Areal Flood Advisory 193, NWS Philadelphia/Mount Holly

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ
1157 AM EDT Mon Aug 7 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
Low pressure will track along a warm front which moves across
our area later today and tonight. A cold front will then move
through late tonight and early Tuesday. High pressure builds in
later Tuesday and Wednesday before moving offshore Thursday. A
frontal zone should then settle into our region later Friday and
Saturday, before potentially stalling near Delmarva Sunday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
Showers have arrived across most areas and a few tstms with
downpours are across Delmarva attm. A bigger batch of rains
continues to head our way from MD/VA. Minor adjustments to
temps and winds were made for the update.

We will be dealing with an unseasonable weather pattern for
today. Low pressure located over Tennessee and Kentucky early
this morning will progress east northeastward. The low is
expected to reach Maryland toward evening.

The rain showers will become more numerous with rainfall rates
increasing into the moderate to heavy range as the afternoon
progresses. A low level jet developing in advance of the surface
low should enhance rainfall rates this afternoon along with
bringing a chance of thunderstorms.

We will continue the Flash Flood Watch.

There is the potential for severe thunderstorms mainly to the
south of the low's track. Parts of northeastern Maryland,
Delaware and far southern New Jersey have the greatest chance in
our region to experience locally damaging wind gusts.

The overcast sky and the rain will keep temperatures quite cool
for early August. Maximum temperatures will favor the 70s in
our region. Readings may not get out of the 60s in parts of the
Poconos, the Lehigh Valley and northern New Jersey. Locations in
central and southern Delaware and in the adjacent counties of
Maryland may reach 80 degrees.

The wind is anticipated to favor the south to east quadrant
today increasing around 8 to 12 MPH. Gusts around 20 MPH are
expected near the coast.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM TUESDAY/...
The center of the low is forecast to be on the upper Delmarva
around 8:00 PM. It should continue east northeastward, passing
off the northern part of the New Jersey coast around midnight.
The low should be approaching Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket
around daybreak on Tuesday.

Once the surface low passes, the strong inflow of moisture
ahead of the system will be moving away from our region. As a
result, rainfall rates will begin to decrease at that time but
not before an inch or two of rain falls across much of our area.
Locally higher amounts in excess of 4 inches are possible from
northeastern Maryland and Delaware into southeastern
Pennsylvania and southern and central New Jersey.

The last of the rain should end in the midnight to 3:00 AM time
frame with low clouds lingering during much of the night.

Minimum temperatures are anticipated to be mostly in the 60s.
The wind should settle into the west and northwest around 5 to
10 MPH as the surface low moves away from our region.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
Summary...Improving conditions with drier air Tuesday and
Wednesday. Some moisture starts to return Thursday and
especially Friday into the weekend as a frontal zone should
settle its way into our region.

Synoptic Overview...A sharpening upper-level trough quickly
moves off the Northeast coast later Tuesday, however the broad
trough over eastern Canada amplifies on its southwestern flank
Wednesday. This will gradually translate eastward and arrive in
the Northeast and Mid Atlantic Friday into Saturday. The overall
pattern looks to favor a trough from the Midwest, Great Lakes
to the Northeast. While no significant systems are currently
anticipated, an increasing convective potential looks to develop
late in the week and over the weekend. This will depend on the
timing of the short waves and also the potential arrival of a
frontal zone. We used a model/continuity blend for Tuesday
through Wednesday night, then blended in mostly the 00z WPC
Guidance thereafter.

For Tuesday and Wednesday...An upper-level trough should
quickly move across the Northeast and Mid Atlantic Tuesday, then
it shifts east by evening. This will push a cold front south
and east of our area Tuesday morning, with drier air and some
subsidence arriving from the northwest. Some model guidance
wants to delay the more substantial drying until Tuesday night,
and therefore pops some showers longer Tuesday associated with
the trough axis aloft passing through. Overall, it appears that
enough drying moves in with the deeper moisture getting shunted
offshore with the front earlier in the day. Therefore, kept some
low PoPs mainly across the eastern and far southern areas
early. A breeze will increase Tuesday as clouds thin out from
northwest to southeast and boundary layer mixing deepens some
(the flow weakens later in the day). High pressure builds into
our area Wednesday, although it then starts to shift offshore at
night.

