Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ
633 PM EDT Mon Jun 19 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front will move through the area tonight and offshore by
Tuesday morning. A secondary cold front will gradually approach from
the northwest Wednesday before dissipating over the area Wednesday
night. Bermuda high pressure looks to influence our weather once
again late in the week. Another frontal system may affect the area
sometime during the weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM TUESDAY MORNING/...
630 PM update: The Flash Flood Watch has been cancelled as the
drenching thunderstorms have shifted east. The remainder of the
Severe Thunderstorm Watch should be able to be cancelled soon.
This update was to adjust PoPs, remove the Flash Flood Watch
headline and adjust temperatures quite a bit behind the convective
line.

Otherwise, an upper-level trough over the Great Lakes region
this afternoon will continue to shift eastward. This will drive
a cold front across our area later this evening. The convection
that was initially more discrete continues to become more
linear.

The air mass in place is very warm and moist with PW values around 2
inches. This is resulting in MLCAPE of up to 2000 J/KG. The deep
southwesterly flow will mostly favor a linear convective mode,
however as the convective line grows upscale (moves into a stronger
low-level wind field along with an instability axis) eastward into
this evening there could be some embedded cells with some updraft
rotation. Given the mostly unidirectional flow though, straight-line
damaging wind gusts is the main threat. The wind damage threat will
be locally enhanced where line segments surge forward (bow out). The
mid level lapse rates do not appear to be all that steep, therefore
while some hail is possible this should temper this potential. The
overall high moisture content of the air mass may result in water-
loaded downdrafts which can enhance the downdraft potential
(downbursts) especially along the leading edge of the storms. The
tropical air mass will also be conducive for convection to produce
frequent lightning.

As mentioned earlier the PW values will be around 2 inches. This
will result in areas of very heavy rain as convection should be
efficient rainfall products. While the storm motions are fairly
quick, a linear mode and possible backbuilding of updrafts may
result in the potential for local flash flooding. Therefore, the
Flash Flood Watch remains as is.

One the organized convection moves off the coast later this evening,
some showers or thunder may linger in its wake as some height falls
occur with the incoming upper-level trough. The extent of additional
convection especially for the eastern and southern zones is less
certain as this will depend on how much the air mass is turned over
from the initial convective line. The dew points are expected to
start lowering overnight especially in the northern and western
zones.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM TUESDAY/...
Our area will be under the influence of an upper-level trough and
associated cyclonic flow Tuesday. This will allow a cold front to
push offshore early, however some lingering showers or thunder are
possible near the southeast zones to portions of Delmarva in the
morning. Otherwise, drying is forecast to work south and east during
the day, with this most noticeable especially to the north and west
of I-95. Despite a cold front clearing the area, it will be a warm
day although much of the area will get a break from the humid
conditions as the day progresses.

High temperatures are an even blend of MOS and continuity.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
Slightly cooler, but near normal temperatures, and somewhat
drier air moves into the region during the midweek. A mostly dry
period is expected Tuesday night through Thursday with a few
exceptions. The frontal boundary that moves thru our region
tonight will stall to our south tomorrow, then the northern edge
of precip along the front may expand northward toward southern
DE late Tuesday night and Wednesday as a disturbance tracks
along it. Additionally, diurnally-driven showers may develop
during peak heating Wednesday afternoon across the higher
terrain of northeastern PA and northwestern NJ as a shortwave
trough tracks nearby to the north.

It appears that another cold front an associated upper trof will
approach from the northwest Friday or Saturday, but timing is
uncertain at this point. The front may also be preceded by a
surge of tropical moisture from the Gulf of Mex. Given the
uncertainty for forcing and the overall summer-like pattern, the
forecast includes a chance of t-storms for Friday and through
the weekend for the entire area.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas.

Through tonight...As of 2230z, a line of gusty thunderstorms
is moving through KMIV and KACY. This line will clear the coast
over the next hour or so. An area of rain/showers is behind the
line of thunderstorms. Later this evening, some lingering
showers and local MVFR conditions may occur for awhile in the
wake of the line of thunderstorms. Otherwise, improving to VFR
overnight although some local light fog is possible. Southwest
to west- southwest winds diminishing to less than 10 knots.

Tuesday...VFR overall. A few morning showers possible near and south
and east of KACY and KMIV. West-southwest to southwest winds
increasing to around 10 knots.

OUTLOOK...
Tuesday night through Thursday...Mainly VFR conditions
expected. Low possibilities for sub-VFR restrictions from
stratus/fog late night/early morning each day. Southwest winds
10 kt or less.

Friday and Saturday...Chance for MVFR or tempo IFR conditions
in showers and thunderstorms. SW winds gust to 20 kt during the
afternoon on Friday.

&&

.MARINE...
The Small Craft Advisory remains in effect through Tuesday on our
ocean waters. The Small Craft Advisory is in effect for Delaware Bay
until 11:00 PM.

A gusty south to southwest wind continues into tonight as a low-
level jet moves across the region. These winds will diminish
overnight. The wave heights on our ocean waters should remain in the
5 to 8 foot range through tonight. A line of gusty thunderstorms is
expected to move through this evening. While the winds should be
below advisory criteria Tuesday, seas on the ocean should be about 5
feet.

OUTLOOK...
Tuesday night through Saturday...Winds and seas expected to
remain below SCA headline criteria.

RIP CURRENTS...
The high risk for the development of dangerous rip currents
continues through this evening along the coast of Delaware and New
Jersey. There is a 6 to 7 second southerly wind wave on top of a
very long period (around 16 seconds) southeasterly ground swell.
This combination results in an elevated risk for the development of
dangerous rip currents.

The primary wave period is forecast to be around 7 seconds from
the south on Tuesday and Wednesday. However, the underlying 13
to 16 second southeasterly swell is expected to linger into the
mid week period. As a result, the risk for the development of
dangerous rip currents is anticipated to be at least moderate
through the period along the coasts of Delaware and New Jersey.

&&

.EQUIPMENT...
NWS NWR and phone broadcast of the marine and surf zone
forecasts. Problems continue here at NWS PHI. Hope to resolve
later today or Tuesday.
