Area forecast discussion, Mar 6, 10:41 AM EST, 2 hours 42 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
1041 AM EST WED MAR 6 2013
.SYNOPSIS...
AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE OFF THE VIRGINIA COAST DURING
TODAY, AND INTENSIFY INTO A STRONG COASTAL STORM. THIS STORM WILL
SLOWLY MOVE EASTWARD THROUGH FRIDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER
OUR AREA SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY, BEFORE SHIFTING OFF THE COAST.
ANOTHER STORM SYSTEM ORGANIZES OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS SUNDAY, THEN
WILL TRACK EASTWARD INTO THE GREAT LAKES AND OHIO VALLEY EARLY
MONDAY. THIS SYSTEM LOOKS TO ARRIVE INTO OUR REGION LATER MONDAY
INTO TUESDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
THE MAIN UPDATE WITH THIS PACKAGE WAS TO EXPAND THE WIND ADVISORY
NORTHWARD INTO SOUTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA AND PORTIONS OF CENTRAL NEW
JERSEY. WINDS ARE BEGINNING TO GUST IN THE 40-45 MPH RANGE NOW IN
THESE AREAS AND WE COULD SEE SEE SLIGHTLY HIGHER WINDS THROUGH THE
REST OF THE DAY. NORTH OF THESE AREAS, WE COULD STILL SEE WIND
GUSTS OF 35-40 MPH.
NO CHANGE TO THE PRECIPITATION FORECAST AT THIS TIME AS LATEST
RADAR IMAGERY SHOWED PRECIP, MAINLY IN THE FORM OF RAIN AFFECTING
DELAWARE, MARYLAND, SOUTHERN NEW JERSEY AND PORTIONS OF EASTERN
PENNSYLVANIA. TEMPS HAVE ACTUALLY RISEN A BIT ACROSS MUCH OF THE
AREA THIS MORNING, ALTHOUGH THIS WARMING TREND SHOULD END SOON AND
TEMPERATURES SHOULD REMAIN FAIRLY STEADY OR SLOWLY DROP THROUGH
THE REST OF THE DAY. IT APPEARS AS THAT THE AREAS WHERE PRECIP IS
FALLING HEAVIER, IT IS LIQUID AND WHERE IT IS LIGHTER (AKA TO THE
W CURRENTLY), IT IS SNOW.
AFTER DAYS OF ANTICIPATION, THE STORM THAT HAS BEEN WELL DISCUSSED,
BUT NOT NECESSARILY WELL MODELED IS BEGINNING TO IMPACT THE AREA.
NORMALLY, AS WE GET CLOSER TO THE EVENT, CONFIDENCE INCREASES.
HOWEVER, THIS IS ONE OF THOSE ANOMALOUS EVENTS, WHERE THAT IS NOT
NECESSARILY THE CASE. WHILE OVERALL, THE MDLS HAVE A DECENT HANDLE
ON THE TRACK OF THE LOW, THERE ARE ENOUGH DIFFERENCES IN THE
INDIVIDUAL DETAILS TO CONTRIBUTE TO INCREASED UNCERTAINTY. THE NAM
CONTINUES TO BE ABNORMALLY WET AND COLD AND IS BEING DISREGARDED.
IT ALSO TENDS TO STALL THE LOW OVER THE WATER FOR AN EXTENDED PD
OF TIME.
THE CMC AND GFS ARE IN DECENT AGREEMENT AND HAVE A BIT MORE NLY SOLN
THAN THE UKMET AND ECMWF WHICH ARE A BIT FURTHER S. THE MORE SRN
SOLNS WOULD MEAN LESS QPF, BUT A BIT COLDER SOLNS. WHEN THE 06/00Z
ECMWF CAME IN, IT HAD LESS QPF THEN THE 06/00Z GFS SOLN WHICH
SUPPORTS THIS HYPOTHESIS. FOR NOW WILL LEAN TWD A MORE SRN TRACK.
