AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
334 PM EST SAT JAN 23 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE OVER NEW ENGLAND WILL SLIDE EAST OFF THE COAST
THROUGH SUNDAY. MEANWHILE...LOW PRESSURE OVER THE CENTRAL U.S.
WILL TRACK INTO OUR REGION SUNDAY. THIS STRONG SYSTEM IS GOING TO
BRING HEAVY RAINS AND POSSIBLE FLOODING.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
BIG ISSUES THIS PERIOD ARE THE FLOODING POTENTIAL AND HIGH WIND
THREAT OVER THE HIGHER MTNS OF FAR SW VA.

GOING TO FOLLOW A BLEND OF THE 00Z ECMWF/12Z GFS AND HPC ON THE
SYNOPTIC SCALE...LEANING TOWARD HPC FOR QPF. LOOKING THIS EVENING
AT LOW CLOUDS REMAIN BANKED UP ALONG THE BLUE RIDGE FROM THE NC
MTNS INTO PORTIONS OF THE HIGHLANDS/MTNS OF VA/SE WV. THE BUFKIT
SOUNDINGS FROM THE GFS DEPICT THIS VERY WELL...AND LOOKS LIKE
PATCHY DRIZZLE CAN BE EXPECTED THIS EVENING DOWN OVER THE MTNS OF
NC INTO FAR SW VA...AS SE FLOW INCREASES. AS THE NIGHT WEARS
ON...WE SEE INCREASE IN LOW LVL WINDS AND BETTER MOISTURE
TRANSPORT INTO THE SRN APPALACHIANS. PREVIOUS FORECAST HAD THIS
WELL IN HAND WITH LIGHT RAIN PUSHING INTO THE NC MTNS BY
MIDNIGHT...THEN SPREADING QUICKLY NORTHWARD ALONG AND EITHER SIDE
OF THE BLUE RIDGE THRU 12Z SUNDAY. BY 12Z SUNDAY WE SEE THE UPPER
FLOW BECOME MORE DIFLUENT WITH THE SHORTWAVE PIVOTING ACROSS THE
MID MISS AND LOWER OHIO VALLEYS. MEANWHILE...THE 8H WINDS STAY IN
THE SSE DIRECTION AND SE BELOW THIS WHILE INCREASING IN THE RANGE
OF 50 KNOTS.

WITH THE MAIN BATCH OF RAIN MOVING INTO THE SRN APPS LATE
TONIGHT...AND MORESO DURING THE AFTERNOON SUNDAY...AS THE UPPER
FLOW REMAINS DIFLUENT WHILE IN THE LOW LVLS MOISTURE TRANSPORT IS
MAXIMIZED FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO. LOOKING AT 1 TO AS MUCH AS 3
INCHES OF RAIN DURING THIS TIME FRAME...FROM SUNDAY MORNING TIL
MONDAY EARLY MORNING...AND APPEARS THE WINDOW OF HEAVIEST RAINS
WILL BE SUN AFTN/EVENING. GROUND REMAINS SATURATED AND WITH
RAINFALL RATES POTENTIALLY OVER ONE HALF INCH AN HOUR OR
MORE...WILL SEE FLASH FLOODING ISSUES IN THE MTNS ESPECIALLY.
DECIDED TO WORD IT AS FLASH FLOODING FOR SIMPLICITY SAKE..BUT
LOOKING AT MAINSTEM RIVER FLOODING ISSUES SUN NIGHT INTO EARLY WEEK.

MAY HEAR SOME RUMBLES OF THUNDER SUNDAY EVENING AS THE SFC LOW
MOVES ACROSS WITH SOME ELEVATED INSTABILITY PER ECWMF...MAINLY
OVER THE SERN CWA.

THE OTHER MAIN ISSUE WILL BE THE HIGH WINDS...ALTHOUGH ONLY A FEW
PLACES IN TAZEWELL COUNTY WILL JUMP INTO THE 45 TO 50 KNOT
GUSTS...THINK WITH A WET GROUND...TREES COULD FALL EASIER THIS
TIME...AND HAVE SMYTH/TAZEWELL IN THE HIGH WIND WARNING WITH A
BUFFER OF WIND ADVISORY FOR THE NC MTNS AND SE WV MTNS...INCLUDING
BLAND AND GRAYSON VA. AS THE WINDS VEER TO THE SOUTH BY MIDDAY
SUNDAY...WITH WINDS SHOULD SUBSIDE.

