AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
730 AM EDT FRI MAY 9 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA THIS MORNING. ANOTHER STRONG
AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL TRACK ACROSS THE REGION SUNDAY BRINGING
ANOTHER RAOUND OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. A TROUGH DEVELOPING
IN THE EASTERN UNITED STATES WILL PROVIDE MORE OPPORTUNITIES FOR
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
LOW PRESSURE OVER SOUTHWEST VA WILL MOVE EAST OF THE AREA BY THIS
AFTERNOON. THUNDERSTORMS HAVE FINALLY MOVED EAST OF CHARLOTTE AND
HALIFAX COUNTIES...SO THE TORNADO WATCH HAS BEEN CANCELLED FOR
THOSE COUNTIES. WEST TO NORTHWEST WINDS ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE
LOW WILL BRING PARTIAL CLEARING TO AREAS EAST OF THE MTNS. LIGHT
SHOWERS MAY CONTINUE THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS IN UPSLOPE AREAS OF
SE WV. RUNOFF FROM HEAVY RAIN OVERNIGHT WILL CONTINUE TO CAUSE
HIGH WATER PROBLEMS IN SOUTHSIDE VA AND THE NW PIEDMONT OF NC.

NEXT WEAK WAVE TO AFFECT THE AREA IS ALREADY OVER SW MO...SO ANY
PRECIP WITH THAT FEATURE SHOULD MAINLY AFFECT THE AREA TONIGHT
WITH HIGHEST POPS IN THE MTNS- SO I RAISED POPS TONIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
WITH THE WAVE PASSING BY SATURDAY MORNING...SOME SHOWERS SHOULD
SURVIVE INTO THE MORNING. OTHERWISE...HAVE LOWERED POPS TO SLIGHT
CHC IN THE JUST THE MTNS FOR THE AFT HOURS. BECAUSE OF MORE SUN
EXPECTED AND ONLY WEAK COLD ADVECTION...I HAVE RAISED MAX TEMPS A
FEW DEGREES. WILL BE ANOTHER CHC OF STRONG STORMS ON SUNDAY...WITH
H3 JET STREAK TAKING AIM ON THE PIEDMONT...AND AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE PASSING THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY. WEDGE WILL BE REMAINING
FOR PART OF THE DAY IN THE EAST...WHICH SHOULD ALLOW FOR POTENT
LLVL SHEAR AS OCCLUSION/WARM FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE SOUTH AND
WEST. CONSIDERING THE POTENTIAL FOR HVY RAINS LEADING UP TO THIS
EVENT...WATER PROBLEMS MAY DEVELOP WITH THE GROUND SATURATED.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
ACTIVE PATTERN TAKING SHAPE DURING THE LONG TERM...WITH RIDGE IN
THE WEST AND TROUGH IN THE EAST. SHRTWVS EJECTING FROM ALEUTIAN
LOW WILL BE DIRECTED INTO THE MIDWEST...ONLY AMPLIFYING THE
EASTERN TROUGH FURTHER BY THURSDAY/FRIDAY. BASICALLY FOLLOWED THE
ECMWF...ALTHOUGH THE GFS IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT THIS FAR OUT.

&&

.AVIATION /12Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
LOW CIGS IN THE LULL PERIOD BEFORE WEST TO NORTHWEST WINDS ON THE
BACK SIDE OF LOW PRESSURE CURRENTLY OVER SOUTHWEST VIRGINIA SHOULD
IMPROVE DURING THE DAY. UPSLOPE SE WV INCLUDING BLF AND LWB WILL
BE MUCH SLOWER TO IMPROVE.

A WEAK SHORT WAVE WILL BRING A WARM FRONT BACK NORTHWARD THROUGH
THE AREA TONIGHT. THIS WILL LIKELY BRING ANOTHER ROUND OF SHOWERS
...ALONG WITH POSSIBLE MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS. FINALLY... ANOTHER
STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION LATE
SUNDAY. THIS WILL BRING ANOTHER ROUND OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS...ALONG WITH POSSIBLE MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS. WINDS MAY
BE STRONG AND GUSTY BEHIND THIS LOW PRESSURE LATE SUNDAY NIGHT AND
MONDAY.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
FLOODING IS ONGOING IN PLACES FROM CONTINUED RUNOFF FROM THE HEAVY
RAIN OVERNIGHT. LARGER STREAM AND MAIN STEM RIVERS WILL STILL SEE
RISING WATER THROUGH AT LEAST THIS MORNING. PRELIMINARY THINKING
IS THAT THERE WILL BE MINOR FLOODING ALONG THE DAN RIVER. WILL
ISSUE AN RVS TO THAT EFFECT WHILE WAITING FOR A FORECAST FROM THE
RIVER FORECAST CENTER.

.RNK WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
