AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
338 PM EDT WED MAR 19 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH THE AREA TONIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS
IN THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. A CLIPPER SYSTEM MOVES IN SATURDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AMOUNT OF WARM CONVEYOR BELT RAINFALL MOVING UP INTO THE FCST AREA
IS RELATIVELY IMPRESSIVE IN COVERAGE...IN PART DUE TO THE LACK OF
MOISTURE ROBBING DEEP CONVECTION UPSTREAM ACROSS THE CAROLINAS AND
GEORGIA. ABUNDANT CLOUDINESS HAS KEPT ATMOS ACROSS THE CWA STABLE SO
FAR...HOWEVER SEEING SOME BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS AND TEMPS IN THE 70S
AHEAD OF A THIN LINE OF CONVECTION DEVELOPING OVER TN DIRECTLY AHEAD
OF THE COLD FRONT. THIS MAY BECOME STRONG LATER THIS AFTERNOON
BEFORE PUSHING INTO OUR WESTERN COUNTIES. SO STILL A SLIGHT RISK OF
SEVERE TSTM WINDS WITH THIS FRONT.

SHARP WIND SHIFT TO THE NORTHWEST WILL FOLLOW THE FRONT WITH
ADVISORY LEVEL WINDS LIKELY AT HIGHER ELEVATIONS ALONG AND NEAR THE
BLUE RIDGE. WILL ISSUE A WIND ADVISORY FOR TONIGHT AND TMRW. LOW
LEVEL MOISTR LOOKS LIKE IT WILL BE THICK ENOUGH TO PRODUCE SOME
UPSLOPE SNOW IN THE FAR WEST...ALTHOUGH TEMPS WILL STRUGGLE TO GET
TO BELOW FRZG IN SOME AREAS...AND QPF WILL BE VERY LIGHT. NOT
EXPECTING MORE THAN AN INCH ANYWHERE...MOST OF IT FALLING IN WESTERN
GREENBRIER.

HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN BY THE END OF THE DAY THURSDAY. WESTERN
LIGHT RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS AND CLOUDS WILL DIMINISH DURING THE MORNING
OR EARLY AFTERNOON AND WINDS WILL QUICKLY DIMINISH AFTER ABOUT
4PM.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
HIGH PRESSURE SETTLES ACROSS THE AREA THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY.
FOLLOWING A GFS/ECWMF BLEND FOR THE CLIPPER SYSTEM FRIDAY NIGHT
INTO SATURDAY SHOWS MAINLY A WESTERN FORECAST AREA AFFECT FOR
PRECIPITATION. TEMPS APPEAR WARM ENOUGH WHERE MAINLY RAIN WILL BE
THE PTYPE...ALTHOUGH COULD SEE SOME LIGHT SNOW IN THE HIGHER
TERRAIN IN GREENBRIER AND BATH. ALL IN ALL A LIGHT PRECIP EVENT AS
WESTERLY WINDS INHIBIT MOISTURE GETTING BEYOND THE BLUE RIDGE.
SOME REDEVELOPMENT IS POSSIBLE OUT IN THE PIEDMONT WITH SOME
BACKING ALOFT...BUT ONLY SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS FOR NOW ON
SATURDAY. SATURDAY NIGHT WILL SEE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGING ACROSS THE
OHIO VALLEY INTO THE MID ATLANTIC.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
THIS PERIOD SHOWS POTENTIAL FOR A LATE WINTER SNOW ACROSS OUR
AREA. THE 12Z ECWMF CONTINUES TO ADVERTISE DIGGING TROUGH INTO THE
MID MS VLY AND GULF COAST BY SUNDAY NIGHT...WITH LOW PRESSURE
DEVELOPING ACROSS FL. THE 12Z ECWMF IS FURTHER SOUTH THAN ITS 00Z
ECWMF FROM LAST NIGHT...SO A TREND IN THE SWD MOVEMENT WILL MEAN
LESS PRECIP UP THIS WAY. STILL THE 12Z ECWMF BRINGS THE BEST SWATH
OF MOISTURE INTO THE CWA MONDAY. 8H TEMPS ADVERTISED IN -4 TO -6
RANGE SPELLS CHANCES OF SNOW IN THE WEST WITH RAIN/SNOW IN THE
EAST. LIMITING FACTOR IS THE HIGH SUN ANGLE. STILL TO EARLY TO
TELL...SO KEPT POPS IN THE CHANCE RANGE. IF THE STORM CONTINUES TO
TREND FURTHER SOUTH/EAST WE WILL LIKELY EXPERIENCE LITTLE PRECIP.

APPEARS THIS SYSTEM STAYS WITH US AT LEAST ON ITS CURRENT FORECAST
INTO TUESDAY MORNING BEFORE SHIFTING NORTHEAST OUT TO SEA. HIGH
PRESSURE ARRIVES TUESDAY AFTERNOON. SHOULD BE DRY INTO
WEDNESDAY...ALTHOUGH MODELS SHOWING WAA PRECIP BEGINNING TO
ENCROACH INTO THE WEST BY WED AFTENRNOON AHEAD OF A WARM FRONT IN
THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. SLIGHT CHANCE OF RAIN ONLY FOR EXTREME WRN
CWA ATTM.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
SHOWERS AND EMBEDDED TSTMS WILL PREVAIL THRU THE REMAINDER OF THE
DAY AHEAD OF A STRONG COLD FRONT. ISOLATED STORMS JUST AHEAD OF
THE FRONT MAY PRODUCE VERY STRONG WINDS AND HEAVY RAIN. FRONT
EXPECTED TO PASS THRU BLF/LWB ARND 00Z OR 01Z...ROA ARND
02Z...LYH/DAN AROUND 03Z-04Z. SHARP WIND SHIFT WILL ACCOMPANY THE
FRONT AS WELL...WITH STRONG NORTHWEST WINDS PERSISTING IN THE WAKE
OF THE FRONT THRU THURSDAY AFTN.

LOW CIGS AND SNOW SHOWERS WILL DEVELOP IN THE WEST THIS EVENING. VFR
CONDITIONS RETURN TO THE MOUNTAINS THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY.
SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE IN THE NORTHWEST ON SATURDAY WITH LOW CENTER
DROPPING SOUTHEAST.
