Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ
616 AM EDT Fri Aug 20 2021
.SYNOPSIS...
A broad mid and upper level trough will remain near our region
through the weekend. This weekend, Tropical Cyclone Henri is
expected to turn northward and then northeastward, but should stay
off our coast as it approaches the southern New England coast. A
cold front may approach our region Wednesday into Thursday.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
6 AM Update...
No changes with this update with the forecast in good shape.
Heavier rain is beginning to fill in over parts of Delmarva and
far southern New Jersey. Previous discussion follows...
Broad mid level troughing remains in place to our west today.
Meanwhile, a weak surface front is analyzed by WPC as running from
southwest to northeast across portions of Delmarva and eastern New
Jersey early this morning. Moisture content also remains high across
the area, with dew points in the upper 60s to mid 70s and PWAT
values on either side of 2 inches. Put this all together, and it is
a recipe for unsettled conditions. Showers, along with some embedded
thunder, have overspread portions of the area this morning. One
broken band of showers over east-central Pennsylvania may bring some
rain to many of our Pennsylvania and New Jersey counties through
this morning, though it should remain mostly light in intensity. The
better prospects for heavier rain remain across Delmarva and into
far southern New Jersey where moisture and lift will be better. We
have seen some heavier downpours there overnight, and additional
rounds of showers and embedded thunder are expected through early
this afternoon, including pockets of heavy rain. A Flash Flood Watch
remains in effect for several of our Delmarva counties through early
this afternoon. The overall flash flood threat looks fairly limited
at the moment, but we've seen this type of environment produce very
efficient rainfall rates over portions of the area in recent days,
so any heavier and especially any training cells will have to be
watched.
By mid afternoon, the initial rounds of showers and storms will
largely move offshore. With the trough to our west and the
development of some modest diurnal instability, an additional pop-up
shower or isolated thunderstorm will remain possible through the
later afternoon and evening. This activity will be more limited in
coverage, however, and much of the afternoon will likely end up dry.
There will remain a good deal of cloud cover today, which will keep
the instability in check. The lingering clouds combined with the
morning showers and storms will also hold high temperatures below
normal today, in the low to mid 80s, but with continued high
humidity.
Heading into the overnight, a spotty, weakly forced shower remains
possible through most of the night as we remain in a very humid air
mass. However, most indications are that shower coverage during the
overnight should be limited, and have covered it with slgt chc and
low end chc PoPs. With low dew point depressions and calm winds,
patchy fog development is also possible, though some lingering
higher level clouds may limit fog formation. It will be another mild
night, with lows in the upper 60s and low 70s.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
The main concern this weekend will be the potential for heavy rain.
Through the weekend, our region should be sandwiched between the mid
and upper level low just to our southwest, and the northward
progressing TC Henri to our east. Guidance is in relatively good
agreement that direct wind impacts with Henri will stay off our
coast. Henri's main precipitation shield should also stay off the
coast. However, depending on how Henri interacts with the broad
mid/upper level trough, a second area of precipitation will be
possible in between these two features especially Saturday into
Saturday night. If this were to happen, our region would be in a
prime location for this to occur.
Precipitable water values will remain well above normal, near or
above 2 inches on Saturday. It seems unlikely that there will be any
dry layers given southeasterly flow almost through the entirety of
the troposphere. Also, there should be a deep warm cloud layer (not
surprising given the time of year and tropical influence). Mean flow
is relatively slow (less than 20 kt), so storm motions could be
relatively slow. All of these factors increase the threat for heavy
rain. Additionally, antecedent conditions for much of our region
remain quite wet thanks to the remnants of TC Fred on Thursday.
All that to say that if this scenario were to develop, there is a
risk for heavy rain and flash flooding Saturday into Saturday
evening. However, there is a big if as to will this even develop as
this will be highly dependent on the ultimate track of Henri. For
now, have mentioned the potential of heavy rain in the forecast, but
will hold off on a flash flood watch until there is more confidence
if this will develop.
Additional rain is possible on Sunday, but by this point, our region
will not be in the prime location for synoptic scale lift as the mid
and upper level trough axis should be near our coast.
Despite likely persistent cloud cover, temperatures should be near
or even slightly above normal with highs mostly in the 80s, and
lows in the upper 60s to lower 70s.
