AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
300 PM EDT MON AUG 1 2005

.LONG TERM (TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT)...

HIGH PRESSURE...ALOFT AND AT THE SURFACE...WILL DOMINATE THROUGH THE
MIDDLE OF THE WEEK.  GENERALLY EXPECT LITTLE IN WAY OF
PRECIPITATION...DESPITE MODERATE INSTABILITY OFF MODEL SOUNDINGS.
AS THE UPPER RIDGE BUILDS EAST...A CAPPING INVERSION SETS UP AND
SHOULD PRECLUDE ANY CONVECTION UNTIL THE COLD FRONT ARRIVES EARLY
FRIDAY.  THINK THERE WILL BE A DIURNALLY INDUCED CU FIELD BUT STILL
SHOULD MANAGE MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES DURING THE DAY AND MOSTLY CLEAR AT
NIGHT.

GENERALLY WENT SLIGHTLY ABOVE MOS FOR HIGHS AND LOWS...LEANING
CLOSER TO THE WARMER MET NUMBERS.

.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
(ISSUED 210 PM EDT MON AUG 1 2005)

SHORT TERM (TONIGHT AND TUESDAY)...

WEAK SHORT WAVE DRIFTS SOUTHEASTWARD THROUGH THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF
THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON..OTHERWISE STRONG UPPER LEVEL HIGH TO THE
WEST WILL BE RIDGING EASTWARD AND DOMINATING OUR WEATHER THROUGH
TUESDAY. THIS SHORT WAVE WILL DELAY THE ONSET OF THE MID LEVEL CAP
FOR THIS AFTERNOON. THUS...WITH THE COMBINATION OF A BIT MORE
MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY IN THE MOUNTAINS ALONG WITH SOME OROGRAPHIC
LIFT...ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY
EVENING. SLOW MOVEMENT OF THE STORMS MAY AGAIN POSE ISOLATED WATER
PROBLEMS...ESPECIALLY OVER THE SOUTHERN MOUNTAINS.

WITH LOSS OF HEATING LATER THIS EVENING...A TRANQUIL NIGHT WITH
PATCHY RIVER AND VALLEY FOG CAN BE EXPECTED. TUESDAY WILL SEE PLENTY
OF SUNSHINE ALL PLACES AND LESS CHANCE OF AFTERNOON MOUNTAIN
CONVECTION WITH THE CAP SETTING IN. HAVE GONE ABOVE THE MAV TEMP
GUIDANCE TONIGHT AND TUESDAY...MORE IN LINE WITH THE FWC. THIS IS
SUPPORTED BY LAST NIGHTS MINS AND ONE MORE DAY OF SUNSHINE ACTING ON
THE STAGNANT AIRMASS IN PLACE.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
(ISSUED 128 PM EDT MON AUG 1 2005)

AVIATION...

OTHER THAN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN
MOUNTAINS THIS AFTERNOON...AND LOCALLY IFR IN FOG 08Z-12Z MAINLY AT
CRW...BKW AND EKN...HIGH PRESSURE AND VFR WILL BE THE RULE THROUGH
TUESDAY.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
(ISSUED 1210 PM EDT MON AUG 1 2005)

LONG TERM (FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY)...

MODELS IN FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH BRINGING A COLD FRONT INTO THE
REGION ON FRIDAY...ALTHOUGH WEAKENING AS IT APPROACHES.  THE MAIN
DYNAMICAL SUPPORT LIFTS WELL NORTH THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES INTO
SOUTHEAST CANADA.  LOOKS TO BE A SITUATION WHERE THE FRONT WILL
CONTINUE PUSHING EASTWARD ACROSS THE NORTHEASTERN STATES AND STALL
OUT SOMEWHERE OVER OUR AREA FOR THE WEEKEND.  THIS WILL LEAD TO
CONTINUED POPS THROUGH THE WEEKEND IN VICINITY OF THIS BOUNDARY.
SOUTHEAST OHIO MAY BE ABLE TO STAY DRY AFTER SATURDAY AS HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE NORTH.

TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN NEAR NORMAL...ALTHOUGH THINK WE COULD WARM
UP A BIT BEFORE THE FRONT PASSES ON FRIDAY.
