AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WAKEFIELD VA
400 PM EDT SAT JUL 5 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
A FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL REMAIN NEARLY STATIONARY ACROSS THE MID
ATLANTIC REGION...KEEPING UNSETTLED WEATHER ACROSS THE AREA
THROUGH MONDAY. THE FRONT FINALLY PUSHES OFF THE COAST MONDAY
NIGHT...AS WEAK HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FOR TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY MORNING/...
UNSTABLE AIRMASS FIRMLY ENTRENCHED ACRS THE MID ATLC AND CAROLINAS
THIS AFTN. MAIN FRONTAL BOUNDARY RESIDES ACRS NRN VA...BUT THERE
IS A DISTINCT SFC TROUGH/CONV BNDRY FROM GA/SC NORTHWARD INTO THE
VA PIEDMONT. IN THE MID/UPR LVLS...WV SATL SHOWS UPR LOW
POSITIONED ACRS THE OHIO VALLEY. CONDITIONS ARE RATHER HUMID WITH
PRC WTR VALUES AROUND 2 INCHES.

FOR TONIGHT...GOOD CONSENSUS AMONG NAM/GFS THAT THE UPPER LOW WILL
AMPLIFY A BIT...BRINGING STRONG UPPER DIFFLUENT ZONE INTO THE MID
ATLC AFTER MIDNIGHT. LOW LVL INSTABILITY WILL BE WEAKER AT THAT
TIME...BUT WITH DEW PTS ARND 70...EXPECT THERE WILL STILL BE
SUFFICIENT LIFT FOR AT LEAST SCTD TSTM ACTIVITY EVEN AFTER
MIDNGT...WITH POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY DOWNPOURS/LOCALIZED FLOODING CONTINUING.
HAVE LIKELY POPS ALL ZONES OVERNIGHT (EXCEPT IN NC DROPPED POPS TO
50% AFTER MIDNGT). SEVERE THREAT CERTAINLY POSSIBLE WITH STRG
LIFT...BUT OVERALL SHOULD BE ISOLATED AS FRZ LEVELS ARE RATHER
HIGH AND BULK 0-6 KM SHEAR IS ABOUT 20 KTS OR LESS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY/...
UNSETTLED PATTERN WILL CONTINUE SUNDAY...WITH MORE CLOUDS THAN SUN
EXPECTED AND CONTINUED WITH HIGH CHC (40-50%) POPS IN
MORNING...AND LIKELY (60%) DURING AFTN. HIGH TEMPS AGAIN HELD IN
CHECK (MAINLY IN MID 80S) DUE TO THE CLOUDS AND MSTR. UPPER TROUGH
SLOWLY TRACKS FARTHER EAST BY MONDAY...AND HAVE FOCUSED HIGHEST
PRECIP CHANCES MONDAY ACRS NE NC/FAR SE VA...WITH SOMEWHAT LOWER
CHANCES ELSEWHERE (BUT STILL ABOVE CLIMO AT AROOUND 40%)

BY MON NGT/TUESDAY...SHOULD SEE A RETURN TO A MORE TYPICAL SUMMER
DIURNAL PATTERN WITH PTLY CLDY SKIES AND ONLY 20-30% CHANCES FOR
PRECIP PRIMARILY DURING AFTN/EVENG HRS. TEMPS ALSO RISE BACK INTO
THE 90S WITH MORE SUN EXPECTED.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
BERMUDA HIGH PRES BUILDS IN BY TUE NIGHT. KEPT 20% CHANCE OF
SHRAS/TSTMS THRU THEN WITH THE HIGHEST CHANCE OVER SE VA/NE NC WHERE
LINGERING MOISTURE AND FORCING MECHANISMS FROM THE FRONTAL REMNANTS
WILL STILL BE IN PLACE. LOWS WILL BE IN THE UPR 60S IN WRN SECTIONS
TO LWR 70S IN THE EAST/COASTAL LOCATIONS.

WED AM STARTS OUT DRY. AN UPPER LEVEL TROF AND ASSOCIATED SFC
FRONT LOCATED NEAR THE GREAT LAKES BEGINS TO MOVE CLOSER DURING THE
DAY...WHILE THE S/SW FLOW AROUND THE HIGH OFFSHORE INCREASES.
ABUNDANT MOISTURE WILL GET PUMPED UP AROUND THE HIGH AND AHEAD OF
THE FRONT...SO HAVE 20% CHANCE OF SHRAS/TSTMS DURING PEAK HEATING
HOURS. THE FRONT THEN SAGS TO THE SOUTH WED NIGHT THRU THUR NIGHT.
CHANCE OF SHRAS/TSTMS CONTINUES THRU THIS PERIOD AS THE BOUNDARY
SLOWLY ATTEMPTS TO MOVE FARTHER THRU OUR AREA. HIGH TEMPS WILL BE IN
THE UPR 80S/LWR 90S WED AND THUR...AND LOW TEMPS WILL RANGE FROM THE
UPR 60S/LWR 70S.

