Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ
1226 PM EDT Fri Jul 10 2020
.SYNOPSIS...
Tropical Storm Fay will continue to work its way northward near
the coast of New Jersey this afternoon, and into eastern New
York and western New England tonight. Behind the system, another
area of low pressure is forecast to drag a cold front through
the region on Saturday night. An additional disturbance is
forecast to move through the region Monday into Tuesday before
high pressure builds across the eastern U.S., ushering in drier
conditions.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
Tropical Storm Fay was centered about 25 miles east of the
Delaware Beaches at noon. The center is forecast to move
northward along the New Jersey coast this afternoon and through
the New York City metropolitan area this evening.
We continue to expect the main threat in our region to be heavy
rain. Widespread totals in the 2 to 4 inch range are
anticipated with locally higher amounts. Our entire forecast
area is under a Flash Flood Watch.
Winds along the coast will gust in excess of 40 MPH. Meanwhile,
the wind gusts in northeastern Maryland and eastern
Pennsylvania should peak generally in the 25 to 30 MPH range.
There remains the potential for an isolated weak tornado or two
in the coastal counties of New Jersey as the storm works its
way northward due to the increased shear in that area.
The rain will end gradually from south to north during the
afternoon and evening hours.
High temperatures should favor the 75 to 80 degree range.
&&
.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
Tropical Storm Fay will be quickly heading north across New
England Saturday morning thanks to an approaching shortwave from
the west. This shortwave looks rather potent for this time of
year with both the ECMWF and GFS showing a ~40 m height
fall/rise couplet across the Mid-Atlantic Saturday afternoon.
This wave will also begin to eject to the northeast Saturday
afternoon and take on a negative tilt. This will place
northeastern NJ in a RRQ. Wind profiles are also interesting
with SFC to 6 km bulk shear values around 30 kts. Hodographs do
show a veer-back-veer profile which wouldn't be extremely
helpful for updrafts. Instability wise, ML CAPEs are forecast to
be around 2000 J/kg (NAM) with maximum values over the NJ
Coastal Plain. Given the instability, shear, and lift mentioned
above there is a threat for severe threat. Storm mode with this
appears to start out as discrete due to mean wind and bulk shear
vectors being out of the southwest in a modestly wide warm
sector. It appears by late Saturday afternoon into evening
modest surface convergence might form near PA/ NJ which would
favor more clustering as bulk shear vectors would be oblique to
the boundary.
Threat wise, damaging wind gusts appear to be the primary
hazard as dry air in the mid-levels remains consistent across
both GFS and NAM forecast soundings. Surface delta theta-e
values are around -25 which is rather favorable. A secondary
threat would be hail if storms remain discrete longer. High
temperatures Saturday will be in the low 90s as 850 mb
temperatures are around 20 degrees C.
Saturday night into early Sunday morning the shortwave will
eject northeast with a weak cold front moving through the area.
Convective coverage will also quickly wane Saturday evening as
daytime heating is lost.
&&
.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Sunday morning the shortwave from Tuesday will be over New
England with a long wave trough axis remaining centered over the
Ohio Valley. Sunday afternoon, most of the area will likely
stay dry in the wake of Saturday's departing shortwave. Another
shortwave located over Lake Michigan Sunday morning will rotate
through the base of the trough axis Sunday evening helping to
initiate another round of showers and thunderstorms. Finally on
Monday the long wave trough axis will start to translate east as
a strong upper level low over western Canada slowly heads east.
This eastward movement will bring a final shortwave southeast
across the Great Lakes region towards the Mid-Atlantic. The wave
will cross the area Monday afternoon finally bringing a slow
end to the precipitation from west to east. PWATs behind the
wave will be around 1.20", but dewpoints will only slightly fall
off. 850 mb temperatures also stay around 15 degrees C, so high
temperatures Monday and Tuesday remain in the upper 80s.
Tuesday into Wednesday the wave will head northeast towards New
England with weak subsidence occuring in its wake. The latest
runs of the ECMWF and GFS show a weak wave diving southeast on
the back side of the trough axis, but think precipitation
chances are limited here. The main reason for this is the dry
air.
Wednesday into Thursday, rather zonal flow sets up over the
region as mid-level ridging builds across the southeastern
United States, with a potent mid-level low located near the
Hudson Bay. This in general, would favor below normal
precipitation and above normal temperatures. A slightly stronger
ridge, or weaker upper level low would alter the forecast
correspondingly drier or wetter. Expect high temperatures in low
90s Wednesday and Thursday.

