What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this areal flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Philadelphia/Mount Holly wrote its last area forecast discussion before this areal flood warning went out at May 27, 10:32 AM EDT, 5 hours 12 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 27, 10:32 AM EDT, 5 hours 12 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ
1032 AM EDT Sun May 27 2018

.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure remains anchored well off the Southeast U.S. coast
through the weekend. A back door cold front will slowly move
south across the region through today and will become nearly
stationary over the Mid-Atlantic and stretching back to the
south and west for the start of the new week. Several waves of
low pressure will impact the region through Monday. Another cold
front moves through the region on Tuesday. Weak high pressure
briefly builds in from the north on Wednesday, and then the
stationary boundary lifts north as a warm front late in the
week. Moisture from the remnants of Subtropical Storm Alberto
may affect the area late in the new week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
Showers and occasional thunderstorms continue to move southward
this morning along and just behind a back door front which has
moved into southern NJ and far northern DE. This activity should
continue to diminish into the early afternoon, as the front
continues southward and mid-level shortwave energy moves away,
and this trend is already underway in terms of decreasing rain-
fall rates.

The backdoor front should slow across Delmarva, as additional
short wave energy moves in from the west. This is expected to
initiate development of showers and thunderstorms this afternoon
over portions of southeastern PA and the eastern shore of MD,
and this activity will move slowly eastward. The front is
already becoming parallel to the mid-level flow this morning,
and the arrival of the shortwave will aid large scale lift of
an anomalously moist tropical air mass (Precipitable Water
values around 2.0 inches ~ 2 to 3 Standard Deviations above
normal), with slow cell movement/training expected to lead to
excessive rainfall rates this afternoon into tonight across
far southeastern PA, far southern NJ, the eastern shore of
MD, and Delaware. The majority of the guidance, particularly
the higher resolution models that did a good job with the
earlier event this morning across portions of PA and NJ are
strongly keying in on the potential for excessive rainfall
rates in a short period of time across this area, i.e., 3
inches within a few hours. In addition, there has been good
model consistency since yesterday, pointing to this potential.
Finally, the ground is still somewhat saturated from prior
rainfall, which is evident in Flash Flood Guidance.

After collaboration with surrounding offices, all of the above
increases forecaster confidence. Therefore, a Flash Flood
Watch has been issued for far southeastern PA, far southern NJ,
the eastern shore of MD, and Delaware through 4 AM Monday
Morning.

Otherwise, updated the forecast to account for temperature,
dew point, and wind trends, as the back door front moves
southward across the region.

Previous Discussion...
Complex Scenario evolving early this morning. In the upper
levels, shortwave energy associated with the main branch of the
jet stream is approaching from the west. Meanwhile, a deep feed
of tropical moisture continues to advect from the Gulf around a
broad high over the western Atlantic right into the area. At the
surface, an area of convergence is setting up across the
forecast area as the warm, humid S/SW flow is coming up against
a backdoor cold front beginning to enter the CWA from the N/NE.
Still a decent amount of instability around as well with the
northern edge of the instability over eastern PA into northern
NJ. The upshot of all this is that showers and storms have
started to become more widespread across the forecast area and
this trend should continue as we head into early this morning.
High res models continue to suggest that this convection may
tend to focus near the I-78 corridor for a time as the front
moves southward toward this area. Given that PWATs are near 2
inches and the impressive rain rates we've already seen with
some of these showers, very heavy rain will be possible and this
could produce rain amounts of 2-3+ inches within a few hours if
training sets up with storms repeatedly tracking over the same
area. As such, Flash Flood Watch for a large swath of the CWA
remains in effect until 14z...basically including all areas
except the far northern Counties, the Delmarva, and extreme
southern NJ. General trend over the next 6 to 12 hours should be
for the heavy rain threat to move south with the front

