AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WAKEFIELD VA
419 AM EDT TUE SEP 6 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL BECOME NEARLY STATIONARY ACROSS SOUTHEAST VIRGINIA
TODAY. THE FRONT WILL SLOWLY LIFT BACK TO THE NORTH LATER TONIGHT
AND WEDNESDAY...AS THE CENTER OF THE REMNANTS OF TROPICAL SYSTEM
LEE PUSHES INTO THE OHIO VALLEY. MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE TO STREAM
EAST ALONG THE FRONT AND INTO THE AREA THROUGH THURSDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
LATEST SFC ANALYSIS DEPICTS WELL DEFINED COLD FRONT/BOUNDARY
SITUATED WSW TO ENE ACRS THE FCST AREA FROM ABOUT LUNENBURG COUNTY
THROUGH WILLIAMSBURG AND INTO THE VA ERN SHORE. PRECIPITATION HAS
BEEN ANA-FRONTAL FOR THE MOST PART SO THERE HAS BEEN LITTLE IN THE
WAY OF PRECIPITATION OVER FAR SOUTHERN VA/NE NC THUS FAR.

FOR TODAY...COMPLEX SCENARIO AS THE FRONT IS PROGGED TO SLOW ITS
SOUTHWARD PROGRESSION AND STALL SOMEWHERE ACRS SRN/SE VA. EXACT
POSITION WHERE THIS OCCURS WILL HAVE BIG IMPLICATIONS AS TO
TEMPERATURES...AS WELL AS SEVERE WX POTENTIAL LATER TODAY.
FOLLOWING CURRENT OBS (TEMPS MAINLY IN THE LOWER TO MID 60S ALONG
AND NORTH OF THE BOUNDARY WITH MID 70S TO THE SOUTH) WOULD SUGGEST
GOING ON THE COOL SIDE OF GUIDANCE OVER MUCH OF CENTRAL VA ON
NW...AND CLOSE TO GUIDANCE ACRS THE FAR S/SE ZONES. WILL FCST
HIGHS ONLY IN THE UPPER 60S FOR FAR WRN REACHES OF FLUVANNA AND
LOUISA COUNTY...MID-UPPER 70S OVER MUCH OF CENTRAL VA/METRO
RICHMOND...WITH MID-UPPER 80S ACRS FAR SE VA AND MOST OF NE NC.

THE COOL NE FLOW/STABLE LOW LEVELS WILL LIMIT SEVERE POTENTIAL
TODAY OVER AT LEAST THE NRN/NW 1/2 OF THE CWA WHICH INCLUDES MOST
OF METRO RICHMOND...WHILE AREAS TO THE S/SE HAVE BEEN PLACED INTO
SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE BY SPC. LOW LEVEL SHEAR WILL BE RATHER
STRONG ALONG THE BNDRY AND WITH STRONG DIFFERENTIAL HEATING
OCCURRING WILL NEED TO MONITOR CLOSELY FOR ROTATING
STORMS/POSSIBLE TORNADOES. TRENDS IN THE FRONT POINT TO HIGHEST
PROBABILITIES FOR SEVERE WX BEING ACRS FAR SRN/SE VA AND NE
NC...INCLUDING HAMPTON ROADS. AGAIN THE EXACT LOCATION OF THE
FRONT WILL BE CRUCIAL...IF IT DIVES A BIT FARTHER TO THE
S...SEVERE WX MAY STAY CONFINED IN NC. FLOOD WATCH WILL REMAIN IN
EFFECT FOR THE PIEDMONT ZONES TODAY AND TONIGHT FOR LONG PERIOD
MODERATE RAINFALL...DO NOT EXPECT FLASH FLOODING TODAY IN THIS
AREA WITH COOLER TEMPS ALONG/NW OF THE STALLED FRONT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY/...
MODEL TRENDS HAVE NOT CHANGED ALL THAT MUCH FOR TONIGHT THROUGH
THU PERIOD. WILL CONTINUE WITH CATEGORICAL TO LIKELY PCPN CHANCES
TONIGHT OVER MUCH OF THE CWA...SCATTERED ACRS SE VA/NE NC. AS THE
BOUNDARY SLOWLY LIFTS BACK N COULD SEE PRECIP DIMINISH SOMEWHAT
AFTER MIDNIGHT. LOWS IN THE 60S NW TO THE LOWER-MID 70S SE.

