Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ
852 PM EDT Wed Sep 11 2019

.SYNOPSIS...
Weak low pressure will pass well to our north tonight. A cold
front will sink slowly southward through Thursday then high
pressure will return briefly through Friday. Another cold front
will approach the region by late Saturday. Strong high pressure
will build early in the week and dominate across the Mid-
Atlantic and Northeastern US through the end of next week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
Earlier convection that affected Berks county is now in a
weakened state across Chester and Delaware counties. A warning
was issued earlier when the storm was near Reading with a decent
core aloft. Now just one stronger cell is near Glenmoore PA with
some gusty winds, frequent lightning and downpours. Other showers
and a few tstms are across the southern Poconos and near Kent County,
MD. This activity is slowly weakening with the loss of daytime
heating however.

Overnight, a partly to mostly cloudy sky is expected. Conditions
will remain warm and muggy with lows mostly in the upper 60s
and lower 70s. The wind should become light and variable. Some
fog will form across the areas that received rains earlier.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/...
Thursday will feature a cold front dropping through our region from
the north. The boundary is expected to be approaching the Poconos
and northern New Jersey around daybreak. It should reach
southeastern Pennsylvania and southern New Jersey around midday, and
northeastern Maryland and southern Delaware by evening.

We will continue to mention a chance of showers and thunderstorms
for Thursday. Conditions should begin to stabilize gradually from
northeast to southwest across our region in the wake of the front
during the afternoon.

Thursday's high temperature forecast is a bit of a challenge due to
the expected cloud cover and the timing of the cold front. While
highs in the upper 80s seem likely for northeastern Maryland and
Delaware, we'll favor the lower and middle 80s for much of
southeastern Pennsylvania and southern New Jersey, and the 70s in
our northern counties.

A light and variable wind should settle into the northeast around 10
MPH after the cold front passes.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
The main challenges for the medium-range forecast regard
precipitation chances with a weakening system moving into the
area this weekend.

Thursday's cold front should be far enough south on Friday for
colder air to filter in from the north/northeast. Clouds will likely
stick around, however, as onshore flow increases. With time, dry
advection from building high pressure to the north should reduce
cloudiness by Saturday. Expect temperatures to be 10-15 degrees
colder on Friday, with a nice rebound for Saturday as low-level flow
becomes more southerly.

The next system moves into the area Saturday and Saturday night, but
it faces a rather hostile environment in the eastern U.S. As a
fairly vigorous shortwave trough lifts northeastward into eastern
Canada on Saturday, a southward-extending cold front will impinge
upon downstream ridging. The strongest large-scale lift will remain
well north of the area, and the front will weaken and slow in
forward movement considerably as it approaches the northern Mid-
Atlantic. Frontal convergence/lift look to be fairly weak, and
midlevel lapse rates appear rather poor (owing to residual warmth
from the aforementioned downstream ridging). Models have trended
noticeably drier the past few cycles, and have kept PoPs low during
this period.

Thereafter, high pressure should build into the region, with a
lengthy warm and dry period expected. The large-scale pattern will
feature high-amplitude ridging in much of the central/eastern U.S.
by early next week, aided by a deep longwave trough entering the
western U.S. and a tropical wave/system lifting northwest into the
vicinity of the Gulf Coast. Although the ridging will likely
dominate for the early part of next week (high confidence), its
evolution thereafter will be strongly influenced by these two
systems. Thus, what transpires later next week is quite unclear
(given poor predictability at these time ranges) and subject to a
considerable amount of uncertainty for the next several model cycles.

&&

.AVIATION /01Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG,
KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas.

Overnight...Mainly VFR with local MVFR ceilings and visibility
values. Variable wind 6 knots or less.

Thursday...Mainly VFR in the morning, with MVFR ceilings moving down
from the northeast in the afternoon. A chance of showers and
thunderstorms with brief periods of MVFR/IFR. Variable wind 6 knots
or less becoming northeast around 10 knots.

OUTLOOK...
Thursday night...Restrictions possible with a chance of showers
and storms as well as the development of lower clouds as
surface flow becomes more easterly with time. North winds
becoming northeast 5 to 15 kt. Low confidence.

Friday and Friday night...Sub-VFR conditions possible with
east-northeast winds 5 to 15 kt (stronger near the coast with
higher gusts) becoming light southeasterly overnight. Very low
confidence.

Saturday and Saturday night...Mainly VFR, though brief
restrictions may occur if showers/storms develop. Confidence is
low on if/where convection occurs. South to southwest winds 5 to
15 kt.

Sunday and Sunday night...Mainly VFR with light west winds.
Moderate confidence.

&&

.MARINE...
A cold front is forecast to drop southward across the coastal waters
of New Jersey and Delaware on Thursday. A southwest wind 10 to 15
knots into tonight should diminish to 5 to 10 knots for Thursday
morning before becoming northeast 10 to 15 knots in the afternoon.
Waves on our ocean waters will range from 2 to 4 feet with waves on
Delaware Bay at 2 feet or less.

OUTLOOK...
Thursday...Sub-advisory winds/seas anticipated. A chance of
showers and storms.

Thursday night through Friday night...Advisory winds/seas are
expected, with east-northeast winds increasing to 15 to 25 kt
with gusts up to 30 kts. Seas may build to 5 to 7 feet by
Friday. Showers/storms possible Thursday night and Friday.

Saturday...Winds should be below advisory thresholds, but seas
may linger near 5 feet through the day.

Saturday night through Sunday night...Sub-advisory winds/seas
expected. A slight chance of showers Saturday night into early
Sunday.

RIP CURRENTS...
An underlying 10 to 11 second swell from the east and southeast
should maintain a moderate risk for the development of dangerous rip
currents through Thursday. A developing northeast wind on Thursday
afternoon will likely contribute to the moderate risk.