Previous Discussion...
Heading through Sunday morning, the aformentioned backdoor cold
front will slowly move southward, likely reaching as far as the
greater Philadelphia area by mid morning before stalling across
the Delmarva this afternoon. As this occurs, best chances for
widespread heavy showers and storms will move southward in
tandem with the front. That said, there may be a lull in
shower/storm activity for a time later this morning before
showers/storms regenerate in the afternoon as the next shortwave
approaches...likely most widespread and heaviest over SE PA far
southern NJ and the Delmarva by this time since this is where
the front will be stalling out. Very heavy rain with an
associated urban, small stream, and flash flood risk will
continue but will hold off on any extension in space or time to
the Flash Flood Watch to get better confidence on where exactly
the highest threat will be.

Tricky temperature forecast for today...clouds, showers will
limit temps from getting as hot as Saturday along with the
passage of the front. However main challenge will be just how
quickly low level cooler air behind the front is advected south
and whether weak heating and associated mixing will be able to
act much on the cooler airmass. Fairly widespread differences in
model guidance regarding temps but based on past performance in
these types of cases leaned a little more toward the cooler
guidance. As such, once the front goes by generally expect temps
to hover in the 60s to low 70s across central and northern
parts of the CWA. Meanwhile from around Philly south, generally
expect highs in the mid 70s to low 80s over the Delmarva.
However by this afternoon, temps around Philly will likely be
falling through the low 70s into the 60s by evening as the
cooler air advects south in earnest.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM MONDAY/...
Showers and storms, possibly quite heavy, will be ongoing this
evening, especially from around the Mason-Dixon line south
across the Delmarva near the front. The associated flood threat
discussed above will continue. In fact, shower/storms may be
ongoing across this area for a good part of the evening into the
overnight before the upper trough helping to drive them passes
off to the east overnight. In its wake, weak surface ridging
with the cooler airmass behind the front looks to try to take
hold over the area but with abundant low level moisture
lingering low stratus along with areas of mist and drizzle can
be expected. Lows by morning will drop into the mid 50s across
the far north through the southern Poconos into NW NJ with lows
generally in the upper 50s to mid 60s elsewhere, warmest across
the Delmarva.

Heading into Memorial Day, weak ridge should continue to persist
over the area with the front sitting off to the south. It's
possible a few spotty showers could drift north into the area
but otherwise the day should be mainly dry. However expect
abundant moisture to remain trapped below a low level inversion
so this should keep skies mainly cloudy through the day and keep
highs from getting above the 70s. It will still be fairly muggy
with high dew points over the Delmarva but not too bad farther
north.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
High pressure passes to the north on Tuesday, and then a back-
door cold front moves through the region late in the day. Ahead
of that boundary, though, a warm and humid airmass will be in
place. Highs top off in the mid and upper 80s with surface
dewpoints well in the 60s. Scattered convection looks to develop
over central PA and may move into southeast PA, western NJ, and
the Delmarva. Will follow guidance and cap PoPs at slight
chance. The moisture and the instability will be there for
convection over the area, it just remains to be seen if there is
enough of a trigger for storms to develop.

During this time, what is currently Subtropical Storm Alberto over
the eastern Gulf of Mexico will lift north and affect the eastern
Gulf Coast states. By Wednesday, the remnant low of this storm will
lift into the Midwest. This also pushes that stationary front north
as a warm front. High pressure over the Northeast moves offshore by
Wednesday night, and then that warm front will move into the
Delmarva and Delaware Valley.

Unsettled weather then possible for the end of the week and start of
the weekend as the remnant low of Alberto meanders over the
Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. Best chances for precip will be Thursday
through Friday. Given high levels of uncertainty, will generally run
with chance PoPs for next weekend. However, given that this low will
arrive as a warm and tropical airmass will be over the area with
dewpoints well in the 60s, there is the threat for heavy rain and
flooding during this time.

&&

.AVIATION /14Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas.

