The local office's own words before this special weather statement 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 special weather statement went out at Sep 26, 8:27 PM EDT, 8 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Sep 26, 8:27 PM EDT, 8 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ 827 PM EDT Wed Sep 26 2018 .SYNOPSIS... A cold front will cross the Middle Atlantic region tonight and then stall south of the area. Weak high pressure will build in Thursday, but then a low pressure system will move along the stalled front Thursday night and Friday. More high pressure will arrive later Friday and remain into the weekend. Another disturbance will move towards the area early next week. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/... 820 PM Update...Line of showers and thunderstorms currently closing in on the I-95 corridor. Strongest storms appear to be over extreme SE PA at the moment but overall the line appears to be showing a weakening trend...especially farther north and east toward northern NJ. We have cancelled the Severe Thunderstorm Watch for areas behind the line over Berks, Lehigh, Carbon, and Monroe Counties. 500 PM Update...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch has now been issued until 11 PM for our eastern PA counties, much of our New Jersey zones excluding the Atlantic coastal Counties, and our Delmarva Counties excluding Sussex County Delaware. Expect that line of storms currently organizing over portions of central PA will be entering our County Warning Area within the next hour or two. With axis of max instability situated right over the area (ML CAPES 1500-2000 j/kg), storms will have the potential to produce damaging wind gusts. Previous Discussion...A cold front continues to push eastward across central Pennsylvania and will make its way into our eastern Pennsylvania areas late this afternoon/early this evening. Clouds have broken out across much of our area, which as allowed for a fair amount of solar insolation and temperatures to rise. This has increased instability across our area, with CAPE values upward of 1,500-2,00 J/kg. The strongest shear remains mostly north of our area, however bulk shear does reach 30-40 knots across northeast Pennsylvania and northern New Jersey where the strongest mid level winds are across our area, and 25-30 knots near southeast Pennsylvania, central/southern New Jersey, and northern Delaware and Maryland. The combination of instability and shear will lead to the greatest threat for severe weather across northeast Pennsylvania and northern New Jersey, although there is still a risk farther south. SPC has basically from the I-95 corridor northward outlined in a Slight Risk for severe thunderstorms this afternoon and evening. The main threat would be damaging winds as the freezing level and web bulb zero level are fairly high. Another concern is for heavy rainfall with these showers and thunderstorms. PW values reach 2.00-2.25 inches across the area this afternoon and evening. The storms are expected to have a decent storm motion as they approach the area. However, as the front moves into the area, it may begin slowing down, in turn slowing the progression of the showers and thunderstorms. If any storms become slow moving and/or train over the same area, flooding would become a concern. The front will continue to push south of the area overnight, and most showers will move to our south or dissipate. However, the front is forecast to stall to our south, and additional short wave/vorticity impulses may lift across the southern Delmarva overnight and through daybreak, which could keep some showers across southern Delware, southern Maryland, and southern New Jersey. && .SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/... The cold front will remain stalled out to our south during the day Thursday. However, enhanced lift and moisture will continue to lift north of the front as several short wave/vorticity impulses move across the area in the southwest flow aloft. This will likely continue to bring showers to a portion of our area, especially southern New Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland. Areas farther north will likely not see much precipitation during the day Thursday, at least until very late in the day as high pressure builds to our north with our northern areas weakly being under its influence. && .LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... Thursday night thru Friday...The front from the near/short term parts of the forecast gets hung up across the S/E areas Thu/Fri and weak low pressure will move along it. A familiar pattern ! The operational models are all showing a renewal of rain for the area with the feature, but the details of just how much differ. The 12Z GFS/GEM/ECMWF models offer mostly 1/4 to 1 inch across our area with the highest totals back across SE PA. The 12Z NAM is much higher with 2.0 to 2.5 inches across a stripe from KMQS up thru KSMQ and into NE NJ. The recent rains have caused flash flood guidance to be rather low, so the NAM's rains would force a FFA to be considered, but since I'm not fully buying the higher amounts now, I will not issue one, but it may have to be considered later if the models begin to trend towards the NAM amounts. Friday night...The models are showing improvement for Friday night with no QPF and varying amounts of drier air at the lower levels. The NAM shows more low clouds with slow improvement indicated while the GFS have clear to partly cloudy conditions. Patchy fog is expected across the rural areas. Saturday and beyond...Chose to focus more attention on the beginning part of the long term with all the changes in that period. The weekend at this point still looks fair with high pressure building in from Canada and a much drier air mass expected to arrive across our area. Temperatures look seasonable with mostly 70s for highs and 50s for overnight lows. Beyond that, slight chc or low chc pops for Tue/Wed with another cold front and low pressure system expected to approach from the west. Details are far from certain at this time. && .AVIATION /01Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas. Tonight...Mostly VFR conditions are across the TAF sites this afternoon. An area of showers and thunderstorms remains in the forecast for this evening, and we have adjusted the timing of the thunderstorms and included IFR visibilities with the thunderstorm TEMPO group. We expect them to be near ABE/RDG by 22z-01z, ILG/PHL/PNE/TTN by 00z-03z, and ACY/MIV by 00z-04z. ABE/RDG/TTN are expected to be VFR through the remainder of the night once the showers and thunderstorms move through. However, the remainder of the TAF sites may lower to MVFR overnight, with ACY and MIV having the greater probability of remaining MVFR with additional showers overnight. Winds this afternoon will be south-southwest 5-10 knots, then become northwest behind the cold front 5-10 knots, then north late in the night. Thursday...MVFR conditions will likely remain through the day for ACY and MIV. The remainder of the TAF sites are a little uncertain, but may improve to VFR during the morning. Showers are most likely across southern New Jersey and southern Delaware and Maryland during the day Thursday. Winds will become northeast during the day Thursday around 5-10 knots. Outlook... Thursday night...Lowering CIGS and possible VSBY restrictions toward dawn with rain arriving across the area. Friday...Restrictions to CIGS and VSBY possible with rains across the area. MVFR expected with IFR possible. Friday night...Slow improvement to CIGS/VSBYS. Patchy fog. Saturday thru Monday...Mostly VFR expected. && .MARINE... Small Craft Advisory remains in effect through Thursday. Winds remain below 25 knots this afternoon and evening, but seas remain 5- 6 feet. Winds may increase for a time behind a cold front tonight. Even though winds diminish on Thursday, seas will remain elevated. Rip currents... A moderate risk for the development of dangerous rip currents is expected the rest of today and tonight. With an increasing onshore flow on Thursday, the rip current risk will likely be at least moderate, but may increase to high. Outlook... We extended the SCA flag into Thursday night with seas lingering at or just above 5 ft. This could be the last extension since seas will be closer to 3 to 4 ft for Friday and into the weekend. Rain and fog will be across the waters Thu night and into Friday, but then fair weather in expected Fri night and into the weekend. && .EQUIPMENT... KDIX radar remains offline due to an equipment failure. Technicians have been working on it all day, but are now awaiting for parts to be delivered before the radar can be repaired. It appears the radar will be down tonight. Meanwhile, KDOX also remains offline due to an equipment failure. Surrounding radars include KOKX, KBGM, KCCX, KLWX, and KAKQ. Thank you for your patience with this situation. && .PHI WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... PA...None. NJ...None. DE...None. MD...None.