POTENTIAL OTHER ISSUE...FREEZING RAIN. HAVE THE TEMPS DROPPING TO
AROUND FREEZING LATE TONIGHT IN THE BLUE RIDGE NORTH OF PEAKS OF
OTTER AND ACROSS THE HIGHLANDS OF BATH/NE GREENBRIER COUNTY.
ALLOWING FOR A 1-3 HOUR PERIOD OF FREEZING RAIN WITH A LIGHT ICE
ACCRETION POSSIBLE. BEING THAT IT IS ONLY FOR A FEW
LOCATIONS...AND LIMITIED TIME...WILL NOT HOIST A WINTER WX ADVISORY.

TEMPS TONIGHT WILL DROP OFF THIS EVENING AS THE SKIES ARE CLEARING
IN THE EAST...WITH A SLOWER DROP IN THE MTNS WHERE CLOUDS HANG AROUND.

WITH WEDGE IN PLACE TOMORROW AND CLOUDS/RAIN COMING IN FULL
FORCE...DO NOT SEE AS MUCH AS A RISE AS THE MAV/MET GUIDANCE...SO
WENT COOLER AT MOST LOCATIONS.

BY SUNDAY NIGHT...THE FRONT WILL WORK ACROSS THE REGION WITH WINDS
SHIFTING AROUND TO THE SW...AND TEMPS WILL STAY MILD AS THE COLDER
AIR MAY BE DELAYED UNTIL MONDAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
A COLD FRONT WILL BE PASSING TO THE EAST WITH THE UPPER LOW CROSSING
OVER THE GREAT LAKES MONDAY. THE MODELS OF CHOICE CONTINUE TO BE THE
NAM AND ECMWF. AS THE MODELS CONTINUE TO SLOW DOWN THE FRONTAL
PASSAGE...RAISED POPS EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE TO CHANCE POPS MONDAY
MORNING AND TAPERING OFF IN THE AFTERNOON. LINGERING MOISTURE
WRAPPING AROUND THE BACK SIDE OF THE LOW WILL IMPACT THE WESTERN
UPSLOPE REGIONS OF SOUTHEAST WEST VIRGINIA SOUTH INTO SOUTHWESTERN
VIRGINIA THROUGH MID WEEK. A WEST TO NORTHWEST WIND IN THE WAKE OF
THE FRONT WILL ENHANCE THE UPSLOPE COMPONENT. BUFKIT SOUNDINGS
INDICATE LIMITED MOISTURE...THUS THINK THE PRECIPITATION WILL BE
FAIRLY LIGHT. HOWEVER...HPC GUIDANCE FOR DAY 3 SUGGESTS AT LEAST AN
INCH OF QPF IN THE EXTREME WESTERN PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA.

COLD AIR BEGINS ADVECTING IN BEHIND THE FRONT FROM THE WEST
NORTHWEST MONDAY. 850H TEMPERATURES ARE PROGGED TO FALL TO A RANGE
FROM -11 DEGREE C IN THE WEST TO -8 DEGREE C IN THE EAST.
TEMPERATURES WILL BE JUST ABOVE SEASONAL NORMS MONDAY AND MONDAY
NIGHT...THEN DROP NEAR TO BELOW NORMAL FOR TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY
NIGHT.

WITH TEMPERATURES FALLING TO FREEZING OR BELOW ALONG AND WEST OF THE
BLUE RIDGE MOUNTAINS...EXPECT SHOWERS TO CHANGE OVER TO LIGHT SNOW
SHOWERS MONDAY NIGHT WITH A MIX OF RAIN AND SNOW TUESDAY AFTERNOON.
LINGERING SNOW SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE NIGHT TUESDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL REMAIN ALONG THE EAST COAST THROUGH THE
END OF THE MONTH. A COLD FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO MARCH SOUTHEAST
INTO THE ATLANTIC OCEAN. BOTH THE GFS/ECMWF INDICATED THAT ANY
UPSLOPE SNOW SHOWERS TAPER OFF EARLY WEDNESDAY AS MOISTURE LIFTS TO
THE NORTH AND HIGH PRESSURE BUILD NORTHEAST OUT OF TENNESSEE. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL CONTROL OUR WEATHER WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY.
MEDIUM RANGE MODEL SOLUTION START TO DIVERGE FOR THE END OF THE WEEK
WITH TIMING OF SOUTHERN STREAM SYSTEM. MODEL TRENDS SEEM TO BE
HEDGING TOWARD A SLOWER AND STRONGER SOUTHERN SYSTEM LATER THIS WEEK
WHICH IS SIMILAR TO THE ECMWF/CANADIAN. DEPENDING ON THE EXACT TRACK
OF THE LOW CENTER FROM THE GULF...ANOTHER WINTER STORM MAY BE
POSSIBLE FOR THE WEEKEND. THERE IS PLENTY OF TIME TO WORK OUT ALL
THE DETAILS AS THE STORM APPROACH.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
SEE EQUIPMENT SECTION ABOUT CEILOMETER MALFUNCTIONS AT LYH AND BLF.

