AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE STATE COLLEGE PA
150 AM EDT WED MAR 12 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A STRONG LATE-WINTER STORM WILL IMPACT THE AREA ON
WEDNESDAY...FOLLOWED BY COLD AND BLUSTERY CONDITIONS WITH WELL-
BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES FOR THURSDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL REBOUND
TO NEAR SEASONAL LEVELS FRIDAY INTO THE WEEKEND...AHEAD OF A
FRONTAL SYSTEM PUSHING SOUTHEAST FROM THE GREAT LAKES. THIS FRONT
MAY PRODUCE SOME RAIN OR SNOW SHOWERS ON SATURDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THIS MORNING/...
IT CONTINUES VERY MILD WITH THE FIRST SIGNS OF LIGHT RAIN STARTING
TO SHOW UP OVER FAR NRN PA AND SRN NY. ONLY MADE SOME MINOR
TWEAKS TO THE NEAR TERM TEMPERATURES AND BACKED OFF THE POPS A BIT
TO FIT LATEST RADAR AND OBSERVATION TRENDS.

OVERNIGHT TEMPS WILL DIP DOWN NEAR FREEZING ALONG THE PA/NY
BORDER...AND REMAIN IN THE 40S ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HALF OF CWA.

CLOUDS WILL CONTINUE TO THICKEN AND LOWER TONIGHT. SUB-TROPICAL
HIGH CENTERED EAST OF THE BAHAMAS WILL SUPPLY THE GOOD SRLY FLOW
AND REAL GOMEX MOISTURE TO A STRONG SYSTEM CURRENTLY DROPPING SE
FROM THE HIGH PLAINS INTO MO. THE SUB-1000MB LOW WILL DEEPEN EVEN
FURTHER AS IT ROLLS EASTWARD ALONG THE WEAK BOUNDARY OVER THE OH
VALLEY AND NRN MID- ATLANTIC STATES. THE LOW IS PROGGED BY ALL
MDLS TO CROSS THE SRN TIER OF PA WED - AT 12Z IT SHOULD BE
ENTERING FAR SWRN PA...AND WILL DEEPEN TO A 980MB LOW BY THE TIME
IT SCOOTS EAST OF KABE WED EVENING.

LIGHT PRECIPITATION WILL INITIALLY SLIDE INTO THE NW TONIGHT
/AROUND 06Z/...WITH 850MB TEMPS ABOVE ZERO IT WILL FALL AS
RAIN.. FIRST WAVE OF MODERATE PRECIP SHOULD BE APPROACHING CWA
WESTERN EDGE BY 12Z.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/...
SUB-1000MB LOW WILL CONTINUE TO DEEPEN AS IT ROLLS EASTWARD ALONG
WEAK BOUNDARY OVER THE OH VALLEY AND NRN MID-ATLANTIC STATES. THE
LOW IS PROGGED BY ALL MDLS TO CROSS THE SRN TIER OF PA WED - AT
12Z IT SHOULD BE ENTERING FAR SWRN PA...AND WILL DEEPEN TO A 980MB
LOW BY THE TIME IT SCOOTS EAST OF KABE WED EVENING. VERY STRONG
AND NEAR- TEXTBOOK KISSING JET COUPLET WILL ENHANCE THE LIFT AND
FRONTOGENESIS AS IT MOVES THROUGH THE STATE. THE WARM AIR TO THE
SOUTH /HIGHS SHOULD SLIP INTO THE 60S IN THE LOWER SUSQ/ AND THE
ALREADY- ANOMALOUSLY WARM TEMPS WILL KEEP THE PRECIP RAIN OVER ALL
BUT THE FAR NRN TIER THROUGH AT LEAST MID AFTERNOON WED. EVEN THE
FAR NRN TIER WILL PROBABLY HAVE TROUBLE ACCUMULATING EARLY ON WHAT
DOES FALL AS SNOW...DUE TO THE MID- MARCH SUN AND MARGINAL TEMP
PROFILE. BUT EVENTUALLY PRECIP INTENSITY WILL WIN OUT. LIGHT EAST
WIND COULD KEEP TEMPS NEAR FREEZING IN THE NRN MTS WED
MORNING...SO ISOLATED POCKETS OF FREEZING RAIN MAY EXIST IN THE
NRN TIER WED...ESP FOR A BRIEF PERIOD AS COLDER AIR QUICKLY DIVES
SOUTHWARD. AS THE LOW DEEPENS AND PASSES TO THE EAST...THE WINDS
WILL GO NORTHERLY AND INCREASE QUITE RAPIDLY. SUSTAINED SPEEDS IN
THE 20S AND GUSTS NEAR 40 MPH ARE EXPECTED AS STRONG CAA DROPS
TEMPS INTO THE 20S IN THE N VERY QUICKLY WED AFTN...INTO CENTRAL
SECTIONS BETWEEN 21-00Z AND BY 03Z IN THE SE.

