25What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Charleston, WV wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jul 3, 4:49 PM EDT, 1 hour 27 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jul 3, 4:49 PM EDT, 1 hour 27 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV 449 PM EDT SUN JUL 3 2011 .SYNOPSIS... COLD FRONT SLOWLY SAGS SOUTH INTO THE AREA TONIGHT...AND LINGERS IN THE SOUTH MONDAY. WEAK HIGH PRESSURE PREVAILS TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. ANOTHER COLD FRONT BRINGS CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION THURSDAY. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/... MESOSCALE UPDATE... SENT OUT A QUICK UPDATE ACCOUNTING FOR BKN CONVECTIVE LINE ALONG OH RVR...JUST NORTH OF PKB AREA. THIS IS IN RESPONSE TO A WEAK BAROCLINIC ZONE...MORE OR LESS A WIND SHIFT AT THIS POINT...PROVIDING FOR CONVERGENCE NEEDED FOR LIFT. GREATEST COVERAGE IS ACROSS AFOREMENTIONED AREAS ALONG DECENT THETA E GRADIENT AND WHERE SFC BASED CAPE IS GREATEST. INSERTED SOME CAT POPS ACROSS WASHINGTON COUNTY AND ACROSS NORTHERN LOWLANDS INTO LATE THIS AFTN TO ACCOUNT FOR CONVECTIVE LINE. THINK THIS WILL TEND TO WEAKEN ON APPROACH TO NORTHERN MTNS BY 00Z. FARTHER S AND W...ACTIVITY IS MORE ISO IN NATURE ATTM WHERE RELATIVE MIN IN INSTABILITY EXISTS AND EXPECT THIS TO HOLD TRUE THRU THE REMAINDER OF AFTN AS AXIS SHIFTS E. FURTHER W...ACROSS SOUTHERN MO AND IL...COMPLEXES BLOWING UP ALONG WESTERN PORTIONS OF FRONTAL ZONE. THESE WILL HAVE TO BE WATCHED BUT AS OF NOW...EXPECT THESE TO PASS TO WELL S AND W THIS EVENING. WITH PWATS RUNNING ARND 1.75 INCHES...HIGH FRZ LEVEL...AND LACK OF ANY MEANINGFUL SHEAR...LOOKING AT MAINLY PULSE DUMPERS. COULD BE MARGINALLY SVR HAIL IN THE TALLER STORMS THIS AFTN. MAIN THREAT LOOKS TO BE WIND WITH ANY COLLAPSING CORES DUE TO DRY AIR BENEATH H8. PUT GUSTY WORDING AND SM HAIL MENTION IN WX GRIDS FOR A FEW HRS ACROSS NORTH...ALONG WITH HVY RAIN MENTION. SINCE THESE ARE MOVING AND FFG RUNNING HIGH...THINK ANY WATER PROBLEMS WOULD BE MINIMAL AND CONFINED TO POOR DRAINAGE URBAN AREAS. PREVIOUS DISCUSSION BELOW... CURRENT LAPS DATA SHOWING A SURFACE LOW OVER SOUTHEAST OHIO...WITH A PRESSURE TROUGH EXTENDING INTO SOUTHWEST OHIO AND SOUTHERN INDIANA. THIS IS PRIDING CONVERGENCE...AND VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWING ENHANCEMENT IN THE TOWERING CUMULUS CLOUDS. THE FIRST ECHOES OF THE AFTERNOON NOW SHOWING UP ON RADAR IN ILN TERRITORY...AND EXPECTED SHORTLY IN OUR SOUTHEAST OHIO COUNTIES. THE BIGGEST QUESTION IN THE FORECAST THROUGH THE EARLY PART OF TONIGHT IS THE COVERAGE OF THE THUNDERSTORMS. IN EFFORTS TO GO WITH A DETERMINISTIC FORECAST...KEEP THE LIKELIES IN THE NORTHERN CWA THIS AFTERNOON...AND CLOSER TO THE MOUNTAINS THIS EVENING. NOT A LOT OF CONCERN FOR SEVERE WEATHER HERE WITH WATER LOADING IN A HIGH PRECIPITABLE WATER SOUNDING AND WEAK FLOW ALOFT. THE FRONT/PRESSURE TROUGH BECOMES DIFFICULT TO TRACK INTO THE OVERNIGHT...BUT DO HAVE IT MOVING INTO THE SOUTHERN AND EASTERN PORTIONS OF WEST VIRGINIA. LEAVE SLIGHT CHANCE POPS IN GIVEN THIS BOUNDARY...BUT TRY