AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
938 PM EDT MON JUN 14 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
MOIST ATMOSPHERE AND UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES KEEP SCATTERED SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS GOING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT...FOLLOWED BY A COLD
FRONT WHICH BRINGS STORMS WEDNESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE LATE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...UPDATED
ANOTHER NIGHT...ANOTHER COMPLEX TO WORRY OVER...

AS OF 01Z...W-E BOUNDARY LOCATED JUST SOUTH OF A LINE FROM
PKB-CKB-EKN WITH SCT CONVECTION ALONG IT. HI RES MODELS HAVE DONE A
VERY GOOD JOB OF HANDLING THIS...GIVING IT A MORE NW-SE ORIENTATION
BY 03Z. THIS IS SUPPORTED BY RADAR...SATELLITE...AND SFC OBS WHICH
SHOW THIS BEGINNING TO TAKE PLACE. THIS WOULD CREATE MORE OF A
WATER WORRY GIVEN MORE FAVORABILITY FOR TRAINING OF CELLS. FINESSED
DETERMINISTIC POPS TO REFLECT THIS THINKING.

FURTHER WEST...MCS ONGOING ACROSS INDIANA. HI RES MODELS ARE DOING A
GOOD JOB HANDLING THIS AS WELL...ALBEIT MAYBE A FEW HRS TOO SLOW.
RELIED SOMEWHAT ON WRF-NMM GIVEN ITS GOOD INITIALIZATION OF 21Z RUN.
WRF INDICATES W-E H7 DEFORMATION AXIS DEVELOPS OVER OH RVR NEXT FEW
HRS...AHEAD OF MAIN LINE. SPC MESO ANALYSIS SUPPORTS THIS WITH GOOD
THETA E AXIS ALONG OH RVR IN OH AND KY. MASSAGED DETERMINISTIC POPS
ACROSS TRI STATE AND PORTIONS OF SE OH TO REFLECT THIS THINKING.

EXPECT OVERALL COMPLEX TO WEAKEN OVER NEXT SEVERAL HRS. HOWEVER IT
WILL PROBABLY REORGANIZE AND FOCUS ALONG OH RVR AREA OF SOUTHERN
OH/NORTHERN KY ALONG H7 DEFORMATION AXIS/THETA E GRADIENT...WITH
LESS OF A WORRY FOR SVR ALONG AFOREMENTIONED BOUNDARY IN OUR NECK OF
THE WOODS. WHAT THIS WILL DO IS FURTHER ENHANCE WATER CONCERNS GIVEN
ALREADY SATURATED SOILS AS IT MAKES ITS WAY INTO CWA. TIMING LOOKS
TO BE 05-09Z.

AREAS OF FG BY DAWN...ESPECIALLY FOR AREAS THAT RECIEVE RAIN.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT/...
HI-RES MODELS HAVE LOW
LEVEL BOUNDARY PUSHING INTO SE OHIO AND WESTERN WV TUES. H50 VORT
LOBE COINCIDING WITH BOUNDARY WILL GIVE FORCING TO MOIST AIR IN
PLACE. CONVECTION INITIATION WON'T BE LIMITED WITH 2000-2500 J/KG
SURFACE BASED CAPE FORECAST. BOUNDARY WILL PUSH NORTHWARD THROUGH
NORTHERN CWA THROUGH AFTERNOON TUES.

WEAK SURFACE LOW AND TRAILING COLD FRONT APPROACHES WEDS BEFORE THE
LOW DEEPENS TO OUR NORTH. 12Z GFS HAS THETA-E RIDGE PASSING BETWEEN
18Z WEDS AND 3Z TUES WITH SUBSEQUENT WIND SHIFT TO NW FLOW. HAVE
RAISED POPS TO LIKELY DURING THE AFTERNOON WEDS TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS
FROPA. CAA WEDS NIGHT WILL USHER IN A DRIER AIRMASS AS WELL AS A
MUCH NEEDED BREAK FROM ACTIVE WEATHER FOR THURS.

TWEAKED MAX AND MIN TEMPS A BIT ABOVE MAV GUIDANCE FOR TUES UNDER
STRONG H85 WAA. KEPT TUES HIGH UNDER MEX THOUGH AS CLOUD COVER
SHOULD KEEP TEMPS SOMEWHAT REGULATED. ALSO BUMPED UP LOWS TUES INTO
WEDS TO ACCOUNT FOR WAA IN THE WARM SECTOR BEFORE FROPA WEDS.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
GENERALLY FOLLOWED HPC THINKING AS HIGH PRESSURE ON THURSDAY AND
FRIDAY...GIVES WAY TO A WEAK COLD FRONT WHICH PUSHES SOUTHEAST
SATURDAY NIGHT AND EARLY SUNDAY. HIGH PRESSURE THEN BUILDS IN FOR
MONDAY.

AS A RESULT...EXPECT PRECIPITATION CHANCES WILL SPREAD EAST ACROSS
AREA EARLY SATURDAY INTO EARLY SUNDAY. NOT REAL IMPRESSED WITH
PRECIPITATION CHANCES AND HAVE TRIED TO LIMIT THE CHANCE POPS TO
THE NORTHERN COUNTIES...WHICH WILL BE CLOSEST TO THE FASTER UPPER
LEVEL FLOW AND ANY MID-LEVEL SHORTWAVES.

MODEL H8 TEMPS SUGGEST DAYTIME TEMPERATURES WILL BE ABOVE NORMAL
THROUGH THE PERIOD. GENERALLY WENT WITH HPC TEMPERATURES WITH SOME
MINOR TWEAKS...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE HIGHEST ELEVATIONS.

&&

.AVIATION /02Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
W-E ORIENTED BOUNDARY BISECTING NORTHERN CWA SERVING AS FOCUS FOR SCT
CONVECTION THIS EVENING. THIS BOUNDARY WILL GRADUALLY SHIFT TO SE
AND ORIENT ITSELF MORE TOWARD NW-SE LATER THIS EVENING. BRIEF IFR
CONDITIONS POSSIBLE IN THIS LINE BEFORE IT WEAKENS BY 03Z WITH
LOSS OF HEATING. FURTHER WEST...MCS ORGANIZING OVER IL WILL DIVE
SE THROUGH 06Z. WILL BE MONITORING FOR POSSIBLE EFFECTS ACROSS SOUTHERN
HALF OF CWA BY 05Z AS IT WEAKENS. POSSIBLE MVRF CONDITIONS FROM
KHTS- KCRW- KBKW...WITH REMNANTS. OTHERWISE...VALLEY FG WILL SET
IN AFTER 06Z...WITH IFR VIS FOR AREAS THAT RECEIVE RAINFALL.

AIRMASS STAYS IN PLACE THROUGH TUESDAY. GENERALLY VFR CONDITIONS
DURING THE DAY TUESDAY WITH ISOLATED MVFR IN SHOWERS. MIDNIGHT
THROUGH DAWN VFR WITH SCATTERED IFR IN VALLEY FOG OR SHOWERS.

AFTER 00Z WEDNESDAY...
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS AND ASSOCIATED IFR THROUGH
