AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
1236 PM EST MON FEB 2 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
COLD FRONT SINKS SE THROUGH WEST VIRGINIA AND SOUTHEASTERN KENTUCKY
THIS MORNING...THEN EAST OF MOUNTAINS THIS AFTERNOON. COLD AND
WINTRY PATTERN TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY...AS UPPER LEVEL LOW PASSES.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
LATEST RADAR MOSAIC SHOWS BAND OF SNOW IS CURRENTLY PUSHING
NORTHEAST ACROSS THE AREA.  APPEARS MOST OF THE SNOW IS NOT
REACHING THE GROUND. HOWEVER...A FEW STATIONS ARE REPORTING SNOW.
HAVE MADE SOME MINOR TWEAKS TO POP AND WEATHER GRIDS TO REFLECT
CURRENT DATA.

BASED ON RADAR TRENDS AND MODELS...PRECIPITATION SHOULD SPREAD
NORTHEAST WITH TIME...WHICH WAS ALREADY SHOWN IN THE GRIDS.

ALSO MADE SOME MINOR TWEAKS TO THE TEMP GRIDS.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
AS PROMISED MINOR ADJUSTMENTS MADE BETWEEN 05Z AND 07Z. REDUCED
POPS SLIGHTLY FOR PKB TO CKB THIS MORNING...THINKING BEST DYNAMICS
REMAIN FURTHER S. IF BURST OF HEAVIER SNOW DEVELOPS...WOULD THINK
IT WOULD BE OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN FROM SNOWSHOE ON S...INCLUDING
THE SRN MTNS ARND BKW.

AT 07Z FRONT WAS NEAR CKB TO CRW TO LOZ.

REST WRITTEN AT 05Z.
MOISTURE DEVELOPING/INCREASING ALONG THE FRONT AT 05Z. AT 05Z
TRIED...TRIED TO PAINT ABOUT A 50 TO 75 MILE WIDE BAND OF 60 TO 70
POPS DEVELOPING OVER TRI STATE DURING PREDAWN...THEN MOVING TO EKN
TO BKW TO LNP CORRIDOR BY 17 OR 18Z...THEN DECREASING OVER MOUNTAINS
AFTER 20Z. THINKING MOST PCPN AMOUNTS WILL BE A TENTH OF AN INCH OR
LESS...EXCEPT 1 TO 2 TENTHS OVER MOUNTAINS.  COOLING ALOFT WITH 850
TEMPERATURES FALLING QUICKLY FROM NW TO SE.  BOUNDARY LAYER
TEMPERATURE ISSUES FOR THE RIVER VALLEY TOWNS THOUGH...SO LEFT SOME
MIXTURE OF RAIN AND SNOW IN MANY AREAS.  THINKING AN INCH OR LESS OF
SNOW IN LOWLANDS TODAY...WITH 1 TO 3 INCHES IN THE MOUNTAINOUS
COUNTIES TODAY...WITH AMOUNTS HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON ELEVATIONS IN
FAYETTE COUNTY ON SW TO DICKENSON COUNTY VA.  HAVE POPS DECREASING
TO 20 PERCENT REACHING HTS-PKB CORRIDOR BY MIDDAY...THEN INTO
EKN-BKW CORRIDOR BY DARK...OR AROUND 23Z.

WILL TRY TO FINETUNE THIS NEAR TERM AS THE GRAVEYARD SHIFT CONTINUES.

LULL IN PCPN STILL EXPECTED THIS EVENING.  LOW LEVEL MOISTURE
INCREASING LATE TONIGHT WITH CHANCE POPS INCREASING IN AREAL
COVERAGE 06-12Z TUESDAY.

TEMPERATURES TRICKY...MAY GO DOWN IN BAND OF PCPN...BUT COULD RISE
SLIGHTLY IN THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY WHEN PCPN ENDS AND CEILINGS LIFTS
THIS AFTERNOON.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
STILL PREFER THE NAM FOR DETAILS WITH THE UPPER LEVEL LOW CENTER
WHICH WILL DROP INTO THE REGION ON TUESDAY.

WHILE COLD ADVECTION WILL BE ONGOING AT 12Z TUESDAY...IT IS NOT
UNTIL THE AFTERNOON WHEN DEEPER MOISTURE AND LIFT PROVIDED BY A
SERIES OF VORT MAXES TAKE HOLD.  THE BEST OF THESE CROSSES LATE
TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND TUESDAY EVENING...ALONG WITH THE H500 TROUGH
AXIS.   BEHIND THIS...DEEP LAYER NW FLOW SETS UP BY 12Z WEDNESDAY
AND LASTS THROUGH THE DAY...CREATING VERY GOOD UPSLOPE SNOW SHOWER
CONDITIONS.  WITH H850 TEMPS IN THE -10C TO -16C RANGE FOR THE
DURATION...PLUS MOISTURE UP TO 700 MB OR A BIT HIGHER ACROSS THE
CWA...SNOW CRYSTAL GROWTH WILL BE IDEAL.

AS FOR POSSIBLE AMOUNTS...MANY AREAS WEST OF THE MOUNTAINS WILL
RECEIVE THE BULK OF THEIR SNOW PRIOR TO 12Z WED...LIKELY AN INCH OR
TWO.  CANNOT RULE OUT THE NEED FOR ADVISORIES IN THE LOWLANDS IF
SNOW RATES ARE MORE INTENSE THAN ANTICIPATED.  THE MOUNTAINS FIGURE
TO RECEIVE AN 18 TO 30 HOUR PERIOD OF ACCUMULATING SNOW SHOWERS
BEFORE FLOW AND MOISTURE TAPER OFF BY WEDNESDAY EVENING.  HOISTED A
WATCH FOR FOUR NORTHERN MOUNTAIN COUNTIES...WITH A 4 TO 9 INCH
ACCUMULATION POSSIBLE OVER THE 30 HOUR DURATION OF THE WATCH.  FEEL
CONFIDENT THAT WILL WILL LIKELY ALSO NEED WATCHES IN BORDERING
COUNTIES...SAY FROM CKB TO BKW...WITH 3 TO 5 INCH TOTALS FORESEEN
AND GOOD CHANCES OF MEETING THE 3 INCH IN 12 HOUR CRITERIA.

