The episode as NWS PHI wrote it up.
A line of strong to severe thunderstorms moved through central and northern New Jersey. The air mass preceding the storms was unseasonably warm for December 1st as high temperatures reached into the 60s and lower 70s. This provided the instability coupled with the cold front that moved through the region to trigger the storms.
The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Philadelphia/Mount Holly wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Dec 1, 4:50 PM EST, 1 hour 10 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
450 PM EST FRI DEC 1 2006
.SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THIS FORECAST STARTS OUT WITH SOME WILD AND WOOLY WEATHER.
CONDITIONS OUTSIDE SEEM MORE LIKE SPRING THAN THE FIRST DAY OF
METEOROLOGICAL WINTER. LATEST SFC ANALYSIS SHOWS A SECONDARY LOW
PRESS OF 990 MB HAS FORMED OVER WESTERN NY STATE...WITH A STRONG
COLD FRONT EXTENDING SOUTH ACROSS CENTRAL PA INTO WESTERN VA. THE
AIRMASS AHEAD OF THE FRONT IS CHARACTERIZED BY SFC TEMPS IN THE LOW
TO MID 70S AND DEWPTS IN THE LOW TO MID 60S. MAX CAPE IN THE WARM
SECTOR HAS INCREASED TO NEAR 1000 J/KG...A LITTLE HIGHER THAN WE
EXPECTED. WITH VERY STRONG WIND FIELDS AND LOW LVL CONVERGENCE...A
LINE OF INTENSE TSTMS HAS FORMED OVER THE SUSQ RIVER VLY AND WILL
LIKELY PRODUCE SOME SIGFNT WIND DAMAGE AS IT MOVES ACROSS OUR
FORECAST AREA THIS EVENING. AN ISOLATED TORNADO CANNOT BE RULED OUT
EITHER.
AFTER THE COLD FRONT PASSED BY...ROUGHLY BETWEEN 7 PM AND 9 PM THIS
EVENING...VERY STRONG WESTERLY WINDS AND COLD ADVECTION WILL MOVE
INTO THE AREA. WE HAVE EXPANDED THE HIGH WIND WARNING OVER MOST OF
THE FORECAST AREA FOR THIS EVENING...AS IS APPEARS THAT MOST OF OUR
LOCAL DECISION TREE CRITERIA WILL BE MET. THIS INCLUDES 3 HR SFC
PRESS RISES OF GREATER THAN 5 MB...850 MB WINDS OVER 50 KT...AND
STRONG DOWNWARD MOTION. LIMITING FACTOR MIGHT BE LOW-LEVEL LAPSE
RATES...BUT MOST PARAMETERS APPEAR TO BE SUFFICIENT FOR SOME WIND
GUSTS UP TO 50 KT. GUSTY WINDS SHOULD GRADUALLY DIMINISH AFTER
MIDNIGHT.
REST OF THE SHORT TERM FORECAST IS MUCH SIMPLER. SOME GUST WINDS
WILL CONTINUE ON SAT AS HIGH PRESS BUILDS IN BUT WILL DIMINISH SAT
NIGHT AND SUN AS THE HIGH CENTER MOVES BY. OF COURSE TEMPS WILL FEEL
SHARPLY COLDER BUT WILL ACTUALLY BE NEAR OR SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL.
GOOD RADIATING CONDS WILL OCCUR SAT NIGHT AND TEMPS SHOULD FALL
BELOW FREEZING IN MOST AREAS. NO PRECIP IS EXPECTED THROUGH SUN.
.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
A SHRTWV TROF ALOFT WILL APPROACH LATER ON SUNDAY AND IS FCST TO
TRIGGER DVLPMT OF A SFC LOW PRES OFF THE CAROLINA COAST SUN NIGHT.
THE SUBSEQUENT TRACK OF THE LOW IS UNCERTAIN ATTM WITH THE NAM
KEEPING IT MUCH CLOSER TO THE MID ATLANTIC COAST VS THE GFS AND LONG
RANGE ENSEMBLE. HAVE MAINTAINED A LOW CHANCE POP FOR MOST OF FCST
AREA FOR SUN NIGHT AND MONDAY. TEMPS WOULD BE COLD ENOUGH FOR SOME
SNOW IN MANY AREAS AWAY FROM THE COAST...BUT CONFIDENCE IN GETTING
ANY MSRBL PRECIP IS NOT HIGH.
NO SIG WX IS EXPECTED AFTER MONDAY. NORTHEST FLOW ALOFT WILL PREVAIL
WITH A COUPLE OF FAST MOVING AND MOISTURE-STARVED CLIPPER TYPE
SYSTEMS MOVG THROUGH. EACH SYSTEM WILL BRING IN MORE COLD AIR AT THE
SFC WITH A TREND TOWARD BELOW NORMAL TEMPS.
&&
.AVIATION...
HAVE TRIED TO TIME THE SQUALL LINE PASSAGE IN THE 18Z TAFS, AND WILL
MONITOR IF A TIMING UPDATE IS NECESSARY. WE FORECAST LESSER GUSTS
WITH THE LINE AS ONE MOVES E THROUGH OUR TAF SITES AS THERE IS A BIT
OF A MARINE LAYER AFFECTING STABILITY NEAR MIV AND ACY. THE GUSTS
THAT ARE FORECAST ARE FAIRLY CONSISTENT WITH THE HIGH WIND
WARNING/WIND ADVISORY IN EFFECT. CONDITIONS IN ADVANCE OF THE FRONT
ARE MAINLY MVFR, DUE TO CIGS, AND THEY TRANSITION TO VFR AS CEILINGS
DISSIPATE FAIRLY SHORTLY AFTER THE FROPA. CIGS COULD LINGER FOR A
BIT OVER ABE AND RDG.
&&
.MARINE...
FORECAST HAS BEEN VERIFYING FAIRLY WELL, AND THERE WERE NO REALLY
SIG CHANGES TO THE WIND OR WAVE FORECASTS. BOOSTED THE SEAS A LTL
ALONG THE COAST, AND ENDED THE GALE A COUPLE OF HOURS EARLIER ALONG
THE LOWER BAY AND COAST. NEXT SYSTEM LOOKS LIKE IT MIGHT GENERATE
SCA CONDITIONS. AT LEAST THAT IS HOW WE FORECAST IT FOR NOW.
&&
.TIDES...
THE ADVISORY FOR MINOR TIDAL FLOODING ALONG EASTERN SHORE OF THE
UPPER CHESAPEAKE EXPIRED AT 415 PM, WITH TIDES FALLING SHORT OF
MINOR FLOODING LEVELS. THEY WILL NOT LOWER TOO MUCH INTO THE EARLY
EVENING AS THE STRONG SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL CONTINUE, BUT WE WOULD
NEED DEPARTURES TO APPROACH 3 FT BEFORE THE FROPA OCCURS AND DO NOT
THINK THAT WILL HAPPEN.
REGARDING BLOWOUT TIDES, THE GFS SSE GUIDANCE IS GIVING THEM TO US
LATE THIS EVENING DESPITE ONLY A FEW HOURS OF OFFSHORE FLOW. THE NGM
BASED ECS GUIDANCE IS MORE CONSERVATIVE REGARDING THAT, BUT A
COMPROMISE BETWEEN THE TWO FOR TOMORROWS FIRST LOW TIDE SEEMS IN
ORDER. THAT WOULD GIVE MARGINAL BLOWOUT TIDES. WE HAVE ISSUED A LOW
WATER ADVSISORY THAT SHOWS IN THE CWF AND AN MWS FOR THE COAST AND
DE BAY.