&&
.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Another chance for showers and storms on Monday as the mid and upper
level trough starts to fill but remains near our region. By Tuesday
however, the mid and upper level pattern finally starts to
transition to a more zonal pattern. This should (finally) result in
a dry day on Tuesday. After that, attention turns to a weak cold
front approaching from the northwest. With the continued mostly
zonal flow pattern aloft, it is uncertain how far south this front
will progress. For now, have stayed close to the previous forecast
and a blend of guidance from Wednesday onward.
&&
.AVIATION /10Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG,
KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas.
Through 12z... Mainly VFR. A possible exception is for southern
portions of the area including near MIV and ACY where CIGs or VSBYs
may lower to MVFR due to areas of showers and tstms. Most other
terminals will see lowering CIGs and potentially showers, but should
stay VFR. Winds light and variable or calm. Moderate confidence.
Today... Near and north of PHL, mainly VFR. Showers and an isolated
tstm are possible through early afternoon, with just a slight chance
of an additional pop up shower or storm later this afternoon. South
of PHL, a better chance for MVFR or brief IFR conditions with lower
clouds and areas of heavier showers and tstms, especially through
early afternoon. Cannot rule out a brief period or two of MVFR at
PHL itself. All terminals should turn VFR by mid to late afternoon.
Winds today will probably be best described as light and variable
overall. But there should be a general trend for light west or
northwest flow to develop at most of the terminals, with a light sea
breeze bringing more southerly flow to coastal areas by late
afternoon and evening. Moderate confidence.
Tonight... Initially, mainly VFR. The main concern overnight will be
the potential for fog or low stratus development. This could lead to
restrictions by the second half of the night, but it remains
uncertain how prevalent this will be. Winds light and variable or
calm. Moderate confidence.
Outlook...
Saturday and Sunday...There is a chance for MVFR or even IFR
conditions through this period as there will be multiple chances for
showers and thunderstorms with heavy rain through this period. There
is also a smaller chance for fog to develop on Sunday night. Winds
will be predominantly Northeasterly and easterly on Saturday at 5 to
15 kt, becoming northwesterly 5 to 15 kt on Sunday. Low confidence
especially on how widespread the showers and storms will be.
Monday...Predominantly VFR conditions, though there is another
chance for showers and thunderstorms, mostly Monday afternoon which
could result in temporary MVFR conditions. Westerly and
northwesterly winds around 5 kt. Moderate confidence.
Tuesday...VFR conditions expected. Light (less than 5kt)
northwesterly winds likely. Moderate confidence.
&&
.MARINE...
Through tonight... Sub-SCA conditions are expected. Winds mostly
westerly today then more southerly or southeasterly this evening and
tonight, but speeds of only 5 to 10 kt are expected and winds may be
light and variable at times. Seas 3 to 4 ft. A chance of showers and
tstms especially over the coastal waters of southern New Jersey,
Delaware, and Delaware Bay.
Outlook...
Saturday and Sunday...At least SCA conditions with rough seas of 6
to 8 ft are expected for much of this period. There is a small
chance for tropical storm force winds on the NJ Atlantic coastal
waters, but this will be highly dependent on the track of Henri and
at this point, it appears more likely that the tropical storm force
winds will stay east of our coastal waters.
Sunday night through Tuesday...Once seas subside below 5 ft either
Sunday night or Monday, winds and seas should stay below SCA
criteria.
Rip Currents...
Long period swells associated with Tropical Storm Henri will bring a
building threat for the development of dangerous rip currents to the
coasts of Delaware and New Jersey through the weekend.
The threat will begin to increase from south to north today. As a
result, we are forecasting a high risk for the development of
dangerous rip currents for the beaches of Sussex County in Delaware,
and Cape May County, Atlantic County, and Ocean County in New
Jersey. For coastal Monmouth County, the surf will be a little
lower, so the risk there has been maintained as moderate.
For the entirety of the weekend, a high risk for the development of
rip currents will exist for all of the local ocean-facing beaches.
Offshore tropical cyclones such as Henri are notorious for producing
some of the most dangerous rip currents our region faces. Swimming
is strongly discouraged this weekend due to the likely presence of
dangerous, life threatening rip currents.
Conditions should improve early in the new week as the storm weakens
and moves into the Gulf of Maine.
&&
.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
The evening high tides associated with the full moon will be
particularly high on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Meanwhile,
long period swells from Tropical Storm Henri will be reaching
our coast. As a result, there may be some minor tidal flooding
along the coasts of Delaware and New Jersey, along Delaware Bay
and on the tidal Delaware River over the weekend, mainly in the
evening and during the overnight hours.
