Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ
100 PM EST Sat Jan 25 2020

.SYNOPSIS...
Low pressure and an associated cold front will cross the Middle
Altantic region today. The low will further deepen as it moves
across New England tonight and into Sunday. High pressure will
then begin to build across the area early next week. A weak low
will pass well south of the area Tuesday. The next storm will
affect the area towards the end of the week and into early next
weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
Weak low pressure was located in southwestern New Jersey around
midday. The low will progress to the northeast, across southern
New Jersey and off the coast this afternoon.

Meanwhile, a middle level low was drifting across southeastern
Michigan. The pattern was drawing a significant amount of
moisture northward from the Caribbean and the Atlantic waters
off the Southeast Coast. A band of heavy rain extended up into
central and northern New Jersey around midday.

The back edge of the rain will continue to lift northeastward
this afternoon, and it is expected to be out of New Jersey
before sunset.

Temperatures have risen above the freezing mark in the elevated
terrain of the Pocono Region and far northern New Jersey. As a
result, freezing rain is no longer a concern there.

Temperatures will continue to range from the 30s in our
northern counties to the 50s in the south. The wind is expected
to settle into the west around 10 mph.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM SUNDAY/...
Tonight... While a spotty rain or snow shower will be possible
across the far north on developing westerly flow, the vast
majority of tonight will be dry as today's storm pulls away to
the north. Cooler air will start to bleed into the region, but
only gradually as lows will only drop into the low 30s for most.

Sunday... Westerly flow continues on Sunday as both surface and
upper level areas of low pressure move further north. Should be
a mainly dry day but probably plenty of stratocumulus
especially to the northwest with steep low level lapse rates. A
sprinkle or flurry is possible across the Poconos and northern
NJ. Otherwise, Sunday looks like a rather nice day. Despite the
westerly flow there is no cold air to the northwest to tap into
(a common theme this winter) so highs will end up mostly a few
degrees above average: upper 30s and low 40s to the north with
mid to upper 40s further south. The pressure gradient behind the
departing low is not strong, and wind gusts Sunday should only
reach 20-25mph.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
The long term forecast was not edited overnight due to focus on
near term concerns. Looks to be a mainly quiet and high
pressure dominated week until perhaps the very end of the week
or next weekend, but very low confidence on any potential
storminess for that period. The previous long term discussion is
included below.

Fairly quiet weather expected as low pressure continues to move
away over Atlantic Canada while high pressure will gradually
build down from the north and west with time. This will keep the
region predominately in a dry W/NW flow through most of next
week. Most days should feature a good deal of sunshine though
some shortwaves riding through the upper level flow will bring
some cloudier periods from time to time. Temperatures look to
generally be near to a little above late January averages. Early
indications are that the next storm system could impact the
area next weekend but it's too early to forecast any specifics
with this system.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas.

This afternoon...IFR ceilings gradually improving to MVFR or
VFR as rain continues to lift to the northeast of our region.
The wind should settle into the west around 10 knots. Medium
confidence.

Tonight...MVFR improving to VFR this evening. VFR is expected
overnight. Winds will remain west to northwest 5 to 10 knots.
Medium confidence.

Sunday...VFR ceilings. West wind increasing around 10 knots
with gusts near 20 knots. High confidence.

Outlook...

Sunday night-Tuesday...Mainly VFR, though cigs could
occasionally be MVFR at times due to stratus. Winds remain
mainly west to northwest and may gust 15-20 knots at times
through Tuesday. Moderate confidence.

Wednesday...Mainly VFR with NW winds 5-10 knots.

&&

.MARINE...
A Small Craft Advisory is now in effect on all waters. For the
ocean waters, seas will run 6 to 9 ft through tonight. Seas
should linger around 5 ft through the day Sunday, so the SCA was
extended through Sunday afternoon. East-southeasterly winds
could gust to 30 kt today. There is the potential for a couple
of isolated gale force gusts, but not expecting them to be
widespread or long lasting enough to warrant a Gale Warning. For
the Delaware Bay, the SCA will expire at noon today as winds
diminish. Sub-SCA conditions should continue through Sunday on
the Bay, though westerly winds on Sunday could gust to 20 kt.

Outlook...

Sunday night...Winds and waves are likely to remain above
advisory levels into the evening before diminishing overnight.

Monday-Wednesday...Winds and waves should remain mainly below
advisory levels through this period though winds could
occasionally gust to near or just over 20 knots at times.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
High tide has now passed at all tide gauges, and water levels
will continue to subside. Therefore, the coastal flood advisory
has been cancelled for the remainder of the area.

&&

.PHI WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
PA...None.
NJ...None.
DE...None.
MD...None.
MARINE...Small Craft Advisory until 6 PM EST Sunday for ANZ450>455.
