AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WAKEFIELD VA
1001 PM EDT MON APR 4 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE REGION FROM THE WEST TONIGHT...AND
WILL GRADUALLY PUSH THROUGH THE AREA TUESDAY MORNING AND EARLY
AFTERNOON. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS BACK INTO THE MID ATLANTIC STATES
TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY...AND SLIDES OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST
ON THURSDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM TUESDAY MORNING/...
HAVE MADE MINIMAL CHANGES IN THE NEAR TERM AS FCST PLAYING OUT
PRETTY MUCH AS EXPECTED...10 PM TEMPS STILL MAINLY IN THE 70S FOR
MOST AREAS AWAY FROM THE COAST. WINDS REMAIN STRONG FROM THE S TO
SW IN ADVANCE OF APPROACHING COLD FRONT AS DEEP LAYERED S-SW FLOW
PERSISTS.

ONE THING TO NOTE IN RADAR TRENDS...BEGINNING TO SEE LIGHTNING
COVERAGE DIMINISH OVER NRN AREAS (I.E. KY/WV) WHILE A MORE ORGANIZED
LINE OF CONVECTION IS NOW CONFINED TO LA/MS/AL. COULD WE BE
SEEING THE START OF A SPLIT PATTERN IN THE PRECIP? TYPICALLY THIS
SETUP IS NOT FAVORABLE FOR A SIGNIFICANT SVR OUTBREAK AND/OR
WIDESPREAD HVY RAIN INTO AKQ CWA. DID NOT CHANGE POPS MUCH AS A
PERIOD OF CAT POPS TO 90% STILL LOOKS LIKELY INTO THE PIEDMNT
PRIOR TO 12Z...AND 12-15Z FARTHER EAST. DID SCALE BACK ON TSTM
COVERAGE AND QPF AMTS THOUGH. PRECIP LIKELY WILL NOT MAKE IT INTO
THE CWA UNTIL AT LEAST A FEW HRS AFTER MIDNIGHT...AND IN MOST
AREAS PROBABLY NOT UNTIL AFTER 5 AM. ISO SVR THREAT OVERNIGHT/THROUGH
12Z WILL GNLY BE CONFINED TO AREAS MAINLY ALONG AND TO THE W OF
I-95 AS THIS CONTINUES TO SHOW ANA-FRONTAL CHARACTERISTICS (PRECIP
ALONG AND BEHIND THE BNDRY). MOST LIKELY ISSUE WOULD BE STRAIGHT
LINE WINDS AS DIRECTIONAL SHEAR IS RATHER UNIFORM...SSW.

TEMPS WILL REMAIN ON THE MILD SIDE...AND WILL LIKELY STILL BE IN
THE UPR 60S OR THE 70S INTO THE ERLY AM HRS IN THE DRY AIR AND
SLY FLOW. MINS WILL LIKELY SPIKE DOWN SEVERAL DEGREES W/ ONSET OF
PRECIP TWDS DAYBREAK....GNLY IN LWR-MID 60S FROM I-95 E...MID- UPR
50S WELL W OF I-95 AND LOCALLY ON THE COAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY/...
THE BULK OF THE PRECIP IS EXPECTED ALONG/BEHIND THE FRONTAL
PASSAGE WHICH IS EXPECTED DURING TUESDAY MORNING. THE POTENTIAL
EXISTS FOR A NARROW BAND OF STRONG (SEVERE?) TSTORMS WITH THE
FRONTAL PASSAGE EARLY TUES MORNING AS IT CROSSES W-E. A FEW HOUR
PERIOD OF RAIN IS POSSIBLE POST FRONTAL...BEFORE DRYING/CLEARING
OUT TUES AFTERNOON/EVENING WITH SIGNIFICANT LOWERING OF POPS.
OVERALL QPF WILL BE IN THE 0.25-0.50" RANGE WITH LOCALLY HIGHER
AMOUNTS POSSIBLE IN THUNDERSTORMS. TIMING OF PRECIP IS NOT IDEAL
FOR SVR THREAT...BUT GIVEN AMOUNT OF LOW-LEVEL SPEED SHEAR ANY
THUNDERSTORM WILL BE CAPABLE OF DAMAGING WIND GUSTS TUES MORNING.
HIGH TEMPS TUES IN THE 60S...EXCEPT UPPER 50S PARTS OF THE
EASTERN PIEDMONT BEHIND THE FRONT.

DRY/COOL WX TUES NIGHT...THEN PARTLY TO MOSTLY SUNNY WEDNESDAY AS
HIGH PRESSURE TRAVERSES THE AREA. LOWS TUES NIGHT IN THE 30S TO
LOW 40S. HIGHS WEDNESDAY FROM THE UPR 50S EASTERN SHORE TO THE UPR
60S WEST. HIGH PRESSURE WILL PARK ITSELF OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST
WED NIGHT AND THURS. RETURN FLOW FROM THE SOUTH WILL ALLOW FOR A
MILD AFTERNOON ON THURS WITH HIGHS REACHING THE UPR 60S EASTERN
SHORE/IMMEDIATE COAST TO THE MID 70S INTERIOR LOCATIONS.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
GOING CLSR TO THE 12Z ECMWF FOR THE EXTENDED PERIOD. WEAK FRNTL
BDNRY (BACKDOOR/WRM FRNT) WILL LAY ACRS THE CWA THU NGT INTO ERLY
SUN. WEAK SHRTWVS/ASSOC AREAS OF MOIST WILL MOVE THRU IN WNW FLO
ALOFT...AND WILL RESULT IN SLGT OR SML CHCS FOR SHRAS ACRS THE
REGION. THAT BNDRY WILL LIFT N OF THE ENTIRE AREA SUN AFTN WITH
WRMER SW FLO EXPECTED ALL LOCATIONS. MAINLY DRY WX SUN AFTN THRU
MON...BEFORE NEXT COLD FRNT BRINGS SLGT CHC OF SHRAS MON NGT.

MAX TEMPS ON FRI RANGING FM NEAR 60 OVR THE LWR MD/VA ERN SHR...TO
THE MID 70S SW. HIGHS ON SAT RANGING FM THE LWR 60S OVR LWR MD ERN
SHR...TO NEAR 80 SW. MAX TEMPS ON SUN RANGING THRU THE 70S TO NEAR
80...AND IN THE MID 70S TO LWR 80S ON MON.

&&

.AVIATION /02Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
VFR CNDTNS WILL CONTINUE THIS EVENG...WITH MAINLY JUST THIN CIRRUS
SPREADING IN FM THE WSW. SW WNDS WILL REMAIN GUSTY INTO ERLY THIS
EVENG WITH GUSTS UP TO 35 KT MANY AREAS.

GUSTY SW WNDS CONTINUE TONITE (15-30 KTS) AHEAD OF APPRCHG COLD
FRNT. STILL EXPECT PCPN WITH THIS BNDRY TO BE AFTR 07Z. SHUD BE A
BAND OF SHWRS WITH EMBEDDED TSTMS TO CROSS THE AREA LATE TONITE
(08-12Z KRIC...11-15Z CSTL TAF SITES). MVFR CIGS LIKELY WITH LOCAL
IFR CNDTNS IN HEAVIEST SHWRS. CONVECTIVE GUSTS AOA 40 KTS ALSO
PSBL WITH THIS BAND OF PCPN...AS IT MOVES ACRS THE RGN. THEN...
ANA-FRNTL SHWRS EXPCTD FOR A FEW HRS POST FROPA INTO ERLY TUE
