GREAT LAKES CONTINUES TO TRACK EAST THRU TONIGHT TOWARD NRN NEW
ENGLND. SYS WILL DROP A WEAK INITIAL CD FRNT ACROSS THE REGION
TONIGHT. FRONT LOOKS VERY DRY...THOUGH AN INCREASE IN LLVL MSTR IS
NOTED OVR THE MD ERN SHORE AROUND MIDNIGHT ACCORDING TO THE NAM/GFS.
NOT ENUF TO WARRANT PRECIP MENTION RIGHT NOW. LOW TEMPS TONIGHT IN
THE 30S MOST LOCATIONS.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY/...
TIMING OF SECOND, STRONGER COLD FRONT ON SUNDAY COMING IN SLOWER AND
MORE INLINE WITH GFSS TIMING. FOR THIS REASON...HAVE BUMPED UP
TEMPS ACROSS ENTIRE FA A FEW DEGS. 2ND COLD FRNT ALSO DRY...BUT WITH
MUCH COLDER AND DRIER AIR TO FOLLOW...ALONG WITH SOME STRONG STRONG
LLVL WINDS. WINDS WILL BE STRONG ENUF TO WARRANT A WIND ADVSY FOR
THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA...FOR MORE INFO SEE WBCNPWAKQ WHICH WILL
BE OUT SHORTLY.
ALONG WITH CAA BEHIND THE FRONT SUN NIGHT...SKIES CLEAR OUT PAVING
THE WAY FOR SOME GOOD RADIATIONAL COOLING. ADJUSTED LOW TEMPS DOWN 1
TO 2 DEGS BLW MATCH GUIDANCE TO RANGE FROM THE TEENS TO LWRS 20S.
COLD AIR REMAINS IN CONTROL FOR MONDAY AS WELL. HIGH TEMPS MONDAY
BLW CLIMO NORMAL RANGING FROM LWR 30S TO AROUND 40. GUIDANCE FOR ERN
SHORE CONSISTENLY KEEPING HIGHS AROUND THE FREEZING MARK. MONDAY
NIGHT NOT QUITE AS COLD AS SUN...BUT STILL XPCTED LOWS 18 TO 25.
TEMPS REBOUND TO ABV CLIMO ON TUE AS FLOW TURNS SOUTHERLY AND HIGH
PRES SHIFTS OFFSHORE. GFS/ECMWF COMING MORE INLINE FOR MID WEEK
SYSTEM. INCLUDED SLIGHT CHC POPS BACK OVR PIEDMONT TUE AFTN FOR
SHWRS AS ISENTROPIC LIFT AHEAD OF SYS.
&&
.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY DURING THIS PERIOD...PARTICULARLY MIDWEEK. IT
DOES APPEAR THE 12Z ECMWF HAS COME MORE IN LINE WITH THE 06/12Z GFS
TRENDS...HOWEVER...DIFFERENCES REMAIN WITH RESPECT TO THE EVOLUTION
OF THE COASTAL LOW (BOTH TIMING AND TRACK).
SOME GUIDANCE SUGGESTING LOW PRESSURE TO DVLP OVER THE SE AND TRACK
OVER THE REGION TUE NIGHT THRU WED. ANTICIPATING A SLOWER SOLN AS
PAST EVENTS HAVE SHOWN IN RECENT MONTHS. IF A SLOWER SOLN IS
REALIZED...GFS/ECMWF MAY BE TOO FAR E WITH SYSTEM AND A JOG TO THE
WNW IS ANTICIPATED. THIS COULD MAKE FOR ANOTHER DRY SLOT TO DVLP
OVER THE CWA. THIS WOULD MAKE FOR PRECIP SHIELD TO STAY IN TWO
PARTS... 1ST TO THE NW OF THE CWA AND 2ND SE OF THE CWA. HAVE KEPT
LOW CHCS OF POP DUE TO THIS THEORY THAN RELYING ON GUIDANCE THAT HAS
FALTERED AT THE DAY 4-5 PERIOD. LEFT REST OF EXTENDED AS IS.
