AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
630 AM EDT MON JUN 9 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER PENNSYLVANIA WILL WEAKEN AS IT MOVES
EAST AND DISSIPATE OVER THE DELMARVA PENINSULA LATER TODAY. THEN,
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO NEW ENGLAND AND THE CANADIAN
MARITIMES DURING THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. AS IT DOES, A WARM FRONT
ASSOCIATED WITH A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY
SHOULD THEN PASS NORTH OF THE AREA LATE THURSDAY. THIS LOW
IS FORECAST TO MOVE THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES INTO CANADA AND BRING
A COLD FRONT INTO THE REGION ON FRIDAY NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
BUILD IN FOR LATER SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
CONTINUING THETA-E ADVECTION AND WEAK ISENTROPIC LIFT ACROSS OUR
EASTERN ZONES ARE KEEPING THE SHOWERS GOING...SOME HEAVY AT TIMES.
FORTUNATELY THE SHOWERS ARE MOVING SO WE SHOULD NOT HAVE MANY
ISSUES, OUTSIDE THE NORMAL POOR DRAINAGE AREAS, IN TERMS OF FLOODING.

OTHERWISE, SURFACE ANALYSIS PLACES A WEAKENING SURFACE LOW
PRESSURE ACROSS CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA WITH LITTLE EASTWARD
MOVEMENT. ILL- DEFINED PRESSURE GRADIENT SHOWS WHAT WAS ONCE A
WARM FRONT TO OUR SOUTHWEST THAT FIZZLED OUT WHILE A WEAK COLD
FRONT HANGS BACK IN THE WESTERN PART OF PA.

THE GENERAL TREND THROUGH THIS MORNING IS DECREASING POPS FROM WEST
TO EAST AS THE SURFACE LOW MOVES EASTWARD AND THE BETTER DYNAMICS
ARE LOST WELL TO OUR EAST. THE HEAVIEST ACTIVITY IS ACROSS CENTRAL
AND NORTHERN NEW JERSEY MOVING TOWARDS THE NORTHEAST AS THE WINDS
ALOFT BEGIN TO VEER TOWARDS THE SOUTHWEST. BEHIND THIS AREA THERE
ARE SOME WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWERS ACROSS DELMARVA AND NORTHERN
VIRGINIA BUT THE HI-RES GUIDANCE SQUEEZES THEM INTO OUR AREA OVER
THE NEXT HOUR OR TWO.

DEEP LAYER MOISTURE CONTINUES TO STREAM INTO THE REGION FROM THE
SOUTHWEST AND WITH THE SLOW PROGRESSION OF THE SURFACE LOW WE WILL
CONTINUE OUR SOUTHERLY FLOW FOR A MAJORITY OF THE DAY. THIS WILL
KEEP THE STRATUS ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH AT LEAST THE EARLY
AFTERNOON BEFORE LIFTING A BIT. TEMPERATURES WILL BE KEPT CLOSER TO
SEASONAL AVERAGES WITH THE CLOUD COVER IN PLACE.

MORE SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDER IS POSSIBLE ONCE AGAIN THIS
AFTERNOON WITH MARGINAL INSTABILITY IN PLACE SO WE KEEP HIGHER
CHANCE POPS JUST ABOUT EVERYWHERE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM TUESDAY/...
WE LOSE THE SURFACE BASED INSTABILITY THIS EVENING BUT WE KEEP THE
MUGGY ENVIRONMENT IN PLACE WITH WINDS STILL OUT OF THE SOUTH. WEAK
FRONTAL BOUNDARY, THE ONE BACK IN WESTERN PA TODAY, MAY HAVE ENOUGH
MUSTER TO CONTINUE SHOWER ACTIVITY TONIGHT...WE HAVE THE MOISTURE TO
SPARE AT THIS POINT. AREAS OF FOG AND MORE STRATUS SHOULD PREVAIL
TONIGHT, ESPECIALLY WHERE THE HEAVIER RAIN FALLS TODAY. TEMPERATURES
WILL REMAIN QUITE MILD TONIGHT WITH LOWS A COUPLE DEGREES WARMER
THAN THIS MORNINGS.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
A RIDGE ALOFT WILL BE BUILDING OVER THE REGION AND HIGH PRESSURE
WILL BE BUILDING OVER NEW ENGLAND. BOTH OF THESE FEATURES WILL
LIKELY KEEP A GOOD PORTION OF THE TUESDAY INTO EARLY WED TIME
FRAME DRY. THERE COULD BE SOME SHOWERS EARLY TUESDAY AND DIURNAL
SHWRS/TSTMS WED AFTN. THE GUID STILL IS IN DISAGREEMENT DURG THIS
TIME, BUT ONE THING IS CLEAR...THE GFS IS SUFFERING FROM SOME
CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK PROBLEMS DURG THE EARLY AND MIDWEEK PERIOD
AND THESE ISSUES ARE IMPACTING ITS PRECIP FCST. CONSEQUENTLY, IT
IS THE WETTEST MDL DURG THIS TIME AND GENLY THE OUTLIER.

