AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
545 PM EDT SUN MAR 28 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE EAST OUT OF THE OHIO VALLEY EARLY TONIGHT...
THEN REDEVELOP ALONG THE MID ATLANTIC COAST AND MOVE SLOWLY NORTH
LATE TONIGHT INTO TUESDAY. THIS SYSTEM WILL BRING HEAVY RAIN TO
PORTIONS OF THE MID ATLANTIC REGION TONIGHT...TAPERING OFF TO
INTERMITTENT SHOWERS ON MONDAY INTO TUESDAY.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING CLEARING SKIES AND MUCH WARMER WEATHER
TO THE AREA FROM MID WEEK INTO NEXT WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/...
UPDATING THE FORECAST TO DROP WIND ADVISORY IN THE WEST. WIND FLOW
IS MORE OUT OF THE SSW ATTM...AND THE 8H LLJ HAS SHIFTED EAST INTO
THE FOOTHILLS. GETTING MORE CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING STRIKES...SO
ADDED THUNDER IN ALL THE ZONES...WITH SMALL HAIL POSSIBLE ALONG/EAST
OF THE BLUE RIDGE THRU 00Z. STILL LOOKING AT THE BEST HEAVY RAIN
THREAT OVER THE ERN HALF OF THE CWA THIS EVENING UNDER THE STRONG
LLJ JET AND BEING IN A FAVORABLE JET COUPLET ALOFT.

WILL KEEP FLOOD WATCH UP FOR TONIGHT WITH THE ASSOCIATED
CONVECTION CREATED BY THE MOIST SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW AHEAD OF THE
LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM IN KY. THIS LOW PRESSURE CENTER WILL MOVE
NORTHEAST INTO TONIGHT...THEN REDEVELOP ALONG THE MID ATLANTIC
COAST AND MOVE SLOWLY NORTH TONIGHT INTO MONDAY. DECIDED TO LEANED
TOWARDS A BLEND OF NAM/ECMWF FOR POPS AND WEATHER.

WITH THE RELATIVELY LOW FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE FROM RECENT
RAINS....ANY TRAINING OF THUNDERSTORMS WITH HEAVY RAIN WILL RESULT
IN FLOODING PROBLEMS. NORTH-SOUTH BANDS STARTING TO FORM EAST OF
THE BLUE RIDGE AS EXPECTED ALONG THE 85H THETA-E AXIS THIS
EVENING.

WILL HOLD ON TO THE QPF OF 1-3 INCHES DEPENDING ON UPSLOPE AND
THUNDERSTORM FORMATION. EXPECT THE HEAVIEST RAIN MAY END UP SLIDING
VERY SLOWLY ACROSS THE PIEDMONT OVERNIGHT WITH TRAINING AND BACK
BUILDING OF SHRA POSSIBLE AS YET ANOTHER IMPULSE RIDES UP THE
BOUNDARY. AXIS OF HEAVIER SHRA SHOULD FINALLY PUSH INTO THE EXTREME
EASTERN CWA AFTER 06Z WITH ONLY LEFTOVER LIGHTER SHRA TO THE WEST.
KEPT THE IDEA OF RISING TEMPERATURE READINGS IN THE EAST TONIGHT
WITH SLOW FALLS LATE IN THE WEST AS THE FLOW COMES AROUND TO THE
WEST LATE.

WITH MODEL BIAS TENDING TO REMOVE POPS TOO QUICKLY FROM THE
EXTREME SE PORTION OF THE CWA AS LOW PRESSURE MOVES TOWARDS THE
COAST...HELD ONTO TO HIGHER POPS IN THE EAST 12Z TO 18Z MONDAY.
THEN...TRIED TO DRY OUT THE MIDDLE BETWEEN EXITING LOW AND THE
UPSLOPE IN THE WEST. WENT WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES FROM THE UPPER 40S
IN THE NORTHWEST TO THE LOWER 60S IN THE SOUTHEAST CLOSER TO THE
COOL GUIDANCE WITH THE ADDITIONAL CLOUD COVER.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
TRICKY FORECAST FOR MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY NIGHT. GFS THE
OUTLIER OF THE SHORT-MIDTERM MODELS IN THE IMPACT OF A STRONG
SHORT WAVE TROF THAT WILL MOVE EAST AND NORTHEAST OUT OF SOUTHERN
ARKANSAS AND SIGNIFICANTLY AMPLIFY AND SLOW THE UPPER TROF MOVING
EAST OUT OF THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY. THE MORE AGGRESSIVE GFS
SOLUTION RESULTS IN A MUCH SLOWER UPPER AND SURFACE LOW THAT
ALLOWS WRAP AROUND MOISTURE IN THE DEFORMATION ZONE TO LINGER OVER
BLACKSBURG FORECAST AREA MUCH LONGER THAN DEPICTED BY EITHER THE
NAM OR ECMWF.

LATEST DISCUSSION FROM HPC IS INDICATING THAT GFS IS SUFFERING FROM
CONVECTIVE GRID-SCALE FEEDBACK ACROSS FLORIDA/SE COAST THAT EVENTUALLY
CONTRIBUTES TO QUESTIONABLY STRONG PHASING WITH AND SLOWING OF THE
PARENT CYCLONE. AGREE WITH HPC THAT BLEND OF THE NAM/ECMWF EARLY
BEFORE TRANSITIONING AWAY FROM THE NAM AND TOWARD THE ECWMF AND
ENSEMBLE MEANS LATE IN THE PERIOD IS WARRANTED.

