AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
620 AM EDT FRI JUL 4 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
HURRICANE ARTHUR WILL MOVE OFF THE MIDDLE ATLANTIC COAST TODAY AND
THEN MOVE UP TOWARDS THE NEW ENGLAND WATERS TONIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE
WILL MOVE FROM THE OHIO VALLEY TONIGHT...TO OUR AREA SATURDAY NIGHT.
THE HIGH WILL MOVE TO THE EAST SUNDAY AND MONDAY. IT WILL BE
FOLLOWED BY A COLD FRONT AND DEVELOPING LOW PRESSURE FOR THE MIDDLE
OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN CANCELLED FOR ERN PA...NWRN NJ AND
CECIL COUNTY IN MD. SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE TO STREAM NORTHWARD
INTO THESE AREAS BUT RAINFALL RATES WILL BE GENERALLY LIGHT AND
THUS NOT SUPPORTIVE OF FLASH FLOODING.

THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH CONTINUES FOR CENTRAL/SRN NJ AND THE
DELMARVA. LATEST RADAR TRENDS SHOWS A LINE OF HEAVY RAIN
FORMING OVER THE SRN DELMARVA AND OFF THE NJ COAST AS THE OUTER
BANDS OF ARTHUR INTERACT WITH THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY. EXPECT THIS
BAND TO PROGRESS NWD ACROSS THE DELMARVA AND SRN NJ. RAINFALL
RATES OF 1-2 INCHES PER HR WILL BE POSSIBLE UNDER THIS BAND. IT
WON'T TAKE MUCH ADDITIONAL RAINFALL TO PRODUCE FLASH FLOODING WITH
THE GROUND ALREADY SATURATED ACROSS MANY LOCATIONS (DUAL-POL RADAR
ESTIMATES FROM KDOX INDICATED A SWATH OF 3-7 INCHES OF RAIN HAD
FALLEN LAST NIGHT IN SRN PORTIONS OF TALBOT AND CAROLINE COUNTIES).

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
HURRICANE ARTHUR IS LOCATED NEAR CAPE HATTERAS AS OF 3 AM WITH A MIN
SLP OF 973 MB. THE TRACK OF THIS SYSTEM IS BECOMING INFLUENCED BY
THE UPPER TROUGH OVER GREAT LAKES AND HAS STARTED ITS TURN TO THE
NORTHEAST AND HAS ACCELERATED IN SPEED. THE OFFICIAL NHC TRACK TAKES
ARTHUR FAR ENOUGH OFF THE DELMARVA AND NJ COAST TO SPARE DIRECT
WIND/STORM SURGE IMPACTS FROM THE HURRICANE.

THE HURRICANE WILL CONTINUE TO INTERACT WITH THE MID-LATITUDE TROUGH
AS WELL AS THE SFC FRONTAL BOUNDARY THAT IS STALLED OVER EASTERN
PA...RESULTING IN A CONTINUATION OF SHOWERS THIS MRNG. CYCLONIC FLOW
ON NWRN PERIPHERY OF THE SYSTEM WILL ENHANCE CONVERGENCE WITHIN THE
BAROCLINIC ZONE AS IT MOVES NEWD THIS MRNG. AS A RESULT...EXPECT AN
INCREASE IN SHOWERS ACROSS THE DELMARVA AND NEAR THE NJ COAST THIS
MRNG. THE HRRR AND SPC WRF IS PICKING UP ON THIS FAIRLY WELL.
ACCORDINGLY, THERE IS STILL A HEIGHTENED CONCERN FOR ANOTHER ROUND
OF HEAVY RAINFALL IN THESE AREAS. WHILE THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH IS
STILL IN EFFECT FOR MOST OF THE CWA THIS MRNG (AND FOR THE
DELMARVA/SRN NJ THRU THE AFTN), THE THREAT OF FLASH FLOODING IS
DIMINISHING ACROSS THE NORTHWESTERN PART OF THE CWA AS THE
INSTABILITY REQUIRED FOR HEAVIER RAINFALL RATES WANES. WILL LIKELY
BE ABLE TO TRIM BACK THESE N/W PORTIONS OF THE WATCH LATER THIS
MRNG.