&&
.AVIATION /20Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
VFR UNDER CLEAR SKIES TODAY AND TOMORROW. HOWEVER... STRONG
SOUTHERLY WINDS HAVE DEVELOPED ACROSS THE AREA AHEAD OF A COLD
FRONT WHICH WILL CROSS THE AREA TONIGHT. WIND IS 15 TO 20 KT AT
MOST SITES AND WILL SHIFT TO THE SW THIS EVENING (RIC IS ALREADY
WSW) BEFORE TURNING WESTERLY AFTER THE FROPA AROUND 03Z. VERY
WINDY CONDITIONS ANTICIPATED ON SUN WITH SUST WINDS OF 20-25 KTS
AND GUSTS TO NEAR 40 KTS POSSIBLE (ESP NEAR THE COAST).
HI PRES BUILDS SUN TO TUES BEFORE NEXT FROPA/LO PRES SYSTEM
PASSAGE ON WED MORNING...BRINGING RAIN TO THE AREA.
&&
.MARINE...
HAVE RAISED SCA FLAGS FOR LATE AM-AFTN HRS OVER THE BAY AS
WINDS LOOK TO BE STRONG ENOUGH (ALTHOUGH MARGINAL) FOR HEADLINES TO
BE POSTED.
FOR THE BAY...HAVE A LULL IN WINDS (UNDER SCA) THIS EVE-INTO
TNT WITH NO HEADLINES POSTED FOR THE TIME BEING. HEADLINES MAY BE
RAISED LATER TODAY/TNT AFTER INITIAL FIRST HEADLINE FOR TODAY HAS
ENDED. SECOND HEADLINE WILL BE UTILIZED FOR THE ANTICIPATION OF GALE
FORCE WINDS (MAINLY GUSTS) ON SUN. ANTICIPATE SUST WINDS OF 20-25
KTS WITH POSSIBLE GUSTS TO/NEAR 40 KTS.
FOR THE COASTAL WATERS...HAVE SCA STARTING AT 03Z SUN WITH INITIAL
SURGE OF WINDS AND INCREASING SEAS. HAVE ALSO SECOND HEADLINE FOR
GALES ON SUN WITH GUSTS NEAR 40-45KTS POSSIBLE (ESP NRN WATERS).
CRTK SND...HAVE KEPT WINDS AT SCA CRITERIA 03Z SUN THROUGH MON AM.
COULD SEE GUSTS TO NEAR GALE...BUT ATTM CONFIDENCE NOT ENOUGH TO
SWAY AN ADDITIONAL HEADLINE.
WINDS DIE DOWN ON MON AS HIGH PRESSURE MOVES INTO THE REGION.
POSSIBLE FLAGS ONCE AGAIN MAY BE NEEDED TUE NIGHT INTO WED IF LOW
PRESSURE DOES DVLP AND TRACK OVER THE REGION AS SOME MODELS
SUGGEST.
&&
.FIRE WEATHER...
A STRONG...BUT DRY COLD FRONT WILL PUSH THROUGH THE REGION SUNDAY
MORNING. VERY DRY AIR BEHIND THE FRONT WILL ALLOW RELATIVE
HUMIDITIES TO DROP TO LESS THAN 30% BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON. THIS
COUPLED WITH SUSTAINED W WINDS OF 20-30 KTS AND HIGHER GUSTS HAS
LEAD THE ISSUANCE OF A RED FLAG WARNING FOR ALL NC/VA ZONES. WIND
CRITERIA WILL EASILY BE MET ALL ZONES...LEFT MD OUT FOR NOW AS RH
AND FUEL WILL BE MARGINAL THERE AND TEMPS LIKELY ONLY IN MID 40S
DURING AFTN. AREAS NORTH OF RICHMOND MAY ALSO BE SOMEWHAT MARGINAL
AS WELL DUE TO TEMPS FALLING A FEW DGRS IN AFTN. OVERALL
CONFIDENCE IS PRETTY GOOD ACRS SRN VA/NC WHERE TEMPS SHOULD REMAIN
WELL IN THE 50S AS DEW PTS PLUMMET DURING THE AFTN.
