AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ
642 AM EDT Fri Aug 8 2025
Weather Synopsis:
High pressure initially centered over portions of the Mid-
Atlantic and New England will shift slowly eastward through the
weekend and into the early part of next week. Tranquil weather
conditions are expected. By mid-week, the high should weaken and
shift farther offshore, allowing for a slightly more unsettled
pattern to take shape.
Near Term:
THROUGH TONIGHT -
Through tonight, our area will continue to be just south of the
center of the surface high resulting in the continuation of the
onshore flow regime. We are expecting another round of low
clouds and some breezy conditions especially for locations along
the coast, with cloud cover more likely over Delmarva.
Many models, and consequently model blends are having trouble
resolving some of the net effects of this persistent, but
shallow, marine layer. Thus, went on the higher side of guidance
for both cloud cover and wind speed/gusts. A few high res
models depict some sprinkles or drizzle for portions of Delmarva
and far SE Jersey, but given the shallow nature of the
moisture, I don`t have much confidence that it will develop. For
now, this looks like more of a low cloud set up. High temps are
expected to range from the upper 70s to mid 80s around the
region.
The surface high will slowly slide further east overnight
resulting in the winds weakening and backing slightly.
Short Term:
SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT -
Ridging aloft over portions of the south central and southeast
US will expand northeastward into portions of the Mid-Atlantic
and New England Saturday into Sunday. At the surface, broad high
pressure will remain in control.
Saturday may still be a bit breezy, especially near the coast,
with continued onshore flow. In addition, this regime will favor
partly to mostly cloudy skies near the coast during the
morning. Skies will likely be partly to mostly clear by
afternoon across the entire area. Highs are expected to be in
the low-mid 80s across most of the area, though it may struggle
to reach 80 along the coast with the onshore flow and cloud
cover, and in the higher elevations of the Poconos. With
dewpoints only in the lower 60s, Saturday looks to be a pleasant
day. With lightening winds and mostly clear skies, temperatures
will quickly clear during the overnight hours, with lows
generally in the mid 50s to near 60.
On Sunday, with the high pressure centered more on our area,
lighter winds and a bit of a warm up are anticipated. Under
plentiful sunshine, highs are expected to generally be in the
low-mid 80s, though the urban corridor could see temperatures in
the upper 80s. Without significant moistening, it should still
be a fairly pleasant day overall. Lows Sunday night should also
be a little bit warmer, in the low-mid 60s for most areas.
Long Term:
MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY -
Significant ridging aloft will remain in place across the area
on Monday, though it looks like it will begin to break down some
Tuesday through Thursday. At the surface, high pressure
originally centered over the area will gradually broaden and
weaken, potentially allowing for a slightly more unsettled
pattern to take shape towards the end of the extended period.
Temperatures will be on a continued warming trend through the
period, with highs ranging from the mid 80s to near 90 on Monday
and Tuesday, and potentially climbing into the mid 90s by
Wednesday and Thursday. Overnight lows will be steadily warming
as well, potentially into the low-mid 70s by Wednesday night.
Moisture will be on the increase also, with dewpoints
potentially exceeding 70 by mid-week.
While the pattern does not look to be favorable for widespread
rain or storms, at least isolated, primarily diurnally driven,
convection could become possible across parts of the area
Wednesday into Thursday.