BY THU, LOW PRES OVER THE LWR MS VLY WILL MOVE NWD AND WEAKEN AND
ITS ASSOCD WMFNT WILL CROSS THE REGION BRINGING A BETTER CHC OF
RAIN. PRECIP CHC WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE INTO FRI WHEN THE CDFNT
WILL APPROACH AND CROSS THE AREA FRI NIGHT.

BEHIND THE CFP, HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN AND IT LOOKS LIKE
ANOTHER DRY AND NICE WEEKEND IS IN STORE.

TEMPS LOOK TO BE AOA NRML THRU THE PD.

&&

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

TODAY...MVFR TO VFR. AN EXPANSIVE AREA OF MVFR CIGS TO OUR IMMEDIATE
WEST WILL CONTINUE TO WORKS ITS WAY EASTWARD THROUGH THE MORNING
HOURS. EXPECT MVFR CONDITIONS TO OCCUR OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS FROM
WEST TO EAST. IMPROVEMENT BACK TO VFR MAY TAKE UNTIL THE EARLY
AFTERNOON GIVEN THE PASSAGE OF A SLOW MOVING SURFACE LOW PRESSURE TO
OUR NORTHWEST. POCKETS OF SHOWERS THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS THEN A
BREAK IN THE ACTION AND POSSIBLY MORE ACTIVITY BY THE LATE AFTERNOON
HOURS...CAN NOT RULE OUT THUNDER TODAY. CONFIDENCE IS MODERATE.

TONIGHT...MVFR OR LOWER IN AREAS OF FOG AND STRATUS. WINDS WILL
REMAIN OUT OF THE SOUTH TONIGHT. CONFIDENCE IS MODERATE.

OUTLOOK...
TUE THROUGH WED NIGHT...PREDOMINATELY VFR. SOME MVFR CONDITIONS
IN SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS, ESPECIALLY EARLY TUE AND
WED AFTERNOON, AS WELL AS MORNING CLOUDS AND FOG. A DECENT PORTION
OF THE PERIOD COULD END UP DRY. MDT CONFIDENCE.

THU THROUGH FRI...GREATER COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND TSTMS AND
INCREASING CHANCES AS WE APPROACH FRI WITH MORE MVFR AND LOCALLY
IFR CONDITIONS IN PCPN AS WELL AS EARLY MORNING CLOUDS AND FOG.
MDT CONFIDENCE.

&&

.MARINE...
SUB-SCA CONDITIONS THROUGH TONIGHT THOUGH SEAS WILL BE BUILDING
UPWARDS OF 4 FEET BY THIS AFTERNOON. SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL PERSIST
ACROSS THE WATERS TODAY AND TONIGHT AND MAY INCREASE UPWARDS OF 20
KNOTS THIS EVENING, THOUGH WE STILL EXPECT SUB-SCA GUSTS TO OCCUR.

OUTLOOK...
TUE THROUGH FRI...SUB-SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS ARE
EXPECTED THROUGHOUT THE PERIOD. GREATEST MARINE CONCERNS MAY BE
PATCHY FOG AND POSSIBLY STRONGER TSTMS FRIDAY.