TO CLEAR THE SKY TO A DEGREE BEHIND THE FRONT. A COUPLE OF WEAK SHORT WAVE TROUGH AXES APPEAR IN THE NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT MONDAY. THESE ARE NOT OVERLY IMPRESSIVE FEATURES...AND NEITHER IS THE AVAILABLE MOISTURE...BUT HAVE OPTED FOR SLIGHT CHANCE INTO MONDAY. && .SHORT TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... MODELS ARE IN DESCENT AGREEMENT SHOWING AN H5 HEIGHT SHORT WAVE ACROSS THE OH VALLEY BY TUESDAY 18Z. HOWEVER...DIFFERENCES EXIST IN THE STRENGTH AND POSITION OF THE ASSOCIATED VORTICITY MAXIMUM. WHILE THE GFS BRINGS AN ELONGATED VORTICITY FEATURE FROM CENTRAL KY...NORTHEAST ACROSS WV...CONTINUING INTO SOUTHERN PA...THE CMC AND ECMWF SHOW THIS VORT FEATURE FURTHER SOUTH ALONG KY EAST NORTHEAST ACROSS EXTREME SOUTHERN WV. THE NAM IS THE WEAKER OF ALL MODELS WITH A VERY DIFFUSED VORT FEATURE. BLENDED GFS/CMC SOLUTIONS...ALLOWING POPS AND ASSOCIATED WEATHER TO EXIT THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN SECTIONS MONDAY NIGHT. WITH DRY AIR COLUMN EVIDENT IN MODEL SOUNDINGS...AND LACK OF FORCING...OPTED TO KEEP DRY WEATHER TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY AS A WEAK HIGH PRESSURE DEVELOPS. HIGH PRESSURE WILL LIKELY SETTLE IN BEHIND THE SHORT WAVE FOR TUESDAY...WITH DRY WEATHER AND NEAR SEASONAL TEMPERATURES. TEMPS WILL BE NEAR SEASONAL LEVELS...DUE MAINLY TO CLOUDS AND SHOWERS SOUTH...TO SLIGHTLY COOLER AIR NORTH FOR TUESDAY. WARMER THAN NORMAL TEMPERATURES EXPECTED WEDNESDAY PER PLENTY OF SUNSHINE. && .LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/... MODEL TRY TO BRING ANOTHER BROADER BUT WEAKER H5 TROUGH INTO THE AREA...UNDER NORTHWEST FLOW WEDNESDAY NIGHT. A COLD FRONT WILL FOLLOW WITH ADDITIONAL H5 SHORT WAVES ON THURSDAY. KEPT CHANCE POPS FOR NOW IN DAY 4 AS MODELS CONTINUES TO HAVE A GOOD GRIP ON THESE SYSTEMS. DECREASED POPS TO SLIGHT CHANCE BEHIND THE FRONT THURSDAY NIGHT AND EARLY FRIDAY. HAVE NO POPS/WX FOR THE REST OF NEXT WEEKEND. WENT WITH HPC TEMPERATURES GUIDANCE THROUGH THE PERIOD. && .AVIATION /21Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... CHALLENGING TAFS TODAY WITH THE CONVECTIVE POTENTIAL AND TIMING. DO HAVE TEMPO TSRA CB IN A FEW SITES...MAINLY NORTH THROUGH THE EVENING TIME PERIOD. WITH CONVECTION ALREADY FIRING...THIS SEEMS REASONABLE. NOT EXPECTING MUCH IN THE WAY OF WIND OR HAIL...GIVEN THE SATURATED SOUNDINGS AND HIGH FREEZING LEVELS. DO HAVE SOME CLEARING LATE TONIGHT AS THE CONVECTION CEASES AND THE CONVECTIVE DEBRIS EVAPORATES...SO SOME LATE IFR IS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION WITH VALLEY FOG. ALTHOUGH HAVE SOME SLIGHT CHANCE POPS INTO MONDAY...VFR IS EXPECTED TO PREVAIL THROUGH 18Z. FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 18Z MONDAY... FORECAST CONFIDENCE: MEDIUM. ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: CONVECTIVE TIMING AND COVERAGE...AND THE QUESTION OF FOG DEVELOPMENT LATE TONIGHT. EXPERIMENTAL TABLE OF FLIGHT CATEGORY OBJECTIVELY SHOWS CONSISTENCY OF WFO FORECAST TO AVAILABLE MODEL INFORMATION: H = HIGH: TAF CONSISTENT WITH ALL MODELS OR ALL BUT ONE MODEL.
