AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BALTIMORE MD/WASHINGTON DC
1024 PM EST THU FEB 17 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN OF THE SOUTHEAST COAST...WITH SOUTHWEST
WINDS LEADING TO SPRING-TIME WARMTH THROUGH FRIDAY. A COLD FRONT WILL
MOVE THROUGH THE REGION LATE FRIDAY...FOLLOWED BY A RETURN OF HIGH
PRESSURE THROUGH THE WEEKEND. A STORM SYSTEM WILL APPROACH EARLY
NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC THIS
EVENING...RESULTING IN A RETURN SOUTHERLY FLOW ACROSS THE MID
ATLANTIC. THIS WILL HELP TO FURTHER THE INCREASE IN MOISTURE
ACROSS THE REGION OVERNIGHT. WILL CERTAINLY HAVE MID-HIGH CLOUDS
MOVING THROUGH DUE TO WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT. AM NOT SURE IF LOW
LEVEL MOISTURE INCREASE WILL BE SUFFICIENT ENOUGH FOR STRATUS
DEVELOPMENT AS SOME GUIDANCE SUGGESTS. EITHER WAY THOUGH...PLENTY
OF CLOUDS ARE EXPECTED FOR THE OVERNIGHT AND TEMPERATURES WILL BE
MILDER THAN LAST NIGHT WITH LOWS POSSIBLY DROPPING TO JUST 50 IN
DOWNTOWN WASHINGTON AND BALTIMORE CITY AND INTO THE MID TO UPPER
40S ELSEWHERE.

HAVE ALSO ADJUSTED MAX T UP A DEG OR TWO FOR FRIDAY. CLOUDS WILL
START THE DAY BUT THERE SHOULD BE AFTERNOON BREAKS BEHIND A COLD
FRONT. DOWNSLOPING WIND AND SOME SUNSHINE SHOULD ALLOW
TEMPERATURES TO WARM AGAIN INTO THE 70S. MOS HAS BEEN
UNDERFORECASTING MAX T THE LAST COUPLE OF DEGREE AND EXPECT THIS
TO BE THE CASE AGAIN.

PREV FOR FRIDAY...

LOPRES WILL TRACK FROM CENTRAL ONTARIO TO QUEBEC DURING THE DAY
FRI. THE ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL MOVE INTO THE ERN SIDE OF THE
APPALACHIANS DURING THE MRNG BEFORE CROSSING THE HIGHLANDS DURING
THE MID-LATE AFTN. DESPITE SLIGHTLY WARMER AIR ALOFT TOMORROW THAN
TDA...CLOUD COVER ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONT WILL INTERFERE WITH
DAYTIME HEATING. THEREFORE TDA MAY WIND UP BEING THE WARMER OF THE
TWO DAYS IN MANY SPOTS...ESPECIALLY WEST OF I-95 AND NORTH OF DC.
FROM DC...SOUTH AND EAST WHERE THE THERMAL RIDGE WILL BE
SITUATED... MORE BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS WILL ALLOW TEMPS TO BE AS IF
NOT A FEW DEGREES WARMER THAN TDA. COASTAL LOCATIONS ALONG THE WRN
SHORE AND TIDAL POTOMAC WILL BE MUCH WARMER THAN TDA AS SW WINDS
PREVENT ONSHORE FLOW OF COLD MARINE AIR. HIGHS AS WARM AS MID 70S
ARE EXPECTED ACROSS CENTRAL VA AND SRN MD.

MOST OF THE SYSTEM/S FORCING WILL BE LOCATED CLOSER TO THE LOW AND
WELL NORTH OF THE AREA. THEREFORE ANY MOISTURE ASSOCIATED WITH THE
COLD FRONT WILL LIKELY STRUGGLE TO MAKE IT EAST OF THE ALLEGHENY
FRONT. ANY PRECIP THAT FALLS OVER THE POTOMAC HIGHLANDS WILL BE
LIGHT. THE BEST CHANCE FOR PRECIP IN THIS AREA WILL BE IN THE
AFTN...WHEN STEEPENING LAPSE RATES COINCIDE WITH THE FROPA.

