Special Weather Statement, NWS Philadelphia/Mount Holly

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
339 AM EDT TUE AUG 13 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
WEAK LOW PRESSURE AND A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH AND MOVE ACROSS THE
AREA TODAY AND TONIGHT. LARGE HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE MIDWEST STATES
WILL THEN BUILD EASTWARD INTO THE MID ATLANTIC REGION WEDNESDAY
THROUGH FRIDAY. A WARM FRONT ALONG THE SOUTHEASTERN SEABOARD THIS
WEEKEND MAY EVENTUALLY DRIFT NORTHWARD BY EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
THE LATEST GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO POINT TOWARD A MODERATE TO HEAVY
RAINFALL EVENT FOR OUR REGION WITH WIDESPREAD 1 TO 2 INCH RAINFALL
AMOUNTS ESPECIALLY FROM THE INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR NORTHWESTWARD.
LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS UP TO 3 OR 4 INCHES SEEM LIKELY. THE GUIDANCE
IS KEYING IN ON THE PENNSYLVANIA COUNTIES OF CHESTER, MONTGOMERY,
BUCKS, NORTHAMPTON, LEHIGH AND BERKS FOR THE GREATEST PROBABILITY OF
RECEIVING THE HIGHER AMOUNTS. WE HAVE ISSUED A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR
OUR COUNTIES ALONG THE INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR AS WELL AS ALL OF OUR
COUNTIES TO THE NORTHWEST. IT IS IN EFFECT UNTIL 400 PM.

THE GUIDANCE IS ALSO FAIRLY SIMILAR IN KEEPING RAINFALL AMOUNTS TO
LESS THAN AN INCH TO THE SOUTHEAST OF THE INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR, SO
NO WATCH SEEMS NECESSARY FOR SOUTHEASTERN NEW JERSEY OR FOR OUR
DELMARVA COUNTIES SOUTH OF THE CANAL.

A MID LEVEL SHORT WAVE LOCATED OVER THE UPPER OHIO RIVER VALLEY AND
VICINITY AROUND 300 AM WILL PROGRESS EASTWARD AND IT SHOULD PASS
OVER OUR REGION BETWEEN ABOUT 800 AM AND 1100 AM. THE FEATURE HAS A
HISTORY OF PRODUCING EXCESSIVE RAINFALL. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES
WILL BE NEAR OR IN EXCESS OF TWO INCHES THIS MORNING IN MUCH OF OUR
REGION. THEREFORE, WE HAVE A FAIRLY ROBUST TRIGGER AND ABUNDANT
MOISTURE PRODUCING THE INGREDIENTS FOR HEAVY RAINFALL.

AT THE SURFACE, A WEAK AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WAS LOCATED OVER
NORTHERN VIRGINIA AROUND 300 AM. THE LOW SHOULD LIFT NORTHEASTWARD,
PASSING OVER OUR REGION DURING THE MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON. A
COLD FRONT IS FORECAST TO APPROACH FROM THE NORTHWEST LATE IN THE
DAY.

THE SKY WILL BE CLOUDY FOR TODAY WITH PERHAPS SOME BREAKS DEVELOPING
IN THE AFTERNOON. MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES SHOULD BE IN THE 70S IN OUR
NORTHWESTERN COUNTIES AND IN THE 80S ELSEWHERE. WIND DIRECTIONS WILL
BE VARIABLE DUE TO THE WEAK SURFACE LOW TRACKING THROUGH OUR REGION.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM WEDNESDAY/...
A COLD FRONT SHOULD PUSH THROUGH OUR NORTHWESTERN COUNTIES EARLY
THIS EVENING, REACHING THE INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR AROUND 900 PM OR
1000 PM, THEN PASSING OFF THE COAST AROUND MIDNIGHT. THERE MAY BE A
FEW LINGERING SHOWERS IN THE EVENING WITH THE FRONT FOLLOWED BY
DRYING FROM THE NORTHWEST. CLOUDS ARE EXPECTED TO BE ON THE DECREASE
WITH A NORTHWEST WIND. TEMPERATURES SHOULD FALL INTO THE 50S IN THE
NORTHWEST AND INTO THE 60S ELSEWHERE LATE TONIGHT.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
THE LONG TERM WILL BEGIN WITH A STRETCH OF DRY WEATHER AS SURFACE
HIGH PRESSURE ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES AND MIDWEST STATES GRADUALLY
SHIFTS EASTWARD THROUGH WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY INTO THE MID ATLANTIC
STATES, BEFORE EDGING OFFSHORE LATER FRIDAY. A MID-LEVEL TROUGH WILL
BE MOVING OVER THE REGION AS WELL DURING THE WEDNESDAY TO THURSDAY
TIMEFRAME. VERY PLEASANT WEATHER IS IN STORE THROUGH THIS STRETCH,
WITH AMPLE SUN, GENERALLY LIGHT WINDS, AND BELOW AVERAGE
TEMPERATURES FROM WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY. WEDNESDAY IS EXPECTED TO
BE THE COOLEST DAY AS THE 500MB TROUGH MOVES OVER OUR AREA, AND
MODEL 850/925MB TEMPS INDICATE THAT HIGH TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE
REGION MAY NOT GET OUT OF THE MIDDLE TO UPPER 70S, WITH PERHAPS
MAXIMUM READINGS IN THE UPPER 60S FOR THE HIGHER TERRAIN IN THE
SOUTHERN POCONOS. TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO GRADUALLY MODERATE,
THOUGH, GOING INTO THURSDAY AND FRIDAY AS THE TROUGH WEAKENS, WITH
DAYTIME MAX TEMPERATURES RETURNING BACK INTO THE LOWER 80S FOR MUCH
OF THE REGION BY FRIDAY.

