Area forecast discussion, Jul 10, 3:05 PM EDT, 2 hours 52 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
305 PM EDT TUE JUL 10 2007

.SYNOPSIS...
COLD FRONT OVER THE GREAT LAKES SOUTH INTO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS
WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE AREA WEDNESDAY...AND EAST TO THE
COAST BY THURSDAY MORNING. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN
THURSDAY...FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER FRONT ARRIVING TOWARD THE END OF
THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
LEE TROUGH AND GOOD HEATING ALONG WITH WEAK OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES
FROM SHOWERS THIS MORNING HAS LED TO CONVECTION DEVELOPING
ALONG/EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE. WIND FLOW IS WEAK...SO STORMS ARE
SLOW MOVING AND BRINGING HEAVY RAINS. THIS ACTIVITY WILL REMAIN
SCATTERED THROUGH THE EVENING. SHORTWAVE ACROSS THE TN VLY WILL
BRING NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND STORMS TO OUR WESTERN FORECAST AREA
EARLY THIS EVENING AS WELL. ONCE THIS WAVE PASSES AND WE LOSE
HEATING...STORMS SHOULD DIMINISH OVERNIGHT...BUT REMAIN ISOLATED
TO SCATTERED IN THE WEST AS THE MAIN SHORTWAVWE OVER MO/AR
ARRIVES. CLOUDINESS AND HIGH DEWPOINTS WILL KEEP LOWS TONIGHT
SIMILAR TO LAST NIGHT AND WENT CLOSE TO MAV OR SLIGHTLY HIGHER.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
COLD FRONT AND DECENT SHORTWAVE ARRIVES WEDNESDAY...AND DYNAMICS
SUSTAIN A WIDESPREAD AREA OF SHOWERS/STORMS INTO THE
WEST...PASSING EAST INTO THE PIEDMONT BY AFTERNOON. BOTH 12Z
NAM/GFS AGREES ON THIS AND ON THE MOVEMENT. HAVE GONE CATEGORICAL
POPS IN THE WEST WEDNESDAY...LIKELY EAST. MODELS ARE MORE
PROGRESSIVE AND THIS IS THE SOLUTION I CHOSE...WHICH SHOULD SEE A
DIMINISHING TREND FROM WEST-EAST LATE WED AFTERNOON THROUGH WED
NIGHT. THE RAIN IS MUCH NEEDED...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE SRN 2/3 OF
THE FORECAST AREA.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
THURSDAY LOOKS DRIER AS SHORTWAVE RIDGE MOVES IN. FRONT WILL STALL
OUT TO THE SOUTHEAST OF US...FAR ENOUGH WAY TO KEEP PRECIP OUT. 5H
TROUGH DEEPENS THU-FRI WITH ANOTHER FRONT/SHORTWAVE ARRIVING. PRECIP
WITH THIS IS MARGINAL...BUT STILL LOOKS LIKE THE NWRN 1/3 OF THE CWA
WILL SEE A GOOD CHANCE OF SHOWERS.

THE 00Z GFS IS AN OUTLIER AMONG THE OTHER MODELS...IN RESPECT TO
STRENGTH OF SHORTWAVE SWINGING ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY AND LOW
PRESSURE TRACKING ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES REGION DURING THE
WEEKEND. FRONTAL BOUNDARY SHOULD BE JUST SOUTH/EAST OF THE
FORECAST AREA SAT MORNING...THEN DISSIPATES. ANOTHER FRONT ARRIVES
BY SUNDAY FROM THE NORTHWEST...AND MODELS...ESPECIALLY THE 00Z
ECMWF WERE PRESSING IT FURTHER SOUTH WITH HIGH AMPLITUDE TROUGH
OVER THE EAST. HOWEVER...THE 06Z GFS/00Z UKMET AND 12Z/09 ECMWF
ENSEMBLE ARE NOT AS AGRESSIVE. THIS WILL KEEP THE FRONT STALLED A
LITTLE NORTH OF US. THIS IS CLIMATOLOGICALLY FAVORED FOR THIS TIME
OF YEAR...BUT FRONTS SO FAR THIS SUMMER HAVE NOT BEEN STALLING AS
FAR NORTH AS NORMAL. FOR SENSIBILE WX...TEMPS SHOULD BE ABOUT WHAT
YOU WOULD EXPECT IN MID JULY...WITH CHANCE OF SHOWERS/STORMS
THROUGH THE PERIOD...MAXED IN THE AFTERNOON/EVENING.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WITH MVFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILTIES WILL
CONTINUE TO DEVELOP THROUGH 21Z. THE STORMS WILL BE MOVING TO THE
NORTHEAST AT 5 TO 10 MPH. THE STORMS WILL DISSIPATES THIS EVENING.

A SHORT WAVE COMING OUT OF THE CENTRAL PLAINS WILL BRING A
WIDESPREAD AREA OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO THE REGION ON
WEDNESDAY. THE RAIN IS EXPECTED TO REACH BLF AND LWB AROUND 12Z
WITH MVFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES. CONVECTION AND SEVERE
POTENTIAL INCREASES WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND NIGHT AS A PRE-
FRONTAL BAND MOVES TO THE EAST COAST.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY...A COLD FRONT WILL COME THROUGH THE
OHIO VALLEY AND CROSS THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA. BEHIND THE
FRONT EXPECT COOLER AND DRIER WEATHER WITH VFR CONDITIONS THURSDAY
NIGHT AND FRIDAY.