QPF IN THE 0.75-1.25 INCH RANGE ACROSS MUCH OF THE NORTH IS MOST
LIKELY GOING TO BE MOSTLY RAIN...BUT THE STRONG COLD ADVECTION AND
COUPLED JET IN THE AFTERNOON WILL BRING MESOSCALE SNOW BAND/S AND
TEMPS WILL THEN BE CONDUCIVE TO ALLOW ACCUMULATION. THUS...THE
ACCUMULATIONS COULD REACH 6 INCHES OR MORE ALONG THE NRN TIER BY
LATE WED NIGHT...WITH COLDER AIR SPILLING FURTHER SOUTH LATE
AFTERNOON/EARLY EVE PRODUCING MINOR ACCUMS IN THE MTNS. THE COLD
WINDS WILL HELP MINS INTO THE LOWEST SINGLE DIGITS IN THE N. THIS
WILL ALSO LEAD TO LOW WIND CHILLS. HAVE TRANSITIONED WINTER
WEATHER WATCH OVER TO A WARNING FOR NW COUNTIES WITH AN ADVISORY
FOR THE REMAINDER OF NORTHERN TIER EXTENDING DOWN ACROSS THE
LAUREL HIGHLANDS.

MAIN THREAT IN THE SOUTH AS LOW TRACKS ACROSS PA WILL BE POTENTIAL
FOR CONVECTION. SPC PLACES SOUTHERN PA IN SLIGHT RISK...AND WITH
STRONG DYNAMICS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM...MENTIONED THREAT IN
HWO.

ON THE BACK END OF THE STORM...QUITE COLD AIR /AS COLD AS -20C AT
850MB/ GETS DRIVEN INTO THE REGION ON A STRONG GUSTY NW WIND LATER
WED NIGHT INTO THU...WITH BY FAR THE COLDEST DAY OF THE WEEK IN
STORE FOR THURSDAY. WIND CHILLS SHOULD REACH NEAR ADVISORY
CRITERIA OVER THE NRN MTNS AND LAUREL HIGHLANDS...RANGE FROM 0 TO
-10F OVER THE CENTRAL RIDGE/VALLEY REGION AND DIP TO AROUND ZERO
IN THE LWR SUSQ VLY.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
THURSDAY MORNING WILL BE BRUTALLY COLD AND QUITE WINDY ON THE
BACKSIDE OF THE DEPARTING STORM SYSTEM...WITH 25-40 MPH NNW WIND
GUSTS SUPPORTING WIND CHILL VALUES AS LOW AS -20F IN THE
NORTH/WEST MTNS AND NEAR ZERO IN THE SE ZONES. LINGERING SNOW
SHOWERS ACRS N-CNTRL PA AND THE SWRN POCONOS/ENDLESS MTNS SHOULD
TAPER OFF BY MIDDAY...WITH LITTLE TO NO ADDNL ACCUMULATION EXPECTED.

