The episode as NWS PHI wrote it up.
A warm front moved through the mid-Atlantic on the morning of April 9. During the late morning and early afternoon, the mid-Atlantic was in a narrow warm sector with a cold front quickly approaching from the west as low pressure tracked through the Great Lakes and then began to redevelop over southern New England. Ahead of the front, a strongly forced and highly sheared environment existed. Heating and moisture were limited in the small warm sector region, but sufficient instability developed to support convective development, and a broken line of showers and thunderstorms moved across the region, causing a considerable amount of wind damage.
That evening, additional severe weather occurred as several post-frontal squalls developed. One of these squalls developed into a low-topped thunderstorm. Steep lapse rates and strong wind profiles allowed this storm to also produce wind damage over southeastern Pennsylvania, northeast Maryland, northern Delaware, and southern New Jersey.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ
1212 PM EDT Thu Apr 9 2020
.SYNOPSIS...
As a rapidly deepening surface low slowly moves into the
Northeast today, a warm front will lift north through the area
this morning before a cold front sweeps through this afternoon.
The low will lift slowly toward the Canadian Maritimes Friday
and Saturday, with high pressure building into the eastern U.S.
this weekend. Another intense surface low will move from the
southern Plains on Sunday to the Great Lakes region Sunday
night, with an associated cold front crossing the Mid-Atlantic
on Monday. Another system may affect the area around the middle
of next week.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
12:00 PM...
A Severe Thunderstorm Watch has been issued for most of the region
until 4PM EDT this afternoon. All previous forecast thinking remains
valid. A period of strong to damaging convective winds are likely
over the next 2-4 hours, followed by continued gusty synoptic winds
into this evening.
Morning update...
No significant changes with the morning update as the previous
forecast is largely on track. Initial round of mainly elevated
convection has moved offshore, and a general lull in activity
is expected for the late morning hours. Satellite and radar show
surface based convection developing over central PA ahead of
the cold front. This will be the main show for our area, coming
in mainly between 12PM and 4PM from west to east. Continuing to
expect strong to potentially damaging wind gusts with this
activity. The greatest wind threat may be focused more over the
southern half of the region, where the Sun has broken out and
temperatures are already warming steadily. Behind the
convection, strong synoptic winds remain likely this afternoon.
No headline changes with this update. Previous discussion
follows.
An area of low pressure will be moving out of the eastern Great
Lakes and across New York today, then move into New England
later today into tonight. Meanwhile, another low pressure will
be moving across southeast Canada today, before merging with the
initial low over New England tonight. The initial low moving
across New York will lift a warm front across the Mid-Atlantic
region this morning, followed by a cold front during the late
morning and afternoon hours. As the lows combine to our north
overnight, a couple of surface troughs will move across the area
within the strong northwest flow.
Weatherwise, we have a several rounds of precipitation expected
today into tonight. First is an initial round of showers and
thunderstorms approaching from the west that are associated with
a short wave moving along the lifting warm frontal boundary. These
are expected to weaken in intensity as they move into the Mid-
Atlantic region, however, there will still be a period of showers
and possibly a few thunderstorms as this activity moves through
the area around and shortly after daybreak. As this initial
convection passes across the area, the warm front will be lifting
northward across the area as well. Once the warm front lifts to
our north, much of the area should begin to become pretty well
mixed and warm up some ahead of the front and become unstable.
CAPE values approach 500-1,000 J/KG, while bulk shear values
exceed 60-70 knots as a diffluent 70+ knot 500 mb flow moves
across the area. As the low level jet increases to 40-50 knots,
some thunderstorms could become severe and lead to damaging as a
squall line likely develops ahead of the cold front. The SPC has
much of the area under a Slight Risk of severe weather today.
Once the front moves across the area, winds will increase
behind the front across the entire area. Even without
thunderstorm winds, once the front moves across the area, there
will be an abrupt shift in wind direction and the strong winds
will increase rapidly. Wind gusts in excess of 45-50 mph, with
some locally higher gusts will occur across the area. Therefore
we have maintained the Wind Advisory.
The strongest wind gusts will be this afternoon, before speeds
likely diminish by this evening. Therefore we have left the
timing of the Wind Advisory as it was previously. However, winds
will still be gusty overnight, gusting to at least 30-40 mph.
A couple of surface troughs will move across the area overnight
tonight, while a couple of short waves/vorticity impulses move
across the area as well. There will be enhanced moisture moving
across the area, along with increasing low-mid level lapse rates
and lift. There will be a chance of showers through this
evening and overnight, and with temperatures cooling off
overnight, there will be some snow showers across portions of
northeast Pennsylvania and northern New Jersey.
&&
.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
As low pressure remains to our northeast Friday and high
pressure well to our southwest, our area remains within a tight
pressure gradient through Friday. Winds will continue to be
gusty on Friday, and with winds above the surface 40-45 knots,
there will be a chance for wind gusts to approach 40-45 mph on
Friday, if not higher. So we have decided to hold off on a Wind
Advisory for now. The wind speeds will diminish overnight Friday,
but it will remain gusty through the night.
A couple of short wave/vorticity impulses will move across the
area within the northwest flow aloft on Friday. This could lead
to a chance of showers across portions of eastern Pennsylvania
and northern New Jersey. Areas across northeast Pennsylvania and
northwest New Jersey may be cold enough for some snow as well.
&&
.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
High pressure builds to our south of Saturday, then offshore of
the southeastern states Saturday night. Dry weather is expected
through Saturday and Saturday night as our area will be on the
northern side of the low.
