...SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS, SOME WITH GUSTY WINDS ARE
LIKELY TONIGHT...
...GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS TO 40 MPH EXPECTED ON THURSDAY...
 
A STRONG COLD PUSHING THROUGH THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES HAS TRIGGERED 
NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS. THIS FRONT IS EXPECTED 
TO MOVE THROUGH OUR REGION AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT.

AS THIS FRONT NEARS...SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL BLOSSOM
AND OCCUR MAINLY DURING THE EVENING. THE GREATEST CONCENTRATION
WILL BE ACROSS NORTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA AND NORTHERN NEW JERSEY.
PRECIPITATION WILL LINGER THE LONGEST...UNTIL WELL AFTER
MIDNIGHT...ACROSS SOUTHEAST NEW JERSEY AND DELMARVA.

WHILE THE GREATEST THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER IS EXPECTED TO BE 
NORTHWEST OF OUR AREA...SOME OF THE BEEFIER THUNDERSTORMS WILL
BE ACCOMPANIED BY STRONG WIND GUSTS AND SMALL HAIL. THE GUSTY WINDS 
COULD BRING DOWN SOME TREE LIMBS AND UTILITY LINES...ESPECIALLY IN 
PLACES WHERE TREES STILL HAVE SOME OF THEIR LEAVES ON THEM.

IF YOU OBSERVE THREATENING WEATHER, OR IF A WARNING IS ISSUED... 
TAKE SHELTER AT ONCE.

THE INTENSE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM DRIVING THIS COLD FRONT WILL PULL 
DOWN THE COLDEST AIR OF THE FALL SEASON INTO THE MIDDLE ATLANTIC 
STATES. A BLUSTERY NORTHWEST WIND IS EXPECTED ON THURSDAY WITH 
SUSTAINED WINDS AVERAGING 20 TO 25 MPH WITH WITH GUSTS AS HIGH AS 40 
MPH. THE WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN STRONG THROUGHOUT THE DAY AND 
THE PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO THESE WINDS WILL HELP PRUNE WEAKER LIMBS 
AND KNOCK OVER SOME SHALLOW ROOTED TREES...ESPECIALLY THOSE THAT 
STILL HAVE LEAVES. IT WOULD BE ADVISABLE IF POSSIBLE TO NOT PARK 
YOUR VEHICLE UNDERNEATH TREES THIS EVENING OR TOMORROW.

WINDS WILL DIMINISH WITH THE SETTING SUN ON THURSDAY.
