Area forecast discussion, Jul 19, 2:47 AM EDT, 6 hours 9 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ 247 AM EDT Wed Jul 19 2023 .SYNOPSIS... A front will remain stalled across the area into Wednesday. This front will move back to the north as a warm front Thursday night before a stronger cold front moves through the region on Friday. High pressure will build in from the west over the weekend before weakening early next week. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... Latest analysis currently shows a frontal boundary slipping southeastward across northern New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania. The front extends west-southwest into the Ohio Valley, where a weak wave of low pressure is riding eastward along the front. Aloft, a shortwave is crossing the Appalachians. A relatively modest but notable low-level jet is pushing eastward across West Virginia. These features will result in increasing clouds early this morning, with showers and embedded thunderstorms breaking out across the area. With minimal SBCAPE, forcing is mostly aloft, so expect a relatively minimal severe weather threat this morning, but locally heavy rain may result in flooding concerns if heavier cells move across urban centers. Best concentration of rain this morning appears to be near Philadelphia into central NJ, with moisture having trouble getting further north as the front dropping southward stalls out. As the initial shortwave and low-level jet head east off the coast by this afternoon, a break may be had, but CAMS then indicate enough SBCAPE develops to cause more showers and thunderstorms this afternoon. These likely have a better, if still marginal, severe weather risk, but will also continue to carry a locally heavy rain risk, particularly if they move over urban centers. With the front stalled in north-central areas of the CWA, the main risk of storms this afternoon will also be from I-78 southward, with NW NJ and the Poconos quite possibly staying dry today. With better model agreement, upped pops to likely thru the day, though again, it won't be a washout... expect the first wave this morning then more activity this afternoon with dry time in between. However, with the better chance of rain and greater cloud cover, highs now look lower than previously, with low-mid 80s more common. Tonight, with all forcing heading out to sea or weakening after sunset, expect all showers and storms to end fairly quickly. Areas of fog may then become a concern overnight especially where it rains significantly during the day. Lows will be in the 60s to low 70s. && .SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/... The area will be in a lull to start the period Thursday morning as weak high pressure will be over the region. Main threat at this time will be any left over fog but any of this will burn off through the morning. Otherwise the day should feature a mix of sun and clouds with very warm but somewhat less humid conditions compared to many of our recent days. Expect highs mainly in the 80s to near 90 with dew points generally in the middle to upper 60s (compared to low to mid 70s). The weak high over the area early in the day will give way to the next approaching system by late day as a developing low pressure system and associated upper level wave move eastward across the lower Great Lakes. Some scattered showers and storms look to develop by the afternoon over central and western PA in the vicinity of this system's warm front and some of these could make it into our eastern PA and Delmarva zones by late day. However the trend has been slightly slower with this system so POPs are only in the 20 to 40 percent range here and less than 15 percent near the NJ coast where it should stay dry through the day. The more active period looks to be Thursday night beginning after sundown as the aformentioned low continues moving across southern Ontario pushing a warm front through the region. This low will be driven by a fairly potent wave in the upper levels that will start to take on a more neutral to negative tilt with an 80 knot jet moving through the base of the upper trough. This set up is at least somewhat concerning as it indicates forcing should be quite strong. And moisture won't be an issue as PWATs in the warm sector surge once again to around 1.75 to 2 inches. The upshot is that showers and thunderstorms should become fairly widespread across the area through the late evening into the overnight and will have the potential to produce very heavy downpours that could lead to flooding and even flash flooding. Best chances for this look to be near and N/W of the urban corridor. Some severe weather may be possible but the limiting factors here are that deep layer shear may be fairly marginal at 30 to 35 knots with surface instability potentially being limited to due to the timing at night. That said, the strong forcing could compensate so this is definitely a system that will bear