Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ 143 PM EDT Sat Jun 15 2024

SYNOPSIS
High pressure centered over the Great Lakes this morning will move off the New England coast on Sunday, and then become stationary just off the East Coast on Monday. The high is forecast to strengthen and build westward next week eventually to cover much of the eastern United States.

NEAR TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY/
1025mb high pressure centered over Lake Huron early this afternoon will track across the Northeast tonight and off the New England coast Sunday. Wind flow around the high will result in a northerly flow through tonight, except for onshore seabreezes at the coastline. Winds become east to southeasterly on Sunday. The high and associated subsidence will keep the sky mainly clear through Sunday.

SHORT TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/
With time, the surface high will migrate eastwards as a warm front from the southwest lifts northwards. While this warm front looks to cross through our region around the time frame of early Monday, the surface high pressure offshore looks to still hold influence over us into Tuesday.

The warm front posed to pass through early Monday will bring decent warm air advection to the region, ushering the start of higher temperatures for the week. Highs mainly in the upper 80s to low 90s anticipated for Monday. The warm front is not expected to bring any precipitation to the region.

A sea-breeze will likely develop on Sunday given the weak synoptic flow in the forecast. This sea-breeze could penetrate well in-land by the late afternoon into evening hours.

LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/
Summary...Few changes to the long term. Hot but mainly dry forecast.

The synoptic pattern and evolution is nearly certain for the long term. An upper-level ridge over the eastern CONUS Monday will build to the north with time. By the later Tuesday time frame, the strong ridge will look to be centered directly over the northeastern CONUS and will likely stay in place for quite a bit. The ensembles suggest it is not until around the time frame of Thursday/Friday that the ridge and its associated axis will begin to break down and flatten out some.

We could see heights of 594-600 dam over us Tuesday into at least Thursday. At the surface level, high pressure centered offshore looks to largely control the region into the end of the week. Though some rounds of shortwave energy may pester the region for much of the week, any precipitation development should be largely suppressed given the pattern.

We are mainly looking at a dry forecast into the end of the week with very warm temperatures for each day. High temperatures at least in the 90s should be anticipated at this point for Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. It is still a little too early to discuss details regarding any potential for heat headlines, but the potential will only grow with time as the week progresses. Tuesday looks to be first good chance for some headlines.

AVIATION /18Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG, KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas.

This afternoon...VFR. North to northwest winds 10-15 knots.

Tonight...VFR. N to NNE winds 5 knots or less.

Sunday...VFR. East to Southeast winds around 10 knots.

Outlook...

Sunday night through Thursday...No significant weather.

MARINE
No headlines expected. N winds 10-15 kts this afternoon, becoming light and variable overnight. East to southeast winds 10 to 15 knots Sunday. Seas 2-4 feet.

Outlook...

Sunday night through Thursday...no marine headlines expected. A couple things we will watch: a few gusts around 20 kts are possible on Monday for all zones, and seas may get close to 5 feet on Monday north of Manasquan NJ on Monday.

Rip Currents...

Saturday, north to northeast winds will increase to 10-15 mph with gusts around 20 mph. With 3-4 foot waves offshore and an 8 second period, this will lead to 2-3 foot waves in the surf zone. As a result, there is a MODERATE risk for the development of dangerous rip currents for New Jersey and Delaware Beaches

With lighter winds and smaller waves on Sunday, there will be a LOW risk for the development of dangerous rip currents everywhere.