THE GENL FCST RATIONALE REMAINS THE SAME. PRECIP WILL BE MAINLY
RAIN S OF I-95 TODAY AND GENLY SNOW N OF THERE. ITS MARCH, AND WITH
THE HIGHER SUN ANGLE, IT WILL BE TOUGH FOR IT TO ACCUMULATE MUCH
DURG THE DAY ON TREATED SURFACES UNLESS IT COMES DOWN HEAVY. ONE OF
THE KEY QUESTIONS REMAINS WHERE THE PRECIP CUT OFF WILL BE. IF THE
MORE SRN TRACK OF THE ECMWF/UKMET IS MORE CORRECT, THEN THE NRN
PORTIONS OF THE REGION MAY NOT SEE MUCH AT ALL.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM THURSDAY/...
THE FCST BECOMES MORE PROBLEMATIC THIS EVENING. THE PRECIP SHUD
TRANSITION TO SNOW AND THEN ITS JUST A QUESTION OF HOW MUCH QPF IS
LEFT. BOTH THE EC AND GFS HAVE SOME QPF BETWEEN 07/00Z AND 07/06Z
AND MUCH LESS BETWEEN 07/06Z AND 07/12Z. SO IT REMAINS TO BE SEEN
HOW MUCH QPF IS LEFT AND OF COURSE, WHAT THE TEMPS ARE.
SO, FOR NOW, WILL CONVERT THE WINTER STORM WATCH TO A WINTER WEATHER
ADVISORY FOR ALL COUNTIES WHERE IT WAS IN EFFECT AND ADD MERCER,
MONMOUTH, OCEAN, SOMERSET AND HUNTED IN NJ. DEPENDING ON WHAT LATER
GUIDANCE DOES, IT THE ADVY CUD BE UPGRADED TO A WARNING FOR PORTIONS
OF THE AREA.
&&
.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
A RATHER ROBUST CLOSED LOW IS FORECAST TO BE EAST OF OUR AREA
THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY, HOWEVER A SECOND PIECE OF ENERGY LOOKS TO
SLIDE SOUTHEASTWARD FROM THE GREAT LAKES. SINCE WE ARE IN A BLOCKY
PATTERN, THE MAIN CLOSED LOW SHOULD BE SLOW TO MOVE, AND THE
SECONDARY GREAT LAKES CLOSED LOW WILL PROBABLY BE ABSORBED INTO THE
MAIN CLOSED LOW TO OUR EAST. THIS ALL LEADS TO SOME UNSETTLED
WEATHER REMAINING ACROSS OUR AREA THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY, WHICH
INCLUDES EITHER RENEWED PRECIPITATION WITH THE INCOMING SECONDARY
SHORT WAVE/CLOSED LOW OR A COMBINATION OF THIS AND SOME WRAP AROUND
WITH THE MERGER OF THE TWO. THE THERMAL FIELDS MAY YIELD BOTH RAIN
AND SNOW AND THIS COULD BE DRIVEN BY PRECIPITATION INTENSITY AND
BOUNDARY LAYER TEMPERATURES. OVERALL THOUGH, THERE COULD BE A PERIOD
OF SNOW SLIDING SOUTHWARD ACROSS A GOOD PART OF THE CWA THURSDAY
NIGHT. GIVEN THE INCOMING STRONG COASTAL STORM DURING THE NEAR/SHORT
TERMS, WE DID NOT MAKE SIGNIFICANT CHANGES FROM FRIDAY AND BEYOND.
WE DID BLEND IN THE LATEST HPC GUIDANCE FROM ABOUT SATURDAY ONWARD
TO INTRODUCE SOME NEWER GUIDANCE INTO CONTINUITY.
