AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
237 PM EST THU MAR 1 2007

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT/...
BEST Q-VECTOR AND ISENTROPIC FORCING LINES UP WITH THE COLD FRONTAL
PASSAGE BETWEEN 06-12Z TONIGHT. MODELS BRING TWO BANDS OF RAIN WITH
ISOLATED THUNDER ACROSS THE CWA TONIGHT AHEAD OF THE SHOWERS AND
STORMS WITH THE COLD FRONT. THIS PATTERN RESEMBLES A BLEND FROM
LOCAL HEAVY RAIN CLIMATOLOGY BETWEEN UPSLOPE PATTERNS AND STRONG
DYNAMICS. UPSLOPE LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL ENHANCE THE QPF THIS EVENING
SETTING UP MOIST ANTECEDENT SOIL CONDITIONS. THEN WITH A QUICK
PERIOD OF HEAVY RAIN WITH THE CONVECTION ALONG THE FRONT RAINFALL
RATES MAY BE ENOUGH FOR SMALL STREAM FLOODING. COLD GROUND
TEMPERATURES...SNOW MELT AND LITTLE VEGETATION WILL LEAD TO A LARGE
AMOUNT OF RAIN FROM THIS EVENT RUNNING OFF INTO THE RIVERS. OHRFC
ALREADY HAS SIGNIFICANT WITHIN RISES ON THE GREENBRIER RIVER ON
FRIDAY.

850 MB LOW LEVEL JET IS 65 KTS THROUGH THE TENNESSEE VALLEY AT 18Z
AND THE JET IS FORECAST TO MOVE EAST AHEAD OF THE LOW...REACHING THE
CWA BY 00Z TONIGHT AND PEAKING AT 75 KNOTS OUT OF THE SOUTH AT
06-09Z. THIS WILL MEAN ABUNDANT SHEAR IN THE AREA AND WILL MEAN ANY
WINDS BROUGHT DOWN TO THE SURFACE BY THUNDERSTORMS MAY BE SEVERE.
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE IS INCREASING RAPIDLY FROM THE SOUTH. SURFACE DEW
POINTS ARE IN THE 40S OVER MUCH OF THE CWA AND WILL CONTINUE TO RISE
OVERNIGHT. THE 75 KT WINDS WILL BE ADVECTING 1.0 TO 1.5 INCH PWINS
INTO THE AREA...YET ANOTHER FACTOR THAT SUPPORTS HEAVY RAIN. PWIN
FROM PROFILER AT BCB IS SHOOTING UP AND HAS ALREADY DOUBLED UP TO .8
INCHES SINCE 12Z THIS MORNING. THE CAPE IS NOT PARTICULARLY HIGH BUT
ENOUGH MOMENTUM TRANSFER TO SUPPORT THE THREAT OF DAMAGING WINDS.

TEMPERATURES EAST OF THE MOUNTAINS WILL ALSO BE STEADY OR SLOWLY
RISING OVERNIGHT. GRIDS WILL REFLECT NON DIURNAL TRENDS. WILL BE
ISSUING A FLOOD WATCH FOR THE ENTIRE CWA DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF LIFT
AND MOISTURE EXPECTED THROUGH 12Z.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
FROPA WILL BRING END TO PRECIP EARLY FRIDAY MORNING. COLD AIR LAGS
BEHIND THE COLD FRONT...WITH RETURN OF SUNSHINE ON FRIDAY
TEMPERATURES SHOULD REBOUND NICELY ESPECIALLY IN SOUTHSIDE. PLAYED
TEMPERATURES CLOSE TO MAV GUID. COLDER AIR WILL FILTER INTO THE AREA
OVER THE WEEKEND...AS UPPER TROUGH SETTLES OVER THE EAST. LOWERED
TEMPERATURES ON SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT. 85H TEMPS BY SUNDAY ARE
FCST NEAR M10 DEG C. UPPER FLOW FLATTENS AGAIN FOR EARLY NEXT
WEEK...TEMPS MODERATING. MODELS HAVE DIFFERENT OPINIONS ON NEXT
SHORTWAVE WHICH SWINGS THRU THE GREAT LAKE MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY.
LEANED TOWRADS THE DRIER SOLUTION. FLOW BECOME SOUTHERLY AND WARM
AIR SHOULD PUSH BACK INTO THE REGION BY WEDNESDAY. FOLLOWED HPCGUIDE
WHICH WAS A ECMWF/CANADIAN AND GFS BLEND.

.AVIATION /20Z-18Z/...
MVFR CEILINGS HAVE SPREAD NORTH ALONG THE EAST SLOPES OF THE BLUE
RIDGE THIS MORNING. THERE WILL BE LITTLE CHANGE AT ROA...LYH AND DAN
UNTIL THE RAIN ARRIVES LATER THIS AFTERNOON. ONCE THE RAIN ARRIVES
THE STRONGER WINDS JUST ABOVE THE SURFACE WILL MIX DOWN RESULTING IN
GUSTS OF 25 TO 35 KTS. A LARGE AREA OF LIGHT TO MODERATE RAIN WILL
CONTINUE TO MOVE NORTHEAST OUT OF THE TENNESSEE VALLEY THIS
AFTERNOON. THIS WILL RESULT IN MVFR CONDITIONS AT BLF AND LWB. RAIN
WILL BE WIDESPREAD TONIGHT ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA WITH
THUNDERSTORMS ALSO LIKELY ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT THAT
PASSES THROUGH THE AREA BETWEEN 06-12Z. CEILINGS WILL IMPROVE
RAPIDLY BEHIND THE FRONT...HOWEVER...WINDS WILL STILL BE GUSTY.
