIN THREAT WITH
THE CONVECTION TODAY AS THE FLOW IS FORECAST TO BE ON THE LIGHT
SIDE. THIS HOWEVER COULD RESULT IN A LOCALIZED WET MICROBURST WITH A
STRONGER/MORE ORGANIZED PULSE CONVECTIVE CORE. OVERALL, THIS THREAT
LOOKS TO BE LOW.
AS FOR POPS, WE TRIED TO TAPER THEM DOWN SOME FROM WEST TO EAST FOR
A TIME EARLY THIS MORNING. THESE THEN INCREASE THROUGH THE DAY. WE
DID NOT GO HIGHER THAN LIKELY ATTM DUE TO SOME UNCERTAINTY ON THE
AREAL EXTENT OF THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. AS FOR HIGH
TEMPERATURES, WE USED A NAM/GFS MOS BLEND BUT DID LEAN TOWARD THE
WARMER GFS MOS AS ENOUGH HEATING SHOULD OCCUR.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM WEDNESDAY/...
A SHORT WAVE TROUGH IS FORECAST TO BE SHIFTING EAST OF THE AREA
DURING THE NIGHT, HOWEVER ADDITIONAL SHORT WAVE ENERGY IS FORECAST
TO ARRIVE OVERNIGHT. THIS WILL INITIALLY DRIVE SOME SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE EVENING, HOWEVER THIS ACTIVITY LOOKS TO
DIMINISH THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS AS A SURFACE BOUNDARY SHIFTS
EAST. THERE MAY HOWEVER BE A SECONDARY LINE OF SHOWERS ESPECIALLY
NORTH LATE WITH THE MAIN BOUNDARY, ALTHOUGH MUCH OF THE GUIDANCE
TENDS TO DISSIPATE THIS AS IT ARRIVES. OVERALL, SOME LOCALLY HEAVY
DOWNPOURS COULD LINGER INTO THE EVENING HOURS. OVERALL, THE POP
FORECAST IS OF LOWER CONFIDENCE GIVEN POSSIBLE SMALL SCALE
DISTURBANCES WITH A SECOND BOUNDARY TO POSSIBLY KEEP SOME CONVECTION
GOING LONGER.
OTHERWISE, SOME DRYING IS FORECAST TO ARRIVE OVERNIGHT THEREFORE THE
CLOUD COVER SHOULD THIN OUT FOR MUCH OF THE CWA. THERE IS NOT MUCH
IN THE WAY OF WIND FORECAST AS THE SURFACE FLOW TURNS NORTHWESTERLY,
THEREFORE THE DEW POINTS SHOULD HOLD UP FOR MUCH OF THE AREA. ANY
FOG POTENTIAL IS UNCERTAIN, AND THIS CAN BE REVISITED LATER.
AS FOR LOW TEMPERATURES, GENERALLY AN EVEN NAM/GFS MOS BLEND WAS
USED.
&&
.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
BUSY NIGHT WITH WX, SO DIDN'T HAVE MUCH TIME TO SPEND DOING A
MAJOR ANALYSIS OF THE EXTENDD. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN ON WED
AND WED THU FRI LOOK TO BE DRY OR MAINLY DRY. IT IS INTERESTING TO
NOTE THAT BOTH THE ECMWF AND CMC DO WANT TO BRING LOW PRESSURE
CLOSE ENOUGH TO US THU OR FRI TO BRING MORE RAIN WHILE THE GFS IS
COMPLETELY DRY. LEFT SOME LOW POPS IN THE FCST FOR THIS TIME FRAME
AND WILL SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL APPROACH FROM SERN CANADA FOR THE
WEEKEND AND BRING ANOTHER CHC OF RAIN. THE CDFNT ASSOCD WITH THE
LOW WILL MOVE THRU ABOUT MON. HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD IN
BEHIND THE CFP FOR THE EARLY PART OF NEXT WEEK.
TEMPS LOOK TO BE QUITE PLEASANT FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR AND WILL
EVEN BE BELOW NRML THU AND FRI. LOW TEMPS WILL BE IN THE 50S AND
LOWER 60S THU MRNG, WITH DEW POINTS IN 40S AND 50S THU AND FRI...A
FAR CRY FROM THE LOW TO MID 70S WE HAD LAST WEEK.
&&
.AVIATION /08Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY AND SURROUNDING AREAS.
TODAY...SOME EARLY MORNING LOW CLOUDS AND/OR FOG, THEN VFR FOR THE
MOST PART. ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE
FORECAST TO DEVELOP DURING THE COURSE OF THE DAY. WHILE THERE WILL
BE SOME THUNDERSTORMS AROUND, CONFIDENCE IS LOW IF IT WILL ACTUALLY
AFFECT A TERMINAL. THEREFORE, USED A TEMPO GROUP TO INDICATE SHOWERS
AND LEFT THE THUNDER OUT AT THIS TIME. THIS CAN BE BETTER DEFINED AS
SHOWERS/STORMS REDEVELOP DURING THE COURSE OF THE DAY. LIGHT WINDS
EARLY WILL INCREASE FROM THE WEST-SOUTHWEST TO NEAR 10 KNOTS THEN
SHIFT TO THE WEST-NORTHWEST IN THE AFTERNOON.
