Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ
138 AM EDT Sun Jul 16 2023
.SYNOPSIS...
A large low pressure system over Canada will send a few waves
of low pressure across our region into early next week. Among
those, a weak cold front is expected to cross our region Sunday
into Sunday evening, with widespread precipitation expected
ahead of the front. Broad, weak high pressure will build in mid
week, before a trough approaches our region at the end of next
week.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/...
Saturday evening's thunderstorms were not widespread, but packed
a punch. We had some localized damaging wind gusts and some
serious flash flooding in parts of our region. The main focus of
those flood impacts stretched from Bucks County, across Mercer
County and into Middlesex County, where slow-moving
thunderstorms persisted. That activity has diminished overnight
while lifting northward out of our region.
After a brief lull in between a seemingly never-ending stream
of shortwaves passing by our region, a more potent wave is
quickly approaching our region with showers and embedded
thunderstorms with heavy downpours already tracking into the
western edges of our region in eastern Pennsylvania and Maryland
shortly after midnight. This is accompanied by stronger and
larger scale forcing, as well as a slug of deep sub- tropical
moisture. All indications from radar trends and hi-res model
guidance suggest this activity will continue to quickly expand
across areas particularly near and west of the Delaware Bay and
Delaware River through dawn. HREF probability-matched mean
6-hour QPF have most of that area seeing 1 to 1.5 inches of rain
through 8 AM, with locally near 3 inches. Areas near and north
of I-78 and particularly I-80 may be most at risk, not just due
to where the heavy rain is projected, but because these areas
have recently seen heavy rainfall, with saturated soils making
the region primed for flooding.
On Sunday, the weak low pressure area well to the NW early will
move across southern Canada and send a weak front across the
area. This front and the upper dynamics will act upon the
humid/hot airmass causing a widespread area of showers/tstms
across the region. Right now, it appears that there may be a
round of rains early in the morning, perhaps followed by a brief
lull in some areas. More widespread rains and tstms will
probably be around for the afternoon before ending from W to E
during the evening. The additional rains will promote possible
further flooding Sunday, so the Flood Watch will continue.
Categorical/likely pops will diminish back to chance pops late.
&&
.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
The next in the series of short wave troughs associated with the
larger mid and upper level low over the Hudson Bay region will
approach our region on Tuesday. Consequently, have a significant
chance for showers and storms across the region especially
during the day on Tuesday as mid an upper level forcing may be
coincident with peak day time heating. PWATs will again get
near 2 inches as steady south/southwesterly flow sets up, with
dewpoints expected to get into the 70s yet again.
At the surface, another weak cold front is expected to approach
and cross through the region on Tuesday night. It is uncertain
how much of an impact this will have on the evolution of showers
and storms across the region as it will be getting weaker as it
approaches the region and may not arrive until late Tuesday
night.
&&
.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
Updated the long term portion of the forecast early tonight as
to focus on the storm threat after midnight. The main concern
through this period is the timing of any short wave troughs
associated with the larger Hudson Bay low which could dig south
far enough to bring precipitation chances to our region. At this
point, the favored period is Thursday into Friday. Not only
is guidance continuing to depict a mid level short wave trough,
but a stronger cold front is possible on Friday. Otherwise, a
series of weak high pressures will largely be in place for the
middle part of the week. However, the subsidence associated with
these high pressures likely won't be quite strong enough to
completely suppress diurnal shower activity. Therefore, PoPs
remain in the 20 to 40 percent range for much of the area
throughout the long term.
Temperature wise, We should be near or slightly above normal
through much of the week, but there is increasing confidence
that the cold front depicted on Friday will bring a
significantly cooler air mass than we have seen lately. If this
trend continues, then temperatures slightly below normal are
possible by the end of the week.
&&
.AVIATION /05Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas...
Overnight...Mainly VFR at first. However, there will be
localized IFR ceilings around KMIV and KACY. Conditions lowering
to MVFR/IFR at all TAF sites with the arrival of showers and
thunderstorms from the west after 06Z. Variable wind 6 knots or
less. Medium confidence.
Sunday...MVFR/IFR with widespread showers and thunderstorms.
The rain will become heavy at times. South to southwest wind 5
to 10 knots.
Outlook...
Sunday Night...sub-VFR conditions likely with showers and
thunderstorms continuing into part of the overnight hours with
some patchy fog developing late. Winds light and variable. Low
confidence.
Monday through Monday Night...VFR. Westerly winds around 5-10
kt becoming south/southwesterly late in the day and overnight.
Moderate confidence.
Tuesday...VFR in the morning, with sub-VFR conditions possible
in the afternoon with showers and thunderstorms developing.
Southerly winds around 10 kt. Moderate confidence.
Wednesday...Mainly VFR. A few evening showers and thunderstorms
possible. Winds 5 to 10 kts. Moderate confidence.
Thursday...Mainly VFR. Restrictions possible with scattered
afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms. Southwest winds
around 5 to 10 kts. Moderate confidence.
&&
.MARINE...
While winds and waves will remain below SCA levels tonight and
Sunday, scattered tstms will have localized higher seas and
winds thru the period. Winds will mostly be south over the
waters with some onshore component close to the land. Speeds
will be mostly 10 to 15 knots tonight and Sunday. Gusts in the
20 to 25 kt range possible thru the period. Seas mostly 3 to 4
ft for the ocean and around 2 to 3 ft for Delaware Bay.
Outlook...
Sunday Night...No marine headlines anticipated. West/Southwest
winds around 5-10 kt. Seas 3 to 4 feet.
Monday through Monday Night...No marine headlines anticipated.
Northwest winds in the morning will become southerly in the
afternoon and evening, around 5-10 kt. Seas 3 to 4 feet.
Tuesday through Thursday...Winds and seas should stay below SCA
criteria.
Rip Currents...
A southerly wind 10 to 15 MPH is anticipated for Sunday with
breaking waves around 2 to 3 feet and a medium period east to
southeast swell. The expected conditions will likely result in a
MODERATE risk of dangerous rip currents along the coasts of
Delaware and New Jersey at that time.
A northwest to west wind 5 to 10 MPH on Monday morning is
forecast to become southerly in the afternoon. Breaking waves
should be 2 to 3 feet with a medium period east to southeast
swell. However, the guidance also indicates the arrival of an
underlying long period swell from the east and southeast which
could enhance the rip current risk. As a result, we will again
carry a MODERATE risk for Monday.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
A Flood Watch is in effect for all of our PA and NJ counties,
with New Castle County, DE included as well. A widespread 1 to 2
inches of rain is expected for most of the region, with some
locations in northern NJ and eastern PA expected to see 2 to 2.5
inches of rain. Locally higher amounts between 3 to 5 inches
are possible. Taking into account antecedent conditions, it will
not take much for flash flooding to occur, especially in
northern NJ and eastern PA. There remains potential for main-
steam river flooding to occur due to excessive runoff. Some
rivers, primarily in northern NJ, are already running high.
