Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ
402 PM EDT Sun Jun 23 2024

.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front will move across the east coast tonight, then
offshore and out to sea on Monday. High pressure will build to
the south the region through Tuesday. Another cold front is
expected to move across the east coast Wednesday night and
offshore by Thursday morning. High pressure builds across the
Mid Atlantic and northeastern states Friday, then offshore
Friday night. Another cold front is expected later Saturday into
Sunday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/...
Conditions remain favorable for showers and tstms to
develop/increase over the area late this afternoon and into the
evening. In the meantime, extreme heat and humidity continue
over the area with the Excessive Heat Warning and Heat Advisory
flags continuing. Heat index values in the 100 to 110 range are
being observed as of 2 PM. Once tstms develop, damaging winds
and localized excessive rains are possible. Pay attention to the
skies and keep a source of weather informations handy into the
evening.

Tonight, the cold front crosses the area setting off showers
and tstms mostly for the evening hours. The CAPE and shear
conditions remain favorable for tstms which may become severe at
times. The SPC continues with a SLIGHT risk for severe weather
into the overnight. Once the front passes, the showers/tstms end
from NW to SE. Lows will remain very warm with upper 60s N/W
and low/mid 70s S/E. The cooler/drier air will arrive well
behind the front. Winds turn from Southwest to West overnight.

For Monday, the front will be east of the area Monday morning.
Drier and cooler air arrives behind it. Any early morning
showers across ern Delaware or extreme SE NJ around dawn will
end by mid-morning. Clouds will decrease from NW to SE across
the area. Daytime temperatures will be quite a bit cooler for
most areas with mid/upper 70s for the Southern Poconos and
Lehigh Valley areas and low/mid 80s for metro Philadelphia and
much of NJ. A few upper 80s for Delmarva are possible. The dew
points will be much lower with a more comfortable feel to the
air. Winds will be West to Northwest and increase to 10 to 15
mph with gusts to 25 mph at times.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
The short term forecast begins with dry weather expected for
Monday night through Tuesday night. High pressure will build out
of the Ohio River Valley Monday night, across Virginia and
North Carolina during the day Tuesday, then offshore Tuesday
night. Our area will be on the northern fringe of the high, and
even though there area a couple of short wave/vorticity impulses
expected in the northwest to west flow aloft Monday night and
Tuesday, low PW values will not be conducive to precipitation.
By Tuesday night, moisture will be increasing across the area,
but there is not expected to be any forcing mechanism to help
create showers.

As we move into Wednesday and Wednesday night, a cold front
will approach the area from the west late in the day, then move
across the Mid Atlantic region Wednesday night. Wednesday will
likely be another hot and humid day ahead of the approaching
front, similar to this past week and weekend. But thankfully it
looks like the heat should not last long. There will be
instability across the area with CAPE values 500-1000 J/kg,
along with some enhanced shear with values reaching 30-40 knots.
So there will be the potential for some stronger storms to
develop. The cold front will move through overnight, so there
may be a greater chance of showers and thunderstorms overnight,
although the storms may not be as strong during the overnight
hours.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
The aforementioned cold front will move offshore by Thursday
morning and out to sea during the day. There could be some
lingering showers near the coast as the front departs the area,
but most areas will be dry. High pressure will then build across
the Mid Atlantic and northeastern states Friday, then offshore
Friday night. This will bring another period of dry weather to
the area.

Yet another cold front is expected to move across the area next
weekend, although there are some timing differences with the
models. While the GFS and Canadian have the front moving through
as early as Saturday night, the ECMWF has the front moving
through during the day Sunday. So we will keep the higher chance
of precipitation for the Saturday night through Sunday night
period, although it will not likely rain the whole time.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas.

.Thru the evening... Increasing chances and coverage for
showers and tstms. Lower CIGS/VSBYS included in TAFS for most
likely timing of the tstms. Low confid in which terminals will
be affected and timing is Moderate confid. S/SW winds 10 to 20
kts with G25 kts expected. Medium confid overall.

.Tonight... Showers/tstms moving E thru the area overnight then
ending. Clouds decreasing from NW/SE overnight. CIGS returning
to VFR after showers/tstms end.

.Monday... Any lingering low clouds during the early morning,
most likely near KACY/KMIV, will move away around 12Z. VFR
expected for the day with gusty W/NW winds developing. Gusts of
20 to 25 kts expected. Medium confid.

Outlook...

Monday night...VFR conditions expected. Gusty northwest winds
20-25 knots early in the evening, then northwest 5-10 knots.

Tuesday...VFR conditions expected. Gusty northwest winds around 15
knots during the day.

Tuesday night...VFR conditions expected.

Wednesday...Mostly VFR conditions expected. Chance of showers and
thunderstorms in the afternoon which may lead to lower conditions.
Gusty southwest winds 15-20 knots.

Wednesday night...Periods of sub-VFR conditions possible with
showers and thunderstorms likely.

Thursday...VFR conditions expected. Gusty northwest winds 15-20
knots.

Thursday night...VFR conditions expected

Friday...VFR conditions expected.

&&

.MARINE...
The SCA flag will continue tonight and into Monday for the ocean
waters. The lower Delaware Bay was added too with more gusts and
choppy seas expected to develop this afternoon/evening associated
with showers/tstms. Once the front passes overnight, surface winds
will switch around to W/NW and continue to be gusty into Monday.
Showers/tstms expected to develop later this afternoon and continue
into the early overnight. Fair weather for Monday.

Outlook...

Monday night-Tuesday night...Conditions expected to remain below
advisory levels.

Wednesday-Wednesday night...Conditions may reach Small Craft
Advisory levels.

Thursday-Friday...Conditions expected to remain below advisory
levels.

Rip Currents...

Monday...West-northwest winds around 10-15 mph with gusts up to
20 mph and breaking waves around 2 to 3 feet. Although wind
direction will be directed offshore, wave periods are expected
to increase to around 7 to 8 seconds. For this reason, have
maintained a MODERATE Risk for the development of dangerous rip
currents for both NJ/DE beaches.

Tuesday...Northwest winds will back to southerly as the day
goes on around 10 mph. Breaking waves around 1 to 2 feet. With
winds mainly directed offshore or parallel to the coast and
much lower wave heights, have opted to go with a LOW Risk of rip
currents for all beaches.