ON WED...MAY SEE A LULL IN THE MORNING...ESPECIALLY S/E ZONES. BY
AFTN THOUGH...INSTABILITY SHOWERS/TSTMS SHOULD RETURN AND ALL
AREAS WILL AGAIN HAVE AT LEAST CHC POPS...LIKELY/60% OR HIGHER OVER
ALL EXCEPT THE COASTAL ZONES OF THE CWA. EXPECT SOME GRADIENT TO
HIGHS/WARMEST SE AND COOLEST NW BUT NEARLY AS MUCH AS TUE...HIGHS
MID-UPPER 80S SE TO UPPER 70S FAR NW. SIMILAR CONDITIONS THU AS
UPR LEVEL LOW IS SLOW TO FILL/MOVE N. HIGHS L-M80S. LOWS M60S NW
L70S SE.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
AN UPPER LOW WILL LINGER OVER THE OHIO VALLEY LATE IN THE WEEK INTO
THE WEEKEND. MEANWHILE...HURRICANE KATIA IS EXPECTED TO ROTATE
AROUND THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE AND REMAIN WELL OFF THE COAST BRINGING
ONLY COASTAL HAZARDS (HIGH SWELL AND INCREASED RIP CURRENT THREAT)
EARLY IN THE PERIOD...WHICH IS DISCUSSED FURTHER IN THE MARINE
SECTION. A MAINLY AFTERNOON/EVENING CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS IS EXPECTED DURING THE LATER PORTION OF THE
WEEK...BEFORE DIMINISHING FOR THE WEEKEND AS THE UPPER LOW SLOWLY
FILLS AND WEAKENS. HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE GENERALLY EXPECTED TO BE IN
THE MID 80S FRIDAY AND SATURDAY...AND THEN TRENDING A FEW DEGREES
COOLER LATER IN THE WEEKEND AS AN AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN
BEHIND A WEAK COLD FRONT.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
A COLD FRONT AND ITS ASSOCIATED PCPN ARE SLOWLY SAGGING SOUTHWARD
THROUGH CENTRAL VA EARLY THIS MORNING. WINDS HAVE TURNED NORTHERLY
AT KRIC AND SHOULD REMAIN LIGHT OUT OF THE NE THROUGH THE DAY.
SIMILAR WINDS ARE EXPECTED AT KSBY. THE FRONT IS NOT EXPECTED TO
MAKE IT ALL THE WAY TO SE VA/NE NC...SO WINDS THERE WILL REMAIN
SOUTHERLY THROUGH THE DAY. QUESTIONS REMAIN AS TO JUST HOW
WIDESPREAD/HEAVY THE PCPN FROM THE REMAINS OF TROPICAL SYSTEM LEE
WILL BE AT THE TAF SITES FOR TODAY. BEST CHCS AGAIN APPEAR TO BE AT
KSBY/KRIC WHERE MVFR TO BRIEF IFR CONDITIONS WILL BE LIKELY INTO
TONIGHT.

OUTLOOK...THERE WILL BE A CHC FOR PCPN THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK
AS TROPICAL MOISTURE AND A STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY REMAIN NEARBY.

&&

.MARINE...
A COLD FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO SAG SOUTHWARD THIS MORNING...REACHING
THE NORTHERN MID ATLANTIC COASTAL WATERS BY MIDDAY. THE FRONT THEN
STALLS OVER THE NORTHERN WATERS LATE TODAY BEFORE LIFTING BACK TO
THE NORTHWEST TONIGHT. THE RESULT WILL BE A LESSENING OF THE WINDS
OVER THE BAY AND THE FAR NORTHERN COASTAL WATERS TODAY. AS THE FRONT
LIFTS BACK TO THE NW LATE TODAY...SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL INCREASE
AGAIN TONIGHT BUT SHOULD NOT REACH SCA CRITERIA OVER THE BAY.

HURRICANE KATIA THEN PASSES WELL OFF THE COAST WEDNESDAY THROUGH
FRIDAY BRINGING THE POTENTIAL FOR SEAS AROUND 10 FT INSIDE 20 NM
(HIGHEST ON THURS). CONFIDENCE REMAINS HIGH THE SCA CONDITIONS WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH FRIDAY...SO NO CHANGES NECESSARY TO THE ONGOING SCA
FOR THE COASTAL WATERS. THE MOUTH OF THE BAY WILL LIKELY NEED AN SCA
BY TONIGHT OR WEDNESDAY.

AN ELEVATED RIP CURRENT RISK (MOST LIKELY HIGH) IS EXPECTED TO
CONTINUE OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS WITH ONSHORE FLOW THROUGH MID
WEEK AND A LARGER LONG PERIOD SWELL LATER IN THE WEEK.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
NO RIVERS IN ACTIVE FLOOD AS OF YET...BUT EXCESSIVE RAINS OVER THE
MTNS WILL LIKELY LEAD TO RIVER FLOODING LATER IN THE WEEK.

&&
