AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
344 PM EDT TUE AUG 13 2013
.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE HAS MOVED EAST OF THE NEW JERSEY COAST. LARGE HIGH PRESSURE
OVER THE MIDWEST WILL SLIDE EASTWARD INTO THE MID ATLANTIC REGION WEDNESDAY
THROUGH FRIDAY. A WARM FRONT ALONG THE SOUTHEASTERN SEABOARD THIS WEEKEND
MAY EVENTUALLY DRIFT CLOSE ENOUGH TO SPREAD SOME RAIN ONTO THE DELMARVA
AND NEW JERSEY LATER THIS WEEKEND. THAT FRONT MAY DISSIPATE EARLY NEXT
WEEK LEAVING WEAK HIGH PRESSURE SPRAWLED OVER OUR AREA.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
A COLD FRONT IS PROGRESSING THROUGH CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA LATE THIS
AFTERNOON AND SHOULD BE CROSSING OUR AREA LATER THIS EVENING INTO
TONIGHT. A WEAK SHORT WAVE/VORTICITY IMPULSE AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL
ALLOW A FEW SCATTERED SHOWERS TO DEVELOP AHEAD OF THE FRONT, AND
ADDITIONAL SHOWERS MAY FORM RIGHT ALONG THE BOUNDARY. MODEL GUIDANCE
KEEPS THE PRECIP AFTER SUNSET FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS, THEN DRIES IT
OUT AS THE FRONT MOVES OFFSHORE. OVERALL, AFTER THE FRONT MOVES
THROUGH, SHOULD BE A NICE NIGHT.
TEMPERATURES TONIGHT WERE A BLEND OF MAV/MET MOS AND WILL BE SEVERAL
DEGREES COOLER THAN LAST NIGHT.
WE CONTINUE TO ASSESS DAMAGE THAT OCCURRED EARLIER THIS MORNING IN
CECIL COUNTY, MD AND OCEAN COUNTY, NJ. A FINAL DETERMINATION IS
EXPECTED TO BE MADE BY MIDDAY WEDNESDAY. THE REST OF THE DAMAGE
ACROSS THE AREA WAS DETERMINED TO BE STRAIGHT LINE WINDS.
PLEASE SEND ANY IMAGERY OF DAMAGE OR TORNADOES (FOR THIS MORNINGS
EVENT) TO THE NWS VIA NORMAL COMMUNICATIONS CHANNELS OR FACEBOOK.
THE LSRPHI POSTED HAS THE LISTING OF EVENTS INCLUDING THE TIMING.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM WEDNESDAY/...
WEDNESDAY IS EXPECTED TO BE A NICE DAY AS A BREEZY NORTHWEST WIND
CONTINUES ACROSS THE AREA. TEMPERATURES WILL BE SEVERAL DEGREES
BELOW NORMAL, AND DEWPOINTS WILL BE MARKEDLY LOWER THAN THE LAST 24
HOURS. NO PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED ON WEDNESDAY, WITH PARTLY CLOUDY
SKIES ANTICIPATED. WINDS WILL BE QUITE BREEZY WITH GUSTS REACHING
20-25 MPH.
&&
.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
KEEPING THIS SECTION BRIEFER THAN USUAL DUE TO POST SVR/FFW EFFORTS...
LITTLE CHANGE IN PHILOSOPHY FROM YESTERDAY.
500 MB: THE NE USA AND SE CANADA TROUGH WEAKENS WITH TIME AS A NEW
TROUGH FORMS IN THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.
THIS ENCOURAGES WARM WESTERN ATLC RIDGING TO SHIFT WEST TO THE SE
USA COAST EARLY NEXT WEEK.
TEMPERATURES: THE FIRST 12 DAYS ARE AVERAGING 1 TO 4 DEGREES BELOW
NORMAL (SOUTH TO NORTH) AND THIS AUGUSTS BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURE
PATTERN WILL BE ACCENTUATED THURSDAY AND FRIDAY WITH CALENDAR DAY
AVERAGES 5 TO 9 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL. THEREAFTER.... A SLOW WARMING
TREND DEVELOPS WITH DAILY AVERAGE TEMPERATURES PROBABLY FINALLY
RISING ABOVE NORMAL AGAIN NEXT TUESDAY.
THE DAILIES BELOW...
THIS LONG TERM FCST WAS CONSTRUCTED WITH A 50 50 BLEND OF 12Z/13
GFS/NAM MOS ELEMENTS WED NIGHT-THU NIGHT...12Z/13 GFS MEXMOS
BLENDED WITH THE PREVIOUS 08Z/13 MOUNT HOLLY OFFICIAL FCST AND
THEREAFTER..THE 1522Z WPC DAY 4-8 GUIDANCE BLENDED 50 50 WITH THE
NEW 12Z/13 GFS MEX MOS.
WED NIGHT-FRIDAY...GORGEOUSLY COOL MID SUMMER WEATHER PER HIGH PRESSURE
OVERSPREADING THE AREA. COASTAL SEA BREEZES EACH AFTERNOON. PLENTY OF
SUNSHINE DURING THE DAY AND MOSTLY CLEAR NIGHTS. CIRRUS FROM THE
MISSISSIPPI TROUGH AND SURFACE WARM FRONT ALONG THE SE USA COAST
SHOULD BECOME EVIDENT FRIDAY AFTERNOON AS IT PULSES-SPREADS NEWD
OVER OUR AREA. CONFIDENCE: HIGH.
