What happened

The episode as NWS PHI wrote it up.

The unseasonably dry weather in 2012, was even drier in March and continued during the first three weeks of April. The Drought Monitor was raised to D2 (severe drought) in Delaware on April 10th. Landscapers in Newark (New Castle County) reported that trees planted last year were dying from the lack of rain. Other vegetation, such as ornamentals, shrubs, hollies and evergreens were succumbing to the dry conditions. Farmers throughout the state were delaying some planting because of the lack of moisture in the soil. Field irrigation has begun unusually early and even included winter wheat crops. Lawn growth has been slowed drastically. While one to two inches of rain fell on the 22nd, it did little to improve conditions and raise the drought status. Sections of Kent and Sussex Counties remained in severe drought (D2) status at the end of the month. On a county weighted average, the state of Delaware counties averaged either 2.8 or 2.9 inches of precipitation during April, which was around 0.5 inches below normal.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
944 PM EDT MON APR 9 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
STRONG LOW PRESSURE IN NEW BRUNSWICK, CANADA WILL VERY SLOWLY
WEAKEN AS IT EVENTUALLY MOVES SOUTH OF NOVA SCOTIA THURSDAY.
SPRAWLING HIGH PRESSURE IN THE EASTERN UNITED STATES ON FRIDAY
WILL BECOME NEARLY STATIONARY OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST THIS WEEKEND
WHILE THE NEXT CANADIAN COOL FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE NORTH LATE
ON SUNDAY OR EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM TUESDAY MORNING/...
THE WEST WIND CONTINUED TO DIMINISH THIS EVENING AND IT SHOULD
SETTLE MAINLY INTO THE 5 TO 10 MPH RANGE OVERNIGHT.

AREAS OF CLOUDS FROM THE WEST WILL CONTINUE TO DRIFT OVERHEAD
DURING THE NIGHT. HOWEVER, THERE WILL BE MAINLY CLEAR PERIODS, AS
WELL.

THE SHOWERS ASSOCIATED WITH AN IMPULSE ROTATING AROUND THE LOW
PRESSURE AREA TO OUR NORTHEAST WILL CONTINUE TO BRUSH ACROSS OUR
SOUTHERN COUNTIES, ESPECIALLY IN THE HOURS BEFORE 200 AM. THERE IS
LIMITED MOISTURE, SO RAINFALL AMOUNTS WILL BE LESS THAN A TENTH OF
AN INCH. WITH THE RELATIVELY DRY AIR IN THE LOW LEVELS, SOME OF
THE SHOWERS HAVE BEEN MIXING GUSTY WINDS FROM ALOFT TO THE
SURFACE. THE WIND GUSTS HAVE BEEN RATHER BRIEF.

TEMPERATURES SHOULD FALL MAINLY INTO THE 30S AND LOWER 40S IN OUR
REGION BY DAYBREAK.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM TUESDAY/...
ANOTHER ENERGY AREA WILL ROTATE ACROSS OUR REGION TUESDAY. IT
WILL ACTUALLY BE A WEAK COLD FRONT ACCOMPANIED BY LITTLE MORE THAN
SOME CLOUDS AND POSSIBLY A FEW SPRINKLES OR LIGHT SHOWERS, MAINLY
IN OUR NORTHERN AND CENTRAL SECTIONS. ONCE THE SUN RISES, WINDS
WILL INCREASE. IT SHOULDN'T BE QUITE AS WINDY AS TODAY, BUT IT
WILL BE QUITE BREEZY WITH WESTERLY WINDS 15 TO 20 MPH WITH GUSTS
TO AROUND 30 MPH. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE SLIGHTLY LOWER THAN
TODAY, WITH READINGS RANGING FROM AROUND 50 NORTH TO THE LOWER 60S
SOUTH.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
ALOFT: LARGE AMPLITUDE TROUGH OVER THE NORTHEAST USA MIGRATES
INTO THE MARITIMES BY THIS WEEKEND. STRONG RIDGING FOLLOWS INTO
THE MID AND S ATLC COAST DURING THE WEEKEND...PROBABLY SLIDING OFF
THE COAST NEXT MONDAY.

MODELS: HAVE BASICALLY NOT USED THE 12Z GFS FROM SUNDAY ONWARDS
DUE TO ITS SEEMING FAR TOO FAST SE MOVEMENT INTO THE COAST 500 MB
RDG WHICH 00Z/9 RMOP IS VERY CONFIDENT ABOUT HOLDING FIRM FROM 40N
LATITUDE SOUTHWARD. 12Z GEFS IS SUGGESTING MORE THAN ONE MEMBER
SUPPORTS THIS FASTER 12Z GFS SOLUTION SO CONFIDENCE IN THE
FORECAST FROM SUNDAY NIGHT ONWARD IS BELOW AVERAGE!