COLDEST H850 AIR SWINGS THROUGH WEDNESDAY EVENING...AND ALONG WITH
THINNING MOISTURE...WILL ALLOW SNOW COVERAGE TO WANE.  SHOULD SEE
ONLY A FEW LINGERING SHSN/FLURRIES ALONG THE PEAKS BY 12Z THURSDAY.
OTHERWISE...SKIES SLOWLY CLEAR FROM WEST TO EAST WEDNESDAY
NIGHT...AND THURSDAY WILL FEATURE PLENTY OF SUNSHINE AND MODERATING
TEMPERATURES.

GENERALLY WENT AT OR BELOW THE COLDER MOS GUIDANCE FOR TEMPS THROUGH
THE PERIOD.  WILL HAVE TO PARTICULARLY WATCH LOW TEMPS WEDNESDAY
NIGHT.  IF WINDS ARE ABLE TO DECOUPLE...CLEARING SKIES AND A FRESH
SNOWPACK COULD REALLY ALLOW THE NUMBERS TO TUMBLE.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
MODELS ARE IN GENERAL AGREEMENT THROUGH FRIDAY...WITH SOME
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE GFS AND ECMWF ON THE POSITION OF THE FRONT
AND THE UPPER RIDGE STRENGTH OVER THE SERN US NEXT WEEKEND.
INITIALLY...RAN WITH THE STRONG UPSLOPE SET UP ON WEDNESDAY WITH THE
STRONG NW FLOW AND DEEP MOISTURE...THROUGH 700 MB THROUGH 18Z
WED...AND THE COLD AIR REACH -20C. THE UPSLOPE CONDITIONS CONTINUE
INTO WED NIGHT BEFORE TAPERING OFF AS WARM ADVECTION BEGINS THURSDAY
MORNING.

THE UPPER TROUGH SHIFT EAST OF THE REGION BY THURSDAY NIGHT AS HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE REGION.  DESPITE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING
INTO THE AREA ON THURSDAY AND THE SUN RETURNING...HELD TEMPERATURES
DOWN SOME STILL...FOLLOWING THE LEAD FROM YESTERDAY WHERE THE
WARMING ALOFT DID NOT IMMEDIATELY TRANSLATE TO THE SURFACE.

WITH HEIGHTS BUILDING FRIDAY AND SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW
DEVELOPING...SHOULD BEGIN TO SEE THE WARM UP TAKING SHAPE.  THE DRY
SUN FILLED DAY WITH SOME LIGHT WINDS SHOULD ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO
CLIMB INTO THE UPPER 40S TO AROUND 50 DEGREES.

THE CHALLENGES BEGIN ON THE WEEKEND AS THE GFS TRIES TO BREAK DOWN
THE UPPER RIDGE AND ALLOW THE COLD FRONT TO SLIDE ACROSS THE AREA.
THIS WOULD INTRODUCE MORE CLOUDS...RAIN...AND COOLER TEMPERATURES.
WHERE AS THE GFS HOLDS THE FRONT TO THE NORTH AND LEAVES IT THERE
THROUGH THE WEEKEND.  THE PATTERN SHOWN BY THE ECMWF LOOKS REALISTIC
SO WHILE THE FORECAST DOES HAVE SOME LOW CHANCE POPS ADDED...THEY
SHOULD BE MOSTLY LIKELY IN THE NRN PART OF THE CWA OR MAYBE EVEN A
TOUCH FURTHER NORTH.  FOR TEMPERATURES THOUGH HAVE GONE ON THE
HIGHER SIDE OF THE GUIDANCE BASED ON THE ANTICIPATION THAT THE FRONT
WILL REMAIN TO THE NORTH.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AT 18Z...COLD FRONT ANALYZED ACROSS THE MOUNTAIN COUNTIES. A
NARROW BAND OF LOW CLOUDS AND SNOW WITH IFR/LIFR CONDITIONS
EXTENDED FROM NR CKB TO CRW TO JKL. OUTSIDE OF THIS BAND...
VFR/MVFR CONDITIONS PREVAILED.

THE BAND OF SNOW AND LOW CLOUDS WITH IFR/LIFR CONDITIONS SHOULD
GRADUALLY PUSH EAST OUT OF THE LOWLAND COUNTIES BY 21Z...BUT
CONTINUE IN THE MOUNTAINS UNTIL 02Z. AS THIS BAND PUSHES EAST OF
AN AREA...CONDITIONS WILL IMPROVE TO VFR.

AN UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM WILL THEN PUSH INTO THE REGION LATE
TONIGHT. IN RESPONSE...EXPECT CONDITIONS WILL DETERIORATE TO
MVFR/LCL IFR FROM THE WEST AFTER 12Z.

AVIATION OUTLOOK /BEYOND 18Z TUESDAY/...
VARIABLE VISIBILITY IN WIDESPREAD SNOW SHOWERS TUESDAY AFTERNOON
THROUGH WEDNESDAY. OCNL IFR IN THESE SNOW SHOWERS...WITH THESE
CONDITIONS BEING MOSE PERSISTENT ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS.
