AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
1244 PM EST TUE NOV 16 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
DEEPENING LOW PRESSURE ACROSS THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY WILL
LIFT NORTHEAST PASSING JUST WEST OF THE APPALACHIANS TODAY AND
INTO THE GREAT LAKES OVERNIGHT. AN ASSOCIATED TRAILING COLD
FRONT FROM THIS LOW WILL CROSS THE REGION LATE TONIGHT AND EARLY
WEDNESDAY . ANOTHER WEAKER DISTURBANCE WITH MINIMAL MOISTURE WILL
MOVE IN FROM THE WEST ON THURSDAY...FOLLOWED BY A RETURN TO DRY
HIGH PRESSURE BY THE END OF THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
HAVE ISSUED A WIND ADVISORY FOR THE SOUTHWEST COUNTY WARNING AREA.
OBSERVATIONS IN THE AREA HAVE BEEN REPORTING SUSTAINED WINDS UP
AROUND 25 MPH AND PEAK WINDS AT BLF JUST CAME IN AT 39 KNOTS ON
THE 1052AM OBSERVATION. VAD WIND PROFILERS AND 12Z RAOBS FROM THE
AREA WERE SHOWING WIND SPEEDS JUST ABOVE THE SURFACE AT 40-45
KNOTS. SINCE THE LOW LEVEL JET IS EXPECTED TO INCREASE THIS
AFTERNOON HAVE ISSUED THE ADVISORY IN THE FAVORED AREAS THAT GET
GUSTY SOUTHEAST WINDS.

WATER VAPOR LOOP WAS SHOWING A SHORT WAVE MOVING NORTHEAST AT
ABOUT 50 KNOTS THAT WAS JUST REACHING THE SOUTHERN COUNTY WARNING
AREA. THE ASSOCIATED BAND OF PRECIPITATION THAT EXTENDS INTO
EASTERN GEORGIA SHOULD BE MOVING OUT OF THE EASTERN COUNTY WARNING
AREA BY 20Z/3PM.

THE SECOND SHORT WAVE OVER SOUTHWEST KENTUCKY. SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS MAY DEVELOP ALONG THE TAIL OF THIS SHORT WAVE.
CURRENT SPEED AND DIRECTION PUTS THIS FEATURE INTO THE EASTERN
COUNTY WARNING AREA AROUND 00Z/7PM. SO HAVE KEPT THE CHANCE OF
THUNDER IN THE SOUTHEAST COUNTY WARNING AREA FOR LATE THIS
AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING.

ONLY MINOR ADJUSTMENTS MADE TO MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES FOR THIS
AFTERNOON.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
SYSTEM WRAPS UP CROSSING THE OHIO VALLEY THIS EVENING WITH DRY SLOT
POKING IN EARLY TONIGHT JUST AHEAD OF THE TRAILING STRONG COLD FRONT
THAT WILL CROSS THE MOUNTAINS AFTER MIDNIGHT AND OUT EAST TOWARD
DAYBREAK. THIS SHOULD ALLOW FOR A QUICK DECREASE IN SHOWERS THIS
EVENING WITH ONLY THE FAR NW LIKELY SEEING ANY RAINFALL LINGER THRU
THE EARLY MORNING HOURS. SINCE TRENDS NOW FASTER...CUT MOST TO
CHANCE POPS BY MIDNIGHT AND EVEN LOWER THRU MORNING AS MOISTURE
ALOFT WANES.

HOWEVER WINDS THE BIGGER ISSUE WITH BOTH THE GFS/NAM SHOWING A
POST FRONTAL 85H 50+ KT W/NW JET ARRIVING LATE SUPPORTED BY A
PERIOD OF STRONG SUBSIDENCE AND PUNCH OF COOL ADVECTION. THINK
MUCH OF THE WEST COULD SEE A PERIOD OF ADVISORY SPEEDS VERY LATE
PENDING HOW MUCH MIXES DOWN PER RATHER HIGH INVERSION LEVELS.
SINCE A VERY LATE 2ND OR EARLY 3RD PERIOD EVENT AND AFTER
COORDINATION WITH OTHERS...WILL GIVE THE DAY SHIFT ANOTHER LOOK AND
ONLY INCLUDE IN THE HWO FOR NOW.

OTRW KEPT TEMPS CLOSER TO THE COLDER MAV MOS OVER THE WEST PER
FASTER SURGE OF COOL ADVECTION...WHILE STAYING WITH THE WARMER MET
EAST GIVEN MIXING AND SLOWER ARRIVAL OF COOLING ALOFT UNTIL ABOUT
DAYBREAK.

