AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
150 PM EDT TUE APR 21 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
DEEP LOW PRESSURE ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES WILL LIFT SLOWLY
NORTHWARD TODAY AND WEDNESDAY...BRINGING COOLER WEATHER TO THE
AREA. MEANWHILE AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL BRING NUMEROUS
SHOWERS...AND POSSIBLY A FEW THUNDERSTORMS...TO THE AREA TODAY.
ANOTHER DISTURBANCE WILL BRING SHOWERS TO THE MOUNTAINS LATE
TONIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE SHOULD FINALLY BUILD IN ON
THURSDAY RESULTING IN DRIER AND MUCH WARMER WEATHER FOR THE END OF
THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 8 PM THIS EVENING/...
ALTHOUGH ATMS NOT AS MOIST AS YESTERDAY...COLD VALUES ALOFT ALONG
WITH HEATING SHOULD ALLOW SHOWERS AND TSTORMS TO FIRE ALONG THE
BLUE RIDGE AND MOVE EAST THROUGH THE DAY. STILL SOME STORMS
POSSIBLE ALONG SE WEST VA EARLIER TODAY. DIFFERENTIAL HEATING
BOUNDARY WILL BE ENHANCED WITH OVC SKIES AND SHOWERS JUST WEST OF
MOST FAVORED AREA FOR TSTORM DEVELOPMENT THIS PM. LYH/DAN
CORRIDOR WARMING QUICKLY THIS MORNING AND INCREASED HIGH TEMPS
THERE. HAIL AND DMG WIND GUSTS PRIMARY THREAT WITH TODAYS
CONVECTION. CHC FOR TSTORMS MAY BE LIMITED WEST OF THE BLUE RIDGE
WITH THIS MORNINGS SHOWERS AND DRY PUNCH AT H5 ARRIVING AFTER 18Z.

PREV DISC...
COLD FRONT IS NOW WELL EAST OF THE AREA...BUT WEAK FLOW BEHIND THE
FRONT HAS KEPT THE DRIER AIR ALONG AND WEST OF THE MTNS. DEWPOINTS
REMAIN IN THE 40S ALONG AND EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE. MEANWHILE...A
SECONDARY STRONG SHORT WAVE DIGGING INTO THE TROUGH SHOWS UP WELL
ON WATER VAPOR MOVG INTO WRN KY. MODELS BRING THIS FEATURE ACROSS
THE CENTRAL/SRN APPLNS AT PEAK HTG TODAY BETWEEN 18 AND 00Z.
SHOULD BE PLENTY OF SUN INTO EARLY AFTERNOON EAST OF THE MTNS TO
BRING SFC TEMPS UP TO 65 TO 70. THIS WILL PRODUCE STEEP LAPSE
RATES FROM THE SFC TO AROUND 700 MBS OF 9 DEG/KM OR HIGHER. WITH
THE UPPER LEVEL FORCING ASSOCIATED WITH THE SHORT WAVE...I EXPECT
GOOD COVERAGE OF SHOWERS ACROSS THE CWA...AND AT LEAST ISOLD TSTMS
ALONG AND EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE WHERE THE BETTER SFC HTG WILL
OCCUR. THINK THE NAM MODEL HAS A BETTER HANDLE ON THIS. I WANTED
TO BE CLOSER TO MET GUIDANCE POPS...SO HAVE RAISED POPS TO HAVE
LIKELY FOR SOME PERIOD TODAY FRO ALL AREAS EXCEPT THE NW PIED AND
FOOTHILLS OF NC AND SOUTHSIDE VA...WHERE I HAVE RAISED POPS TO A
HIGH CHC. WITH THE FREEZING LEVEL AROUND 6000 FT...THERE IS A GOOD
CHANCE FOR SMALL HAIL WITH ANY TSTMS...AND IN ADDITION GUSTY WINDS
WITH AN INVERTED V TYPE SOUNDING. HAVE KEPT THE WORDING FOR THIS
THAT WE ALREADY HAD IN THE FCST. DEPENDING ON HOW UNSTABLE WE
GET...STORMS WILL HAVE TO BE WATCHED FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF LARGE
HAIL AND MAYBE DAMAGING WINDS. WILL ADD SOMETHING TO THE HAZARDOUS
WEATHER OUTLOOK TO MENTION THIS THREAT.

