Fxus61 kctp 260846 afdctp area forecast discussion national weather service state college pa 446 am edt Mon aug 26 2019 Synopsis High pressure will gradually loosen its grip on the region as a weakening front approaches from the west. The cold front will move through the region Wednesday followed by drier weather for the end of the week. Near term through tonight Another cool night with valley fog, the last of several in a recent string. Satellite shows patchy low clouds creeping up the east slopes of the appalachians into my swrn zones, as well fog filling the valleys of much of central and northern pa. These should lift and burn off early, leaving another partly to mostly sunny day, though clouds will tend to increase once again this afternoon in the strengthening southerly flow. Highs in the 70s today will average about 3-6 deg cooler than late august norms. Clouds and humidity will gradually increase overnight with the chance of some light rain or drizzle developing as higher pwat air advects eastward. QPF will be negligible however with the gefs SREF and HPC all showing perhaps a tenth of an inch or less overnight. Short term Tuesday Tuesday looks like a mainly cloudy day with a few showers scattered about. Despite the approaching frontal system, the upper trough is forecast to be shearing out, with weakly rising heights aloft for much of the day. This usually doesn't bode well for widespread significant rain. In fact the normally wet gfs and the NAM show a mostly dry afternoon while the ecmwf canadian do have at least some spotty light showers. I used blended MOS pops which show a small chance of showers, mainly in the morning. Highs will again be on the cool side, not much different than today. Long term Tuesday night through Sunday Models are in decent accord in bringing a cold front through the cwa Wednesday as a weakening feature. The system is made to

degenerate as it moves east and encounters unfavorable low level shear associated with a sprawling offshore low. Showers will still be widespread with mainly daytime chances for scattered showers and thunderstorms, but overall QPF should be on the order of .25" - .50" on average. Dry weather will return for Thursday. Northern areas are made to flirt with some light showers or sprinkles with another weak cold front Friday. The parent upper trough is progged to be very flat and not terribly moist so I generally went lower than the superblend pops to show a small chance of rain for northern areas. Another fast moving low amplitude mid level shortwave could bring showers for Saturday night and Sunday, but it's another low confidence forecast being so far out and given the model differences. Aviation 08z Monday through Friday For the 06z tafs, not a lot of change from the earlier package. Left mention of some low clds and fog in the fcst. Still a decent amt of wind just above the ground and the dewpoints are still low. Thus the fog may be limited. Today will be another dry day. There could be a gusty wind toward sunset at ipt, given southeast flow and the mountain nearby. Covered this with a extra group. Some lower clouds possible by sunrise on Tuesday, will be looking at this more. For the most part, not much expected in the way of lower clds before 06z tue. Outlook Tue... Am low CIGS possible central and eastern airspace. Spotty light rain possible. Wed... Am low CIGS possible. Sct pm showers t-storms. Thu-fri... No sig wx expected. Ctp watches warnings advisories None. Synopsis... La corte near term... La corte short term... La corte long term... La corte aviation... Martin

These are not intended to be fact, they are my opinions. 4) Small programs that generate result presented on a web page. Like any computer program, these may and in some cases do have errors. Almost all of these also make simplifying assumptions so they are not totally accurate even if there are no errors. Please verify all results. 5) Weather information is from numerious of sources and is presented automatically. It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program.