STRONG PRESSURE RISES AND 50+ 850 MB JET CONTINUE INTO WEDNESDAY
BEHIND THE COLD FRONT. MAY SEE SOME OF THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS IN THE
AREA APPROACH OR SURPASS WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA. WILL HOLD OFF ON
ANY ADVISORIES AT THIS TIME BUT CONTINUE TO MENTION THE POSSIBILITY
IN THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK. UPSLOPE RAIN SHOWERS OVER PARTS OF
SE WV WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE DAY...BUT HAVE A TREND OF DECREASING
COVERAGE. BEST COVERAGE WILL BE OVER THE WESTERN MOUNTAINS OF
GREENBRIER COUNTY WV. WEDNESDAY NIGHT HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE
REGION AND WE WILL SEE WINDS DECREASE RAPIDLY.

THURSDAY INTO THURSDAY NIGHT...THE LATEST GUIDANCE IS STILL
DEPICTING THE PASSAGE OF A SHORTWAVE TROUGH THE REGION. WHILE
COVERAGE OF ASSOCIATED PRECIPITATION AS IMPRESSIVE AS PREVIOUS
RUNS...WILL KEEP THE FORECAST AS IS AT THIS POINT SO AS NOT TO FLIP
FLOP FROM PREVIOUS FORECAST. WILL HAVE BEST COVERAGE IN THE
PREFERRED UPSLOPE REGIONS OF SOUTHEAST WEST VIRGINIA. WITH COLDER
AIR IN PLACE...THERE WILL BE A BETTER CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS
THURSDAY NIGHT IN THESE AREA. ON FRIDAY HIGH PRESSURE REGAINS
CONTROL OF OUR WEATHER PATTERN WITH AN END TO SE WV SHOWERS AND
LIMITED CLOUD COVER FOR THE ENTIRE AREA. THROUGH THE
PERIOD...TEMPERATURES WILL TREND COOLER.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE AND DRY AIR WILL KEEP THE LONG RANGE FORECAST DRY.
TEMPERATURES BEGIN TO MODERATE ABOVE NORMAL OVER THE WEEKEND AND
INTO MONDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE MOVES OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST AND
FLOW BECOMES SOUTHERLY.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
EXPECT RADIPLY CHANGING CONDITIONS THROUGH 18Z ON WEDNESDAY.
UPPER LOW OVER THE TENNESSEE VALLEY AND ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW
WILL CONTINUE TO DEEPEN THROUGH 12Z WEDNESDAY AS THE LOW TRACKS
TOWARD THE GREAT LAKES. A STRONG LOW LEVEL JET HAS ALREADY
DEVELOPED SO LLWS HAS BEEN INCLUDED IN THE TAFS.

AS THE LOW MOVES NORTHEAST A COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THROUGH THE
REGION AND WILL BE EAST OF KLYH AND KDAN BY 09Z TONIGHT. HIGH
PROBABILITY OF LIFR/IFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES IN THE TRAPPED
STABLE AIR AHEAD OF THE FRONT. ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS ARE ALSO
POSSIBLE DUE TO THE HIGHLY SHEARED ENVIRONMENT BUT NOT A HIGH
ENOUGH CHANCE IN INCLUDE IN THE KDAN TAF.

ONCE THE FRONT GOES BY...THE RAIN WILL END AND CEILINGS WILL
IMPROVE. IT MAY TAKE MOST OF THE DAY TO LIFT CEILINGS TO VFR OR
FOR CLOUDS TO BECOME SCATTERED IN THE WESTERN UPSLOPE
AREAS...INCLUDING AT KBLF AND KDAN. COLD AIR ADVECTION AND STRONG
PRESSURE RISES ALONG WITH A 50 TO 70 KNOT LOW LEVEL JET BEHIND THE
FRONT WILL RESULT IN STRONG GUSTY WINDS THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING.
WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO DIMINISH BY LATE IN THE DAT ON WEDNESDAY AS
THE PRESSURE GRADIENT WEAKENS.

DEEP LOW LEVEL NORTHWEST FLOW AND ANOTHER PASSING DISTURBANCE MAY
BRING MVFR CEILINGS BACK TO THE MOUNTAINS THURSDAY INTO THURSDAY
EVENING. OTRW UNIFORM VFR LATER THURSDAY NIGHT INTO THE WEEKEND
UNDER BUILDING HIGH PRESSURE.
