Area forecast discussion, May 16, 6:35 PM EDT, 4 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ 635 PM EDT Mon May 16 2022 .SYNOPSIS... A strong cold front will sweep across the Mid Atlantic today bringing the threat of severe weather to the region. High pressure will build in on Tuesday. A weak low may cross the region on Thursday along a warm front. High pressure will build across the western Atlantic Friday and into next weekend. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/... ***Severe Thunderstorm Watch #229 and Severe Thunderstorm Watch #230 in Effect through 8 PM*** Conditions continue to trend more optimistically this afternoon, though a line of strong thunderstorms is moving into the I-95 corridor. There has been quite a bit of hail with these thunderstorms, but nothing quite to severe one-inch size yet. The exception likely being a severe-warned cell in southern Delaware. Will let the watches ride a little longer as there is decent instability remaining, but the outflow has surged well ahead of the main line of storms in southeastern Pennsylvania and anvil debris from a strong cell that moved across the DC area and onto the Eastern Shore of Maryland. Several waves of strong to severe thunderstorms will affect the area this afternoon into this evening. The first area associated with an initial short wave is moving across portions of eastern Pennsylvania this afternoon, and will continue to move to the east across the rest of eastern Pennsylvania and portions of central and northern New Jersey through the afternoon hours. CAPE values have increased to 1000-2000 J/kg, while shear is around 35-45 knots. While DCAPE values are not overly high, less than 500 J/kg, damaging winds are likely with any severe storm, and with freezing levels/wet-bulb zero heights around 10,000 feet and ample CAPE above the freezing level, severe hail will also be possible with some storms. As this activity continues to progress eastward, another short wave/vorticity impulse will approach the area from the west and the cold front moves into the area and likely enhance shower and thunderstorm activity across the southern half of the area later this afternoon into this evening. The same is true as farther north, with CAPE values at least 1000-2000 J/kg, while shear around 35-45 knots, and eventhough DCAPE values are not overly high, less than 500 J/kg, damaging winds are likely with any severe storm. Freezing levels/wet-bulb zero heights are around 10,000 feet here as well with ample CAPE above the freezing level, severe hail will also be possible with some storms. Another concern with the showers and thunderstorms will be the potential for heavy rainfall. PW values are around 1.5 inches, and if any storms train, a few isolated areas of flash flooding could be possible. However, since storms will mostly be moving at a fast enough easterly speed, widespread flash flooding is not expected. Mainly ponding on roadways and poor drainage areas that fill in heavy rainfall is expected. The showers and thunderstorms are expected to move offshore by sunset and the rest of the overnight will be dry behind the cold front. Winds will remain a little gusty for a few hours behind the front for some areas, but wind gusts will diminish overnight. On Tuesday, temperatures are forecast to be near or slightly above normal for most places. A dry forecast is expected, although some afternoon clouds are expected across the area. Winds will become gusty by the mid to late morning hours and continue into the afternoon. Wind gusts could reach 20 to 30 mph for some areas. && .SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/... Tuesday night, surface high pressure will approach from the west with winds rapidly weakening as the PBL decouples. Expect low temperatures in the mid 40s to lower 50s across the area. Surface high pressure will move overhead Wednesday with 850 MB temperatures lowering to around 6 degrees C. This will make Wednesday the coolest day of the work week with highs mainly in the upper 60s to low 70s. Clouds will be increasing though as a shortwave rapidly approaches from the west. Wednesday night, a warm front will approach the region from the southwest with a weak surface low forming along the baroclinic zone. Showers will then move in from the west Wednesday night. Overall, the track of the surface low appears to be further north than previously forecast. Expect lows mainly in the 50s Wednesday night/ Thursday morning. && .LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... Most of the overall synoptic pattern in the extended is in rather good agreement with the GEFS, GEPS, and EPS this morning. The below normal mid-level heights of Tuesday and Wednesday will slowly transition to above normal by Friday/ Saturday as the mid-level ridge amplifies over the western Atlantic. Sunday into Monday of next week, the sub-tropical ridge will begin to break down ushering in a break from the very warm temperatures of Saturday. There does, however, remain substantial variability in the details of how the evolution of the wave pattern occurs, and the degree of amplification. During the day Thursday, the surface warm front will lift north across the region with showers ongoing initially. As the wave exits the coast, a brief break in the precipitation is expected (on the subsident side of the shortwave). However, timing of the wave remains rather important here though, as a slower progression would favor another round of showers and thunderstorms developing Thursday afternoon due to day time heating. Either way, Thursday doesn't look like a complete washout, but clouds will be rather widespread with dewpoints rapidly climbing back towards 60 degrees. By Friday, temperatures will start to climb with highs in the mid 80s expected. Dewpoints will also be right back in the mid 60s. The uptick in humidity will be noticeable. On Saturday, the amplification of the mid-level ridge will take shape with heights rapidly rising across the region. Expect high temperatures in the low 90s across the urban corridor. A surface cold front will then cross the region Sunday with temperatures falling back towards normal for this time of year. && .AVIATION /00Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/... The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas. A line of strong thunderstorms is moving closer to the Philly terminals. Some small hail and wind gusts to 30 knots are possible from the west. A brief hour of MVFR to IFR as the line moves over then quickly returning to VFR. The line will move offshore by 01Z. Outlook... Tuesday night...VFR. West winds 5 to 15 kts. High confidence. Wednesday...VFR. Northwest winds winds 5 to 15 kts with gusts up to 20 kts. High confidence. Wednesday night and Thursday...Clouds increasing from the west. VFR initially then slowly lowering to MVFR/ IFR as showers spread over the region. Southerly winds backing from the southeast 5 to 10 kts. A slow recovery to VFR possible Thursday afternoon. Moderate confidence on overall pattern, but low confidence on where exactly the showers set up. Friday...Mainly VFR. South winds 5 to 15 kts. Moderate confidence. && .MARINE... Late this afternoon through Tonight...Occasional gusts around 25 knots will continue this afternoon into this evening ahead of an approaching cold front. Showers and thunderstorms will accompany this front, which could produce winds in excess of 34 knots. Once the thunderstorms move through the area, wind gusts will diminish overnight. Tuesday...Winds are expected to remain below advisory levels as an inversion should keep winds 20 knots or less. Outlook... Tuesday night...Sub-SCA conditions. West winds around 15 kts gusting up to 20 kts. Seas 3 to 4 feet. Wednesday through Friday...Winds and seas are expected to remain below SCA criteria. && .PHI WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... PA...None.