.AVIATION /16Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas.
This afternoon...Mainly MVFR/IFR conditions expected with
periods of heavy rain. Scattered thunderstorms are possible.
Northeast winds around 10 knots at KABE and KRDG and 15 to 25
knots with gusts up to 40 knots near the coast. Generally
moderate confidence with low confidence on timing and location
of thunderstorms.
Tonight...Mainly MVFR conditions expected with possible
improvement to VFR after 06Z. Chance of showers through this
evening and patchy fog possible overnight. West to southwest
winds around 5 to 10 knots. Moderate confidence with low
confidence on timing of improving conditions.

&&
.MARINE...
Conditions have deteriorated on the Atlantic coastal waters and
lower Delaware Bay as Tropical Storm Fay continues to affect
the area. There will be tropical-storm force winds with
rain/squalls and occasional lightning moving gradually
northward. The threat for waterspouts exists today given high to
extreme low-level shear and marginal instability.
Winds are likely to remain in the small craft advisory category
on Delaware Bay, so the advisory remains in place here.
Conditions are expected to improve slowly this evening and
tonight, as rain will become more showery and flow will become
offshore on the south side of the system. Tropical storm force
winds/gusts may linger for much of the night, though a trend
downward with time should be expected.
Seas will range from 6 to 10 feet on our ocean waters with
locally higher wave heights. There will be only a gradual
decrease as the system departs.
Outlook...
Saturday...Seas may linger around 5 feet for much of the day,
but winds will likely become sub-advisory. A chance of storms.
Saturday night through Tuesday...Sub-advisory winds/seas
expected. A chance of afternoon/evening storms, primarily on
Monday and Tuesday.
Rip Currents...
Conditions have deteriorated due to Tropical Storm Fay. With
rough seas and a longer-period southeasterly swell, the threat
for the formation of dangerous rip currents is high today. The
flow will become somewhat offshore in the wake of the system on
Saturday, though winds will become more southerly/southwesterly
by afternoon. With seas remaining elevated and residual swell
from the tropical system, at least a moderate risk of rip
currents is anticipated for Saturday.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
Heavy rains from Tropical Storm Fay will cause flooding today.
Expected rainfall is from 2 to 4 inches with local amounts up to
6 inches possible.
One hour flash flood guidance values across south and central
New Jersey are between 2-3 inches while across the Lehigh Valley
the values are as low as 3/4 of an inch. With the tropical
air mass moving in, several of the CAMs are indicating the
potential that may be exceeded. While the 6 hour flash flood
guidance is between 4 to 6 inches, the 7-day percent of normal
precipitation plot from AHPS showed a few areas in southern NJ
and the Delmarva Peninsula with 200 to 400 percent of normal
rainfall.
&&
.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
With Tropical Storm Fay moving slowly northward today
near/along our coast, a period of stronger onshore flow will
occur to the north of the cyclone center. Though this would
often be concerning for the potential of coastal flooding, a
number of factors are mitigating a more substantive threat to
the coast. First, the lunar cycle is out of phase with the
event, which results in tidal departures of 2+ feet required for
minor coastal flooding. Second, the developing tropical storm
is not intensifying quickly (and will likely plateau as it moves
northward into colder and colder waters today) and is moving
reasonably steadily. Given these factors, onshore flow will not
be especially strong for long, so any associated surge should be
minimal (i.e., generally less than 2 feet).
Nevertheless, we are a little concerned models are underplaying
the tidal departures for tonight's high tide (the higher of the
two astronomical tides in the next 24 hours). A transition to
offshore flow will likely begin around this time, but this is
usually not enough time to counter the effects of antecedent
onshore flow. As a result, our latest forecast is well above
model guidance for tonight's high tide, but still short of minor
flooding criteria. Future adjustments are likely based on
observations/model trends this morning.
One other consideration: Flow will likely develop a southerly
fetch on Saturday as Fay departs to our north/northeast. This
may result in higher water levels on the eastern shore of
Chesapeake Bay during the weekend. However, once again, we are
not currently forecasting tidal departures sufficient to produce
flooding in these areas. This will require close monitoring
with future updates, though.