TONIGHT...GENERALLY VFR. HOWEVER CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES MAY LOWER
TO MVFR/IFR WITH LOCAL EVENING SHOWERS AND SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS.
THERE COULD BE SOME LOCAL FOG LATE. GENERALLY LIGHT NORTHWEST WINDS.
OUTLOOK...
WED...VFR. HIGH CONFIDENCE
THU-FRI...CURRENTLY VFR. HOWEVER LOW CONFIDENCE AS SOME GUID IS
INDICATING PRECIP AND LOWER CIGS/VSBYS.
SAT...VFR EARLY, POTENTIAL LOWER CIGS VSBYS LATER AS LOW PRESSURE
APPROACHES. LOW TO MDT CONFIDENCE.
&&
.MARINE...
THE CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST TO REMAIN BELOW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY
CRITERIA THROUGH TONIGHT. A STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY DRAPED ACROSS
OUR NORTHERN WATERS EARLY THIS MORNING SHOULD SHIFT NORTHWARD SOME
DURING THE DAY. THIS WILL RESULT IN A MORE SOUTHWESTERLY WIND. THERE
COULD BE SOME INCREASE IN THE WINDS THROUGH TONIGHT, HOWEVER THIS IS
WITHIN A WARM AIRMASS THEREFORE IT IS ANTICIPATED TO REMAIN UNDER 25
KNOTS. THE WAVEWATCH GUIDANCE HAS HAD A HIGH BIAS IN A SOUTHERLY
FLOW WAA REGIME. THEREFORE, WE WENT A BIT BELOW THIS GUIDANCE
THROUGH TONIGHT.
OUTLOOK...
NO MARINE HEADLINES ANTICIPATED THROUGH AT LEAST SATURDAY.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN FOR WED THRU FRI. THERE CUD BE AN
INCREASE IN SEAS THU/FRI WITH LOW PRESSURE NEARBY AS SOME OF THE
MDLS ARE SUGGESTING, BUT AT THIS TIME IT STILL APPEARS TO BE BELOW
SCA CRITERIA.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
A GOOD PART OF THE AREA PICKED UP TORRENTIAL RAINFALL YESTERDAY
AFTERNOON THROUGH EARLY THIS MORNING. THIS RESULTED IN 2 TO 6 INCHES
OF RAIN IN SEVERAL PLACES. THERE IS ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND SOME
THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED TO OCCUR TODAY INTO THIS EVENING, AND SOME OF
THIS CAN PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN ONCE AGAIN. THE PW VALUES ARE
FORECAST TO LOWER SOME AS THE MAIN PLUME OF 2.00-2.25 INCHES SHIFTS
EASTWARD. THIS WOULD LOWER THE RAINFALL RATES SOME COMPARED TO
YESTERDAY AND EARLY THIS MORNING, HOWEVER THE THREAT FOR LOCALLY
HEAVY RAIN STILL REMAINS. SINCE SEVERAL AREAS PICKED UP A LOT OF
RAIN THE PAST 24 HOURS, FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE IS REDUCED. IF
CONVECTIVE ELEMENTS END UP TRAINING OVER THE SAME AREAS DUE TO A
LIGHT FLOW, A FLASH FLOOD THREAT WILL INCREASE. AS A RESULT, A
FLASH FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED THROUGH 00Z THIS EVENING. WE
INCLUDED THE COUNTIES THAT PICKED UP HEAVY RAIN OVER A LARGER AREA.
THE URBAN INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR IS MORE VULNERABLE, ESPECIALLY IF
ADDITIONAL RUNOFF QUICKLY DRAINS INTO WATERWAYS THAT RESPOND FASTER.
&&
.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
THE ASTRONOMICAL TIMES CONTINUE TO RUN HIGH DUE TO YESTERDAY'S FULL
MOON. THE FLOW IS FORECAST TO BE SOUTHWEST TO WEST TODAY, HOWEVER
WE MAY NEED AN ADVISORY FOR THIS EVENING'S HIGH TIDE. WE WILL SEE
HOW THE TIDAL DEPARTURE TRENDS BEHAVE INTO THE EARLY AFTERNOON
BEFORE ISSUING A HEADLINE.
&&
.RIP CURRENTS...
OUR LOCAL PROGRAM CALCULATED A MODERATE RISK OF RIP CURRENTS ALONG
THE NEW JERSEY SHORE FOR TODAY BASED ON A SOUTH-SOUTHWEST WIND
AROUND 10 KNOTS ALONG WITH 4 FOOT SEAS AND AN 8 SECOND WAVE
PERIOD. THE PROGRAM DETERMINED THAT THERE WOULD BE A LOW RISK FOR
THE DELAWARE BEACHES.