SATURDAY-MONDAY...VARIABLE CLOUD COVER...MOSTLY MID AND HIGH. THE
THREAT OF SHOWERS SPREADING NWD ONTO THE DELMARVA AND NJ COAST...
ESPECIALLY SAT NIGHT OR SUNDAY. A PERSISTENT EASTERLY FLOW DEVELOPS
AND IT MAY BECOME GUSTY TO 25 MPH OVER DE ON SUNDAY (THE ECMWF IS
18 HOURS FASTER BUT FOR NOW THIS IS A 12Z/13 GEFS FCST).
CONFIDENCE ON THE SCENARIO IS AVG...BUT BELOW AVG ON DETAILS.
TUESDAY...UNCERTAINTY BUT FOR NOW...WARMER WITH LIGHT WIND AND P/C
SKIES. CONFIDENCE ON DETAILS: WELL BELOW AVG. THERE MIGHT BE MORE
SKYCOVER THAN ADVERTISED AND MAYBE SOME SHOWERS BUT FOR NOW THE
OPTIMISTIC DETERMINISTIC FCST HAS BEEN ISSUED.
&&
.AVIATION /20Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG,
KMIV, KACY AND SURROUNDING AREAS.
CONDITIONS CONTINUE TO IMPROVE THIS AFTERNOON NOW THAT WINDS ARE
BECOMING MORE WEST-NORTHWEST AND BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS HAVE ALLOWED
THE SUN TO HEAT UP THE LOW LEVELS. NOW THAT CONDITIONS ARE VFR
ACROSS THE TAF SITES, THEY ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN SO THROUGH
TONIGHT. A FEW SHOWERS MAY OCCUR JUST AHEAD OF AND ALONG THE FRONTAL
BOUNDARY, BUT WE ARE NOT EXPECTING WIDESPREAD RESTRICTIONS WITH THE
SHOWERS. WE WILL NEED TO KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF
LOCALIZED FOG DEVELOPMENT OVERNIGHT WHERE THE HEAVY RAINFALL FELL
EARLIER THIS MORNING. NO GUIDANCE IS INDICATING THIS POSSIBILITY, SO
WE WILL NOT PUT THIS IN THE TAF AT THIS TIME.
WINDS ARE NOW BECOMING MORE WEST-NORTHWEST AND WILL CONTINUE OUT OF
THIS DIRECTION THROUGH WEDNESDAY. WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO GUST AROUND
15-20 KNOTS, STARTING FROM AROUND 09Z TONIGHT AND SHOULD CONTINUE
INTO WEDNESDAY.
OUTLOOK...
WEDNESDAY NIGHT...VFR MOSTLY CLEAR WITH GUSTY NW WIND TO 15 KT
POSSIBLE IN THE EVENING THEN LIGHT NW WINDS OVERNIGHT.
CONFIDENCE: HIGH.
THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...VFR MOSTLY CLEAR WITH LIGHT WINDS
INCLUDING COASTAL S-SE SEA BREEZES EACH AFTERNOON. CONFIDENCE:
HIGH.
THIS WEEKEND...VFR CIGS DEVELOPING AND A CHANCE OF SHOWERS VCNTY
KACY-KMIV SAT NIGHT OR SUNDAY. CONDS MAY LOWER TO MVFR SUNDAY
NIGHT? CONFIDENCE IN THE OVERALL SCENARIO: AVERAGE.
&&
.MARINE...
A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR OUR COASTAL WATERS AND
DELAWARE BAY AS WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO GUST AROUND 25-30 KNOTS BEHIND
THE PASSING COLD FRONT LATE TONIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING.
THIS SURGE OF STRONGER WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO BEGIN DIMINISHING BY
LATE MORNING, SO WE WILL NOT CONTINUE IT INTO THE AFTERNOON AT THIS
TIME.
SUB-ADVISORY LEVEL WINDS WILL RETURN FOR WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON INTO
WEDNESDAY NIGHT.
OUTLOOK...
WED NIGHT-SUNDAY...NO SCA EXPECTED. GUSTY NW-N WINDS DIMINISH WED
NIGHT AND THEN S-SE SEABREEZES EXPECTED THU AND FRI AFTERNOON WITH
A MORE PERSISTENT ELY WIND OVER THE WEEKEND...POSSIBLY BUILDING
SEAS TO 4 FT BY SUNDAY WHEN E WINDS WILL GUST 20 KT.
&&
.RIP CURRENTS...
GFS WW3 GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO BE TOO ROBUST AND THE TROPICAL ATLC
BASIN IS STILL QUIET...SO THE RISK OF RIP CURRENTS REMAINS GENERALLY
LOW FROM NOW THROUGH AT LEAST SATURDAY AND POSSIBLY THROUGH EARLY
NEXT WEEK.
THE FLY IN THE OINTMENT IS FOR THIS SUNDAY AND MONDAY AND AMT OF
EASTERLY WIND AS WELL AS HOW MUCH ELY SWELL DEVELOPS N OF THE WARM
