Area forecast discussion, Jul 22, 3:20 PM EDT, 1 hour 32 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
320 PM EDT FRI JUL 22 2011
.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT WILL REMAIN OVERHEAD THROUGH TONIGHT. THE HIGH
WILL THEN BUILD SOUTHWEST INTO NEXT WEEK...ALLOWING A WEAK FRONT TO
BRING COOLER AND DRIER AIR TO THE REGION ON MONDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/...
CONVECTION IS FORMING ON MOST OF OUR FLANKS...AND THINKING THE
MAJORITY OF SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL FORM IN SOUTHEAST
OHIO...SOUTHERN COAL FIELDS...AND WV MOUNTAINS. THIS IS DUE TO A
COMBINATION OF A VORT MAX JUST TO OUR WEST AND 700MB DEFORMATION
FORMING OVER THE WV MOUNTAINS. FLOW IS WEEK ACROSS THE REGION SO
THESE STORMS WILL BE SLOW MOVING. ACCORDINGLY...THE FOCUS WILL BE
ON RAINFALL DUE TO THE VERY JUICY ATMOSPHERE WE ARE IN. LIGHTNING
AND LOCALIZED GUSTY WINDS WILL ALSO BE A CONCERN THIS AFTERNOON AND
INTO THIS EVENING.
FOR TONIGHT...SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL CONTINUE MAINLY OVER THE WV
MOUNTAINS. EXPECTING MORE FOG DEVELOPMENT TONIGHT...LEADING INTO
CONTINUED HAZY CONDITIONS TOMORROW. CLOUDS WILL BE INCREASING
TOMORROW AS A WEAK FRONT TO OUR NORTH MOVES CLOSER TO OUR AREA.
THINKING THE CLOUD COVER WILL LIMIT OUR MAX TEMPS TOMORROW...TO
RIGHT AROUND 90 FOR MANY AREAS. THEREFORE...THE SOUPY CONDITIONS
WILL PERSIST. HAVE CHANCE POPS IN PLACE ACROSS THE REGION FOR
TOMORROW.
&&
.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...WE ARE STILL ON
TARGET TO GET INTO NORTHWEST FLOW SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY.
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE IN THIS WEATHER PATTERN.
WITH PRECIP WATER IN EXCESS OF 1.5 TO NEAR 2 INCHES...ANY STORM THAT
MOVES ACROSS THE REGION WILL BE CAPABLE OF HEAVY RAINFALL.
HEAT WILL CONTINUE ALONG WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS SUNDAY. SHORTWAVE WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA DURING THE
EVENING HOURS. THIS WILL ONCE AGAIN ENHANCE THE CHANCE FOR HEAVY
RAIN. HOWEVER...DO NOT ANTICIPATE A WIDESPREAD RAIN EVENT.
PATTERN FINALLY CHANGES MONDAY AS A COLD FRONT MOVES SOUTHEAST.
COOLER TEMPERATURES AND DRIER AIR WILL FILTER IN BEHIND THE FRONTAL
PASSAGE. THIS WILL GIVE A BRIEF BREAK FROM THE SWELTERING HEAT OF
THE PREVIOUS WEEK.
&&
.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE MOVES BACK ACROSS THE AREA DURING THIS PERIOD.
RELATIVELY DRY CONDITIONS WILL BE LIKELY. TEMPERATURES WILL
GRADUALLY INCREASE THROUGHOUT THE WEEK. ABOVE AVERAGE HEAT WILL BE
LIKELY POSSIBLE. HAVE OPTED TO GO WITH HPC FOR THIS FORECAST WITH
ONLY MINOR TWEAKS.
&&
.AVIATION /19Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
MOSTLY VFR CONDITIONS FOR THE REST OF THIS AFTERNOON. KEPT
CRW...PKB...CKB...WITH MVFR VSBYS DUE LINGERING HAZE. THESE
CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON. DID NOT INCLUDE
TSRA IN ANY TAFS DUE TO COMPLEXITY OF FORECAST. HOWEVER TSTORMS ARE
STARTING TO POP UP...MOSTLY IN SOUTHEAST OH AND SOUTH OF OUR CWA.
PUT CBS IN ALL TAFS TO ACCOUNT FOR THE ISOLATED CONVECTION.
FOR TONIGHT...EXPECTING MORE FOG DEVELOPMENT. HAVE HTS AND PKB IN
MVFR BY 5Z. THE REST OF THE TERMINALS ARE EXPECTED TO DROP TO IFR
VSBYS BY 8Z. HOPEFULLY THE TERMINALS WILL ALL COME UP TO VFR AROUND
12Z TOMORROW AND BE FREE OF THE HAZE.
FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 18Z SATURDAY...
FORECAST CONFIDENCE: MEDIUM.
ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: FOG TIMING AND DENSITY MAY BE DIFFERENT FROM