OTHERWISE FOR THURSDAY, THE HEAVIEST PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED
TO BE ENDING ACROSS MUCH OF OUR CWA EARLY ON. HOWEVER, MODELS
CONTINUE TO SHOW THAT SOME MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE TO SWING BACK
ACROSS OUR AREA ON THE WESTERN SIDE OF THE LOW AS IT SLOWLY MOVES TO
THE EAST. THIS IS ALSO COURTESY OF ANOTHER PIECE OF ENERGY TENDING
TO MERGE INTO THE MAIN CLOSED LOW, WHICH CAUSES PRECIPITATION TO
ROTATE SOUTHWARD ACROSS THE AREA. THERE IS A DECENT CONSENSUS WITH
THIS, THEREFORE WE ADJUSTED THE POPS UPWARD INTO THE LOW LIKELY
RANGE THURSDAY NIGHT ACROSS THE FAR NORTHERN AREAS. THE POPS THEN
TAPER DOWNWARD WITH A SOUTHERN EXTENT. THIS MAY RESULT IN AN INCH OR
TWO OF SNOW ACROSS OUR NORTHERN AREAS. FOR FRIDAY, PRECIPITATION
CHCS SHOULD BE LOWERING AS THE COASTAL LOW AND ANY LINGERING WRAP
AROUND SHIFTS EAST OF OUR AREA, AND ENDS BY FRIDAY NIGHT.
THE STORM WILL FINALLY MOVE FARTHER OUT TO SEA SATURDAY, LOSING ITS
GRIP ON OUR AREA, FOLLOWED BY HIGH PRESSURE FOR SATURDAY NIGHT INTO
SUNDAY. LATE SUNDAY, LOW PRESSURE TRACKING TO OUR NORTH WILL TRY AND
TOSS A COLD FRONT TOWARD OUR AREA. THIS BOUNDARY MAY STALL FOR A
TIME BEFORE ACTUALLY SETTLING THROUGH OUR AREA AS ADDITIONAL ENERGY
MOVES UP THE OHIO VALLEY MONDAY. THIS SECOND SYSTEM AND ASSOCIATED
COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO AFFECT THE AREA LATE MONDAY AND MONDAY
NIGHT. THIS BRINGS OUR REGION THE NEXT CHC OF PRECIPITATION AS THE
LOW MOVES MAINLY TO OUR NORTH AND THE ASSOCIATED FRONTAL BOUNDARY
MOVES THROUGH. WITH THE CURRENT TRACK ALONG WITH MILDER AIR AHEAD OF
IT, MOST AREAS SHOULD BE RAIN.
&&
.AVIATION /16Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG,
KMIV, KACY AND SURROUNDING AREAS.
CONDS WILL DETERIORATE FROM S TO N AS THE MORNING PROGRESSES AND ALL
SITES WILL EVENTUALLY BE MVFR AND LATER IFR AS PRECIP MOVES IN. S
AND E OF I-95 PRECIP WILL GENLY BE RAIN DURG THE DAY, BEFORE
TRANSITIONING TO SOME SNOW TONIGHT. ALG I-95, IT WILL BE PRIMARILY
RAIN OR A MIX BEFORE CHANGING TO SNOW TONIGHT AND NA ND W WILL BE
PREDOMINANTLY SNOW. WIND WILL INCREASE THRU THE DAY AND INTO
TONIGHT WITH GUSTS TO 30 KTS INLAND AND N AND W AND CLOSER TO 35 KT
S AND E AND CLOSER TO THE CST. THE WIND WILL BE NELY TODAY AND
BECOME MORE NLY OR NWLY TONIGHT.
OUTLOOK...
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...PERIODS OF MVFR AS SNOW OR RAIN ENDS THURSDAY
MORNING. TIMES OF SUB-VFR MAY CONTINUE THROUGH FRIDAY AS SOME WRAP
AROUND MOISTURE COULD RESULT IN SOME RAIN OR SNOW. NORTH-NORTHWEST
WINDS 15-20 KNOTS WITH GUSTS TO 25-30 KNOTS.
SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...OVERALL VFR. NORTHERLY WINDS 10-15 KNOTS
SATURDAY, SHOULD BECOME LIGHT AT NIGHT, THEN SOUTHERLY 5-10 KNOTS
DURING SUNDAY.
&&
.MARINE...
