AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE STATE COLLEGE PA
307 PM EDT TUE JUL 1 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL PUSH INTO CENTRAL PA TONIGHT...THEN STALL OVER
THE REGION THROUGH THURSDAY. A SECONDARY COLD FRONT WILL SWEEP OUT
THE HIGH HUMIDITY AS IT CROSSES THE REGION THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. HIGH PRESSURE WITH COOLER AND LESS HUMID CONDITIONS WILL
BUILD INTO THE STATE JUST IN TIME FOR THE BEGINNING OF THE LONG
HOLIDAY WEEKEND. A TROPICAL DISTURBANCE IS EXPECTED TO TRACK ALONG
THE MID ATLANTIC COAST...BUT SHOULD VEER JUST OFFSHORE FRIDAY AND
SATURDAY...WITH CURRENT PROJECTIONS SPARING CENTRAL PA FROM ANY
SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
A HOT AND HUMID AFTERNOON THROUGHOUT CENTRAL PA. MID LEVEL WARMTH
HAS KEPT A LID ON CONVECTION THUS FAR...BUT A NARROW RIBBON OF
INSTABILITY ASSOCIATED WITH THE BOUNDARY LAYER THERMAL RIDGE IS
PUSHING ACROSS THE CENTRAL MOUNTAINS PRESENTLY...WITH RADAR TRENDS
SHOWING SPROUTING CELLS JUST EAST OF THE ALLEGHENY CREST. FARTHER
WEST...OVER EXTREME NORTHWEST PA...THE LARGEST CELL OF THE DAY
CONTINUES TO BUILD OVER CRAWFORD COUNTY...AND THIS AREA IS NOW
WEST OF THE BOUNDARY LAYER THERMAL FEATURE (AND MID LEVEL WARM
RIBBON)...SO EXPECT THIS ACTIVITY TO BE MAINTAINED AND EXPAND AS
THE LATE AFTERNOON WEARS ON.

AS THE WARMTH ALOFT HINDERS INITIATION OVER EASTERN PORTIONS OF
FORECAST AREA THIS AFTERNOON...HAVE LOWERED POPS THERE FROM
EARLIER VALUES...BUT STILL EXPECT ISOLATED TO SCATTERED ACTIVITY
LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS THE THERMAL AXIS PASSES.
MUCAPES ARE STILL IMPRESSIVE DESPITE LESS THAN IMPRESSIVE SHEAR
PROFILES...SO WE'LL KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON THEIR EVOLUTION.

THE INITIAL FRONT SLOWS TONIGHT ACROSS CENTRAL PA IN THE
INCREASINGLY PARALLEL SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT. A FAIR AMOUNT OF
CLOUDS AND JUST LINGERING 30 POPS FOR SHOWERS AND ISOLATED TSRA
WILL HELP TO CREATE ANOTHER MUGGY NIGHT ACROSS THE STATE WITH MINS
VARYING FROM THE MID 60S IN THE NW...TO THE LOWER AND MID 70S
THROUGHOUT THE SUSQ VALLEY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM WEDNESDAY/...
NOT A LOT OF CHANGE TO WED. DID UP MAX TEMPS A DEGREE. STILL
JUST GETTING A HEAT INDEX OF 100 OR JUST ABOVE ACROSS THE SE.

HELD OFF ON A HEAT ADVISORY FOR NOW...GIVEN IT IS STILL A WAYS
OUT AND STORM CONCERN FOR TODAY AND WED. HAVE MENTION OF HEAT
IN HWO.

APPROACH OF A SECONDARY COLD FRONT...AND POTENT SHORTWAVE DIGGING
SE INTO THE TROUGH OVER THE OHIO VALLEY WILL HELP TO AMPLIFY IT
AND BRING US ANOTHER FEW...TO SVRL BANDS OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ON WED. HARD TO PICK ON ONE AREA VS. ANOTHER AREA.
DID UP POPS ACROSS THE N AND W.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
MED RANGE MDLS ALL SHOWING A DEEPENING UPPER LVL TROF OVR THE
MIDWEST DURING THE MIDWEEK PERIOD...RESULTING IN COLD FRONT
STALLING OUT ACROSS CENTRAL PA. THUS...THE CHC OF SHRA/TSRA WILL
REMAIN IN THE FCST INTO THU NIGHT.

BASED ON THE ABOVE INFO. AND TROPICAL SYSTEM LIFTING NE...LEFT
SOME SHOWERS IN EASTERN AREAS FOR FRIDAY. LATER SHIFTS CAN CUT
BACK AS NEEDED.

DESPITE MINOR TIMING DIFFS...MED RANGE GUIDANCE STILL CONSISTENT
IN PUSHING COLD FRONT EAST OF THE REGION LATER FRIDAY WITH HIGH
PRES DELIVERING COOL AND DRY WEATHER IN TIME FOR THE BEGINNING OF
THE 4TH OF JULY WEEKEND.

WENT WITH A DRY FCST FOR NEXT MONDAY AND TUE. SOME SPREAD IN
DIFFERENT MODELS AND MODEL RUNS.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
A COLD FRONT WILL PUSH INTO CENTRAL PA TONIGHT...THEN STALL OVER
THE REGION THROUGH THURSDAY.

CLOUDS WILL BUILD AS THE DAY WEARS ON. SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
SHOWERS/TSTMS WILL DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS MAINLY THE NW
HALF OF CWA...WITH POTENTIAL SHORT-LIVED IMPACTS AT WESTERN TAF
SITES THAT COULD INCLUDE GUSTY WINDS...LIGHTNING...AND HEAVY RAIN
RESTRICTING VSBYS. PINPOINTING EXACT IMPACTS 8HRS OUT TRICKY...SO
BRACKETED LATE AFT WITH VCTS POTENTIAL AND WILL CONTINUE TO REFINE
TAFS AS CONVECTION EVOLVES AND BEGINS TO TAKE AIM ON TERMINALS.
ISO CONVECTION POSS IN THE EAST FROM KIPT-KMDT- KLNS...SO THESE
TERMINALS SHOULD REMAIN VFR THE VAST MAJORITY IF NOT ALL OF THE
DAY. WINDS ACROSS THE REGION WILL INCREASE FROM THE SOUTH TO 10
KTS GUSTING TO 15 KTS...LOCALLY HIGHER IN ANY TSTMS.

CONVECTION MAY LINGER INTO THIS EVE...BUT IMPACTS AND AERIAL
COVERAGE WILL BE DIMINISHING THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS. MVFR VSBYS
MAY DEVELOP LATE TONIGHT IN FOG/HAZE WITH MUGGY AIRMASS REMAINING
IN PLACE.
