SYNOPSIS
High pressure builds down out of Canada, across the Great Lakes region and into the Mid Atlantic region tonight through Wednesday. The high builds offshore Wednesday night and remains through Thursday night. The high finally begins to move out to sea Friday, before a warm front lifts northward across the area Friday night. A cold front will follow for Friday night into Saturday as low pressure lifts to the northeast out of the Ohio Valley Friday and into New England through Saturday. High pressure returns for Sunday into Monday of next week.
NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/
High pressure from the Great Lakes build in tonight and keeps the fair weather across our area. Skies will be mostly clear with just high clouds at times. The new airmass is several degrees cooler that the previous one so low tonight will drop into the low/mid 40s for NW counties and upper 40s to low 50s elsewhere. For Delmarva and SE NJ lows will probably end up closer to 55. Winds will be Northwest to North at 5 to 10 mph this evening and less than 5 mph overnight.
Wednesday, fair weather continues with mostly sunny skies. High temps will range from the upper 60s for the Poconos to the mid 70s for metro Philadelphia and srn NJ. Light Northeast to East winds expected. Highs will be noticeably cooler (60s) along the shore areas with an onshore flow developing/strengthening by afternoon.
SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/
High pressure will build offshore beginning Wednesday night and remain near the are through Thursday night. This will keep fair weather in the forecast through Thursday night, with temperatures above normal.
LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/
The high will begin to move out to sea through the day Friday, before a warm front lifts across the area later Friday into Friday night. A couple of short wave/vorticity impulses may move across the area during the day, which could lead to a few shower during the afternoon north of the warm front. By Friday night into, a cold front will approach and move across the area as an area of low pressure moves out of the Ohio Valley Friday night and into New England through Saturday. Shower chances will increase Friday night into Saturday, and with some weak instability, there is an isolated chance of a few thunderstorms.
As PWs increase to over 1.5 inches in some areas, some period of moderate to heavy rain will be possible. Above normal temperatures will remain for Friday into Saturday.
The cold front pushes offshore Saturday night, before high pressure builds into the Mid Atlantic region Sunday into Monday, before shifting offshore Monday night and out to sea Tuesday.
Dry weather will return for Saturday night through Tuesday, and after a brief period of near normal temperatures Saturday night int Sunday, above normal temperatures return for Sunday night through Tuesday.
