SYNOPSIS
Low pressure over southeastern Pennsylvania early this afternoon will move offshore this evening. High pressure builds south of the Mid- Atlantic region tonight into Monday. Another area of low pressure brings more unsettled weather by the middle of next week.
NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/
Low pressure currently southeastern Pennsylvania has an associated occluded front southeast into the southern Delmarva.
Rain to the north and east of the boundary is diminishing as the surface low pivots offshore by this evening. Scattered showers and thunderstorms over the eastern shore of Maryland will continue east-southeastward for the rest of the afternoon to be offshore 20Z-22Z. Stronger cells will contain small hail and wind gusts to 30 knots.
Any shower/thunderstorm activity will quickly wane with the loss of surface-based instability by early evening. Clouds will diminish rapidly around 00Z as drier air filters in. Patchy fog will form overnight with radiational cooling and light winds.
Low temps will be in the 40s.
Quiet weather makes a brief return Monday with partly sunny skies and temperatures peaking in the lower to mid 70s under broad scale subsidence.
SHORT TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/
The brief reprieve ends shortly though as the ridge breaks down ahead of an advance cutoff low pressure system moving through the Ohio Valley region. With a modest surge of PVA and height falls, there should be ample lift to support fairly widespread showers across the region Tuesday afternoon through Wednesday.
Severe progs aren't very supportive so we should be looking at more of the typical spring/summer showers with maybe a rumble of thunder and brief periods of moderate rainfall. PW isn't forecast to be high with respect to climo as the EFI is remarkable average for the week across the forecast region.
Ensemble guidance suggests about a 40% of seeing 0.4" or more with only a 15-20% chance of more than an inch. With rivers back towards normal streamflows and the rainfall not expected to fall over a short period of time, there are currently no flooding concerns.
LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/
Heading towards the end of the week the forecast will be highly dependent on how quickly the low pressure system through the middle of the week departs. There's considerable spread in guidance clusters from the ensemble suites this morning mostly dependent on timing. So the forecast is subject to change somewhat dramatically over the next few days until guidance becomes more consistent. Eventually another system will bring widely scattered showers but for the given reason just mentioned, confidence isn't sufficiently high on whether that is Sat or Sun. Thus the forecast call for low to moderate changes (30-40%) both days with slightly higher chances on Saturday.
Temps through the long term should be fairly seasonable in the low to mid 70s with overnight lows in the 50s most days.
AVIATION /17Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas...

An area of light rain over NJ will continue through mid afternoon before dissipating. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will move through Delmarva this afternoon. SE winds around 5-10 kt.
Tonight...Any lingering low ceilings will become few-skc 00Z-02Z. Ceilings 1-2K ft form once again after 06Z in southeast PA, northern Delmarva, and inland NJ with moisture trapped at loe levels and light winds.
Monday...Low clouds and fog burn off 12Z-14Z then VFR.
Outlook...
Monday night through Tuesday...No significant weather expected.

Tuesday through Wednesday...SCA conditions possible (30-40%) as wind gusts get near 25 kt. Significant wave heights approach 6 feet Wednesday. Occasional showers.