NW FLOW AROUND THE HURRICANE WILL ALLOW THE COLD FRONT TO FINALLY
MOVE THRU THE AREA LATE THIS MRNG AND AFTN. DRIER AIR ADVECTING
INTO THE AREA BEHIND THE FRONT WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY CLEARING FROM
WEST TO EAST THIS AFTN. MAX TEMPS GENERALLY IN THE 70S ACROSS THE
CWA BUT DID FCST LOW 80S FOR THE DELMARVA AND PHILLY METRO WHERE
CLEARING SKIES WILL ALLOW FOR TEMPS TO REBOUND LATER IN THE AFTN. NW
WINDS WILL BE GUSTY DURING THE AFTN AS THE HURRICANE MOVES TOWARD
NEW ENGLAND. EXPECT WIND GUSTS AROUND 30 MPH BY LATE THIS AFTN.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM SATURDAY/...
WITH PLENTY OF FIREWORKS SCHEDULED FOR SHORTLY AFTER SUNSET
(WHICH IS AROUND 830 PM), SKIES WILL BE CLEAR FOR MUCH OF THE AREA
IN TIME ALTHOUGH SOME CLOUDS MAY LINGER OVER COASTAL AREAS.
THE MAIN WX-RELATED IMPACT FOR FIREWORKS WILL BE THE GUSTY WINDS.
A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT (FOR JULY STANDARDS) WILL PERSIST ACROSS
THE AREA AS HIPRES BUILDS IN FROM THE MIDWEST AND HURRICANE ARTHUR
PULLS AWAY FROM THE AREA TOWARD THE CANADIAN MARITIME. NW WINDS
MAY GUST 25-35 MPH DURING THE EARLY EVENING BUT WILL START TO
DIMINISH AROUND OR SHORTLY AFTER SCHEDULED FIREWORKS TIME.

SUSTAINED WINDS AROUND 5-15 MPH WILL CONTINUE OVERNIGHT. MIN TEMP
FCST WEIGHTED ON THE WARMER SIDE OF GUIDANCE WITH THE BOUNDARY LAYER
REMAINING WELL MIXED.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
SAT AND SUN...ARTHUR WILL BE WELL NE OF THE AREA. THE PRESSURE
GRADIENT WILL CREATE GUSTY WINDS ACROSS THE REGION SAT AND THE
SWELLS MAY CONTINUE TO PRODUCE ROUGH SURF AT THE OCEAN. THE SENSIBLE
WEATHER THIS WEEKEND WILL BE DRY WITH SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES AND
COMFORTABLE HUMIDITY LEVELS. THIS CONTINUES A DECENT TRACK RECORD OF
FAIR WEATHER WEEKEND. HIGHS SAT MOSTLY IN THE LOW 80S AND A FEW
DEGREES HIGHER SUN. A FEW UPPER 80S POSSIBLE ACROSS SRN DE ON
SUNDAY.

MON...A WEAK H5 TROUGH ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES WILL CAUSE LOW
PRESSURE TO PASS WELL NORTH OF THE AREA. HIGH PRESSURE OFF THE COAST
WILL CREATE A RETURN FLOW WHICH WILL CAUSE HUMIDITY LEVELS TO RISE
ONCE AGAIN. THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY WILL BE BACK MON WITH HIGH
TEMPERATURES ONCE AGAIN IN THE UPPER 80S AND LOW 90S ACROSS MOST
AREAS. THERE IS A SMALL CHC FOR A SHOWER/TSTM ACROSS THE FAR
N/W...BUT OTHER THAN THAT DRY ACROSS A VAST MAJORITY OF THE FORECAST
AREA.

TUE AND WED...THERE IS A BETTER CHC FOR SHOWERS AND TSTMS THIS
PERIOD AS A COLD FRONT APPROACHES AND SLOWS ACROSS THE AREA. A WEAK
LOW WILL DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT...FURTHER SLOWING IT WED. THERE IS
A CHC OR SLGT CHC FOR SHOWERS AND TSTMS ON BOTH DAYS IN MOST AREAS.
THE N/W AREAS ARE MOST FAVORED. TEMPS WILL RUN A BIT ABOVE NORMAL
BOTH DAYS WITH MID/UPPER 80S IN MOST AREAS. (COOLER ACROSS THE SRN
POCONOS AND A BIT WARMER OVER SRN DELAWARE).