CIGS REMAIN IN THE IFR RANGE OVER THE MTNS FROM NC INTO SE
WV...BUT THE EROSION IS STILL EXPECTED TO OCCUR AT LWB BY 21Z.
THE WEDGE WILL STRENGTHEN TONIGHT AS LOW PRESSURE WORKS INTO THE
MID MISS VALLEY. SE FLOW ALOFT WILL INCREASE BRINGING LIGHT RAIN
AND DRIZZLE TO ROA/LYH/DAN AREA BY DAWN...WITH LOWER CIGS.
STEADIER SHOWERS WILL MOVE INTO ROA/LYH/DAN AFTER 14Z...AND
LOOKING AT WEDGE...THINK IFR/LIFR POSSIBLE THROUGH THE
PERIOD...AND EVEN THRU SUN EVENING B4 THE COLD FRONT WORKS THROUGH.

BLF/LWB WILL ALSO SEE STEADIER RAINS AFTER 12Z AND LOWER
CIGS...BUT WILL SEE SOME POTENTIAL FOR IMPROVEMENT IN THE
AFTERNOON AT BLF DUE TO SE DOWNSLOPE AFFECT.

THE WEDGE IN THE LOW LVLS COMBINED WITH A STRONG JET ABOVE IN
INVERSION WILL CREATE LOW LVL WIND SHEAR ISSUES AT ALL TAF SITES TONIGHT-SUN.

MVFR TO OCCASIONAL IFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED ALONG AND WEST OF
THE BLUE RIDGE...WITH UPSLOPE SNOW SHOWERS POSSIBLE BY LATER
MONDAY INTO TUESDAY AT KLWB AND KBLF.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
1 TO AS MUCH AS 3 INCHES OF RAIN...SOME IN A PERIOD OF LESS THAN
12 HOURS WILL CREATE FLASH FLOOD POTENTIAL OVER MUCH OF THE AREA
SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY NIGHT. THERE WILL ALSO BE A GOOD POTENTIAL FOR
MAIN STEM RIVER FLOODING BY SUNDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK AS
RUNOFF SWELLS THE RIVERS. SOME RIVERS COULD SEE MODERATE FLOODING
IF RAINFALL AMOUNTS EXCEED 2 INCHES IN THE BASIN.

ALSO...THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR THE BUCK DAM AREA AND POINTS
DOWNSTREAM WILL REMAIN AS IS THROUGH 600 PM MONDAY
ICE BUILDUP AT THE BUCK DAM ON THE NEW RIVER IN CARROLL COUNTY
HAS BROKEN OUT SEVERAL OF THE WOODEN FLASH BOARDS THAT ARE USED TO
CONTROL EMERGENCY RELEASES OF WATER FROM THE DAM. UNTIL THESE
FLASH BOARDS ARE REPLACED...THERE IS NO WAY TO FULLY REGULATE THE
AMOUNT OF INFLOW AND OUTFLOW FROM THE DAM.

RESIDUAL ICE PUSHING UP AGAINST REMAINING FLASH BOARDS MAY RESULT
IN ADDITIONAL FLASH BOARD FAILURES...WHICH WOULD FURTHER INCREASE
DISCHARGE DOWNSTREAM FROM THE DAM...CAUSING SIGNIFICANT ADDITIONAL
RISES ALONG THE NEW RIVER DOWNSTREAM FROM THE DAM TO CLAYTOR LAKE.

&&

.EQUIPMENT...
MALFUNCTION OF THE NEW CEILOMETERS AT ROA...LYH...AND BLF HAS BEEN
REPORTED BY NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE EASTERN REGION. THE CEILING
HEIGHT AT ROA IS BEING CORRECTED BY THE ON SITE OBSERVER. THE
CEILING AT BLF WILL NOT BE REPORTED OVERNIGHT. THE CEILING AT LYH
MAY NOT BE REPRESENTATIVE OVERNIGHT.

ALSO...NOT GETTING ANY DATA AT THE DANVILLE RIVER GAGE SINCE EARLY
FRIDAY MORNING. USGS IS AWARE OF THIS...BUT AT THE MOMENT PLANS
ARE NOT FOR A FIX TO IT UNTIL MONDAY OR TUESDAY.
