AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
611 PM EDT SUN JUN 1 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL FINALLY SAG SOUTH AND THROUGH THE AREA TONIGHT WITH HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDING IN ON MONDAY. ANOTHER FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL
STALL OVER THE REGION TUESDAY INTO FRIDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/...
LINE OF CONVECTION AHEAD OF FRONT PUSHING INTO WRN FA...EXPECTING
IT TO SCATTER OUT AS IT ENCOUNTERS A WESTERLY DRYING FLOW.
HOWEVER...DECIDED TO UP POPS IN THE WEST...AND TAPER THEM DOWN
OVER THE FOOTHILLS OF NC THROUGH 00Z THIS EVENING.

CONVECTION SHOULD WANE THIS EVENING AS MAIN FORCING SHIFTS SOUTH
OF THE AREA. SKIES ARE GOING TO CLEAR IN THE NORTH OVERNIGHT AND
WINDS GO LIGHT. SO EXPECTING SOME PATCHY FOG IN THE VALLEYS...NEAR
RIVERS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
MONDAY INTO MONDAY NIGHT THE HIGH PRESSURE WILL PROGRESS OVERHEAD
AND THEN SHIFT TO THE EAST OF THE REGION. A DRY FORECAST...WITH
TEMPS AROUND MET MOS...WITH MINOR ADJUSTMENTS. SHOULD BE LESS
HUMID. LATE MONDAY NIGHT WE SHOULD START TO SEE CLOUD COVER IN
THE WEST START TO INCREASE AS SOUTHERLY FLOW IN ADVANCE OF OUR
NEXT WEATHER SYSTEM DEVELOPS.

TUESDAY...LOW PRESSURE LIFTS FROM THE CENTRAL PLAINS INTO THE
LOWER GREAT ALKES WITH A SFC FRONT ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY.
SOUTHWEST FLOW INCREASING ALONG WITH DEWPOINTS AND ENOUGH SFC
CONVERGENCE FOR SCATTERED SHOWER AND STORMS IN THE WEST WITH LESS
CHANCE OUT EAST. TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY THE FRONT LINGERS
ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY BEFORE SHORTWAVE PASSES ACROSS THE MID
ATLANTIC ALONG WITH SFC LOW INTO NEW YORK. THIS SHOULD DROP THE
COLD FRONT CLOSER TO THE FORECAST AREA...BRINGING THE BEST CHANCE
OF SHRA/TSRA TO THE NORTHWEST/NORTH WEDNESDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THE COLD FRONT WILL DROP AS FAR SOUTH OF THE MASON-DIXON LINE AREA
WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY WITH ANOTHER LOW DEEPENDING ACROSS
THE CENTRAL PLAINS. STILL LOOKS LIKE CHANCE OF SHRA/TSRA MAINLY TO
THE NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA INTO THURSDAY...BEFORE
5H RIDGE BUILDS IN EARNEST FOR LATE WEEK...TRANSITIONING US INTO
A TYPICAL SUMMER LIKE REGIME WITH WARMER/MORE HUMID CONDITIONS
WITH THE AFTERNOON/EVENING SHRA/TSRA DEVELOPMENT OVER THE
MOUNTAINS FRIDAY. AS WE WORK INTO THE WEEKEND THE MAIN LOW PUSHES
INTO SOUTHEAST CANADA AND THE COLD FRONT STRINGS OUT ACROSS THE
MIDWEST/GREAT LAKES. UPPER HEIGHTS REMAIN HIGH...WITH BUT THE
FORECAST AREA IS IN THE SRN EDGE OF THE WESTERLIES...SO A
POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR A BETTER SHOT OF SHOWERS AND STORMS FOR
SATURDAY. SUNDAY WILL BE HOT WITH ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS IN THE
MOUNTAINS AS THE 5H RIDGE SURGES NWD FROM TH4E GULF COASTAL AREA
KEEPING THE MAIN STORM TRACK OVER THE OHIO VALLEY INTO PA/NY.

&&

.AVIATION /22Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED AT MOST LOCATIONS THE NEXT 24 HOURS.
THE EXCEPTION WILL BE SOME POCKETS OF MVFR CIGS/VSBYS IN
ASSOCIATION WITH SCATTERED SHRA/TSRA THAT WILL TRAVERSE MAINLY
WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS EVENING.
HOWEVER...ANY REDUCTION OF FLIGHT RULES BELOW VFR SHOULD BE SHORT
LIVED...LESS THAN AN HOUR...AT ANY ONE GIVEN LOCATION.

SURFACE WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO BE PRIMARILY FROM A WESTERLY
DIRECTION THROUGH THIS EVENING UNTIL THE ARRIVAL OF THE NEXT
REINFORCING SHOT OF COOLER AIR FROM THE WEST LATER TONIGHT...WHEN
WINDS WILL GRADUALLY VEER INTO A MORE NORTHERLY OR NORTHEASTERLY
DIRECTION.

THE ARRIVAL OF THE COOL FRONT LATER TONIGHT WILL BRING DRIER AIR
BACK INTO THE REGION AND ALLOW FOR A GRADUAL DECREASE IN CLOUD
COVER AND WIND SPEED. WITH SUBSIDENCE INCREASING OVER A MOIST
BOUNDARY LAYER...MAY SEE THE DEVELOPMENT OF SOME FOG FOR A BRIEF
PERIOD BEFORE/AROUND DAYBREAK MONDAY IN THE GREENBRIER VALLEY OF
SE WV AT KLWB...AND NEAR KBLF.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL COVER THE AREA MONDAY BRINGING VFR CONDITIONS
WITH LIGHT WINDS. YET ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE
REGION TUESDAY NIGHT OR WEDNESDAY. THIS WILL BRING ANOTHER THREAT
OF SHOWERS AND TSTMS WITH PERIODS OF MVFR...POSSIBLY IFR
CONDITIONS.