SURFACE TEMPERATURES: BELOW NORMAL THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING WARMS
CONSIDERABLY OVER THE WEEKEND WITH CALENDAR DAY AVERAGES AT LEAST
10 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL SUNDAY. NEXT MONDAY HAS LARGE BUST
POTENTIAL IN THIS DAY 7 OUTLOOK...RANGING FROM A BIT ABOVE NORMAL
TO TEMPERATURES 20 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL. ALL DEPENDS ON THE
LOCATION OF THE CANADIAN COOL FRONT AND ITS ASSOCIATED CONVECTION.

HAZARDS: FROST/FREEZE POTENTIAL EACH MORNING FROM WEDNESDAY
THROUGH FRIDAY. FIRE WEATHER RED FLAG POTENTIAL IS MUCH LESS THAN
THAT OF TODAY OR TUESDAY AND NO HEADLINES ARE EXPECTED THOUGH
SPS'S MAY BE NEEDED. PLS SEE THE FIRE WEATHER SECTION.

THE DAILIES BELOW...

BLENDED 12Z/9 NCEP GUIDANCE TEMPS/DEWPOINTS/WINDS CHECKED AGAINST
THE 00Z AND 12Z/9 OP ECMWF EXCEPT AS NOTED BELOW. AT 00Z FRI THIS
TRANSITIONS TO 14Z/9 HPC GUIDANCE CHECKED AGAINST THE 12Z/9 GFS
MEX GUIDANCE...THE 00Z-12Z/9 ECMWF OP GUIDANCE AND THE 12Z/9 GEFS.
THE 12Z/9 GFS MEX GUIDANCE WAS NOT APPLIED NEXT SUNDAY NIGHT AND
MONDAY, DUE TO THIS BEING THE FIRST GFS OP RUN THAT SUGGESTS A
MUCH FASTER CFP.

TUESDAY NIGHT...FAIR SKIES. LIGHT WIND. FREEZE OR FROST
CONDITIONS AND A HAZARD POTENTIAL FOR THE COUNTRYSIDE OF E PA AND
N/CENTRAL NJ. COOLER THAN NORMAL.

WEDNESDAY-THURSDAY...DIURNAL SHOWER THREAT ASSOCIATED WITH COLD
TROUGH ALOFT AND ITS ASSOCIATED DIURNALLY ENHANCED INSTABILITY.
THE RAIN CANT BE SIGNIFICANT BECAUSE OF CONTINENTAL NORTHWEST FLOW
AND PWATS GENERALLY LESS THAN 0.4 INCHES AS MODELED BY THE 09Z/9
SREF. CONSERVATIVE ON POPS. WHERE SHOWERS ARENT
MENTIONED...CHANCES ARE THERE WILL BE SPRINKLES. COOLER THAN
NORMAL.

FRIDAY...DRY AND VERY VERY NICE AS AFTN MAX TEMPS REBOUND ABOVE
NORMAL. EAST COAST HIGH PRESSURE IN FULL CONTROL.

THIS WEEKEND...EXPECT MOSTLY DRY ALTHOUGH THERE IS SOME MODEL
GUIDANCE FCSTG AN INSTABILITY BURST OF SHOWERS SATURDAY NIGHT AND
POSSIBLY A SHOWER OR STG THUNDERSTORM SUNDAY NIGHT IN THE NORTH
BUT AM NOT CONFIDENT OF MUCH..IF ANY..RAIN THIS WEEKEND.

NEXT MONDAY...CONSIDERABLE UNCERTAINTY DEPENDING ON YOUR MODEL OF
CHOICE. AS DESCRIBED IN THE TEMPERATURE SECTION ABOVE...THIS IS A
LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST DUE TO THE UNKNOWN PROXIMITY OF A CANADIAN
COOL FRONT. SOUTH OF THE FRONT PROBABLY WELL UP IN THE 80S ON A
GUSTY WEST WIND!

&&

WINDS GUSTING TO AROUND 30 KT.

OUTLOOK...

NORTHEASTERN MARYLAND, DELAWARE, SOUTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA AND
SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL NEW JERSEY AS CONDITIONS THERE SEEM LIKELY TO
REACH RED FLAG WARNING CRITERIA BASED ON THE LATEST GUIDANCE.

FOR OUR NORTHERN COUNTIES, CONDITIONS APPEARS AS THOUGH THEY WILL
BE SOMEWHAT MARGINAL. AS A RESULT, WE HAVE MAINTAINED THE FIRE
WEATHER WATCH THERE SO THAT WE CAN TAKE A LOOK AT THE NEXT BATCH
OF MODEL GUIDANCE.

OUTLOOK...
SHOWERS OR SPRINKLES WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY WILL BE RELATIVELY
INSIGNIFICANT...BRIEF AND CANT AMOUNT TO MUCH. THE COOLER TEMPS
WILL HELP KEEP RH'S A LITTLE HIGHER.

AS FAR AS FWX HEADLINES...PROBABLY NONE WEDNESDAY THROUGH
SATURDAY. THURSDAY AND SATURDAY MAY NEED AN SPS FOR MARGINALLY LOW
HUMIDITY NEAR 30 PERCENT WITH PROBABLY ENOUGH WIND GUSTS AOA 20
