Special Weather Statement, NWS Philadelphia/Mount Holly

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ
717 PM EDT Fri Jul 27 2018

.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front moves across our region tonight, then it slows just
offshore Saturday into Sunday. High pressure builds in for Sunday
before weakening northward on Monday. A warm front lifts northward
across our area during Tuesday, then a cold front arrives Wednesday
night into Thursday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/...
7 PM update...severe threat appears to be diminishing across NE
PA, so Carbon and Monroe counties have been removed from the
severe thunderstorm watch.

545 PM update...Flash Flood Watch was expanded eastward to
include the Delaware Valley and I-95 corridor in N DE, SE PA,
SW/C/NW NJ. It may be a little late in the event to expand the
watch with two Flash Flood Warnings already issued in this
expanded watch area, but with additional convection organizing
to our southwest over S/C PA and C MD (with this next round
looking to be even greater in coverage than the preceding one
this afternoon), the threat of flash flooding will persist
through the evening for a large part of the forecast area. The
severe risk will continue through at least sunset although it
looks like we will eventually transition toward more of a flood
risk vs severe this evening.

Previous Discussion...
Cold front continues to work its way slowly through the western
Pennsylvania. Expect to have rounds of thunderstorms until the
front arrives very late tonight. The severe wind and hail threat
should continue through this time, although we will likely see
it diminish slightly through the late evening. The other major
hazard has been heavy rain leading to flooding. The combination
of very heavy rain and training cells increases the flash flood
threat, especially across areas that received heavy rain in the
Saturday through Wednesday period.

Once the front reaches the shore late tonight, could see some
patchy fog develop, especially in areas that receive heavy rain
this afternoon and evening.

&&

.SHORT TERM / SATURDAY THROUGH 6 AM SATURDAY/...
A surface high will start to build east towards our region. As a
result, expect mostly dry conditions except near the shore where
the front may stall. Temperatures behind the front won't be
significantly lower than today, with highs mostly in the mid to
upper 80s across the region, with the exception of the

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Due to ongoing weather, few changes made to the extended
periods.

Summary...Turning noticeably less humid during the second half of
the weekend for much of the region, then the humidity and moisture
increases once again during next week as does the potential for some
locally heavy rain/flooding.

Synoptic Overview...A closed low across eastern Canada Saturday is
forecast to open up as it slides eastward into early next week.
Meanwhile, the flow sharpens again and the tailend of the trough
looks to close off near the Mid-Mississippi Valley during early next
week. As this occurs, a strengthening ridge is positioned off the
East Coast and the flow between these two systems will direct
tropical moisture northward. The western Atlantic ridge may be tough
to dislodge, therefore the trough from the west and an associated
surface cold front may be slow to arrive into our area during the
second half of next week. Given the flow aloft that is forecast,
locally heavy rain and flood threat will return during next week as
the precipitable water values reach or exceed 2 inches.

For Sunday...As a closed low shifts east-northeast across
eastern Canada it is forecast to gradually open up. The southern
extent of the trough therefore weakens or lifts out with time
across the Northeast. An associated surface cold front is
forecast to be shifting just off the Mid-Atlantic coast during
Saturday, however this may tend to stall near the coast or even
dissipate with time. There does look to be a window of
opportunity through about early Saturday afternoon, across the
eastern and southern areas especially, where a few showers or a
thunderstorm may occur before much drier air arrives. The
forecast soundings overall indicate quite a bit of drying occurs
Saturday afternoon above the mixed boundary layer, and this
would tend to erode the instability. Surface high pressure
builds in during Sunday and a much less humid airmass is
anticipated for much of our region. The flow will be lighter
especially on Sunday, therefore an afternoon sea/bay breeze
should develop.

For Monday and Tuesday...This time frame looks to become a little
more uncertain as the flow aloft starts to sharpen. A trough should
close off near the Mid-Mississippi Valley with time while a ridge
strengthens in the western Atlantic. This turns the flow more
southwesterly and the start of moisture advection gets underway.
There looks to be a surge in the moisture/theta-e advection Monday
night and Tuesday and this should be when a surface warm front lifts
northward well in advance of surface low pressure eventually
tracking up the Ohio Valley. The forecast challenge is how much
convection accompanies the moisture surge and surface warm front. It
appears that convective chances on Monday are greatest to our west,
however some showers and storms cannot be ruled out in our area
especially across the western and southern areas.

There looks to be a better chance on Tuesday with the advancement of
the warm front. Given the western Atlantic ridge building some
though, the highest chances for convection looks to be inland from
the coastal areas. Given the precipitable water values increasing to
around 2 inches through the time frame, convection will be capable
of producing locally heavy rain and this could lead to some
flooding. The flood threat will depend on the extent of the
convection since the recent heaviest rainfall occurred just to our
west.

For Wednesday and Thursday...A convectively active time frame is
quite the possibility. The guidance shows the western Atlantic ridge
holding firm and potentially even shifting westward some, while a
trough from the Great Lakes southwestward gradually shifts eastward.
Since the ridge farther east looks to hold, this trough may be
slowed as it tracks eastward along with an associated surface cold
front. This places our area in southwesterly flow along with a
continued high moisture content airmass. Looks like convection would
be mostly diurnally driven except when the cold front gets closer.
The steering flow may be such to support some training or
backbuilding convection, and therefore some rounds of locally heavy
rain is quite possible along with at least a local flood threat.

.AVIATION /23Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG,
KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas.

This afternoon and tonight ...MVFR/IFR in thunderstorms. Heavy
rain and gusty winds possible. Patchy fog with reduced
visibility possible after 06Z Saturday. Low confidence in the
timing of storms and if fog will affect any TAF sites.

Tomorrow...Mostly VFR conditions. Westerly winds 5 to 10 KT. Sea
breeze possible.

Outlook...
Saturday night and Sunday...VFR overall. Westerly winds 5-10
knots, becoming light and variable each night at most terminals.
A sea/bay breeze should develop during each afternoon with a
wind shift to the south-southeast, mainly at ACY and ILG and
especially Sunday afternoon. A few lingering showers or
thunderstorms possible through about early Saturday afternoon,
mainly south and east of PHL.

Monday through Wednesday...Mainly VFR. Some showers and
thunderstorms are possible especially during Tuesday. South to
southeast winds 10 knots or less during the day, then light and
variable each night at many terminals.

&&

.MARINE...
Although widespread conditions will be below SCA criteria,
showers and thunderstorms through late tonight will move across
the waters resulting in strong and gusty thunderstorm winds,
dangerous lightning strikes, and visibility reductions in heavy
rain. Please stay advised for any statements that may be
issued.

Outlook...
Saturday and Sunday...The conditions are expected to be below Small
Craft Advisory criteria. A sea/bay breeze especially Sunday
afternoon may result in some enhancement to the winds particularly
nearshore.

Monday through Wednesday...The conditions are expected to be
below Small Craft Advisory criteria. Winds may start variable
Monday before settling more from the south-southeast, then some
increase in the southerly winds is expected Tuesday.

Rip Currents...
After talking with local beach patrols, have upgraded the risk
of dangerous rip currents to high along the NJ shore through at
least this evening. For the Delaware Beaches, the risk remains
moderate through at least this evening.

For tomorrow, conditions may improve, though a moderate risk of
rip currents is possible.