TIMING OF SHORT WAVE IS QUICK ENOUGH THAT THE MAJORITY OF
SHOWERS/POSS TSTMS WILL BE PUSHING EAST OF THE CWA BY AROUND 00Z.
I HAVE KEPT A LOW CHC POP IN THE EAST THRU 00Z FOR THE POSSIBILITY
OF SLOWER MVMNT...AND HAVE CHC POPS IN THE WESTERN SLOPES AREAS OF
THE MTNS FOR SHOWERS THRU THE EVENING. MODELS...PARTICULARLY THE
NAM...SWINGS ANOTHER STRONG SHORT WAVE THRU THE AREA 06-15Z WED.
HAVE RAISED POPS FOR WESTERN SLOPES AREAS LATE TONIGHT. TEMPS WILL
BE COLD ENOUGH THAT HIGHER ELEVATIONS WILL LIKELY SEE SOME
SNOW...BUT THE GROUND WILL BE WARM ENOUGH THAT I EXPECT LITTLE OR
NO SNOW ACCUMULATION.

&&

.SHORT TERM /8 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
ON WEDNESDAY...THE LAST IN A SERIES OF SHORTWAVE TROUGHS IS EXPECTED
TO MOVE THROUGH THE AREA. FOCUS FOR ADDITIONAL PRECIPITATION WILL
REMAIN THE PREFERRED UPSLOPE AREAS OF SOUTHEAST WEST VIRGINIA AND
NEIGHBORING PORTIONS OF SOUTHWEST VIRGINIA...SOUTH INTO THE NORTHERN
MOUNTAINS NORTH CAROLINA. VERY EARLY IN THE MORNING
WEDNESDAY...TEMPERATURES LOOK TO STILL BE COLD ENOUGH IN HIGHER
PARTS THE AREA FOR SOME SNOW SHOWERS...BUT PROBABLY NOT PAST ABOUT 8
OR 9 AM. AN INCREASING WESTERLY WIND WILL HELP MIX DOWN DRIER AIR
ALOFT INTO PORTIONS OF THE AREA EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE. HAVE FAVORED
DEW POINT VALUES LOWER THAN GUIDANCE BECAUSE OF THIS. HAVE ALSO
TRENDED HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE EAST A BIT HIGHER AS WELL.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT...AS DRIER AIR CONTINUES TO STREAM INTO THE
AREA...LOOK FOR A TREND OF DECREASING COVERAGE OF PRECIPITATION AND
CLOUD COVER IN THE MOUNTAINS. WITH COLD AIR ADVECTION
CONTINUING...WE EXPECT LOW TEMPERATURES 3 TO 5 DEGREES COLDER THAN
THOSE EXPECTED TONIGHT.

ON THURSDAY...DRY SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE AREA WHILE
THE FLOW AT 850 MB REMAINS W-NW. EXPECTING ANOTHER DAY...PERHAPS
EVEN MORE SO THAN WEDNESDAY...WHERE MODELS ARE TOO HIGH ON SURFACE
DEW POINTS EAST OF THE CREST OF THE BLUE RIDGE. HAVE LOWERED DEW
POINTS ACCORDINGLY. EXPECTING HIGH TEMPERATURES 5 TO 10 DEGREES
MILDER THAN THOSE EXPECTED WEDNESDAY...60S IN THE MOUNTAINS...UPPER
60S TO NEAR 70 EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE.

