Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service State College PA 219 PM EST Mon Feb 6 2023
.SYNOPSIS... A mild weather pattern for early February will continue in central Pennsylvania through the end of the week. Some wintry weather is possible along with a modest cool down during the first part of the weekend. The warmer trend resumes next week with high confidence in above normal temperatures heading into the third week of the month.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... Low clouds continue to blanket CPA this afternoon underneath cold pocket aloft associated with departing 500mb trough. We slowed down the clearing and kept temps elevated this evening based on the expected cloud cover and northerly breeze.
Ridging at the surface and aloft will ensure dry weather and diminishing wind tonight. Clouds should break and eventually clear southeast of the mtns as high pressure migrates over the CWA. Mid and high clouds should increase from west to east after midnight into early Tuesday morning. Low temps will be about 10F colder vs. last night in the 20s with the largest departure from climo +5-10F over the western & northern mtns.
&&
.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/... A northern stream shortwave and sfc low will track across southeastern Canada Tuesday. Light rain is expected along the trailing cold front by Tuesday evening across the western Alleghenies, with progressively lower POPs indicated downwind of the mountains across southeast PA. Model soundings show thermal profiles cooling down and drying aloft behind the front which opens the door for another period of upslope low clouds and patchy snizzle or fzdz late Tuesday night into early Wednesday morning.
Low clouds should linger early Wednesday over the western and northern Alleghenies. High pressure will provide fair wx. Expect clouds to increase from the southwest through the afternoon ahead of negative tilt trough and deepening sfc low tracking through the mid Mississippi Valley. Warm advection precip should spread into CPA late Wednesday night into early Thursday morning. Sfc temps may be marginally cold enough in the northern tier to support a period of freezing rain/ice glaze before quickly transitioning to plain rain by Thursday afternoon as temps recover behind a mild southerly flow. With precip moving into a retreating cold sector, expect a slow temp rise with 12hr maxT likely shifting closer to 00Z Fri. Total rainfall is fcst between 0.25-0.50 over the northern 1/2 of CPA.
&&
.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/... A deeper system is progged to track over the Great Lakes region Wed night into Thursday, putting us in the warm sector with rain showers likely during that timeframe, esp across our western zones. Longer range guidance shows a trough translating towards the east coast by Fri into next weekend, with cooling temps and a low probability for some wintry weather Fri or Sat, but forecast uncertainty remains high in this period.
&&
.AVIATION /19Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/... Cigs will continue to slowly drop through the morning hours, in a cold advection pattern behind a departing cold front. BFD will see IFR cigs for a good part of the day, while JST should see cigs dip close to IFR. Farther to the east, the Ridge and Valley region (AOO, UNV, and perhaps IPT) should see cigs dip to borderline VFR/MVFR, while the Lower Susq Valley remains solidly VFR.
A northwesterly breeze will become a bit gusty, with gusts of 15-20 kts expected by this aftn. Cigs should begin to improve later in the day, with BFD and JST being the last airfields to see notable improvement. Winds will become less gusty as evening approaches, with high pressure building overhead.
Outlook...
Tue...Late-day rain showers and reductions developing, primarily N/W.
Wed...Becoming VFR areawide.
Wed night-Thu...Rain and reductions developing from SW to NE, along with a breezy southeasterly to southerly wind.
Thu night-Fri...Improvement expected, although lingering reductions and scattered rain/snow showers are possible N/W.
&&
.CTP WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... None.
