AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
809 PM EDT THU JUN 9 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
COLD FRONT KEEPS THE THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL GOING THROUGH SATURDAY.
COOLER AND DRIER WITH HIGH PRESSURE IN THE WAKE OF THE COLD FRONT
SUNDAY THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
LARGE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM CONVECTION ALL THE WAY UP NEAR CHICAGO
LAST NIGHT...SAILED SE ACROSS FCST AREA EARLIER TODAY...BEFORE
GETTING HUNG UP ACROSS SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE AREA.  THIS IS WHERE
CONVECTION THAT FIRED UP THIS PAST AFTERNOON WAS MOST
PERSISTENT...AND WAS ONGOING ALTHOUGH FADING AS 00Z APPROACHED.
THIS TREND WILL CONTINUE AS THE SUN SETS.

THE FLOOD WATCH FOR SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE AREA WILL LIKELY BE
ALLOWED TO EXPIRE AT 10 PM IF NOT DROPPED EVEN SOONER.  THE SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM GOES AT 8 PM.

ONCE THE CONVECTION IS GONE...EXPECT A QUIET THOUGH MUGGY NIGHT
WITH SOME HAZE...ALONG WITH VALLEY MIST.  IN AREAS WHERE IT
RAINED...MAINLY SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE CWA...DENSE VALLEY FOG IS
LIKELY TO DEVELOP.

DO NOT THINK BOUNDARY JUST N OF THE AREA THIS EVENING WILL HAVE MUCH
FARTHER SWD PUSH W OF THE APPALACHIANS...SO EXPECT MUCH OF THE AREA
TO BE S OF THE FRONT FRI.  CONVECTION WILL LIKELY FIRE AGAIN...THIS
TIME WITH THE HIGHER CHANCE FARTHER N...CLOSEST TO THE FRONT.
CONVECTION MAY GET GOING RELATIVELY EARLY FRI DEPENDING UPON TIMING
OF WEAK S/W TROFS ALONG THE SOUTHERN EDGE OF THE WESTERLIES...ABOUT
COINCIDENT WITH THE W-E BOUNDARY JUST TO THE N OF THE AREA.  SPC
FOCUSES SLIGHT RISK FOR FRI TO THE NW...DEEPER INTO THE
WESTERLIES...WHERE THE S/W ENERGY AND SHEAR ARE STRONGER.  THIS AREA
AFFECTS ONLY OUR INTERIOR SE OHIO COUNTIES.

ONLY CAVEAT IS IF COMPLEX FORMS UPSTREAM OVERNIGHT AND THEN SENDS AN
OUTFLOW BOUNDARY INTO THE AREA AGAIN FRI...WHICH WOULD AGAIN
RE-FOCUS CONVECTION NEAR IT.

HAVE LOWER TEMPERATURES FROM THE ONSET TONIGHT S WHERE THE RAIN HAS
COOLED THE AIR CONSIDERABLY.  ACTUALLY LOWS LOOK GOOD AND NO CHANGES
TO HIGHS FRI...WHICH WERE CLOSE TO THE MET...AND A LITTLE LOWER THAN
HIGHS TODAY...ON ACCOUNT OF AM LITTLE MORE CLOUD AND SLIGHTLY LOWER
H85 TEMPERATURES.  RAISED DEW POINTS OVERNIGHT INTO FRI WITH MOST OF
THE AREA STILL S OF THE FRONT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
MODELS INDICATE THE COLD STALLS BRIEFLY ACROSS THE CENTRAL PART OF
OUR AREA...THEN LIFT NORTH AS A WARM FRONT DURING FRIDAY NIGHT. THE
BEST CHANCE FOR CONVECTION FRIDAY NIGHT WILL BE ACROSS THE
NORTH...MORE ON A SCATTERED BASIS WITH LACK OF DIURNAL HEATING.

BY SATURDAY...THE REGION SHOULD BE FIRMLY LOCATED IN THE WARM
SECTOR. HOWEVER...A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE AREA FROM THE
NORTHWEST LATER SATURDAY...AS A VIGOROUS SHORT WAVE DROPS SOUTH
AND EAST. AS A RESULT...EXPECT THUNDERSTORM CHANCES TO BE GREATEST
ACROSS THE NORTHWEST COUNTIES SATURDAY AFTERNOON...WITH A CHANCE OF
THUNDERSTORMS JUST ABOUT ANYWHERE IN THE DAY TIME HEATING. BEST
THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL THEN PROGRESS EAST ACROSS THE AREA
SATURDAY NIGHT WITH THE FRONT.

MUCH BETTER MODEL AGREEMENT ON BEING QUITE PROGRESSIVE WITH THE COLD
FRONT...WITH THE FRONT EXITING OUR AREA BY SUNDAY MORNING.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
EXPECT SHOWERS TO END FROM WEST TO EAST SUNDAY MORNING...BUT HAVE
HELD ONTO POPS FOR MOUNTAIN SHOWERS SUNDAY AFTERNOON WITH A BIT OF
COLD ADVECTION UP SLOPE. MUCH COOLER AND DRIER AIR UNDER CANADIAN
HIGH PRESSURE IS EXPECTED FOR SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH EARLY NEXT
WEEK...NEAR NORMAL TEMPERATURES.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
CONVECTION IS DONE FOR THE EVENING.

HAVE ALL BUT BKW DEVELOPING MVFR FOG AFTER 03Z.  VLIFR DENSE FOG
WILL DEVELOP AFTER 06Z AT EKN...WITH A RETURN TO VFR CONDITIONS BY
12 OR 13Z AS USUAL.  VALLEYS WHERE IT RAINED...ACROSS SOUTHERN
WV...SW VA AND NE KY...COULD SEE IFR FOG AFTER 04Z.

FRI WILL LIKELY BE ANOTHER HAZY DAY.  CONVECTION WILL FIRE UP MAINLY
IN THE AFTERNOON THOUGH CANNOT BE RULED OUT EVEN ANYTIME AFTER
DAYBREAK...WITH FRONT NEARLY STATIONARY ACROSS NORTHERN WV AND
E-CNTRL OHIO.

FLOW WILL BE LIGHT AND VARIABLE AT THE SURFACE AND LIGHT...MAINLY W
ALOFT.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 00Z SATURDAY...