VEERING WINDS WILL INCREASE DURING THE AFTN AS THE SFC TROUGH
APPROACHES. GUSTS BETWEEN 20 AND 30 MPH WILL BE POSSIBLE DURING THE
SECOND HALF OF THE AFTN.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
CWFA WL BE W/IN CAA REGIME BY FRI NGT. CERTAINLY WE WONT BE DCPLG...

CLDS TO LINGER. BUT CONSIDERING THE WARM AFTN AND COMPRESSIONAL
WARMING FM WINDS...WENT ON THE WARM SIDE FOR MIN-T.

SIMLR CONSIDERATIONS FOR SAT...BUT A BIT WINDIER. MEAN MIXED LYR
FLOW SUGGESTS GUSTS ARND 35 KT. W/ UPR JET IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD...
THERE MAY BE SOME CI INTERRUPTING A SUNNY SKY. WENT A LTL CLSR TO

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
PCPN CHCS IMPV SUN NGT-MON AS LOPRES TRACKS N OF CWFA. GIVEN THIS
TRACK...WHICH HAS GNRL NAM/GFS CONSENSUS...ANY PSBL PCPN DURING THIS
PD WL BE RA.

CDFNT FM THAT LOW APPRCHS CWFA AND THEN STALLS...W/ AN ADDTL AREA OF
LOPRES TO TRACK EWD ALONG IT. GFS SENDS THE 2ND LOW TO THE S...ECMWF
KEEPS IT TO THE N. THAT/LL BE THE DIFF BTWN RA/SN MON NGT...AND ITS
IN A TIME RANGE WHERE DETAILS ARE DFCLT TO VERIFY. GFS HAS BEEN MORE
STBL THIS WINTER...SO GRIDS LEAN THAT WAY. THERE/S MORE THAN AVG
UNCERTAINTY IN THIS FCST PD...AND PLENTY OF ROOM FOR THE FCST TO CHG.

ONCE THE LOW AND ITS PCPN RISK ARE GONE...LRG HIPRES SETTLES IN FOR
THE REST OF THE WK. DRY WX AND TEMPS NEAR OR SLGTLY BLO NRML THRU
THE PD.

&&

.AVIATION /03Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
GFS MOS/LAMP GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO SUGGEST IFR/LIFR FLIGHT
RESTRICTIONS /MAINLY FROM CIGS/ LATE TONIGHT INTO EARLY FRIDAY.
NAM MOS/SREFS DO NOT OFFER SUPPORT TO THIS. WILL CERTAINLY CONTEND
WITH LOW LEVEL SOUTH WIND INCREASING MOISTURE...BUT HAVE LOW
CONFIDENCE AS TO WHETHER IT WILL BE SUFFICIENT SOON ENOUGH FOR STRATUS
TO DEVELOP. NOTICE THAT STRATUS IS JUST STARTING TO ADVECT ALONG
THE SOUTH CAROLINA COAST THIS EVENING. HRRR BRINGS IT NEAR THE
NC/VA BORDER AROUND 08Z...AND NEVER REALLY BRINGS IT THIS FAR
NORTH EXCEPT PERHAPS RIGHT ALONG THE BAY /IMPLYING THAT MTN/BWI
MAY BE MOST SUSCEPTIBLE TOWARD 11Z OR 12Z/. BUT GIVEN LOW
CONFIDENCE IN THIS OCCURRING HAVE LEANED TOWARD THE VFR/MVFR
SOLUTION AT THIS TIME.

SW WINDS WILL INCREASE DURING THE LATE MRNG AND AFTN FRI AS A
COLD FRONT APPROACHES. WINDS WILL SHIFT OUT OF THE WEST TOWARD
SUNSET AS THE FRONT MOVES THRU. GUSTS BETWEEN 20-25 KT WILL BE
POSSIBLE DURING THE AFTN.