OVER THE WEEKEND, WEAK SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO
INFLUENCE OUR REGION. MEANWHILE TO OUR SOUTH, BOTH THE GFS AND ECMWF
INDICATE A WARM FRONTAL BOUNDARY PRESENT ALONG THE COAST OF THE
SOUTHEAST STATES. AT THIS TIME, THERE IS FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT THAT
THIS BOUNDARY SHOULD REMAIN TO OUR SOUTH THROUGH THE WEEKEND, BUT
THE BOUNDARY IS EXPECTED TO EDGE NORTHWARD THROUGH THE LATTER PART
OF THE WEEKEND. SOME SHOWERS MAY DEVELOP NORTH OF THIS BOUNDARY
ACROSS OUR DELMARVA ZONES THROUGH THE COURSE OF SUNDAY. THEREAFTER,
WE HAVE KEPT CHANCE POPS IN THE FCST FROM SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH
MONDAY AS THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS PROGGED TO CONTINUE LIFTING
NORTHWARD. THERE ALSO LOOKS TO BE SUFFICIENT INSTABILITY ACROSS THE
REGION FOR THUNDER DURING MONDAY. PWATS ARE ALSO FORECAST TO
STEADILY INCREASE ACROSS THE REGION FROM SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY,
ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HALF OF OUR FORECAST AREA. HIGHEST
POPS WILL BE KEPT FROM THE LOWER DELAWARE VALLEY AND SOUTHERN NJ
INTO THE DELMARVA.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG,
KMIV, KACY AND SURROUNDING AREAS.

AT 0700Z, THERE WERE HIGH CLOUDS OVERHEAD. CONDITIONS WERE VFR AT
KRDG, KABE, KPNE, KILG AND KACY. THERE WERE MVFR VISIBILITY
RESTRICTIONS AT KTTN, KPHL AND KMIV. CONDITIONS WILL DETERIORATE
QUICKLY AROUND DAYBREAK AS SHOWERS AND SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS MOVE
INTO OUR REGION FROM THE WEST. THE RAIN WILL BECOME MODERATE TO
HEAVY AT TIMES AND IFR CONDITIONS ARE LIKELY. THE MODERATE TO HEAVY
RAIN SHOULD MOVE TO THE EAST AND NORTHEAST OF OUR REGION THIS
AFTERNOON WITH SOME IMPROVEMENT ANTICIPATED AT THAT TIME. DRY AIR IS
EXPECTED TO BUILD INTO OUR REGION FROM THE NORTHWEST TONIGHT.

THE WIND SHOULD BE LIGHT THIS MORNING AND IT WILL FAVOR THE SOUTH
AND SOUTHEAST IF ANY DIRECTION AT ALL. THE WIND IS EXPECTED TO
SETTLE INTO THE WEST AT 5 TO 10 KNOTS THIS AFTERNOON THEN IT SHOULD
BECOME NORTHWEST FOR TONIGHT.

OUTLOOK...
WEDNESDAY...VFR CONDITIONS WITH NORTHWEST WINDS, GUSTING 15 TO 20
KNOTS.

THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS WITH GENERALLY
LIGHT WINDS AND AFTN SEA BREEZES AT THE COAST.

&&

.MARINE...
WEAK LOW PRESSURE FROM THE SOUTHWEST IS FORECAST TO PASS OVER OUR
REGION TODAY. A COLD FRONT FROM THE NORTHWEST IS EXPECTED TO ARRIVE
TONIGHT. WIND SPEEDS AND WAVE HEIGHTS WILL LIKELY REMAIN BELOW THE
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CRITERIA FOR TODAY AND TONIGHT.

OUTLOOK...
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING OVER THE REGION AND OUR ADJACENT COASTAL
WATERS WILL LEAD TO SUB-ADVISORY CONDITIONS ON OUR WATERS WEDNESDAY
THROUGH SATURDAY. NORTHWEST WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO BE A BIT GUSTY ON
WEDNESDAY, GUSTING AROUND 20 KNOTS, BUT WE DO NOT EXPECT NEEDING A
SCA AT THIS TIME. SEAS ARE EXPECTED TO BE MOSTLY AT 2 TO 3 FEET OR
LESS THROUGH SATURDAY.
