Special Weather Statement, NWS Philadelphia/Mount Holly

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
924 PM EST WED FEB 24 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
STRONG LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE NORTHEAST TONIGHT FROM OHIO THROUGH
THE LOWER GREAT LAKES...WITH SOUTHERLY WINDS AND MILD RAINY AIR IN
THE WARM SECTOR TO ITS SOUTHEAST. A TRAILING COLD FRONT WILL SWEEP
ACROSS THE MID-ATLANTIC REGION TONIGHT AND WILL BE WELL OFFSHORE BY
THURSDAY MORNING. THE LOW WILL CONTINUE NORTHEAST THROUGH CANADA ON
THURSDAY AND WINDS BEHIND THE LOW WILL BRING COLDER AIR FOR FRIDAY
AND SATURDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL MAINTAIN GENERALLY FAIR WEATHER
FROM FRIDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND WITH A MODERATING TEMPERATURE TREND
FROM SUNDAY INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. A COLD FRONT PASSAGE ON MONDAY
SHOULD BE MOSTLY RAIN FREE BUT RETURN TEMPERATURE TO NEAR NORMAL FOR
THE BEGINNING OF MARCH.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
930 PM UPDATE...STRONGER WINDS MAY MIX DOWN JUST AHEAD OF THE MAIN
LINE OF STORMS, SO HAVE EXPANDED THE WIND ADVISORY TO INCLUDE ALL
COUNTIES THAT REMAIN E OF THE LINE. STILL EXPECT IT TO BE SHORT
LIVED AS THE WINDS DROP OFF CONSIDERABLY BEHIND THE MAIN LINE.

730 PM UPDATE...EXPANDED THE TORNADO WATCH FURTHER NORTH TO
INCLUDE THE REST OF OUR AREA. LINE IS MOVING INTO THE POCONOS AND
BERKS COUNTY NOW AND SHOULD CONTINUE TO PROGRESS QUICKLY NORTH
NORTHEAST. STILL EXPECTING THE PRIMARY THREAT TO BE STRONG WINDS,
BUT THERE REMAINS SOME THREAT FOR A FEW TORNADOES.

PREVIOUS NEAR TERM DISCUSSION...THE WARM FRONT PUSHED INLAND AS
FAR AS THE INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR BY MID AFTERNOON. TEMPERATURES
AHEAD OF THE FRONT WERE MAINLY IN THE 40S WHILE READINGS BEHIND
THE BOUNDARY WERE MOSTLY IN THE UPPER 50S AND LOWER 60S. THE FRONT
IS EXPECTED TO LIFT NORTHWARD ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF NEW JERSEY
AND EASTERN PENNSYLVANIA THROUGH THIS EVENING.

A STRONG LOW LEVEL SOUTHERLY JET EXTENDED FROM THE WATERS OFF THE
SOUTHEAST COAST UP OVER OUR REGION AT 330 PM. THE CORE OF THE LOW
LEVEL JET IS FORECAST TO STRENGTHEN TO AROUND 70 KNOTS THIS EVENING
AS IT BECOMES LOCATED OFF OUR COAST. THE CORE OF THE LOW LEVEL JET
IS THEN EXPECTED TO LIFT TO OUR NORTHEAST OVERNIGHT.

LOW PRESSURE THAT WAS LOCATED OVER OHIO THIS AFTERNOON WILL PROGRESS
NORTHEASTWARD AND IT SHOULD REACH THE MONTREAL VICINITY AROUND
DAYBREAK. THE LOW IS EXPECTED TO PULL A COLD FRONT THROUGH OUR
REGION OVERNIGHT.

A CONVECTIVE LINE AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING COLD FRONT EXTENDED FROM
WESTERN VIRGINIA DOWN INTO CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA AROUND 330 PM. THE
LINE IS ANTICIPATED TO LIFT TO THE NORTHEAST AND IT SHOULD AFFECT
OUR FORECAST AREA BETWEEN ABOUT 730 PM AND 1030 PM. BEFORE THAT
TIME, SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE TO LIFT NORTHWARD THROUGH OUR REGION.
THE CONVECTION ASSOCIATED WITH THE LINE WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP IN
A LOW TOP, HIGH SHEAR ENVIRONMENT. WHILE LIGHTNING MAY BE LIMITED,
THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR LOCALLY DAMAGING WINDS AND ISOLATED
TORNADOES. THE SOUTHWESTERN HALF OF OUR FORECAST AREA IS UNDER A
TORNADO WATCH UNTIL 1100 PM.