THU...WEAK HIGH PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO MOVE ACROSS THE AREA...SO
THE CHCS FOR PCPN WILL BE LESS THAN THE EARLIER FEW DAYS. WE WILL
STILL KEEP A SMALL CHC FOR A SHOWER/TSTM AS OFFERED BY WPC. TEMPS
WILL CONTINUE TO RUN A FEW DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL.

&&

.AVIATION /10Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY AND SURROUNDING AREAS.

GENERALLY VFR CONDITIONS EARLY THIS MRNG DESPITE AREAS OF SHRA OVER
THE AREA. A PERIOD OF MVFR POSSIBLE IN MODERATE SHRA THIS MRNG AND
BRIEFLY/LOCALIZED IFR RESTRICTIONS IN HEAVY SHRA. NLY WINDS WILL
INCREASE THRUOUT THE DAY AS HURRICANE ARTHUR TRACKS EAST OF THE NRN
MID-ATLANTIC REGION. GUST TO 20 KT THIS MRNG AND TO 30 KT BETWEEN
ABOUT 18Z-00Z. WINDS WILL DIMINISH TNGT AFTER SUNSET TO 10-15 KT.

OUTLOOK...
SAT THRU MONDAY...VFR EXPECTED. GUSTY WINDS SAT.
TUE...VFR WITH SCT AFTERNOON TSTMS ACROSS THE NORTH/WESTERN
TERMINALS.

&&

.MARINE...
LIGHT WINDS THIS MORNING WILL INCREASE RAPIDLY FROM SOUTH TO
NORTH LATER THIS MRNG AS HURRICANE ARTHUR MOVES OFF THE MID-
ATLANTIC COAST. WIND/WAVE HAZARDS COVERED BY SCA BUT PLEASE NOTE
WINDS THAT WIND GUSTS WILL APPROACH CLOSE TO TROPICAL STORM FORCE
JUST OFF THE DELMARVA AND SRN NJ COAST THIS AFTN. THE 00Z GFS
INDICATES TROPICAL STORM CONDITIONS FOR THESE ZONES WHILE MAJORITY
OF OTHER GUIDANCE, INCLUDING FROM NHC, KEEP THE TROPICAL STORM
FORCE WINDS ABOUT 25-50 MILES EAST OF THE COASTAL MARINE ZONES.
HIGH SURF CAN ALSO BE EXPECTED WITH WAVES OF 6 TO 8 FEET THIS AFTN
AND TNGT WHEN ARTHUR IS CLOSEST TO THE AREA.

OUTLOOK...
SAT...SCA CONDITIONS EARLY WILL DIMINISH LATE.
SUN...MOSTLY SUB-SCA CONDITIONS UNTIL EVENING WHEN WINDS AND SEAS
WILL APPROACH SCA CONDITIONS.
MON...SCA POSSIBLE.

&&

.RIP CURRENTS...
BECAUSE OF ARTHUR'S PASS COINCIDING WITH THE START OF THE HOLIDAY
WEEKEND, WE HAVE DECIDED TO ISSUE A HIGH SURF ADVISORY FOR TODAY
AND TONIGHT, EVEN IF WE WILL FALL A BIT SHORT OF CRITERIA. WE
ALSO ARE ANTICIPATING A HIGH RISK FOR RIP CURRENTS.

THIS POSES A HUGE CONCERN CONSIDERING THE LARGE NUMBERS OF
PEOPLE, INCLUDING THE LESS EXPERIENCED SWIMMERS, WHO WILL VENTURE
OUT DURING ONE OF THE BIGGEST BEACH WEEKENDS OF THE YEAR. THE
TRANQUIL WEATHER CONDITIONS ON LAND THIS WEEKEND COULD LEAD TO A
FALSE SENSE OF SAFETY IN THE WATERS.

RIP CURRENTS ARE LIFE-THREATENING IF YOU/RE NOT PREPARED TO
HANDLE THEM. FOR THE GREATEST CHANCE OF SAFETY...SWIM ONLY UNDER
THE WATCHFUL EYES OF LIFEGUARDS. OTHERWISE ANY OPPORTUNITY FOR
RESCUE CAN SUFFER FROM A MUCH GREATER RESPONSE DELAY AND BE FATAL.
