SYNOPSIS
A wave of low pressure offshore moves away overnight. Weak high pressure arrives for Saturday before another low moves through Saturday night and Sunday. High pressure builds south of the Mid-Atlantic region Sunday night into Monday. Another area of low pressure may affect the area with more unsettled weather by the middle of next week.
NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/
The offshore low will continue to move away tonight and the upper trough to the west will swing through overnight. Until that happens, occasional showers and low clouds will be across the area. As drier air arrives aloft, the precipitation may end as some drizzle overnight. Fog is possible too if breaks develop in the overcast. We'll taper pops down from W to E overnight and mention patchy fog in the fcst. The exact details of the overnight improvement are not certain attm. By morning, lows will drop into the low 40s up across the N/W areas while mid/upper 40s will be for the other areas. Winds will decrease and remain Northwest to East at 5 to 10 mph.
For Saturday, a more tranquil weather day is expected with weak high pressure building in. There may still be some low clouds or fog across the area early, but thru the morning partly sunny skies will develop across most areas. By afternoon, the sun will mix with clouds at times. A couple showers may spill over the western areas by late afternoon. High temperatures will be below normal with high only in the low/mid 60s for most spots. Highs in the 50s will be across the higher elevations of the Poconos.
Winds will be Northeast at 5 to 10 mph.
SHORT TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/
A digging trough moving through the Great Lakes and an associated wave of low pressure at the surface will approach and push through Saturday Night into Sunday. Expecting more rain and a relatively dreary Sunday. Some elevated instability works in, especially over Delmarva, so can't rule out a rumble of thunder, though not expecting any severe weather. Rainfall amounts from a tenth to a half an inch are expected, with areas north and west of the Philadelphia metro getting into the upper end of that spectrum. It will be quite raw out with periods of rain and temperatures in the upper 50s/low 60s for Mother's Day.
We begin to dry out on Sunday Night as the trough moves offshore and ridging builds in from the west. Expecting a spread of 40s for overnight lows to close out the weekend.
A nice start to the week is expected with a broad area of high pressure working in. Temperatures moderate back to near-normal levels for mid-May, with low to mid 70s expected for most. The exception being the southern Poconos and along the coast, where highs will stay in the 60s. Skies will be mostly sunny with some passing clouds at times.
LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/
Long term period will be marked by a couple systems moving through over the work week, with temperatures hovering near normal for mid- May. Looking at some of the NAEFS ensemble probabilities and percentiles, the two main systems next week look rather unimpactful at this time, just bringing some rain to the region. Flooding and severe potential looks quite low currently.
Ridging moves offshore Monday night with a shortwave moving across the Ohio Valley towards the Mid-Atlantic. An area of low pressure will take a similar track, eventually moving over or just south of the region on Tuesday Night. Rain chances increase by midday, with both deterministic and ensemble guidance showing the bulk of the rain coming in the overnight hours of Tuesday. There could be some embedded thunder as well.
Showers could linger through the day on Wednesday but things try to turn drier Wednesday night into Thursday as a ridge builds in. The tranquil weather does not last for long as another system moves in for the end of the week.
AVIATION /19Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas...
thru the evening... Mostly MVFR conditions across the terminals so far early this afternoon. These conditions will probably not change much except for a few lower VSBYS in rain showers which are moving thru the area. East winds mostly around 10 knots with gusts around 20 knots at times, especially KACY. Medium confid.
tonight... less certainty with regards to how things improve overnight. Not a strong push of dry air, but the low and trough will move away and rains/drizzle will end overnight. These will likely be fog at most terminals with the added moisture from todays rains. Any clearing could result in widespread fog. Light E/NE winds. Low confid overall.
Saturday... Any lingering low clouds/fog early will diminish 12Z/13Z followed by VFR conditions. Clouds will increase during the afternoon. Light winds will become Southeast at 5 to 10 knots during the afternoon. Low/medium confid.
Outlook...
Saturday Night through Sunday Night...MVFR/IFR conditions expected with low ceilings and reduced visibility with periods of rain moving through.
Monday through Monday Night..VFR. No significant weather.
Tuesday...VFR to start but sub-VFR conditions likely (60-70%) later in the day as showers move in.
Tuesday Night through Wednesday...Sub-VFR conditions expected with showers. Chance of thunderstorms (15-25%) Tuesday night into Wednesday.
MARINE
We'll continue with the SCA flags for now. Winds will decrease this evening and the Delaware Bay will likely come down at 8PM if not before. The SCA for the ocean will continue into Saturday with seas remaining above 5 ft thru that period. Showers and then some drizzle overnight, Fog possible. Fair weather expected for Saturday.
Outlook...
Saturday Night through Monday...No marine headlines expected.
Monday Night through Wednesday...SCA conditions possible (30-40%) as wind gusts get near 25 kt. Seas will get near 5 feet on Wednesday.
TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING
The new moon occurred Tuesday, May 7th, and this is resulting in high astronomical tides. An onshore has developed and will remain thru tonight. While the astronomical tides will be gradually lowering as we get farther away from the new moon, the onshore will increase the surge values at least some. With the peak onshore flow leading up to tonight's high tide cycle, guidance continues to indicate the threat for moderate tidal flooding for portions of Atlantic coastal New Jersey and Delaware, as well as Delaware Bay with the high tide cycle tonight into early Saturday morning high tide cycle. With increased confidence of a long duration of moderate to strong onshore flow through the day today and water levels/surge values continuing to run high with the latest high tide cycle last night into early this morning, the Coastal Flood Warning for tonight's high tide has been expanded to include all areas previously covered by the Coastal Flood Watch. Spotty minor coastal flooding will occur with todays (lower) high tide today within the Warning area.
Outside of the Warning area, in adjacent areas of the Atlantic coast of New Jersey, Delaware Bay, and the tidal Delaware River, another round of widespread minor coastal flooding is expected with the high tide cycle tonight into early Saturday morning. Therefore, another Coastal Flood Advisory has been issued for these areas for the tonight into early Saturday high tide cycle.
The high tide cycle tonight looks to be the peak of the coastal flooding impacts area-wide, but additional minor coastal flooding is forecast with the evening/overnight high tide Saturday night into early Sunday.
Flooding is not expected at this time for our Maryland zones along the Chesapeake through Saturday.