BASED ON THE LATEST GUIDANCE, 24-HOUR RAINFALL TOTALS FOR THE PERIOD
ENDING AT 700 AM THURSDAY SHOULD RANGE FROM ABOUT 0.75 TO 1.50
INCHES FROM THE INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR NORTHWESTWARD. AMOUNTS ON THE
COASTAL PLAIN ARE ANTICIPATED TO RANGE FROM 0.25 TO 0.75 INCHES. THE
FORECAST AMOUNTS SHOULD RESULT IN SOME POOR DRAINAGE AREA AND
ROADWAY FLOODING ALONG WITH SOME MINOR FLOODING ON A FEW SMALL
STREAMS. THE FLOODING DOES NOT APPEAR AS THOUGH IT WILL BE
WIDESPREAD ENOUGH TO WARRANT A FLOOD WATCH. WE WILL COVER THE
SITUATION WITH AREAL FLOOD ADVISORIES, IF NECESSARY.

TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN MILD UNTIL THE COLD FRONT ARRIVES
OVERNIGHT, THEN READINGS ARE EXPECTED TO FALL BACK INTO THE 40S AT
MOST LOCATIONS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/...
THE SURFACE LOW IS FORECAST TO MOVE DOWN THE SAINT LAWRENCE RIVER
VALLEY ON THURSDAY. A SURFACE TROUGH IS EXPECTED TO APPROACH OUR
REGION FROM THE NORTHWEST LATE IN THE DAY.

THE STRONG LOW WILL MAINTAIN BRISK CONDITIONS IN OUR REGION. A
SOUTHWEST WIND AROUND 15 TO 20 MPH IS EXPECTED ALONG WITH GUSTS NEAR
30 MPH. THE FLOW IS FORECAST TO PULL ADDITIONAL STRATOCUMULUS
OVERHEAD AND THERE MAY BE SCATTERED SHOWERS, ESPECIALLY IN EASTERN
PENNSYLVANIA AND NEW JERSEY.

TEMPERATURES ARE NOT ANTICIPATED TO RECOVER MUCH ON THURSDAY. HIGHS
SHOULD BE MOSTLY IN THE UPPER 40S AND LOWER 50S.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
A LARGE SCALE UPPER TROF WILL BE OVER THE EASTERN US AT THE
BEGINNING OF THE LONG TERM ON FRIDAY. THIS TROF WILL MOVE
OFFSHORE FOR THE WEEKEND AND THE FLOW ALOFT WILL BECOME MORE ZONAL
BY EARLY NEXT WEEK. THERE WILL BE SEVERAL SHRTWV TROFS MOVG
QUICKLY THROUGH THE FLOW BUT THEY WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PICK UP MUCH
MOISTURE SO THE WEATHER SHOULD BE MAINLY DRY.

FOR FRIDAY...THE CURRENT OHIO VLY STORM WILL THEN BE OVER EASTERN
CANADA AND A SECONDARY SURGE OF COLD AIR BEHIND IT WILL MOVE INTO
THE FCST AREA EARLY IN THE DAY. GUSTY NW WINDS WILL ACCOMPANY THIS
SURGE. A FEW SNOW FLURRIES OR SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE IN THE POCONOS
BUT OTHERWISE NO PRECIP IS EXPECTED. LOW LEVEL CAA WILL CONTINUE
THROUGH FRI NIGHT.

ON SATURDAY A SFC RIDGE AXIS MOVES OVER THE AREA AND WINDS WILL
DIE DOWN SOME. MAX TEMPS ON SAT WILL BE SIMILAR TO FRIDAY AND
SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL...HOWEVER SOME WAA SHOULD BEGIN LATE IN THE
DAY AS WINDS BACK TO THE SW. SUN IS EXPECTED TO BE MUCH MILDER
THAN SAT WITH 850 HPA TEMPS FORECAST TO 10-15 DEG C ON WLY FLOW.

