A prolonged stretch of hot and humid weather over the mid-Atlantic continued on August 12. Once again, as in the prior two days, weak lee side surface troughing over Pennsylvania aided in afternoon convective development in an environment of high instability but low shear. Scattered thunderstorms produced a few instances of damaging winds over eastern Pennsylvania and northern New Jersey.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ
351 PM EDT Thu Aug 12 2021
.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure remains in control of our area through Friday, before
a cold front slowly progresses southward into Saturday. The front
then stalls to our south as high pressure builds across the
Northeast early next week. By mid-week, the front then pushes
northward as the remnants of Fred move up the Appalachians.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Hot and humid conditions remain over the region with temperatures in
the mid 90s and surface dew points generally in the low to mid 70s.
Heat Index values range from 100-110, and Heat Advisories and
Excessive Heat Warnings remain in effect.
Surface-based CAPE values range from 2500-3500 J/kg in the northern
half of the forecast area and from 3500-4500 J/kg in the southern
half. DCAPE values range from 1000-1500 J/kg. There is little wind
shear.
There is a cluster of showers and thunderstorms moving through
central New York and is approaching southeast Pennsylvania. Model
trends have this approaching in the evening hours, mainly after 8
pm, but this looks slow, so will bump up PoPs for this afternoon and
into the early evening. Anything that does make it to the local area
looks to dissipate as it passes through the Fall Line, so will keep
highest PoPs over the southern Poconos, far northwest New Jersey,
and the Lehigh Valley down to Berks county. Heavy rain and gusty
winds possible with any storms.
Very warm and humid tonight with lows in the 70s, and not much lower
than 80 in Philadelphia.
Another hot and humid day on tap, though there is some concern about
just how hot and humid it will get north and west of the Fall Line.
Will not issue a Heat Advisory for Carbon and Monroe Counties.
Although it will be marginal for Sussex county, New Jersey, will
go ahead and extend the Heat Advisory through Friday, given
that it will be a several day event, and the heat index
approaches 105 during the day. Elsewhere, though, expecting
widespread 105-110 degree max heat index values. For far
southern New Jersey and Delmarva, though, criteria is higher for
Excessive Heat Warning, so will keep heat Advisories in effect
for those areas. Excessive Heat Warnings remain in effect
elsewhere through Friday.
Some shortwave energy may touch off some mid day showers and
thunderstorms west of the Fall Line, and that will have an impact on
temperatures and dew points. Otherwise, models seem to be holding
convection off until after 6 pm. Will carry chance PoPs for the
northern and western zones late in the period.
&&
.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
A cold front will be pushing southward through the area Saturday,
though some disagreement remains as to how quickly it pushes out of
the area with the GFS remaining more progressive than the EC. The
severe threat should be mostly over Saturday with added cloud cover
keeping temperatures down a bit from Friday evening's convection
with the greater focus with this system being along the pre-frontal
trough Friday. The front should also push southward by the time peak
heating is underway in the late afternoon. Highs will still make it
into the upper 80s to around 90 just ahead of the front, but a
faster solution would yield slightly cooler highs. By Sunday, it's
going to feel amazing with highs around 80 and dew points dropping
off into the low 60s to upper 50s across the Lehigh Valley and
Poconos. This will result in pleasant heat index values only sitting
from 80-83.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Again, no significant changes made for the extended forecast into
next week with high pressure building across the Northeast.
Meanwhile, the front that passes through our area this weekend will
stall across the Virginia-North Carolina border for the first half
of the week. Will watch the remnants of what is now Tropical
Depression Fred as the global guidance wants to take it northward
along the spine of the Appalachians towards the Mid-Atlantic by
Wednesday.
A surface low looks to track to our northwest just north of the
Great Lakes Tuesday into Thursday. This will begin to pull the
stalled front northward as a warm front across Ohio and western
Pennsylvania Tuesday and Wednesday. Depending on how the remnants of
Fred interact with this, we may see the chance for some scattered
showers and thunderstorms Monday and Tuesday afternoons, but chances
look better Tuesday and Wednesday. Highs look seasonable in the low
80s Monday through Thursday.