MARINE FLAGS WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT UNCHANGED. GALE AND STORM
WARNINGS ARE UP AS THE AREA WILL BE IMPACTED BY A STORM MOVING BY TO
THE S. EXPECT A GUSTY NE WIND TO PICK UP THRU THE DAY BECOMING MORE
NW TONIGHT. THE ONLY CHANGE TO THE MARINE THIS MORNING WAS TO
INCREASE THE SEAS ALONG THE COASTAL WATERS AND DELAWARE BAY.
OUTLOOK...
GALE FORCE WINDS LOOK TO OCCUR THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY ON THE WEST SIDE
OF STRENGTHENING LOW PRESSURE. THIS LOW IS FORECAST TO GRADUALLY
SHIFT FARTHER AWAY FROM OUR AREA DURING THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. THE
WINDS ARE ANTICIPATED TO LOWER TO SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY LEVELS FRIDAY
AFTERNOON AND SATURDAY. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN SATURDAY INTO
SUNDAY, ALLOWING THE WINDS TO BECOME MUCH LIGHTER. THE SEAS HOWEVER
MAY REMAIN ELEVATED THROUGH SUNDAY, ESPECIALLY ON THE OCEAN.
&&
.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
AN EAST TO NORTHEAST FLOW WILL INTENSIFY TODAY AND SUBSEQUENTLY TAKE
ITS TIME DIMINISHING AND BACKING TO OFFSHORE. ALL OF THIS WILL BE
DUE TO LOW PRESSURE MOVING OFF THE COAST OF VIRGINIA EARLY THIS
AFTERNOON WHILE MODERATELY STRONG HIGH PRESSURES ARE CENTERED WELL
TO OUR NORTH AND WEST, WHICH MAINTAIN A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT
OVER OUR AREA.
THE LOWER HIGH TIDE OCCURS THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING.
HOWEVER, THE STRONG EASTERLY FLOW HAS CAUSED DEPARTURES AT LEWES
AND CAPE MAY TO RISE SUFFICIENTLY TO RESULT IN MODERATE TIDAL
FLOODING FOR SUSSEX AND CAPE MAY COUNTIES. WE HAVE THEREFORE
STARTED THEIR COASTAL FLOOD WARNING WITH THE UPCOMING HIGH TIDE.
ELSEWHERE, WE CONINUE WITH THE FORECAST THAT WIDESPREAD MINOR
FLOODING WITH SPOTTY MODERATE FLOODING IS THE MOST LIKELY OUTCOME
DURING THIS TIME FRAME.
WE ARE MORE CONCERNED WITH THE LATE TONIGHT/EARLY THURSDAY HIGH
TIDE, WHEN GUIDANCE PRETTY UNIFORMLY FORECASTS MODERATE TIDAL
FLOODING FOR RARITAN BAY AND ITS TIDAL TRIBUTARIES, THE ATLANTIC
COAST AND ADJACENT BACK BAYS INCLUDING BARNEGAT BAY, AND DELAWARE
BAY AND ITS TIDAL TRIBUTARIES /EXCEPT THE TIDAL DELAWARE RIVER/. A
FEW NUMBERS CAME OUT IN THE MAJOR RANGE. THEREFORE, THE COASTAL
FLOOD WARNING EXTENDS TO ALL THOSE AREAS FOR THE LATE TONIGHT/EARLY
THURSDAY HIGH TIDE. THE COASTAL FLOODING IS EXPECTED TO OCCUR
WITH STRONG WINDS AND ROUGH SEAS. SINCE AT LEAST PORTIONS OF THE
NEW JERSEY BEACHES ARE STILL COMPROMISED, THERE IS LESS PROTECTION
FROM THE INCOMING TIDAL SURGES.
WE ULTIMATELY MAY NEED TO ISSUE AT LEAST ADVISORIES FOR THE TIDAL
DELAWARE AND THE MARYLAND EASTERN SHORE, BUT WE DO NOT SEE ANY
INDICATIONS OF MODERATE OR WORSE TIDAL FLOODING THERE THROUGH
DAYBREAK THURSDAY. THESE BODIES OF WATER MOST ALWAYS ARE LATEST TO
RESPOND.