By Sunday, the high will drift out to sea, while return flow
develops across the Mid-Atlantic region. Temperatures will warm
quite a bit on Sunday as compared to Saturday. There will be a
slight chance of showers on Sunday as a couple of weak short
wave/vorticity impulses move across the area, but the main action
moves in Sunday night into Monday.
During Sunday night, an area of low pressure will move across the
Mid-West states and into the Great Lakes area, before lifting
into southern Canada on Monday. This will lift an occluding
frontal system across the Mid-Atlantic and northeastern states.
Rainfall is expected to begin overnight Sunday, then continue into
Monday morning. There is not much instability, so thunderstorms
are not currently expected. However, PW values approach or exceed
one inch, so periods of moderate to heavy rainfall can be
expected.
The front will have moved offshore by Monday afternoon/Monday
evening. Gusty wind will develop behind the front Monday and
continue Monday night into Tuesday. There will be a slight
chance of showers Tuesday as a couple of short waves/vorticity
impulse move across the area.
By Wednesday, there is disagreement with the long term models
in how they handle a potential coastal storm developing along
the old cold front offshore of the east coast. The ECMWF is much
more aggressive strengthening the low moving it offshore of the
Mid- Atlantic and bringing rain to the area. The GFS and Canadian
suppresses the system and keep rain away from the area. We will
have a chance of showers due the uncertainty, but no more than 40
percent.
&&
.AVIATION /16Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas.
Through late this afternoon... A wide range in conditions is
expected to continue as a cold front approaches. Ahead of the front
(through around 16z), a mix of IFR, MVFR, and VFR with southwest
winds mainly 10 to 15 kt. Between 16z and 20z, a band of showers and
thunderstorms will move through. Only brief restrictions to IFR are
expected in the narrow line of convection. Behind the precip,
conditions should return to VFR/MVFR. During and after the showers
and storms pass, winds will increase sharply and shift from
southwest to northwest. Gusts of 30 to 40 kt are likely for much of
the afternoon. During the passage of the showers/storms, brief gusts
to 50 kt cannot be ruled out. Moderate confidence in flight
conditions today but better confidence in overall trends.
This evening through tonight...VFR with west to northwest winds
20 to 30 kt with gusts to 40 kt during the afternoon, possibly
diminishing to around 10 to 15 kt with higher gusts in the
evening. However, a second surge of stronger winds is likely
late tonight, possibly increasing to 15 to 25 kt with gusts 30+
kt. Moderate confidence.
Outlook...
Friday...Mainly VFR (though lower CIGs may develop northwest of
PHL) with west to northwest winds 20 to 30 kt with gusts to 40
kt. Moderate confidence.
Friday night and Saturday...Mainly VFR with west to northwest
winds 10 to 20 kt with gusts to 30 kt. High confidence.
Saturday night...Mainly VFR with winds becoming southerly and
diminishing to around or below 10 kt. Moderate confidence.
Sunday...Generally VFR (though CIGs will be lowering through
the day, possibly approaching sub-VFR late) with winds becoming
southeasterly 10 to 20 kt with higher gusts, especially near the
coast. Low confidence.
Sunday night and Monday...Periods of sub-VFR probable with a
good chance of rain. Southeast to south winds 10 to 20 kt with
higher gusts becoming southwest on Monday. Moderate confidence.
&&
.MARINE...
A lengthy period of gales is expected on area waters from this
afternoon through Friday night.
Southeast winds will increase quickly this morning, likely
reaching advisory levels on the Atlantic waters by 9 am or so
and on Delaware Bay shortly thereafter. A cold front will move
through the waters this afternoon. Strong to severe storms are
possible along the front, with strong/erratic wind gusts likely
in their proximity. Thereafter, winds will switch to the west
and increase to gale- force. A burst of winds in excess of 40 kt
is likely during the mid to late afternoon.
By this evening, winds are expected to diminish but may remain
near or slightly above gale criteria. However, a second surge of
stronger winds is likely overnight, continuing through the day
Friday. Winds are expected to exceed 40 kt at times once again
during this period. Winds are forecast to diminish slowly Friday
night, but gale criteria will likely continue to be met through
the night.
With the above considerations, have extended the gale warning
from 2 pm this afternoon through 6 am Saturday for the Atlantic
waters and Delaware Bay.
Seas will generally range from 3 to 6 feet through Friday
(lower on Delaware Bay, though certainly quite choppy).
Outlook...
Saturday...Advisory conditions will likely continue, with west
to northwest winds 15 to 25 kt with gusts to 30 kt. Seas 3 to 5
feet.
Saturday night...Sub-advisory winds/seas anticipated.
Sunday...South winds increasing to advisory levels. Seas
approaching advisory criteria late in the day.
Sunday night and Monday...South to southwest winds increasing
further, possibly approaching gale criteria on Monday. Seas 5 to
10 feet.
&&
.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
All coastal flood advisories have expired or will expire at 6 am.
Another round of spotty minor coastal flooding is expected for
the next high tide (this morning on the Atlantic coast; early
this afternoon on upper Delaware Bay and the tidal Delaware
River), but given the marginal nature of the threat, have
decided to hold off on the issuance of more advisories at this
point. Although it is quite possible a forecast site or two
reaches advisory criteria, widespread advisory-level flooding
does not appear overly likely at this point.
Once the cold front moves through this afternoon, the coastal
flood threat should end.
