AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
251 AM EST TUE DEC 30 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN FROM THE SOUTHWEST WILL BRIEFLY CONTROL
THE REGIONAL WEATHER TODAY. THEN A FAST MOVING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
WILL PASS BY TO OUR NORTH TONIGHT AND EARLY WEDNESDAY PULLING A
COLD FRONT THROUGH AND PRODUCING VERY WINDY CONDITIONS AND
MOUNTAIN SNOW SHOWERS. COLDER TEMPERATURES WILL PREVAIL THROUGH
THE END OF THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
WINDS WILL BE SLOWLY SUBSIDING THIS MORNING AS SFC HIGH BUILDS IN
AND PRESSURE GRADIENT RELAXES. HOPEFULLY WE CAN DROP THE ADVISORY BY
4AM BUT WINDS AT GEV AND TNB IN NC STILL GUSTING TO ADVISORY LEVELS
AS I TYPE. MAY HAVE TO KEEP IT UP DOWN THERE.

WINDS WILL LAY DOWN LATER THIS MORNING INTO EARLY AFTERNOON UNDER
SUNNY/MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES...BUT WILL INCREASE AGAIN LATE IN THE AFTN
AND ESP TONIGHT AS ANOTHER FAST MOVING NORTHERN STREAM WAVE HEADS
TOWARD THE OHIO VALLEY. RESULTANT LOW PRESSURE RACING EAST JUST
BELOW THE GREAT LAKES THIS EVENING DEEPENS QUICKLY AS IT MOVES THRU
THE OHIO VALLEY AND TO THE MID-ATLANTIC COAST BY 12Z
WED...INCREASING THE PRESSURE GRADIENT DRAMATICALLY OVER THE REGION.
WEST/SOUTHWEST 850 JET INCREASES TO 50-55 KTS BY 06Z...VEERING TO
THE NW BY 12Z AS THE FRONT MOVES THRU. TYPICAL POST-FRONTAL SNOW
SHOWERS WILL DEVELOP IN THE WESTERN MTNS BY 12Z. WILL RAISE A HIGH
WIND WATCH FOR TONIGHT BY MIDNIGHT...BUT BEST WINDS WILL DEVELOP
TOWARD 12Z WED.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
ONCE THE FRONT PASSES TO THE EAST...NORTHWEST FLOW WITH
TRAJECTORIES FROM THE GREAT LAKES WILL BRING SNOW TO WESTERN
SLOPES. SNOW ACCUMULATIONS WILL BE MINOR WITH 1-3 INCHES ON
WESTERN SLOPES AND HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF SOUTHEASTERN WEST
VIRGINIA. WINDY CONDITIONS WILL ALSO ACCOMPANY THE SNOW SHOWERS
THROUGH THE DAY ON WEDNESDAY WITH POSSIBLE ADVISORIES FOR BLOWING
SNOW ON WESTERN SLOPES OF SE WV AND/OR WIND ADVISORIES/WARNINGS
FOR HIGH WINDS ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS AND FOOTHILLS. THESE SNOW
SHOWERS SHOULD END WEDNESDAY EVENING AS HIGH PRESSURE MOVES OVER
THE OHIO VALLEY AND BLOCKS THE GREAT LAKES MOISTURE. THE WINDS
SHOULD ALSO RELAX OVERNIGHT WEDNESDAY AS THE HIGH TRACKS OVER THE
AREA AFTER MIDNIGHT. THIS HIGH PRESSURE WILL QUICKLY MOVE OFF THE
MID ATLANTIC COAST ON THURSDAY. LATE THURSDAY NIGHT/FRIDAY
MORNING...OVERRUNNING MOISTURE MAY BRING A WINTRY MIX OF
PRECIPITATION TO THE AREA.

WEDNESDAY HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL LIKELY OCCUR DURING THE MORNING
AHEAD OF THE FRONT. THROUGH THE DAY ON WEDNESDAY...850 MB
TEMPERATURES -10C TO -12C WILL MIX TO THE GROUND WITH WINDY
CONDITIONS PREVAILING. TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS WILL DROP
INTO THE UPPER 20S DURING THE DAY. DOWNSLOPE WARMING IN THE EAST MAY
OFFSET COOLING TEMPERATURES UNTIL THE EARLY AFTERNOON BUT QUICKER
THAN THEIR NORMAL DIURNAL MAXIMUM. TEMPERATURES WEDNESDAY EVENING
WILL BE SLOW TO DROP WITH BREEZY/WINDY CONDITIONS CONTINUING.
AFTER MIDNIGHT...HIGH PRESSURE IS CENTER OVER THE AREA AND
GOOD RADIATIONAL COOLING WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO DROP RATHER
QUICKLY...ESPECIALLY AREAS SEEING ACCUMULATING SNOWFALL. DESPITE
ABUNDANT SUNSHINE ON THURSDAY...TEMPERATURES ARE NOT EXPECTED TO
RECOVER TO NORMAL AS COLD HIGH STILL INFLUENCING THE AREA AND
LIMITED DAY LIGHT FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
BROAD UPPER LEVEL VORTEX ENVELOPING CANADA WILL LEAD TO
PROGRESSIVE FLOW OVER THE LOWER 48 THROUGH THE END OF THIS WEEK
AND INTO THE FIRST FULL WEEK OF JANUARY. TRACK OF INDIVIDUAL SHORT
WAVES WILL CONTINUE TO RESULT IN SURFACE STORM TRACKS TO OUR WEST
AND NORTH...ALLOWING FOR A BRIEF WARMUP AHEAD OF EACH
SYSTEM...FOLLOWED BY A SURGE OF COLD AIR BEHIND EACH FRONTAL
PASSAGE. THIS SEESAWING OF TEMPERATURE WILL RESULT IN P-TYPE
CHALLENGES THROUGH THE EXTENDED FORECAST.

