Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ
108 PM EDT Sat Jun 13 2026

.WHAT HAS CHANGED...
Aviation section updated for 18z TAFs.

&&

.KEY MESSAGES...
1. Much less humid today.

2. Showers and thunderstorms return Sunday afternoon into
Sunday night with the potential for some of these to be severe.
Cooler and less humid for the first half of next week.

3. Widespread minor coastal flooding with the evening
high tide cycles today and Sunday along the Atlantic coast and
Delaware Bay. A Coastal Flood Advisory is in effect for this
evening.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...Much less humid today.

A cold front has moved through the region and this is bringing in
cooler and less humid air. Although highs today will be in the upper
80s to near 90, dew points will be falling into the 50s by this
afternoon meaning the heat index will be close to the actual air
temperature.

Sunday will feature similar temperatures to today with dew points
starting to creep back up. That said, heat indices are not expected
to reach advisory levels.

KEY MESSAGE 2...Showers and thunderstorms return Sunday afternoon
into Sunday night with the potential for some of these to be severe.
Cooler and less humid for the first half of next week.

An expansive upper-level trough across much of eastern Canada Sunday
will gradually shift eastward into early next week. Some stronger
shortwave energy within the southern portion of the trough will
slide across our area later Sunday. A cold front will also be tied
to this feature and that will cross our area later Sunday afternoon
and Sunday evening. The low to mid level flow will increase some in
response to this incoming shortwave and cold front, which will also
increase the warm air advection and the low-level moisture
advection. Guidance shows a moisture return in the lower levels as
the air mass recovers from the substantial drying on Saturday. This
will result in it feeling more humid Sunday, however it is not
expected to be at the levels recently experienced.

The main forecast challenge is still the timing, coverage and
intensity of convection with this incoming system. It appears to be
later in the afternoon into the evening regarding the timing (mainly
between 4-11pm). There will be a period of stronger synoptic forcing
arriving, and with the low to mid level flow increasing and the
shear as well. Guidance is generally depicting bulk shear
values of 40+ knots with 0-3 km shear around 25-30 knots by late
Sunday. ML CAPE values should max out around 1000-1500 j/kg.
Given these factors, the Storm Prediction Center has maintained
a SLIGHT risk for severe storms across the entirety of our
forecast area. This means scattered severe storms will be
possible. Low level lapse rates will be steep indicating that
damaging winds will be the biggest threat. However some of the
guidance is depicting backed low level winds so an isolated
tornado can't be ruled out over SE PA into adjacent areas of
southern NJ as well as Delmarva. Finally, given that PWATs will
be maxing out around 2+ inches, we can't rule out localized
flash flooding over the urban corridor. However fast storm
motion should tend to limit this threat.

In the wake of the cold front, a less humid and cooler air mass
overspreads our area through the first half of next week. An upper-
level trough starts to approach  mid to late week bringing a return
of shower and thunderstorm chances Wednesday through Friday. The
highest chances for storms will generally be in the afternoon and
early evening period with Thursday currently looking to be the day
most favorable for greater coverage of showers/storms.

KEY MESSAGE 3...Widespread minor coastal flooding with the evening
high tide cycles today and Sunday along the Atlantic coast and
Delaware Bay. A Coastal Flood Advisory is in effect for this
evening.

A New Moon this weekend will result in higher than normal
astronomical tides. This will result in widespread minor coastal
flooding with the evening and nighttime high tide cycles Saturday
and Sunday, and potentially Monday as well on the Atlantic coast and
Delaware Bay. The tidal Delaware River and its tributaries could
experience some spotty minor tidal flooding by Sunday night's high
tide but generally these astronomical tide driven flooding events
produce more noteworthy impacts for the Atlantic coasts and Delaware
Bay. The highest of the New Moon tides will be Sunday night and
Monday night. A Coastal Flood Advisory is in effect for this evening
for portions of the Delaware Bay from Kent Co. DE and Cumberland Co.
NJ southward as well as along our Atlantic coastal zones.

Tidal flooding is not currently expected along the
eastern shore of Chesapeake Bay.

.AVIATION /18Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas.

Rest of Today...VFR with a few clouds. West-northwest winds
around 5-12 kt. High confidence.

Tonight...VFR with increasing high clouds. Southwest winds
around 5 kt or less, becoming light and variable at times. High
confidence.

Sunday...VFR expected much of the day. Sub-VFR conditions
likely during the late afternoon, primarily after 21Z as
showers and thunderstorms develop. South-southwest winds around
10-15 kt, gusting up to 20-25 kt in the afternoon. Moderate-high
confidence.

Outlook...

Monday...VFR. Northwesterly wind gusts up to 20 knots possible.

Tuesday...Mainly VFR.

Wednesday...Some sub-VFR conditions with some showers and storms
possible.

&&

.MARINE...
No marine headlines are expected through Saturday night as any
wind gusts will be below 25 knots with seas 2-3 feet.

Outlook...

Sunday...A brief period of Small Craft Advisory conditions are
possible in the afternoon and evening due to wind gusts to 25
knots. There will also be some showers and storms moving over
the waters Sunday evening.

Monday through Wednesday...No marine hazards anticipated.

Rip Currents...

For today, a medium period 6-8 second swell, offshore winds,
and breaking waves 2 feet or less will result in a LOW risk for
development of dangerous rip currents at the Jersey Shore and
Delaware Beaches.

For Sunday, winds become southerly and increase to around 15-20
MPH. However, a medium period swell around 6-8 seconds will
continue along with breaking waves once again 2 feet or less for
most beaches. The exception will be at southern facing beaches
in Cape May and Atlantic counties where breaking waves in the
surf zone will be up to 3 feet as the winds will be most
directly onshore here. Therefore, the risk for the development
of dangerous rip currents will be higher for these beaches, and
a MODERATE risk is currently forecast for these two counties.
For the remainder of the Jersey Shore and the Delaware Beaches,
a LOW risk for the development of dangerous rip currents is
forecast.

Ocean water temperatures are mostly in the mid to upper 60s.