A FAST MOVING SHRTWV TROF ALOFT AND ASSOCD SFC COLD FRONT ARE
FORECAST TO CROSS THE AREA ON MONDAY. THERE WILL LIKELY NOT BE
MUCH MOISTURE WITH THIS SYSTEM SO THE FCST FOR MONDAY HAS ONLY LOW
CHC POPS NORTH AND SLIGHT CHC SOUTH. IT IS NOT CLEAR HOW MUCH
COLDER AIR WILL BE ABLE TO PUSH IN BEHIND THE FRONT WITH ZONAL
FLOW ALOFT...BUT AS OF NOW TEMPS SHOULD REMAIN NEAR OR SLIGHTLY
ABOVE NORMAL FOR THE FIRST PART OF NEXT WEEK. SOME PRECIP MAY
DEVELOP AROUND MID WEEK AS ANOTHER STORM SYSTEM BEGINS TO TAKE
SHAPE OVER THE CENTRAL US.

&&

.AVIATION /03Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
A LINE OF STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE OVER OUR TAF
SITES WITHING THE NEXT 4 HOURS IN ADVANCE OF A COLD FRONT. THE
FRONT SHOULD PASS THROUGH OUR REGION AROUND 0600Z FOLLOWED BY
IMPROVEMENT TO VFR FOR LATE TONIGHT AND THURSDAY.

A GUSTY SOUTHEAST TO SOUTH WIND HAD DEVELOPED AT KACY, KMIV, KILG,
KPHL, KPNE AND KTTN BY 2030Z. THE WIND SHIFT IS FORECAST TO REACH
KRDG AND KABE BY 2200Z OR 2300Z. THE WIND SHOULD SETTLE INTO THE
SOUTH FOR THIS EVENING AT SPEEDS OF 12 TO 16 KNOTS WITH GUSTS OF 25
TO 30 KNOTS. THE WIND IS ANTICIPATED TO SHIFT TO THE SOUTHWEST
FOLLOWING THE COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE AROUND 0600Z.

OUTLOOK...

THURSDAY NIGHT ..MAINLY VFR CEILINGS. A FEW SNOW SHOWERS ARE
POSSIBLE WELL NORTH AND WEST OF KPHL. WEST WINDS 15 TO 20 KNOTS

FRIDAY...VFR. NORTHWEST WINDS GUSTING TO 30 KNOTS.

SATURDAY...VFR. WEST WINDS MOSTLY 10-15 KNOTS.

SUNDAY...VFR. SOUTHWEST WINDS GUSTING TO 25 KNOTS.

MONDAY...MOSTLY VFR. SOUTHWEST WINDS BECOMING NORTHWEST. WIND GUSTS
TO 30 KNOTS.

&&

.MARINE...
WE HAVE UPGRADED DELAWARE BAY TO A GALE WARNING AND IT IS IN
EFFECT UNTIL MIDNIGHT. THE GALE WARNING ON OUR OCEAN WATERS HAS
BEEN EXTENDED UNTIL 600 AM THURSDAY.

A 70 KNOT LOW LEVEL SOUTHERLY JET WILL BE OVER OUR COASTAL WATERS
THIS EVENING. WHILE THE WARM AIR OVER THE COLD WATER WILL NOT
PRESENT THE MOST IDEAL SET-UP FOR TRANSFERRING THE WIND GUSTS TO THE
SURFACE, THERE SHOULD BE ENOUGH PRECIPITATION AROUND TO HELP MIX THE
ATMOSPHERE JUST ENOUGH AT TIME. WE MAY NOT ACHIEVE THE TEMPORAL
DEFINITION OF A GALE WARNING EVERYWHERE BUT WE ARE UNABLE TO
FORECAST WITH CONFIDENCE WHICH LOCATIONS WILL BE MOST AFFECTED AND
WHICH WILL NOT. AS A RESULT, IT SEEMED PRUDENT TO INCLUDE ALL AREAS.

WIND GUSTS OF 25 TO 30 KNOTS OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST ARE ANTICIPATED
FOR THURSDAY, SO THE GALE WARNINGS WILL LIKELY BE REPLACED BY A
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FOR THURSDAY WHEN THEY EXPIRE.

OUTLOOK...

THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY...WESTERLY WINDS WITH GALE FORCE GUSTS
EXPECTED THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING. THE WINDS AND SEAS DIMINISH FRIDAY
NIGHT, HOWEVER A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY SHOULD BE NEEDED FOR A TIME.

SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...WEST WINDS ON SATURDAY WILL INCREASE AND
BECOME SOUTHWEST ON SUNDAY. HOWEVER ATTM THEY ARE ANTICIPATED TO BE
BELOW ADVISORY CRITERIA. THE SEAS HOWEVER SHOULD BUILD SOME LATER
SUNDAY TO NEAR 5 FEET ON THE ATLANTIC COASTAL WATERS.

SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY...INCREASING SOUTHWEST WIND AND BUILDING
SEAS WITH SCA CONDITIONS EXPECTED.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
PRECIP IS EXPECTED TO PICK UP ONCE AGAIN LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND
PERSIST THROUGH ABOUT MIDNIGHT. PRECIP WILL BE ENDING FROM
SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST ACROSS THE AREA. THE PRECIP THAT WILL
ARRIVE THIS EVENING WITH THE COLD FRONT WILL BE THE HEAVIEST WE'VE
SEEN THE LAST 24 HOURS. LIKE WE'VE SEEN EARLIER THIS MONTH, THERE
WILL BE A CONVECTIVE CONTRIBUTION HELPING TO INCREASE RAIN
AMOUNTS. ON THE OTHER HAND, BECAUSE OF THE CONVECTIVE
CONTRIBUTION, NOT EVERYONE WILL SEE THE SAME AMOUNT OF RAINFALL.

IN TERMS OF ANY FLOODING, AS OF NOW, THE LATEST FORECASTS OUT OF
THE MARFC CALL FOR CAUTION STAGE AT PEMBERTON ON THE NORTH BRANCH
RANCOCAS CREEK, AT BLACKWELLS MILLS ON THE MILLSTONE RIVER, AND AT
PINE BROOK ON THE PASSAIC. CRESTS WILL OCCUR TOMORROW INTO FRIDAY.

IN THE NEAR TERM FOR TONIGHT, THERE'S A MUCH GREATER LIKELIHOOD OF
POOR DRAINAGE AND LOW LYING FLOODING WITH THE EXPECTED HEAVIER
BURSTS OF RAIN. SOME FLOODING IS ALSO LIKELY ALONG SOME OF THE
FASTER RESPONDING RUNS, CREEKS AND STREAMS THAT CAN'T HANDLE A LOT
RUNOFF IN A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME.

ACROSS SE PA, WHERE WE SEE THE MOST RECURRING SMALL CREEK AND STREAM
FLOODING IN THE HSA, ANOTHER 0.25 TO 0.75 IS EXPECTED THIS EVENING.
IT'S CERTAINLY NOT UNCOMMON TO SEE THIS AMOUNT OF RAIN, BUT WHAT
LAYER OF THE GROUND IS NOT FROZEN IS SATURATED, MAKING THE RUNOFF
PROCESS EFFICIENT. HENCE THE ENHANCED FLOOD THREAT FOR SMALLER
BODIES OF WATER.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
WE TRANSITIONED TO A SOUTHERLY FLOW OVER OUR COASTAL WATERS THIS
AFTERNOON. AS A RESULT, THERE IS NO THREAT OF COASTAL FLOODING
ALONG THE OCEANFRONT. BEING THAT THE SOUTHEAST FLOW WAS RATHER
LIMITED IN TIME, THERE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE MUCH OF A POTENTIAL
FOR COASTAL FLOODING ON DELAWARE BAY OR ON THE TIDAL DELAWARE
RIVER.

WE ARE CONCERNED WITH THE EXPECTED SOUTHERLY FLOW UP CHESAPEAKE BAY
THROUGH THIS EVENING AND INTO THE EARLY PART OF TONIGHT AND ITS
POSSIBLE IMPACT ON THURSDAY MORNING'S HIGH TIDE ON THE UPPER EASTERN
SHORE. THE WIND IS FORECAST TO SHIFT TO THE SOUTHWEST OVERNIGHT AND
IT SHOULD NOT INITIALLY ALLOW THE WATER TO DRAIN VERY WELL. AS A
RESULT, WE WILL ISSUE A COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY FOR NORTHEASTERN
MARYLAND FOR THURSDAY MORNING'S HIGH TIDE.