THE LATTER SOLUTIONS SUPPORT THE THREAT OF WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION
UNDER THE DEFORMATION ZONE OF THE UPPER LOW MOVING OUT OF THE
NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE BLACKSBURG FORECAST AREA BY EARLY MONDAY
NIGHT...TO BE REPLACED BY MAINLY DIURNALLY-DRIVEN SHOWERS UNDER
THE UPPER COOL...AND SOME UPSLOPING ACROSS THE WEST...TUESDAY
INTO TUESDAY EVENING. SOME WET SNOW MAY EVEN MIX IN AT TIMES ACROSS
THE HIGHER TERRAIN AS COLDER AIR SPREADS INTO THE REGION ON THE
BACKSIDE OF THE DEPARTING SYSTEM.

SURFACE AND UPPER HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING INTO THE AREA FROM THE
WEST SHOULD ALLOW FOR SKIES TO GRADUALLY CLEAR TUESDAY NIGHT...WITH
DRY AND WARMER WEATHER TO RETURN ON WEDNESDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
LOW PRESSURE PINWHEELING OVER THE ATLANTIC AND DEEP FULL LATITUDE
TROF OVER THE WESTERN PORTION OF THE NATION WILL ESTABLISH A STABLE
OMEGA BLOCK...WITH FULL LATITUDE UPPER RIDGING OVER THE EASTERN
PORTION OF THE NATION THROUGH THE LONG TERM PERIOD. SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE EXPECTED TO REMAIN OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES THROUGH
MUCH OF THE PERIOD...MAINTAINING SOUTHWESTERLY-WESTERLY SURFACE
FLOW OVER THE BLACKSBURG FORECAST AREA.

850 MILLIBAR TEMPERATURES FORECAST TO RISE INTO 16-18C RANGE...
AND WITH ABUNDANT INSOLATION EXPECTED...WILL LIKELY SEE TEMPERATURES
REACH WELL INTO THE 60S-MID 70S IN THE MOUNTAINS...WITH READINGS
IN THE LOWER TO MID 80S QUITE POSSIBLE EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE DUE
TO ADDITIONAL BENEFIT OF COMPRESSIONAL DOWNSLOPE WARMING.

AIR MASS EXPECTED TO REMAIN FAIRLY DRY THROUGH THE PERIOD...WITH
DEW POINTS GENERALLY IN THE 40S...SO EXPECT GOOD DIURNAL
TEMPERATURE CURVE. NIGHTTIME LOWS SHOULD RANGE FROM THE 40S IN THE
DEEPER MOUNTAIN VALLEYS...TO MAINLY 50S BY THE END OF THE PERIOD
ACROSS THE PIEDMONT.

&&

.AVIATION /22Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS WITH LOW CLOUDS AND RAIN WILL CONTINUE THIS
AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT. WITH A STRONG LOW LVL JET WILL KEEP MENTION
OF LLWS AT ALL SITES OTHER THAN KBLF WHERE ENOUGH MIXING TO PRECLUDE
MENTION. AN AXIS OF HEAVIER SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL
WORK WEST TO EAST. (THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
WITH HAIL AND WINDS ACROSS NORTH CAROLINA THIS AFTERNOON.) GIVEN LOW
LEVEL EAST/SE FLOW EXPECTING LOW CIGS SUB 1KFT AT MOST TAF SITES.
CONFIDENCE REMAINS HIGH FOR ROANOKE/LYH AND LWB. THE COOLER WEDGE
SHOULD BREAK IN THE SOUTHWEST AND SOUTHEAST THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING
AND WITH STEADIER MORE MODERATE TO HEAVY SHOWERS EXPECTED...VSBYS
COULD RANGE FROM 1-3SM...BUT CIGS WILL JUMP UP ABOVE 1KFT DURING THE
HEAVIER CONVECTION.

OTRW POOR FLYING CONDITIONS THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT WITH LOTS
OF MOUNTAIN OBSCURATION... OVER THE WEST AND HEAVIER RAINFALL
ESPECIALLY IN THE EAST. LEANING TOWARDS NAM OVER GFS MODEL
SOLUTION.

UPPER LOW AND CYCLONIC FLOW TO PERHAPS MAINTAIN MVFR CEILINGS
ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA SPCLY WEST OF THE BLUE RIDGE INTO MONDAY
OR EVEN MONDAY NIGHT WITH STILL A FEW SHOWERS POSSIBLE.

ARRIVAL OF SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE FOLLOWING THIS SYSTEM SHOULD
BRING VFR CONDITIONS BACK ON TUESDAY EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE.
CLOUDS MAY LINGER IN THE MOUNTAINS UNTIL TUESDAY NIGHT WITH
CLEARING SKIES BY WEDNESDAY WHEN INCREASED DRYING/SUBSIDENCE TAKES
SHAPE. EXPECT VFR AT ALL SITES WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY UNDER
HIGH PRESSURE.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR 1-3 INCHES OF RAINFALL ACROSS THE CWA. WITH
THIS AMOUNT OF RAIN IN THE 24 TO 48 HOUR TIME FRAME...SOME MINOR
FLOODING IS POSSIBLE ALONG PORTIONS OF THE JAMES...ROANOKE AND DAN
RIVERS. THIS FAR OUT...CONFIDENCE REMAINS MARGINAL AS TO THE
EXACT LOCATION OF THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL...AS TO WHICH BASIN COULD
GET THE MOST. HOWEVER...SIGNIFICANT RISES ARE EXPECTED BY EARLY
NEXT WEEK ALONG THE MAIN STEM RIVERS. AN AREAL FLOOD WATCH IS IN
EFFECT THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. A FLOOD WARNING HAS BEEN ISSUED
FOR MINOR FLOODING ALONG THE DAN RIVER AT SOUTH BOSTON.