THURSDAY NIGHT...HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS IN CONTROL OF OUR WEATHER
PATTERN. EXPECT MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES AND LOW TEMPERATURES TRENDING
MILDER...UPPER 30S TO AROUND 40 IN THE MOUNTAINS...LOWER 40S EAST.

FRIDAY...THE CENTER OF HIGH PRESSURE SHIFTS TO OUR EAST AND THE
UPPER RIDGE BUILDS OVER THE AREA. 850 MB TEMPS ALSO ARE EXPECTED TO
INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY...13 TO 15C AT 00Z SATURDAY. WILL HAVE LOW TO
MID 70S IN THE MOUNTAINS TO UPPER 70S EAST. THE GFS IS SUGGESTING
SOME CONVECTIVE PRECIPITATION TO DEVELOP NEAR THE CREST OF THE BLUE
RIDGE THANKS TO AFTERNOON HEATING. AT THIS POINT...WILL NOT BITE ON
THIS POTENTIAL AND ONLY INCREASE POPS TO JUST SHY OF THE SLIGHT
CHANCE CATEGORY IN THIS AREA.

FRIDAY NIGHT...WE CONTINUE TO TREND MILDER WITH UPPER 40S TO AROUND
50 IN THE MOUNTAINS...TO LOWER 50S EAST. WE MAY START TO SEE A BIT
MORE HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS STREAMING INTO WESTERN PARTS OF THE AREA BY
SATURDAY MORNING.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
PATTERN WILL BE AMPLIFIED THIS PERIOD...AS THE UPPER RIDGE STAYS CENTERED
ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST. THE 00Z ECMWF WAS MAINLY FOLLOWED. OUTSIDE
OF SOME ISOLATED MTN CONVECTION SAT AFTERNOON AS WEAK SHORTWAVE
PUSHES NORTH OF THE RIDGE...THE FORECAST WILL REMAIN DRY AND WARM.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
SCATTERED SHWS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS WILL AFFECT ALL TERMINALS
FOR THE REST OF TODAY. LINE OF SHWS NOW JUST SW OF KMTV MAY EVOLVE
INTO A LINE OF STORMS WITH SMALL HAIL AND GUSTY WINDS NEAR KDAN
LATER TODAY. GUSTY WINDS/SMALL HAIL ALSO MAY OCCUR ATTM JUST WEST OF
KLWB...ALTHOUGH THIS CLUSTER IS MOVING OFF TO THE NE. CONVECTIVE SHWS
WILL DIE OFF THIS EVENING...AND THEN ANOTHER DISTURBANCE WILL
ENTER THE REGION LATER TONIGHT. SHWS...POSSIBLY MIXING WITH WET SNOW
LWB/BLF NEAR DAWN....COULD PRODUCE IFR CIGS. SHWS WILL REMAIN
POSSIBLE LWB/BLF THROUGH THE END OF THE TAF PERIOD. ALSO...WINDS
MAY GUST TO 30 KTS LWB/BLF/ROA...ESPECIALLY IF ANY CLEARING OCCURS
WED MORNING...AS DECENT WINDS ALOFT WILL BE EASILY MIXED DOWN WITH
IMPRESSIVE LLVL LAPSE RATES. NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION THAT ISOLATED
STORMS DEVELOP AGAIN FROM LYH/DAN...WITH SOMEWHAT LESS RH BUT COLD
AIR ALOFT REMAINING.

ONCE THE SHORT WAVE PASSES BY WEDNESDAY NOON...THE SHOWERS WILL
TAPER OFF BUT UPSLOPE FLOW WILL KEEP LOW CEILINGS ACROSS THE MTNS.
SKIES SHOULD CLEAR EAST OF THE MOUNTAINS WED NIGHT...WHILE SE WV
WILL CONTINUE TO SEE LOW CEILINGS. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM
THE SOUTHWEST THURSDAY RESULTING IN A RETURN TO MAINLY VFR FOR
WEEKS END.