GUSTY WINDS WILL GRADUALLY SUBSIDE DURING THE DAY THURS WITH
DAYTIME HIGHS 25-30F BELOW NORMAL. THIS IS VERY IMPRESSIVE FOR EARLY
MARCH WITH DAILY RECORD LOW-MAXES IN JEOPARDY IN SEVERAL LOCATIONS.
IN ADDITION...LOW TEMPS THURS MORNING ACRS WRN PA WILL ALSO BE NEAR
DAILY RECORD. SUFFICE IT TO SAY...IT MAY NOT BE THIS COLD AGAIN
(ESPECIALLY DURING THE DAYLIGHT HOURS) UNTIL NEXT WINTER.

THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT THE COLD BLAST WILL BE SHORT-LIVED...WITH A
RAPID MODERATION OCCURRING ON FRIDAY. BREEZY SW RETURN FLOW IN
ADVANCE OF NRN CLIPPER SFC LOW TRACKING ACRS THE UPPER GREAT LAKES
AND DOWNSLOPING SHOULD HELP TO BOOST TEMPS INTO THE 40S NORTH AND
50S SOUTH. THE MODELS TURN THE LOW TO THE NORTHEAST UP THE ST.
LAWRENCE VLY ON DAY 5/SAT...DRAGGING A TRAILING/WEAK COLD FRONT
ACRS THE NORTHEAST AND MID-ATL STATES. MODEL CONSENSUS INDICATES
SOME LGT PCPN IS POSSIBLE WITH CHC POPS AS THE FRONT SHIFTS SEWD
ACRS THE CWA.

GEFS/EC ENSEMBLE MEANS SHOW THE LARGE SCALE PATTERN REVERTING BACK
TO A WRN RIDGE/ERN TROUGH CONFIGURATION INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. THIS
HAS BEEN THE FAVORED/PREVAILING FLOW REGIME THIS WINTER...WITH A
COLD POLAR VORTEX OVER EASTERN CANADA. A STRONG SFC HIGH PUSHING
SEWD FROM THE UPPER MS VLY SHOULD DIRECT COLDER AIR INTO THE REGION
BEHIND A REINFORCING FROPA ON SUNDAY...WITH TEMPS LKLY TRENDING
LOWER BY DAY 7/MON. THE NON-NCEP OPRNL MODELS /12Z CMC AND ECMWF/
ARE MORE BULLISH ON CYCLOGENESIS INVOF THE GULF STREAM JUST EAST
OF THE CAROLINAS...WITH THE NW EDGE OF POTNL PCPN SHIELD POSSIBLY
REACHING SRN/SERN PA ON ST. PATRICK'S DAY. CONFIDENCE IS LOW GIVEN
THE LARGE SPREAD BTWN THE GFS AND ECMWF/CMC. SOMETHING TO MONITOR
IN THE DAYS TO COME.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS NOTED BELOW...VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL FOR A WHILE
LONGER...MAIN AREA OF RAIN NORTH PA BORDER.

06Z TAFS SENT.

EARLIER DISCUSSION BELOW.

VFR CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF THE
OVERNIGHT PERIOD.

SAT SHOWS LOW TO MID CLOUDS STREAMING THROUGH WITH CEILINGS AT
MOST TAF SITES. THESE WILL SLOWLY LOWER AS THE NIGHT CONTINUES AND
RESTRICTIONS WILL ARRIVE AS LIGHT RAIN /AND POSS SNOW NORTH/
AROUND 06Z IN THE NW...AND HEAVIER AREA OF PRECIP ARRIVING STARTING
AROUND 12Z WED. BULK OF HEAVIER PRECIPITATION WILL BE BETWEEN LATE
WED MORNING AND EARLY WEDNESDAY EVENING.

WIDESPREAD ADVERSE CONDITIONS ON WED...WITH RAIN ACROSS MUCH OF
THE AREA...SNOW ACROSS THE FAR NORTH...AND SOME RISK OF STRONG
TSTMS NEAR THE MD BORDER. BY AFTERNOON...STRONG WIND FIELDS WILL