For Thursday and Friday...Surface high pressure is to our east
as the next portion of the broad upper-level trough amplifies
across the Midwest and Great Lakes. This will back the
downstream flow to more west to southwest, with a stalled front
to our south potentially shifting northward some. We look to
remain between this front and also another front to our
northwest. An axis of building moisture and some lift will
result in some convection, and this looks to initially be to our
south and west Thursday but then gradually shifts eastward
through Friday. Short wave energy looks to mostly arrive on
Friday with surface low pressure moving into the Great Lakes
region. A frontal zone may be across or near our area on Friday,
however the convective evolution is less certain as the main
forcing is also less certain. It will also be a bit more humid
Friday as the low-level moisture increases. We will continue
with slight chance to chance PoPs developing from southwest to
northeast especially starting later Thursday.

For Saturday and Sunday...A strengthening upper-level trough in
the Great Lakes region is forecast to allow a surface low to
track eastward. An increase in the south to southwest flow in
the low to mid levels will induce some warm air advection, and
this should start to push a warm front into our area. The
placement of this front however at this time range is less
certain. As a result, some showers and thunderstorms cannot be
ruled out although these may be more numerous Sunday depending
on the timing of an incoming cold front. This timeframe is
forecast to be more humid for much of the area.

&&

.AVIATION /16Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas.

Rain showers were spreading into our region from the west.
Gradually deteriorating conditions are anticipated for the rest
of the morning with all our TAF sites expected to be in the
MVFR category by afternoon. IFR conditions are likely as
rainfall rates increase this afternoon. The rain is forecast to
move away to our east and northeast tonight. However, low clouds
and IFR conditions should linger through much of the night.

A south to southeast wind this morning should begin to back
toward the east this afternoon, except at KACY. Low pressure is
forecast to pass over the southern part of our region this
evening. The wind direction is expected to back to the northeast
then to the northwest, except again at KACY where the trend
should be for the direction to veer to the southwest then to the
west.

Wind speeds are expected to favor the 6 to 12 knot range.
Frequent gusts around 20 knots are possible this afternoon and
this evening at KACY.

Outlook...
Tuesday...MVFR ceilings possible early, then VFR with cloud
bases rising and also thinning out through the day. Northwest
winds 10-15 knots, diminishing to 5 knots or less at night.

Wednesday...VFR. Northwest winds around 5 knots, becoming
southwest or south through the day (southeast for KMIV and
KACY).

Thursday and Friday...Generally VFR, however some showers and
thunderstorms are possible especially Friday. Local MVFR/IFR
conditions will be possible with any heavier showers or
thunderstorms. Northeast to southeast winds mostly 5-10 knots
each day.

&&

.MARINE...
Updated marine grids/products to put the SCA flag up in all
areas of our waters at noon.

An area of low pressure approaching from the west is forecast
to pass off the New Jersey coast tonight. The wind direction is
expected to favor the southeast and south today before becoming
southwest to west tonight. Speeds should be mostly in the 10 to
20 knot range. However, gusts around 25 knots are anticipated
for this afternoon into tonight.

The system is expected to cause wave heights to build into the
4 to 6 foot range late in the day on our ocean waters. Waves on
Delaware Bay will likely build to 2 to 4 feet.

Outlook...
Tuesday...Northwest winds may gust up to 20 knots in the
morning, then diminish and turn west in the evening before
turning northerly at night. Overall, the conditions are
anticipated to be below Small Craft Advisory criteria.

Wednesday through Friday...The conditions are anticipated to be
below Small Craft Advisory criteria. Winds should be from the
northeast to southeast during this time frame.

Rip Currents...
The increasing wind speeds and wave heights today will result
in a moderate risk for the development of dangerous rip
currents.
