AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
1046 AM EDT SAT SEP 6 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
HANNA WILL ACCELERATE NORTH THIS MORNING THROUGH EASTERN NORTH
CAROLINA AND THEN NORTHEAST THROUGH EASTERN VIRGINIA THIS
AFTERNOON. RAINFALL WILL EXIT THE REGION BY LATE THIS AFTERNOON.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL SLOWLY BUILD ACROSS THE AREA FOR THE FIRST OF
NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
THE WESTERN EDGE OF THE PCPN SHIELD IS MOVING STEADILY EASTWARD
NOW. HAVE UPDATED THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH TO REMOVE ROCKINGHAM
COUNTY. STILL HAVE FLASH FLOOD WARNINGS GOING FOR MUCH OF THE REST
OF THE WATCH...SO WILL KEEP IT GOING. HOWEVER...IT DOES LOOK LIKE
WE WILL BE ABLE TO CANCEL ALL OR PART OF IT LATER THIS AFTERNOON.
OTHER CHANGES TO THE FORECAST WERE TO SPEED UP THE ENDING OF THE
RAIN FOR MUCH OF THE AREA. WILL STILL BE HANGING ON IN THE NERN
CWA LATER THIS AFTERNOON...BUT PROBABLY NOT HEAVY RAIN. PROBLEM
WILL BE THAT SLOWER RESPONDING CREEKS AND STREAMS MAY STILL BE
RISING THIS AFTERNOON. HIGH TEMPS WERE ON TRACK EVEN THOUGH THE
CURRENT TEMPS WERE TOO WARM- STILL LOOKS LIKE THERE WILL BE SOME
SUN THIS AFTERNOON FOR ALL BUT NERN ZONES. FINALLY...I INCREASED
WINDS IN THE MTNS THIS AFTERNOON EXPECTING GOOD MIXING WITH 20+ KT
850 MB WINDS ON THE BACK SIDE OF HANNA.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTROL OUR WEATHER FOR SUNDAY INTO THE BEGINNING
OF NEXT WEEK. DEWPOINTS MIXING OUT IN THE AFTERNOON COULD PRODUCE
LOW TEMPS IN THE 50S TO NEAR 60F REGION WIDE MONDAY AND TUESDAY
MORNING. ALTHOUGH OP NAM/GFS ARE SQUEEZING OUT A TOUCH OF PRECIP ON
MONDAY...BUT THIS IS PROBABLY BECAUSE DEWPOINTS ARE TOO WARM. FOR
NOW...JUST HAVE SLT CHC POPS IN THE EXTREME NW NC MOUNTAINS. TEMPS
WILL WARM UP NICELY AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT WHICH SHOULD ARRIVE IN
THE LONG TERM.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
EXPECTING FRONTAL PASSAGE LATE TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY
MORNING...NOT EXPLICITLY FOLLOWING LR MODELS...BECAUSE OF THEIR
TYPICAL FAST BIAS WITH COLD FRONTS THIS MANY DAYS AWAY.
THUS...TUESDAY MAY STILL BE A NICE DAY IN THE CENTRAL AND SE
SECTIONS OF THE CWA...PROBABLY THE WARMEST DAY OF THE NEXT SEVERAL
WITH SW FLOW AHEAD OF THE FRONT. THE OP GFS AND THE ECMWF ARE TWO
DIFFERENT SIDES...IN RELATION TO THEIR AMPLITUDE IN THE UPPER FLOW
INTO THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. THIS HAS HUGE IMPLICATIONS ON THE
EVENTUAL TRACK OF IKE. THE OP GFS IS DEEPEST WITH THE TROUGH AND
HINTS AT A TURN TO THE NORTH..SIMILAR TO HANNA...WHEREAS THE MORE
FLAT ECMWF TAKES IT ACROSS FL AND INTO THE GULF. HARD TO TOTALLY
DISCOUNT THE OP GFS...CONSIDERING THE RIDGING BUILDING ALONG THE
WEST COAST...BUT FOR NOW WILL PLAY THE MIDDLE ROAD BETWEEN THE TWO.
NONETHELESS...ANOTHER FRONT IS EXPECTED TO ENTER THE WESTERN HALF
OF THE CWA AT THE END OF THE FORECAST...AND EITHER THAT MAY BRING
PRECIP OR WHATEVER FORM/LOCATION IKE IS IN IF IT MAKES A TURN
TOWARDS THE SE COAST. THUS...PLACED HIGHEST POPS IN FRIDAY NIGHT.
FOR TEMPS...THE OP GFS WAS THE COLDEST AT H85...AND THE ECMWF THE
COLDEST...SO AGAIN USED VALUES IN BETWEEN FOR H85 ADJUSTMENTS/MAX
MIN TEMPS.

&&

.AVIATION /15Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
FIRST SUBSTANTIAL RAINBAND FROM HANNA IS ON THE DOORSTEP OF KDAN
AT 0530Z. EXPECTING THIS BAND TO CONTINUE ITS TRACK INTO THE
REGION WITH COVERAGE AND INTENSITY WEAKENING AS IT DOES SO...BEING
NEAR A KBLF-KLWB LINE AROUND 10Z. EXPECTING A MIX OF IFR/LIFR
CIGS/VSBYS TO ACCOMPANY THIS BAND ESPECIALLY IN AREAS EAST OF THE
BLUE RIDGE FOR ABOUT A 2 TO 3 HOUR PERIOD AFTER ITS ONSET.

AFTER A BRIEF BREAK IN THE HEAVIER INTENSITIES IN REGIONS EAST OF
THE BLUE RIDGE...WINDS WILL BEGIN TO INCREASE FROM THE N-NE
TOWARDS 12Z AS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT INTENSIFIES AS THE CENTER OF
HANNA MOVES ALONG THE EAST COAST. SUSTAINED WINDS 15 TO 20 KTS
AROUND KLYH AND KDAN ARE EXPECTED WITH GUSTS AROUND 30 KTS
POSSIBLE. PRECIPITATON ALSO IN THIS AREA WILL BE HEAVIEST WITH A
MIX OF IFR/MVFR CONDITIONS. AREAS WEST OF KROA WILL MORE LIKELY
SEE MVFR/VFR CONDIONTS BY MID-MORNING.

BY THE AFTERNOON MUCH OF THE PRECIPITATION AND SUB-VFR CONDITIONS
WILL HAVE PROGRESSED OUT OF THE AREA. WE WILL STILL NEED TO WATCH
FOR AFTERNOON CONVECTION IN THE SE WV MOUNTAINS AS WINDS BECOME
MORE NORTHWEST AND THE POTENTIAL FOR ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND STORMS
CONTINUES HERE. THIS EVENING...A CONTINUATION OF THE NORTHWEST
FLOW AND RESIDUAL MOISTURE MAY ALLOW FOR MVFR VSBYS/CIGS TO
REDEVELOP AFTER 03Z. EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE...NORTHWEST
DOWNSLOPING WINDS WILL ALLOW FOR CLEARING SKIES.

MOUNTAIN AND RIVER VALLEY IFR/MVFR FOG WILL BE POSSIBLE EACH NIGHT
THIS WEEKEND.

A COLD FRONT WILL BRING A RETURN OF SHRA/TSRA ON TUESDAY.