VFR CONDS XPCTD THRU SUN. WNDS WL BE THE BIGGEST FACTOR ON SAT...W/
30-40 KT PSBL ON NW FLOW.

DETERIOTATING CONDS XPCTD SUN NGT...MOST LKLY AFTR THE EVE PUSH--
MVFR-OCNL IFR MON IN RA. PSBL PTYPE ISSUES MON NGT IN 2ND WV OF
PCPN. LOW CONFIDENCE ON TYPE...BUT HIGH CONFIDENCE IN FLGT
RESTRICTIONS INTO TUE.

&&

.MARINE...
JUST ISSUED SCA FOR OVERNIGHT UP THE MAIN CHANNEL OF THE BAY.
NOCTURNAL SOUTHERLY WINDS ARE DOING THEIR THING...WITH TPLM2
GUSTING TO 19 KNOTS LAST HOUR. PREV...

WILL HAVE TO WATCH THE NOCTURNAL SOUTHERLY WIND TONIGHT AS IT MAY
TRY TO COME CLOSE TO SCA CRITERIA IN THE MAIN CHANNEL OF THE BAY.
BUT GIVEN LOW CONFIDENCE OF MARGINAL SCA GUSTS...HAVE NOT RAISED
SCA ATTM FOR TONIGHT. SCA REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR FRIDAY. DESPITE
COLD WATER TEMPS THAT ARE UNFAVORABLE FOR EFFICIENT MIXING OF
WINDS ALOFT...SOLAR HEATING IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER WILL BE ENOUGH
TO MIX SCA WIND GUSTS DOWN TO THE SFC.

NW FLOW WL CONT FRI NGT-SAT. SYNOPTIC PTTN WUD SUGGEST THAT WNDS FM
A CPL THSND FT UP SHUD BE ABLE TO MIX TO THE SFC...BUT MDL SNDGS ALL
SUGGESTING THAT A LLVL INVSN WL SET UP AFDK. GIVEN WATER TEMPS...
THAT DOES ADD SOME UNCERTAINTY. HV OPTED FOR LOW END SCA FRI NGT FOR
MD BAY/LWR PTMC. THE WNDS INCR TWD DAWN...MAKING FOR BETTER CONDS...
AND THAT TRENDS WL CONT THRU THE DAY SAT. MEAN LYR MIXING WUD
SUGGEST THAT THERE/S A LOW END GLW THREAT DURING SAT. HV ADDED THAT
RISK INTO CWFA AND HWO. AT LEAST SCA MAY LINGER INTO SAT NGT FOR
PARTS OF THE WATERS.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
FUEL MOISTURE REMAINS LOW DUE TO THE RECENT DRY WEATHER. DRY
CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST THROUGH SATURDAY. WEST-SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL
GUST AROUND 20 MPH FRIDAY AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT.
HOWEVER...THERE WILL BE AN INCREASE IN ATMOSPHERIC MOISTURE.
MINIMUM RELATIVE HUMIDITIES ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN ABOVE 40 PERCENT
ACROSS MOST LOCATIONS.

DESPITE COOLER CONDITIONS BEHIND THE FRONT SATURDAY...IT WILL TURN
OUT WINDY AND QUITE DRY. MINIMUM RELATIVE HUMIDITIES WILL BE WELL
BELOW 30 PERCENT ACROSS MOST LOCATIONS. NORTHWEST WINDS WILL BE
SUSTAINED AROUND 20 TO 25 MPH ALONG WITH FREQUENT GUSTS AROUND 30 TO
40 MPH. THE GUSTY WINDS ALONG WITH LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY WILL
COMBINE WITH LOW FUEL MOISTURE TO ENHANCE THE THREAT FOR WILDFIRES.
A FIRE WEATHER WATCH WILL LIKELY BE WARRANTED FOR MOST OF THE AREA.
WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR OVER THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS.
