Synopsis for the coastal waters from sandy hook nj to fenwick island de and for delaware bay - High pressure lingers through the remainder of the day, before a series of fronts and low pressure systems affect the east coast Wednesday through the end of the week. High pressure looks to return to end the weekend and start the new week.

Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ 940 PM EDT Sat May 11 2024

SYNOPSIS
Weak high pressure over the region will move offshore this evening. Low pressure centered over Lake Huron early this afternoon will move eastward through this evening into Sunday.
High pressure builds south of the Mid-Atlantic region Sunday night into Monday. Another area of low pressure brings more unsettled weather by the middle of next week.

NEAR TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY/
For the rest of tonight, initial band of showers has mostly dissipated, but more wait in the wings as the next low approaches. The low will be accompanied by a cold front, but the overall strength of the system will be weakening as it nears. While initial band of showers has waned, still think widespread rain showers will move across the region overnight, especially north and west of the Delaware Valley where better forcing will be present. Rainfall up to a quarter of an inch is expected. Lows will be in the mid to upper 40s.

H5 trough with associated vorticity advection will be moving over the region on Sunday. With additional lift provided by weak warm air advection, Sunday looks to be a rather wet and cool day. Maximum temperatures are expected in the upper 50s to lower 60s. Have added drizzle and mist/patchy fog to the forecast for late tonight and Sunday given persistent southeasterly upslope flow, cloud cover and moisture.

SHORT TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/
Sunday night will feature improving conditions and the surface low continues to move away and the upper trough passes through.
It's possible that skies may become partly cloudy late giving aurora viewing possibilities. One possibility will bring patchy fog to the area if conditions become clear overnight.

Monday/Monday night... High pressure arrives during the day and a partly sunny day is expected. Temperatures will be close to normal for early May with highs in the low/mid 70s and lows (For Tue morning) in the low/mid 50s. Clouds will increase over the area Monday night.

Tuesday... Another slow moving low pressure approaches the region. Increasing clouds thru the morning with rains arriving during the day. Most models seem to agree with the overall scenario and we'll continue with chance pops for the morning then mostly likely pops for the afternoon. It's possible that the furthest east areas may escape rains until late afternoon.
Temperatures will remain seasonable with mostly low 70s for highs and 50s for lows.

LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/
Rather unsettled much of the long term as low pressure slowly deepens while moving up the Ohio Valley and then ambling across the Middle Atlantic region. Likely/categorical pops beginning Tue night and continuing Wednesday before scaling back Wed night. After a period of lesser pops Thu into Friday morning, more showers/rains overspread the region for next weekend. We'll have chance pops for Fri night and into Sat for now. There enough differences between the operational models to have less confidence with regards to next weekends fcst attm.

Normal high temperatures for our region this time of year are in the low/mid 70s with upper 60s for the southern Poconos.
We'll arrive close to these values much of the week with readings perhaps a degree or two below normal Wed and above normal for Thu/Fri. Lows will be in the 50s most days.

AVIATION /02Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas...

Tonight...VFR early, then ceilings will be dropping into the 1500 to 3000 ft range as rain showers move into the area after 06Z Lehigh Valley and Poconos, and after 09Z for the remainder of the region. Visibility may drop to 3-5SM in drizzle/mist/heavier showers late tonight. Southeast winds 5-10 kt.

Sunday...Ceilings high IFR to low MVFR and generally MVFR vsby all locations with showers and drizzle/mist most of the day.
East to southeast winds around 10 knots. Some improvement possible late.

Outlook...

Sunday Night...Conditions may improve to MVFR or even VFR briefly in the evening but patchy fog thereafter may drop them back to IFR.

Monday through Tuesday...No significant weather expected.

Tuesday Night through Wednesday night...Sub-VFR conditions expected with occasional showers.

Thursday... VFR probable.

MARINE

Southeast winds around 10-15 kt. Seas 3-4ft.

Outlook...

Sunday night through Monday...No marine headlines expected.
Fair.

Tuesday through Wednesday...SCA conditions possible (30-40%) as wind gusts get near 25 kt. Seas will get near 5 feet on Wednesday. Occasional showers.

TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING
Coastal Flood Advisories were issued for tonight's high tide for coastal zones from Ocean County on south and for communities along the Delaware Bay. Minor tidal flooding is expected with some inundation of roadways possible. Elsewhere, spotty minor flooding is expected within the tidal Delaware River, tidal Raritan Bay, and along the NJ coast north of Ocean County.

Spotty minor flooding is also expected with tomorrow morning's high tide within the Chesapeake Bay. Some of the guidance suggests an advisory may be needed, but have elected to hold off for now. Stay tuned to the forecast for any further updates.