FOR FRIDAY...OUR FORECAST AREA WILL BE ON THE BACK SIDE OF SURFACE
HIGH PRESSURE WHICH WILL BE CENTERED OFF THE MID ATLANTIC
COAST. A STRONG STORM WILL BE MOVING EAST OVER THE GREAT
LAKES...A COLD FRONT TRAILING SOUTH THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY AND
INTO THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. WARM AIR ADVECTION AND
INCREASING ISENTROPIC LIFT IS FORECAST AHEAD OF THE SURFACE
FRONT...MOISTURE STREAMING NORTH FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO.

WITH RESIDUAL COLD AIR IN PLACE FROM THE EXITING SURFACE HIGH
FRIDAY MORNING...ANY PRECIP THAT ARRIVES BEFORE NOON MAY FALL AS A
MIXED BAG OF P-TYPES. WARM AIR AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING FRONT WILL
MOVE IN ALOFT RESULTING IN PARTIAL OF FULL MELTING OF
HYDROMETEORS. UNTIL SURFACE TEMPS CLIMB ABOVE FREEZING...SLEET OR
FREEZING RAIN WILL BE A CONCERN. WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE FRONT
FRIDAY AFTERNOON...COLD AIR ADVECTION WILL REVERSE THE PROCESS
WITH TEMPS COOLING FROM TOP DOWN AND CHANGING PRECIP OVER TO SNOW
IN THE MOUNTAINS. THE PRECIP WILL LIKELY COME TO AN END IN THE
EASTERN PART OF THE CWA BEFORE A CHANGE WOULD OCCUR THERE. WITH
STRONG COLD AIR ADVECTION PROGGED FRIDAY NIGHT...SNOW SHOWERS OR
FLURRIES WILL LINGER IN THE MOUNTAINS.

BUBBLE OF COLD HIGH PRESSURE WILL SETTLE OVER THE AREA SATURDAY
WITH A COLD NIGHT SATURDAY NIGHT. THE NEXT SYSTEM TO EFFECT THE
AREA WILL ARRIVE EITHER MONDAY OR TUESDAY. BOTH THE ECMWF AND GFS
INDICATE LARGE AREA OF ISENTROPIC LIFT TO DEVELOP OVER THE
SOUTHERN PLAINS FOR THE FIRST OF NEXT WEEK...BOTH MODELS
DEVELOPING A STORM OVER RED RIVER VALLEY AND TRACKING IT INTO THE
OHIO VALLEY. THERE ARE STILL TIMING ISSUES...THE 12Z GFS FASTER
AND FARTHER EAST WITH THE STORM TRACK...THE ECMWF SLOWER...
DEEPER...AND FARTHER WEST WITH THE STORM TRACK. ATTM HAVE GONE
WITH THE SLOWER SOLUTION AND A MORE WESTWARD TRACK...HOLDING OFF
INTRODUCTION OF ANY PRECIP IN OUR FCST AREA UNTIL TUESDAY.
AGAIN...THERE WILL BE A P-TYPE CHALLENGE. COLD HIGH PRESSURE WILL
RESIDE ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE APPALACHIANS WITH WARM AIR...AND
MOST LIKELY AN ELEVATED ABOVE FREEZING LAYER...ADVECTING INTO THE
AREA AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING STORM SYSTEM.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
VFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES ARE EXPECTED THROUGH TUESDAY...BUT WINDS
WILL BE THE MAIN ISSUE OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS. LOW LEVEL JET ARND
50KTS WAS MIXING DOWN AT HIGHER ELEVATIONS IN THE WAKE OF A SHORT
WAVE MOVING EAST OF THE GREAT LAKES. WINDS GUSTS OF 30 TO 40 KNOTS
ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH ABOUT 14Z. LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR MAY ALSO BE AN
ISSUE IN SOME OF THE LOWER ELEVATIONS AND MTN VALLEYS WHERE SOME
DECOUPLING COULD OCCUR AT TIMES.

AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN LATER THIS MORNING ALLOWING WINDS TO
DIMINISH SOMEWHAT.

SW WINDS WILL INCREASE AGAIN TONIGHT AS A COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM
THE WEST...THEN WINDS BECOME VERY STRONG WEDNESDAY BEHIND THE FRONT.
SNOW SHOWERS WILL DEVELOP AS WELL BEHIND THE FRONT AT BLF AND LWB
AIRPORTS. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD BACK INTO THE REGION ON THURSDAY
WITH A RETURN TO VFR CONDITIONS.

A STRONGER COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION ON FRIDAY...
LIKELY BRINGING WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION WITH MVFR...AND POSSIBLE
IFR...CONDITIONS.
