SYNOPSIS
A weak low will develop off the Carolina coast tonight and move offshore through tomorrow. High pressure will build in for the rest of the week into the first half of the weekend, though a weak system may clip the western part of the area Thursday morning. A strong cold front approaches on Sunday and passes on Sunday night, with high pressure building in for the early part of next week.

NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/
A slow moving cold front pushed through most of the region earlier this afternoon and will be associated with a digging, positively tilted upper trough that moves in overnight. A secondary center of low pressure will develop off the coast of the Carolinas this evening and a north to northwest pressure gradient will tighten between it and building high pressure to our southwest, keeping at least a light breeze in place overnight. A shortwave embedded in the trough will cross through just south Delmarva around midnight, and we'll also be placed just on the periphery of the left exit region of a departing jet streak. This may be enough to squeeze out some precipitation in southeast PA/Delmarva, but with forcing from the surface low likely a good distance offshore and near surface moisture still lacking, not expecting coverage to be too widespread. That said, forecast soundings do show the entire profile below freezing with surface temperatures hovering right around the freezing mark in southeast PA, so if any wet bulb effects occur with the near- surface dry air, some flurries/light snow showers may result; it will likely be too warm across Delmarva for anything but rain. With lingering mid-level moisture, clouds should be around overnight though there may be some breaks as surface ridging noses in from the southwest. Lows will bottom out in the low to mid 30s.

Heading into the day Wednesday we could see some of the light precip from the aforementioned shortwave trough and coastal low linger into Wednesday morning, but impacts will remain limited.
The best chances for seeing any precip will be over Delmarva and far southern NJ towards Philly however confidence is not high on precip with a light sprinkle or a few flurries being the most likely. With high pressure starting to build, the northwest pressure gradient should be modest leading to gusty winds especially across the Shore.

SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/
High pressure will ridge northward from the Southeastern US Wednesday night, helping clear skies and allow winds to decouple.
This favorable radiational cooling setup will allow temperatures to drop into the 20s as a result.

Most of the region will see high pressure dominate into Thursday as well, though a weakening shortwave embedded within an upper level jet streak will move across southern New England and clip the Poconos and Lehigh Valley with some light rain/snow showers or flurries. Any precip here is not expected to become impactful and snow accumulations, if any, should be a tenth or two of an inch at most. Otherwise, areas outside of the Lehigh Valley/Poconos will be dry under mostly cloudy to overcast skies. Temperatures will remain about 5 degrees below climo during the afternoon with highs in the mid 30s to mid 40s once again.

High pressure will continue to dominate into Thursday night with dry conditions expected as skies clear out. Temperatures will be slightly warmer due to low-level flow turning more west/southwesterly and weak warm air advection setting up. Cloud cover hanging around for the first portion of the evening will also help in keeping things slightly warmer. Lows will get down into the mid to upper 20s and low 30s.

A mid-level ridge is expected to move over the region on Friday, which will keep the region dry and bring warmer temperatures. Should be a nice December day to close out the week with some sun and warmth with temperatures for the most part getting into the low to mid 50s.

LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/
The strong ridge will continue to build in Friday Night into Saturday. The ridge continues to amplify offshore Saturday night and Sunday as a trough digs across the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley and shifts eastward, taking on a negative tilt as it approaches our area. Rather robust cyclogenesis looks to occur over the Ohio Valley, with the quickly developing surface low traversing the upper Great Lakes, moving into Ontario by sometime Sunday. This will drop what looks to be a relatively strong cold front through our region late Sunday. The trough and associated cold front is forecast to move through the region Sunday night. What looks to be weak transient ridging or at least zonal flow should be in place for Monday.

In terms of sensible weather or impacts, things should be fairly benign Friday Night and Saturday with continued warming bringing afternoon highs into the mid to upper 50s for Saturday. The strengthening low across the Midwest and associated cold front will begin to approach on Sunday. The 12z deterministic and ensemble suite of guidance showed a later arrival of the cold front, and thus PoPs were pushed back slightly. Highest PoPs at this time are late Sunday afternoon and into the first half of Sunday Night, though there remains some uncertainty given it is in the day 5-day 6 timeframe. Regardless, this early winter cold front could be a bit dynamic as surface low pressure deepens over the Great Lakes and tilting becomes negative, allowing strong warm air advection and moisture advection to ensue.

The main concerns appear to be strong winds and heavy rain. A dynamic wind field with a strong low-level jet will likely be present. Even the NBM 25th percentile (the lower end for what could possibly occur) for maximum gusts on Sunday was showing gusts near 40 MPH across the region. As far as rainfall, still a long way to go and a lot of uncertainty, but worth noting that the general ensemble mean was showing totals near an inch. Will need to continue monitoring this system for any changes as there are signs that this could be an impactful system. Highs on Sunday could reach into the 60s, especially if the cold front comes through on Sunday Night. As you could probably guess from the previous sentence, this will be an all rain event as the entire area will be firmly in the warm sector as the front approaches. The beginning of next week will be quiet as high pressure tries to build in from the southwest behind the departing cold front. Temperatures will be closer to seasonal norms.
