AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
126 PM EDT TUE JUN 7 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A MOISTURE STARVED WARM FRONT PUSHES NORTHEAST TODAY. HOT SUMMER
LIKE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE IN CHARGE WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY
NIGHT. COOL FRONT BRINGS STORM CHANCES THURSDAY INTO SATURDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
MCS HAS ARRIVED IN CWA WITH GUSTY WINDS AND BRIEF HEAVY RAINS.
EXPECT SYSTEM TO DEFLECT EAST WITH TIME AS H500 RIDGE CONTINUES TO
BUILD IN...SO CONCENTRATED HIGHEST POPS ACROSS THE NORTH.  SYSTEM
SHOULD MOVE OFF/DISSIPATE BY EARLY EVENING...WITH A QUIET OVERNIGHT
FORESEEN.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
HIGH PRESSURE...AT THE SURFACE AND ALOFT...SHOULD PREVAIL ACROSS THE
REGION WEDNESDAY. SOME OF THE MODELS CONTINUE TO GENERATE AFTERNOON
CONVECTION OVER THE MOUNTAINS WEDNESDAY...BUT MODEL SOUNDINGS HAVE
LOTS OF DRY AIR ALOFT...WHICH SHOULD PRECLUDE THE DEVELOPMENT OF ANY
CONVECTION.  BECAUSE OF THIS...BUMPED POPS UP...BUT WILL STILL LEAVE
REGION DRY FOR NOW.

MODELS ALSO CONTINUE TO INDICATE UPPER HIGH WILL BE SUPPRESSED TO
THE SOUTH...WHICH WILL ALLOW A COLD FRONT TO APPROACH FROM THE
NORTHWEST.  LATEST GUIDANCE SUGGESTS FRONT WILL BE LOCATED EITHER
JUST TO OUR NORTH...OR POSSIBLY INTO OUR NORTHERN COUNTIES LATE
THURSDAY NIGHT.

THE COMBINATION OF THE FRONT...AND ASSORTED MID-LEVEL SHORTWAVES
SHOULD RESULT IN INCREASING CHANCES OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
THURSDAY...WITH THE CHANCES CONTINUING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT.

WITH HIGH PRESSURE IN CHARGE ON WEDNESDAY...FEEL TEMPERATURES WILL
BE HOT.  PREVIOUS FORECAST FOR HIGHS IS QUITE CLOSE TO THE MET
NUMBERS....AND ONLY A DEGREE OR TWO BELOW THE WARMER MAV NUMBERS.
SO HAVE GENERALLY LEFT FORECAST ALONE...WITH SOME MINOR TWEAKS.

CLOUDS AND PRECIPITATION CHANCES SHOULD RESULT IN LOWER TEMPS ON
THURSDAY...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE NORTH.  PREVIOUS FORECAST REFLECTS
THE LATEST GUIDANCE AND WAS GENERALLY LEFT ALONE.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
THE SEE SAW BATTLE CONTINUES...WITH THE UPPER LEVEL HIGH PRESSURE
GETTING SUPPRESSED SOUTHWARD AGAIN. THIS ALLOWS A COOL FRONT
TO DROP SOUTH FROM THE GREAT LAKES THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT.
ONLY MINOR TIMING DIFFERENCES AMONG THE MODELS WITH COOL FRONT
SAGGING SOUTH INTO THE NORTHERN PART OF OUR AREA BY FRIDAY
MORNING...THEN STALLING FRIDAY INTO MUCH OF SATURDAY ACROSS THE
NORTHERN PORTION OF THE AREA. LOOKS TO BE A GOOD CHANCE FOR
OCCASIONAL SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FROM LATE THURSDAY THROUGH
SATURDAY...AS A SERIES OF UPPER DISTURBANCES RIDE ALONG THE NEARLY
STATIONARY WEST TO EAST BOUNDARY. THIS PLACES THE NORTHERN HALF OF
THE AREA IN THE BEST CHANCES FOR CONVECTION. LOOK FOR COOLER
CONDITIONS SIMPLY DUE TO ALL THE CLOUDS AND CONVECTION...ESPECIALLY
NORTH...WITH HIGHS MAINLY IN THE 80S.

THE FRONT THEN GETS PUSHED SOUTH BY SUNDAY AS THE NORTHERN STREAM
TAKES ANOTHER STEP SOUTHWARD. COOLER AND DRIER AIR IS EXPECTED FOR
SUNDAY AND MONDAY...WITH NEAR NORMAL TEMPERATURES.

&&

.AVIATION /17Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
WITH MCS AFFECTING MAINLY NORTHERN SECTIONS OF RLX CWA...EXPECT IFR
OR EVEN BRIEF LIFR VSBYS IN THE HEAVIEST STORMS...ESPECIALLY AT PKB
EARLY ON.  WIND GUSTS OF 25-35 KNOTS CAN ALSO BE EXPECTED WITH THE
CONVECTION. AREAS ALONG/SOUTH OF I-64 SHOULD ESCAPE MOST OF THIS
ACTIVITY.  EXPECT MCS TO BE DEFLECTED EAST WITH TIME AS H500 RIDGE
BUILDS IN...AND THINK MOST PRECIPITATION WILL WRAP UP BY 00Z.
OVERNIGHT...MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES.  SOME FOG EXPECTED TO FORM AFTER
MIDNIGHT...MAINLY IN AREAS THAT RECEIVE RAIN THIS AFTERNOON.
INCLUDED A PERIOD OF IFR AT PKB/CKB/EKN...WITH MVFR TO THE SOUTH.
VFR RETURNS EVERYWHERE BY 13Z.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 18Z WEDNESDAY...

FORECAST CONFIDENCE: MEDIUM.

ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: TIMING OF STORMS EARLY ON COULD VARY SLIGHTLY.
FOG DEPTH COULD VARY DEPENDING ON RAINFALL THIS AFTERNOON.
