Special Weather Statement, NWS Philadelphia/Mount Holly

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
334 AM EST THU FEB 13 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE LOCATED OFF THE NORTH CAROLINA COAST EARLY THIS MORNING
WILL MOVE NORTHEAST ALONG THE COAST THROUGH FRIDAY. LATER FRIDAY...
ANOTHER COLD FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL MOVE INTO THE MIDWEST WHICH WILL
SWING THROUGH OUR REGION FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY. HIGH PRESSURE
WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION FOR SUNDAY AND MONDAY WITH A CLIPPER
SYSTEM TRACKING SOUTH OF THE REGION. ANOTHER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
WILL APPROACH THE REGION TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
THE CENTER OF LOW PRESSURE (1001 MB) WAS LOCATED NEAR THE OUTER
BANKS OF NC AT 300 AM. THE LOW WILL CONTINUE TO DEEPEN AND MOVE
UP ALONG THE MIDDLE ATLANTIC COAST TODAY.

SNOW HAS OVERSPREAD THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE AREA (SINCE THE LAST
AFD). RATES OF SNOW CONTINUE TO INCREASE OVER MANY PARTS OF THE
AREA. THE RAIN/SNOW LINE HAS ARRIVED ACROSS SE NJ AND SUSSEX
COUNTY DEL. WE WILL CONTINUE WITH THE WSW FLAGS...SINCE THE
IMPACTS OF THE WINTER WEATHER ARE ONGOING. WSW FLAGS WILL REMAIN
AS-IS FOR THE MORNING PACKAGE. RAIN/SLEET WILL CONTINUE TO MIX
IN ACROSS THE S/E AREAS BEFORE CHANGING TO RAIN LATER. MINOR
ADJUSTEMENTS TO SNOWFALL ACCUMS WER MADE OVER NJ/DEL. GUSTY NE
WINDS EXPECTED TODAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM FRIDAY/...
THE ENDING TIME OF THE PRECIPITATION CONTINUES TO SLIP FARTHER
AWAY...NOW INTO FRIDAY MORNING FOR THE FAR NE. THE DEFORMATION
ZONE SNOW BEHIND THE SYSTEM WILL MAKE FOR ANOTHER PERIOD OF DECENT
ACCUMS ACROSS NJ/ERN PA TONIGHT. THE ENDING TIMES OF THE WSW FLAGS
MAY BE ADJUSTED LATER...WHEN THE TIMING BECOMES MORE CERTAIN.
GUSTY N/NW WINDS TONIGHT. TEMPERATURES DROPPING INTO THE 20S...LOW
20S NORTH...MID/UPPER 20S SOUTH.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
LONG TERM PART OF THE FORECAST WAS NOT CHANGED OVERNIGHT...THE
PREVIOUS DISCUSSION IS BELOW.

FRIDAY: THE MAJOR WINTER STORM WILL BE DEPARTING OUR REGION AND
WE SHOULD SEE A DECREASE IN CLOUDS WITH A CONTINUED WESTERLY FLOW
BEHIND THE STORM. LEFT IN A SLIGHT CHANCE POP ACROSS THE NORTH FOR
ANY LINGERING MORNING PRECIPITATION. NOT MUCH IN THE WAY OF COLD
AIR ADVECTION BEHIND THE STORM WITH 850 MB TEMPS NOT FALLING MUCH
BELOW ZERO. AS A RESULT TEMPERATURES DO STAND A GOOD CHANCE TO
RISE INTO THE MID AND UPPER 30'S. DID GO COLDER THAN MEX/MOS
GUIDANCE DUE TO THE SNOW COVER AND SOME MORNING CLOUDS.

FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY: WE HAVE YET ANOTHER FRONTAL BOUNDARY
MOVING THROUGH THE REGION WITH AN ASSOCIATED LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
TRACKING SOUTH OF THE REGION. THIS WILL BRING A FRESH SHOT OF MID-
LEVEL COLD AIR INTO THE REGION. SURFACE TEMPERATURES WILL TAKE
LONGER TO COOL OFF AND MAY STAY RATHER STEADY SATURDAY WITH COLD
AIR ADVECTION BEHIND THE FRONT. THIS MEANS ANY PRECIPITATION WOULD
BE IN THE FORM OF SNOW OR A RAIN/SNOW MIX DOWN SOUTH. THE 12Z GFS
ALONG WITH THE CMC ARE STARTING TO FOCUS ON A SHORTWAVE BEING A
BIT STRONGER FRIDAY OVER THE MID-SOUTH AND MOVING NORTHEAST. THIS
GOES WITH THE ECMWF WHICH HAS BEEN SHOWING THIS FOR A FEW RUNS
NOW. THE 15Z SREF IS NOT YET PICKING UP ON THIS FEATURE BUT WPC
AND THE AFTERNOON MODEL GUIDANCE PROVIDE A NICE FEEL FOR HOW MUCH
PRECIPITATION WILL FALL. OVERALL THIS COULD BRING ANOTHER INCH OF
SNOW TO AREAS SOUTH AND EAST OF PHILADELPHIA WITH UNDER AN INCH TO
THE NORTH. TEMPERATURES BELOW FREEZING MAY LEAD TO SLICK SPOTS
SATURDAY MORNING. WENT MORE TOWARD THE 12Z GFS AND THE ECMWF SUITE
FOR TEMPERATURES IN THIS PERIOD, MEX A LITTLE TO WARM.

SATURDAY NIGHT THOROUGH MONDAY: THIS IS ANOTHER COLD LOOKING
PERIOD. 850 MB TEMPS WILL DIVE TO AROUND -10C WITH STRONG COLD AIR
ADVECTION CONTINUING, WEST TO NORTHWEST FLOW. THIS WILL LIKELY
KEEP TEMPERATURES WELL BELOW FREEZING SUNDAY WILL GO MORE TOWARD
TO THE ECMWF SUITE FOR TEMPERATURES ON SUNDAY WHICH MATCHES UP
WELL WITH WPC. MODELING HAS BEEN CONSISTENT IN A BRINGING A WEAK
CLIPPER SYSTEM TO OUR SOUTH IN THE SUNDAY TIME FRAME AS WELL WHICH
MAY INCREASE CLOUDS WITH ANOTHER CHANCE OF LIGHT SNOW/FLURRIES
FOCUSED ACROSS THE DELMARVA. ONCE AGAIN THE RAW TWO METER
TEMPERATURES AT THE TIME WHEN THE HIGH PRESSURE WOULD BE OVERHEAD
SUNDAY NIGHT LOOK A LITTLE LOW ON THE EC AS IT ASSUMES SNOW COVER,
WHILE THE MEX AND OTHER STAT GUIDANCE ARE LIKELY TO HIGH.

MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY: THIS SHOULD BE A MODERATING
PERIOD AS THE HIGH PRESSURE MOVES EAST. A RECENT RARE OCCURRENCE
OF SOUTHERLY FLOW WOULD THEN ENSUE ALLOWING FOR A MODERATING TREND
AHEAD OF THE NEXT SYSTEM. THIS SYSTEM LOOKS TO CUT WELL INTO THE
LAKES/OH VALLEY RESULTING IN A WINTRY MIX TRANSITIONING TO RAIN.
THIS PERIOD MAY ALSO REQUIRE A NON-DIURNAL TEMPERATURE TREND
MONDAY NIGHT AS WELL. IN ADDITION THIS SYNOPTIC SET-UP MAY BRING A
CHANCE FOR FREEZING RAIN AS WELL. FOR NOW HAVE LEFT IT OUT OF THE
FORECAST WITH SEVERAL DAYS TO LOOK AT THIS FURTHER.

LONGER RANGE: THERE IS CURRENTLY COOLING PROJECTED AT 10 MB IN
THE STRATOSPHERE SUPPORTIVE OF +AO +NAO. A RETURN TO A MORE
POSITIVE EPO AS WELL MAY PROVIDE A WARM PERIOD RELATIVE TO NORMAL
JUST BEYOND OUR SEVEN DAY WINDOW. THE CFS WEEKLIES ARE ALSO
SHOWING THIS WARM PERIOD. SO HANG IN THERE IF YOU ARE TIRED OF THE
SNOW AND CONTINUED COLD.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG,

AND WILL GRADUALLY PUSH FURTHER INLAND THROUGH THE DAY TODAY.
PERIODS OF MIXED PRECIPITATION MAY OCCUR DURING THE TRANSITION. KABE
AND KRDG MAY NOT QUITE SEE THE CHANGEOVER TO RAIN BUT MAY SEE SOME
SLEET MIXING IN WITH THE SNOW. THERE MAY A BRIEF PERIOD OF NO
PRECIPITATION LATER TODAY AS A DRY SLOW MOVES OVER THE REGION.

BECOME GUSTY AS WE GO THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING HOURS, REMAINING