watching. Expect lows mainly in the 60s to near 70. For Friday, the area will be right near the triple point to start the day with the low centered over the area. Showers/storms should still be ongoing at this time but should actually become less widespread by late morning into the afternoon as the strongest forcing and deepest moisture moves off to the north and east. That said, the actual surface low and associated cold front may be slow to move through so there will be the potential for at least some scattered storms through the day even as some sunny breaks start to develop. Best chances for storms look to be over NE PA into NW NJ with the lowest POPs across Delmarva. Expect highs generally in the mid to upper 80s along with high humidity although dew point should start to drop off by late day as the winds turn more westerly in the wake of the cold front. Any lingering showers/storms diminish Friday evening as the low pulls away with a somewhat cooler and less humid night in its wake under clearing skies and west to NW breezes. Lows should be mainly in the 60s with even some upper 50s over the southern Poconos. && .LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... There will be a respite this weekend from this very muggy and active weather pattern we've been in as the front from Friday continues to move off the coast and surface high pressure moves in. This looks to be bring us a dry weekend for once under partly to mainly sunny skies with seasonable temperatures and less humid conditions. Expect highs both days this weekend generally in the 80s except upper 70s over the Pocono Plateau. Lows look to be mainly in the 60s. Despite the respite over the weekend, the overall weather pattern will continue to feature a dominant long wave trough in the east and this set up will result in a return to muggier weather by early next week along with chances for showers/storms returning as well. This will occur as the surface high loses its grip over the area and the flow starts to turn more southerly. Highs by next Monday and Tuesday will once again reach well into the 80s to around 90 for much of the area with lows mainly ranging from the mid 60s to low 70s. && .AVIATION /07Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas... Today...VFR predominately, but intervals of MVFR and instances of IFR possible with heavier showers and thunderstorms moving across the terminals this morning and again this afternoon. Best chance of restriction is from KTTN southward...lesser risk at KRDG and KABE. Winds will be somewhat variable with a front in the vicinity. Tonight...IFR possible mainly late and especially south of KTTN where fog may develop overnight. Winds variable becoming northerly at 5 kts or less. Outlook... Thursday...Mainly VFR through the daytime with a few isolated to scattered showers/storms possible that could cause brief restrictions...best chances for this at RDG and ABE. Winds east to southeast then becoming more southerly late day at speeds of around 5 to 10 knots. Moderate confidence. Thursday night...Showers and thunderstorms become more widespread as a frontal system moves in with restrictions to MVFR or IFR likely. Winds south to southeast around 5 knots with higher gusts possible in storms. Friday...Showers/storms becoming more isolated to scattered with conditions becoming mainly VFR by late morning through the afternoon. Winds shifting to westerly around 10 knots as a cold front moves through. Saturday and Sunday...VFR. Northwest winds around 10 knots. Moderate confidence. && .MARINE... Sub-advisory conditions on the waters through tonight with winds southwesterly this morning around 5 kts increasing to around 10 kts from the southeast this afternoon, then turning northerly by late tonight. Waves 2-4 ft. Main boating hazard will be potential for scattered thunderstorms, possibly this morning and then again this afternoon into this evening. Patchy marine fog is possible as well. Outlook... Thursday through Sunday...No marine headlines expected. Winds generally around 10 knots with seas of 2 to 4 feet. Showers/storms likely over the waters at times Thursday night into Friday with tranquil weather over the weekend. Rip Currents... A light northwest to west wind this morning is forecast to become southerly around 10 MPH in the afternoon. Breaking waves should be 2 to 4 feet with a medium period southerly swell. There should still be an underlying long period swell from the east and southeast. However, with breaking wave heights on the decrease, we will carry a MODERATE risk for New Jersey and a LOW risk for Delaware for rip currents on Wednesday. For Thursday, south to southeast winds will are forecast to be a bit lighter with a further diminishing longer period swell. Therefor, we are expecting a LOW risk of rip currents for all New Jersey and Delaware Beaches on Thursday. && .PHI WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... PA...None. NJ...None. DE...None. MD...None.