Today...Cigs lower into this morning with low MVFR generally
expected to predominate at at all sites by mid morning. There
will likely be fluctuations in cigs as the area will be affected
by on and off showers with the risk of storms through the day.
Periods of IFR will be possible, especially this morning, with
cigs possibly improving briefly this afternoon. Winds will shift
to E/NE this morning behind a backdoor front at generally
around 5-10 knots with a few higher gusts possible.

Tonight...IFR/LIFR CIGs as marine airmass overspreads the
region. Showers and thunderstorms may continue through the
evening, especially from PHL southward, before tapering off by
the overnight with areas mist/drizzle likely developing. NE
winds less than 10 kt.

Outlook...

Monday...Lingering IFR CIGs and showers in the morning. MVFR
CIGs in the afternoon. NE winds less than 10 kt become SE late.

Tuesday...Mostly VFR. Potential for afternoon SHRA/TSRA. W-NW
winds less than 10 kt.

Wednesday...Mostly VFR. Light East winds become SE 10-15 kt.
Stronger winds possible at KACY. Potential for SHRA/TSRA late in
the day and SHRA at night.

Thursday...SHRA/TSRA possible throughout the day. S winds 10-15
kt.

&&

.MARINE...
Today...A backdoor front will progress southward across the
coastal waters. Winds will shift from southwest to northeast
along with the frontal passage. The strongest northeast winds
are expected across the northern coastal waters of NJ
(ANZ450-51), where gusts to 25 kt are most likely to occur.
Seas in the ANZ450-51 may build to 5 ft in response to the
strengthening onshore flow. An SCA has been issued in
accordance with the frontal passage timing, as northeast winds
will rapidly increase behind the front, as follows: ANZ450 at
10Z and ANZ451 at 13Z.

Tonight...Any lingering SCA wind gusts will diminish in the
evening. NE winds 10-15 kt. Ocean seas 2-4 feet, and waves on DE
Bay 2 feet or less. VSBY restrictions in fog possible.

Outlook...

Monday through Thursday...Winds and seas below SCA levels.

Rip Currents...

A back door cold moving southward across the area today and
cause winds to shift from the south-southwest to the northeast.
While swell periods are expected to range from 5 to 7 seconds,
an onshore flow will develop along the NJ oceanfront during the
day, with wind gusts up to 20-30 mph. This will build waves in
the surf zone up to 3-5 feet. In particular, the rip current
risk will be greatest for the Monmouth and Ocean County beaches,
where the winds will be strongest (25-30 mph), waves in the
surf zone will be highest (4-5 ft), and where a northeast flow
yields more of an onshore component due to the orientation of
the coastline.

In terms of the risk for the development of dangerous rip
currents: a solid moderate risk of rip currents for the NJ
beaches, perhaps approaching high in Monmouth and Ocean County
counties. Further south, a low risk for the Delaware beaches.

Remember, a low risk of rip currents does not mean no risk!
Life threatening rip currents often still occur near jetties,
reefs, and piers. The vast majority of rip current victims swam
at unguarded beaches. ALWAYS SWIM IN THE PRESENCE OF A
LIFEGUARD.

Today will certainly not be a 'beach day' given cloudy skies
and the chance of showers, with cooler than average temperatures
in the mid-60s to mid-70s, along with northeast wind gusts
20-30 mph.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
The latest Total Water Level forecast issued early this morning
indicates spotty minor tidal flooding with this evenings's high tide
along the NJ and DE oceanfront and Delaware Bay, and with the
overnight high tide along the tidal portion of the lower Delaware
River. We currently do not anticipate issuance of Coastal Flood
Advisories but it will be closely monitored today (particularly with
how positive tidal anomalies grow in response to the northeasterly
wind surge this afternoon).

For the upper Delaware Bay and tidal Delaware River, there is a
potential for spotty minor tidal flooding again with the Monday
night high tide cycle though confidence in this happening is low at
this point.

&&

.EQUIPMENT...
The Sandy Hook NOS tide gauge (SDHN4) remains out of service.
CORMS is addressing the problem. There is currently no estimated
time for a return to service.

&&

.PHI WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
