AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
221 PM EDT THU JUN 14 2007

.SYNOPSIS...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AGAIN TODAY...WITH A LESSER CHANCE
FRIDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
SEEING CONVECTION BEGINNING DUE TO DAYTIME HEATING OVER THE EASTERN
MOUNTAINOUS REGIONS. EXPECT THIS TO CONTINUE WITH THE DECENT
INSOLATION DESPITE THE LOWER CLOUD DECK HANGING OFF TO THE EAST OF
THE MOUNTAINS. STOUT VORT MAX IS ROTATING AROUND AN UPPER LEVEL LOW
THAT HAS BEEN SITTING OFF THE EAST COAST FOR THE LAST FEW DAYS. THIS
FEATURE IS MOVING WITH A PURPOSE...AND IS ALREADY ENTERING THE
NORTHERN ZONES WITH THE BEST LIFT. CONUNDRUM HERE IS THE LACK OF
DEEP MOISTURE AND THE FACT THAT A LITTLE MORE DAYTIME HEATING WOULD
BE PRIME FOR THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT. DEEPER MOISTURE IS RELEGATED
TO THE FOOTHILLS OF THE MOUNTAINS AND THE COAL FIELDS...GETTING
PROGRESSIVELY DRIER THROUGH THE ATMOSPHERIC COLUMN NORTHWESTWARD
TOWARDS THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY. NEVERTHELESS...HAVE PUT ISOLATED POPS
IN FOR THE CWA UNTIL THE EVENING...WITH LIKELIES IN THE
AFOREMENTIONED AREAS OF DEEPER MOISTURE. TIMING COULD BE AN ISSUE
HERE IF THE VORT MAX MOVES THROUGH TOO QUICKLY RELATIVE TO THE
DAYTIME HEATING. EXPECTING ANY ACTIVITY TO SUBSIDE IN A MANNER
SIMILAR TO LAST NIGHT...WHEN MOST OF THE STORMS COLLAPSED WITH THE
SETTING OF THE SUN.

A QUIETER DAY IN STORE FOR FRIDAY WITH A BIT MORE DRYING THROUGH THE
COLUMN. NOT MUCH TO SPEAK OF IN TERMS OF FORCING FOR ANY
ACTIVITY...HOWEVER STILL WEARY OF MORE ELEVATED HEAT SOURCE
INITIATION. MAY HAVE TO CUT THESE OUT IN FUTURE FORECASTS IF IT
LOOKS LIKE THERE IS NOT ENOUGH FUEL AVAILABLE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT/...
QUESTION IS WHETHER THE WEATHER WILL ACTUALLY SETTLE DOWN FRIDAY.
MODELS STILL SHOW UPPER TROUGHINESS ON BACK SIDE OF UPPER LOW ALONG
THE EASTERN SEABOARD...SO COOL AIR ALOFT AND DAYTIME HEATING WILL
AGAIN PROVIDE THE INSTABILITY WHILE G.E. 20KTS FLOW AND DCVA TO
PROVIDE SOME SHEAR AND POCKETS OF UPPER DIVERGENCE.  MAINTAINED
EXISTING POPS ACROSS S PORTION OF AREA AND IN THE MOUNTAINS WHILE
RAISING PEAK VALUES.

FORECAST REMAINS DRY FOR SAT ALTHOUGH NAM12 IS SLIGHTLY SLOWER THAN
GFS IN ERADICATING UPPER LOW CIRCULATION FROM THE AREA.  WOULD NOT
BE SURPRISED IF SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS FORM AT LEAST ACROSS FAR S
PORTION OF AREA AND BACK UP THROUGH CENTRAL MOUNTAINS.  IF THEY DO
THEY OUGHT TO BE GONE BY EARLY EVENING THOUGH AS HEIGHTS ON ALL
MODELS ARE ON THE WAY UP BY THEN.

BY SUNDAY...BUILDING HIGH PRESSURE SURFACE AND ALOFT LEADS TO HOT
AND DRY WEATHER.

HIGHS FRIDAY WERE JUST ABOVE THE NUMBERS AND NEAR NORMAL ON THE
ARRIVAL OF SLIGHTLY COOLER AIR IN THE PERSISTENT DEEP LAYER NE
FLOW.  LOWERED LOWS A BIT TOWARD THE NEW NUMBERS FRIDAY NIGHT AND
SATURDAY NIGHT.  LEFT SATURDAY HIGHS ALONE...HIGHER THAN HIGHS
FRIDAY AND AGAIN A BIT ABOVE THE NUMBERS.  THE LOW CLOUDS IN SE
UPSLOPE FLOW FRIDAY SHOULD BE ERADICATED COME SATURDAY...SO WOUND
UP CODING UP A 7F WARM UP AT BKW.  TOOK HIGHS SUNDAY TO THE NEW
NUMBERS WITH HOT WEATHER IN PLACE BY THEN.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
THE GFS BRING A COLD FRONT ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES REGION...FAR AWAY
FROM OUR AREA DURING THE WEEKEND HAVING NOT IMPACT ON THE LOCAL
REGION SAT AND SUN. NO MAJOR CHANGES MADE AS DRY WEATHER WITH PLENTY
OF SUNSHINE AND WARM TEMPERATURES WERE FORECASTED.

A SECOND COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH THE OH VALLEY ON TUESDAY...AND
INTO WV TUESDAY EVENING. THE GFS BRING SOME LIGHT QPF AHEAD OF THE
FRONT TUESDAY AFTERNOON...AND HIGHER AMOUNTS IN THE EVENING ACROSS
THE AREA ALONG THE FRONT.

FROM DAY 4 THRU 7...WENT WITH HPC GUIDANCE WHICH CONTINUES TO HAVE
THE WARMEST DAYS ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY. ..WITH TEMPERATURES GETTING
WELL INTO THE 80S RANGING INTO THE LOWER 90 IN THE WEST. ADJUSTED
CHANCE POPS ON DAY 6 WITH THE COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM OUR WEST.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY HAS BEGUN ACROSS THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS...AND
WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
EXPECT CB AND TSRA ALSO TO FORM IN THE LOWLANDS...MAINLY AFFECTING
CRW. HTS AND PKB ARE IN THE LESSER THREAT AREA FOR THUNDERSTORM
ACTIVITY.

TONIGHT...FOG WILL SET IN FOR LOCATIONS THAT SEE RAINFALL AND
MOISTEN THE SURFACE. EXCEPTION TO THIS MAY BE BKW...WITH WIND DATA
FORECASTED TO HINDER THE DEVELOPMENT OF MIST OR FOG. COULD
SEE LIFR AT EKN IF PRECIPITATION MATERIALIZES THERE...BUT WENT
MODEST IN THE TAF WITH IFR.

AVIATION OUTLOOK THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY...LIFR/IFR FOG IS
POSSIBLE AT EKN EACH NIGHT. OTHERWISE...NO SIG WX EXPECTED.
