AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
317 PM EDT SUN JUL 28 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE REGION TONIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD
INTO THE AREA FOR MONDAY AND TUESDAY AND THEN SLIDE OFFSHORE ON
WEDNESDAY. A BOUNDARY TO OUR SOUTH WILL MOVE NORTHWARD TOWARD OUR
AREA ON THURSDAY. LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPS ALONG THIS BOUNDARY AND THEN
MOVES ACROSS OR NEAR THE SOUTHERN PARTS OF THE REGION THURSDAY NIGHT
AND THEN MOVE TO THE EAST OF THE AREA ON FRIDAY. WEAK HIGH PRESSURE
WILL BUILD IN FOR THE END OF THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
THE SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE WRN AREA THIS EVENING AND
THE THE ERN COUNTIES SHORTLY AFTER MIDNIGHT. WE WILL CONTINUE TO
PAINT THE POSSIBILITY FOR SHOWERS PRECEDING THE FRONT AND SCT TSTMS
INTO THE EARLY EVENING. DOWNPOURS AND LOCALLY GUSTY WINDS WITH THE
TSTMS. SKY COVER WILL DECREASE TOWARDS DAWN AS DRIER AIR ARRIVES
ACROSS THE AREA. THERE COULD BE SOME PATCHY FOG BEFORE DAWN SINCE THE
DRY AIR WILL PROBABLY NOT MIX DOWN TO THE SFC UNTIL THE WINDS PICK
UP ON MONDAY. LOWS TONIGHT UPPER 50S NORTH AND LOW TO MID 60S MOST
OTHER AREAS. WINDS WILL SHIFT TO WRLY AT 5 TO 10 MPH OVERNIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM MONDAY/...
DRIER AND MORE COMFORTABLE CONDITIONS EXPECTED FOR MONDAY. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL BUILD ACROSS THE AREA WHILE A WEAK VORT MAX CROSSES
THE AREA DURING THE AFTERNOON. SKY COVER WILL BE MOSTLY SUNNY FOR
THE DAY...WITH PERHAPS A FEW LINGERING CLOUDS ALONG THE COAST EARLY.
TEMPERATURES WILL CLIMB INTO THE LOW TO MID 80S IN MOST AREAS. WINDS
WILL BE W/NW AT AROUND 10 MPH DURING THE AFTERNOON.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THE STRONG MID LEVEL CLOSED LOW STARTS TO BREAK DOWN AND LIFT TO THE
NORTHEAST MONDAY NIGHT. AS THIS LOW MOVES AWAY, WE WILL START TO SEE
A MORE ZONAL PATTERN DEVELOP ON TUESDAY AND, MORE OR LESS, IT WILL
LAST THROUGH AROUND THURSDAY. A FEW SHORTWAVES EMBEDDED IN THE FLOW
WILL ROTATE THROUGH OUR AREA WITH A BIT OF TROUGHING FROM WEDNESDAY
THROUGH FRIDAY WITH A RETURN TO MORE ZONAL FLOW FOR THE WEEKEND. A
LOOK AHEAD INDICATES THAT TROUGHING OVER THE EAST WILL SET UP AT THE
START OF THE NEXT WEEK.

AT THE SURFACE, HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD ACROSS OUR REGION THROUGH
TUESDAY BEFORE STARTING TO SLIDE TO OUR SOUTH AND EAST AS IT MOVES
OFFSHORE ON WEDNESDAY. THE COLD FRONT THAT MOVED THROUGH THE REGION
ON SUNDAY NIGHT IS LOCATED WELL TO OUR SOUTH. HOWEVER, AN AREA OF
LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPS ALONG THIS BOUNDARY AND STARTS TO MOVE TOWARD
THE REGION ON THURSDAY. THIS LOW WILL CROSS OVER OUR SOUTHERN AREAS
OR JUST SOUTH OF THEM THURSDAY NIGHT AND THEN UP THE COAST AND OFF
TOWARD THE CANADIAN MARITIMES BY FRIDAY NIGHT. WEAK HIGH PRESSURE
WILL TRY TO BUILD ACROSS THE AREA ON FRIDAY AND SATURDAY BUT THE
MODELS INDICATE THAT SURFACE TROUGHING WILL REMAIN IN PLACE DURING
THIS TIME.

MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH MOST OF WEDNESDAY IS EXPECTED TO BE DRY WITH A
RETURN TO SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ON THURSDAY, WITH THE DEVELOPING
SURFACE LOW.

TEMPERATURES WILL BE NEAR OR JUST BELOW NORMAL THROUGH THURSDAY AND
THEN GRADUALLY INCREASE THROUGH SATURDAY AS WE DEVELOP A MORE
SOUTHERLY FLOW. WITH DRIER AIR IN PLACE, IT WILL FEEL RELATIVELY
NICE OUTSIDE THROUGH MUCH OF THE UPCOMING WEEK.

HIGHS WILL BE IN THE 80S ACROSS THE REGION AND MAY EVEN APPROACH 90
IN SOME OF THE SOUTHERN MOST AREAS. HIGHS ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN
WILL REMAIN SLIGHTLY COOLER AND MAY NOT EVEN REACH 80. LOWS WILL
DROP DOWN INTO THE UPPER 50S TO LOWER 60S BUT WILL STEADILY INCREASE
THROUGH THE PERIOD.

&&

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

THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING PERIOD WILL FEATURE THE POOREST
FLYING CONDITIONS AT THE TERMINALS. PERIODS OF SHOWERS/TSTMS WILL
OCNLY LOWER CONDITIONS TO MVFR UNTIL THE FRONT PASSES THE AREA.
WINDS WILL SHIFT TO WRLY BEHIND THE FRONT AND CONDITIONS WILL
IMPROVE BACK TO VFR AS DRIER AIR ARRIVES. LOCAL FOG IS POSSIBLE
BEFORE DAWN AT THE USUAL FOGGY TAF SITES (MIV,RDG,ABE). MON...VFR
EXPECTED WITH W/NW WINDS AROUND 10 KTS BY LATE MORNING.

OUTLOOK...
MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY...MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED.

THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE DURING THE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING HOURS.
LOWER VISIBILITIES/CEILINGS POSSIBLE DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS.

&&

.MARINE...
THE SRLY FLOW ON THE WATERS HAS PICKED UP THIS AFTERNOON AS
EXPECTED. THE PRESSURE GRADIENT BETWEEN THE HIGH TO THE EAST AND THE
APPROACHING COLD FRONT HAS CAUSED WINDS TO INCREASE TO AROUND 10 TO
15 KTS. SEAS WILL BUILD TO AROUND 4 FT THIS AFTERNOON...SO SCA
CONDITIONS ARE NOT EXPECTED. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND TSTMS WILL CREATE
LOCALLY HIGHER WINDS/SEAS INTO THE EARLY OVERNIGHT PERIOD.

THE COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE DEL BAY WATERS LATE THIS EVENING AND
THE OCEAN WATERS AFTER MIDNIGHT. WINDS WILL VEER TO WRLY BEHIND THE
FRONT AND THEN POSSIBLY NW TOWARDS MORNING. WIND SPEEDS WILL REMAIN
