BanghoffWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS State College, PA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Apr 3, 4:43 AM EDT, 20 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 3, 4:43 AM EDT, 20 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service State College PA 443 AM EDT Wed Apr 3 2024 .SYNOPSIS... -Additional 1.5-2.5" of rain will maintain an elevated risk of inundation and river/small stream flooding into Thursday -Breezy and cooler end to the week with rain and snow showers ending on Saturday -Milder Spring weather pattern returns next week with above average temperatures && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... Latest MRMS and IR satellite trends indicate declining rain rates (<0.50 in/hr), warming cloud tops, and loss of elevated convection/ltg across CPA early this morning. The ongoing batch of light to moderate rain will continue to track from southwest to northeast through the remainder of the morning with max QPF in the 0.50-1" range over the Allegheny Plateau. Strong mid and upper level dynamics will help drive another round of heavy rain today with the new D1 WPC upgraded SLGT risk ERO focused over central and eastern portions of the area. 160-170kt upper jet core rounding the base of closed 500mb low over the Midwest along with increasing large scale forcing will shift ongoing convection in the southern Appalachians to the northeast later today. With warm front holding position south of the MD line, cool/stable air will persist in CAD pattern north of developing triple point SLP tracking from southwest VA to southern NJ by 00Z Thu. Despite not being in the warm sector, strong mid level ascent should overcome the surface based capping to help support elevated convection moving northward with the mean flow, and anomalous pwats should contribute to localized rates 0.5-1"/hr from late morning through the mid afternoon before pivoting to the northeast. Flood watch continues with an additional 1.5 to 2.5 inches of rain forecast (on top of the 1-4 inches that have already fallen) through tonight. Wet ground conditions and high streamflows particularly across south central PA will maintain an elevated risk of inundation and river/small stream flooding. A very tight pressure gradient across Eastern PA to the north of a developing secondary low over Virginia will result in wind gusts 30-45 mph particularly downwind (northeast) of the ridgetops over the Western Poconos. The combination of wet ground and gusts from the east increases the threat of downed trees and highlighted this risk in the HWO. Colder air filtering into the area Wed night will result in rain/snow ptypes at elevations generally AOA 13-1500ft with all snow >2000ft. A minor snow accumulation (coating up to 1 inch or so) is possible on the ridgetops and highest terrain by Thursday morning. && .SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/... Rain and snow (showers) continue Thursday underneath the closed H5 low with daytime temps bottoming 10-20F below average into Friday. Sfc-700 hPa lapse rates will be impressive beneath the upper trough Thursday afternoon and support numerous diurnal rain/snow showers with graupel/small hail and even a few lightning strikes. SWO D2 general thunder area was expanded to include all of central with the environment supportive of the low topped convection. Unseasonably cool cyclonic flow on the backside of departing upper low will maintain rain and snow showers over the Alleghenies with some rain showers or flurries spilling toward the lower Susq Valley thru late week. Elevation driven, wet snow accumulation is forecast especially Thu night into Friday morning. Friday will be chilly with a brisk wind from the northwest effectively shaving ~10F off of maxT based on apparent temps. && .LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... Near vertically stacked low over Down East Maine Friday night will keep the CWA under a deep, well-aligned and unseasonably cold NW flow that will start the weekend with plenty of clouds with scattered AM snow showers over the N Mtns. The upper low is progged to lift away from the region the second half of the weekend, with rising heights resulting in fair and seasonable conditions Sunday. Upper level ridging over the region should result in warmer and generally dry weather early next week. However, can't rule out a few showers Monday PM or Tuesday associated with a slow moving warm front over the Ohio Valley. && .AVIATION /08Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... A mix of MVFR and IFR conditions continues to be observed across central PA as multiple rounds of rainfall continue across the airspace. The bulk of model guidance suggests widespread IFR conds throughout a majority of the TAF period although any lower-lvl clouds that scatter out could allow for brief periods of MVFR conds. In the near-term some potential for lightning exists at BFD/LNS/MDT from 06-09Z Wednesday, with some increased potential for lightning at JST/AOO from 08-10Z as some elevated convection moves NE'ward from MD/western PA. Storms are on the weakening trend, so there is higher confidence earlier on in these timeframe with less confidence later. Some stronger storms and showers could bring gusty winds in excess of 25 kts overnight. Low-lvl wind shear remains possible at western airfields (BFD/JST with lesser confidence AOO/UNV) from 06Z-12Z Wednesday as a 40-50 kt LLJ moves in from the west. Gusty winds become more confined to SE PA (MDT/LNS) as low-pressure develops off the east coast. Guidance continues to suggest gusts between 30 to 35 kts at 090-130 during the morning hours before tapering off slightly later in afternoon. Outlook... Thu...Colder air moves in and lingering rain showers will mix with or change over to snow showers across higher elevations. Fri-Sat...A few snow showers possible, mostly KJST and KBFD. Sun...Skies clearing throughout the day. && .HYDROLOGY... Previous/ongoing rainfall continues to saturate the ground with considerable responses already on some small streams and creeks. With an additional 2-3 inches (locally up to 4) of rain forecast through Wednesday night, we now expect over a dozen (13) river points to approach/potentially exceed minor flood stage. Can't rule out a moderate flood in some of the favored locations in the Juniata Basin. Williamsport and Harrisburg are now both expected to exceed action stage and approach minor flood stage on Thursday into Friday. && .CLIMATE... After one of the warmest starts to March on record, temperature departures were near to below average during the second half of the month. Here are the March 2024 temperature rankings: Harrisburg: Avg. temp 46.3F (+4.5F, 12th warmest) Williamsport: Avg. temp 44.5F (+5.8F, 10th warmest) Altoona: Avg. temp 44.9F (+6.2F, T4th warmest) Bradford: Avg. temp 40.2F (+7.2F, 3rd warmest) && .CTP WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