THE FRONT WILL STALL AND EVENTUALLY WASH OUT ACRS OUR SRN COUNTIES
ON FRI. WILL STILL HAVE A CHANCE OF PRECIP ON FRI THRU FRI NIGHT IN
THE SOUTH CLOSEST TO WHAT WILL BE LEFT OF THE BOUNDARY...WITH A
SLIGHT CHANCE FARTHER NORTH AND WEST. HIGH TEMPS WILL BE COOLER ON
FRI WITH 850 TEMPS FALLING TO 13 TO 15C AND WITH ADDITIONAL CLOUD
COVER. MIN TEMPS WILL ALSO DROP SLIGHTLY ON FRI NIGHT/SAT
AM...GENERALLY 65 TO 70 EXCEPT LWR 70S RIGHT AT THE SRN BEACHES.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
ISOLD-SCT CONVECTION STILL ON TAP FOR TODAY AS SAME HUMID AIRMASS IN
PLACE. FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO LIE MOSTLY TO THE NORTH OF OUR REGION.
MOSTLY VFR FOR THE TERMINALS EXCEPT IN SHOWER/TSTM ACTIVITY WHICH
MIGHT LAST INTO LATE EVENING. AREAS OF FOG WILL AFFECT TERMINALS
OVERNIGHT INTO THE MORNING WITH MVFR/IFR CONDS...ALONG WITH SMOKE IN
THE SE.

LONGATED WARM CONVEYOR BELT WITH A SUBTROPICAL CONNECTION FROM THE
WRN GULF WILL MAINTAIN A FAIRLY MOIST COLUMN OVER THE REGION TDA AND
THROUGH MONDAY. BY EARLY NEXT WEEK...A MID LVL SHORTWAVE AND
SUBSEQUENT WESTERLY FLOW FINALLY PUSHES THE SFC FRONT OFF SHORE.

&&

.MARINE...
MAIN CONCERN THIS EVENING WILL BE TSTMS THAT WILL CONTINUE TO AFFECT
MAINLY THE SRN WATERS. COULD HAVE WIND GUSTS UP TO 33 KNOTS WITH
LIGHTNING STRIKES AND SMALL HAIL POSSIBLE IN THE HEAVIEST STORMS.
MEANWHILE...SMOKE FROM THE WILDFIRE NEAR SUFFOLK VA WILL CONTINUE TO
AFFECT THE WATERS AROUND THE TIDEWATER REGION (SRN CHES BAY AND THE
SRN ATLANTIC WATERS)...WITH SMOKE FROM THE FIRE IN HYDE CNTY NC
MOVING ACROSS CURRITUCK SND. VSBYS MAY BE REDUCED LOCALLY DOWN TO 1
TO 3 MILES WHERE SMOKE IS THE THICKEST SO USE CAUTION IF BOATING.

WIND PATTERN REMAINS DIURNALLY DRIVEN WITH ONSHORE WINDS THRU THIS
EVENING DUE TO SEABREEZE DEVELOPMENT. WINDS WILL EVENTUALLY DIMINISH
AND BECOME S AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. THE PRES GRADIENT TIGHTENS BY
SUN AFTN AS A FRONT MOVES CLOSER TO THE WATERS FROM THE NW. MAY HAVE
A FEW GUSTS TO SCA (20 KT) ACRS THE CHES BAY AND A FEW GUSTS TO 25
KT ACRS THE ATLANTIC WATERS LATE ON SUN...BUT DO NOT THINK THAT THE
COVERAGE AND DURATION OF SUCH WINDS WOULD BE GREAT ENUF TO RAISE SCA
FLAGS AT THIS TIME. WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR FOR ANY CHANGES.

THE FRONT WILL STALL AND WASH OUT OVER THE SRN WATERS DURING THE
EARLY PART OF THE WEEK...WHILE BERMUDA HIGH PRES BUILDS BACK IN.
ANOTHER FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE NW AND THEN STALLS OUT ACRS SRN
ZONES LATE WED THRU THUR.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
LGT SOUTHERLY FLOW TO CONTINUE TONIGHT AND SUNDAY SO SMOKE WILL
CONTINUE TO AFFECT MUCH OF METRO NORFOLK/PORTSMOUTH AND OUTLYING
AREAS. HIGH RELATIVE HUMIDITY OVERNGT/ERLY SUNDAY MRNG WILL HAVE
POTENTIAL FOR SMOKE/SUPERFOG SCENARIO. WINDS SHOULD ALLOW FOR SOME
IMPROVEMNT AGAIN BY MIDDAY SUNDAY.

&&

.AKQ WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
MD...NONE.
NC...NONE.
VA...NONE.
MARINE...NONE.
