AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
1124 AM EDT WED JUL 6 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL LINGER ACROSS THE REGION TODAY AND TONIGHT
RESULTING IN MORE ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND STORMS INTO LATE THIS
EVENING. ANOTHER COLD FRONT DROPS IN FROM THE NORTH THURSDAY INTO
FRIDAY BEFORE DRIFTING SOUTH OF THE AREA SATURDAY. HIGH PRESSURE
RETURNS TO THE REGION TOWARD THE LATTER HALF OF THE UPCOMING
WEEKEND BRINGING HOTTER AND DRIER WEATHER BY SUNDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
KFCX RADAR AND SATELLITE PICTURES SHOWED THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING
OVER THE SOUTHERN BLUE RIDGE AND NEW RIVER VALLEY ALONG AN
OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM THE EARLIER SHOWERS OVER SOUTHEAST WEST
VIRGINIA. SPS ANALYSIS AT 14Z/10AM SHOWED A WEAK CAP AND CAPES
AROUND 1000 J/KG IN THE FOOTHILLS. EXPECT COVERAGE OF
THUNDERSTORMS TO INCREASE...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE SOUTHERN COUNTY
WARNING AREA THROUGH 3PM. WILL MENTION THE CHANCE OF HEAVY RAIN
WITH THE STORMS TODAY SINCE STORM MOTION IS ONLY AROUND 10 KNOTS
AND PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES WERE NEAR 1.5 INCHES ON THE AREA
SOUNDINGS THIS MORNING.

WATER VAPOR LOOP SHOWED A SHORT WAVE OVER OHIO WITH THE TAIL OF
THE WAVE INTO THE TENNESSEE VALLEY. AS THIS FEATURE CROSSES THE
AREA...STORMS MAY BECOME MORE ORGANIZED INTO LINES AND CLUSTERS
ENOUGH TO PUSH ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE COUNTY WARNING AREA.
RUC...HRRR AND LOCAL WRF ALL HAVE THE BULK OF THE
PRECIPITATION JUST SOUTHEAST OF THE FORECAST AREA BY BOUT
02Z/10PM. HAVE ADJUSTED PROBABILITY OF PRECIPITATION FOR THIS
TIMING.

MODELS WERE SHOWING SOME DRYING ALOFT MAY WORK IN BEHIND THIS
FEATURE OVER THE NORTH LATE WHILE SHRA MAY BE SLOW TO EXIT THE SE
UNLESS THINGS ORGANIZE MORE DURING THE EVENING AND MOVE FARTHER SE
PER THE LATEST NAM.

SINCE THIS LOOKS A BIT FAST GIVEN SO MUCH MOISTURE AROUND...WILL
LEAVE IN CHANCE POPS SE AFTER MIDNIGHT. LOW TEMPS LIKELY JUST A
LITTLE COOLER PRIMARILY DUE TO EARLIER CONVECTION...AND SLIGHTLY
LOWER DEWPOINTS OUTSIDE THE PIEDMONT BUT STILL MAINLY IN THE 60S
OVERNIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
A WEAK COLD FRONT IN THE OHIO VALLEY WILL HAVE A SURFACE WAVE
TRACKING ALONG IT ON THURSDAY. THIS WAVES WILL TRACK WEST OF THE
REGION. THE AREA WILL BE IN THE WARM AND HUMID SECTOR AND WITH A
SOUTHERLY FLOW AND AFTERNOON HEATING...CONVECTION WILL START ALONG
THE BLUE RIDGE DURING THE EARLY AFTERNOON...SPREAD TO THE FOOTHILLS
IN THE MID AFTERNOON...THEN INTO THE PIEDMONT DURING THE EVENING
HOURS. OUT FLOW FROM THE BLUE RIDGE STORMS WILL BRING SCATTERED
CONVECTION TO THE REST OF THE MOUNTAINS. SEVERE THREAT WILL BE LARGE
HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS. A SECONDARY THREAT WILL BE FLASH FLOODING AS
PWATS RUN ABOVE NORMAL AND STORM MOTION WILL BE SLOW.

THE FRONT WILL MOVE OVER THE MOUNTAINS ON FRIDAY. ANOTHER SURFACE
WAVE WILL TRACK ALONG THIS FRONT BRINGING ANOTHER ROUND OF SEVERE
WEATHER TO THE REGION. THE HIGHEST POSSIBILITY WILL BE ALONG THE
VA/NC BORDER TO INCLUDE SOUTHSIDE VA. LARGE HAIL...DAMAGING WINDS
AND FLASH FLOOD POSSIBLE. THE THETA-E BOUNDARY REMAINS TO THE NORTH
FRIDAY. WITH AFTERNOON HEATING...THE REST OF THE AREA COULD SEE
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WITH ONLY A FEW BECOMING SEVERE.

TEMPERATURES NEAR NORMAL ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS AS AFTERNOON STORMS
FIRE EARLY. OUT EAST...UPPER 80S TO LOWER 90S LIKELY. FRIDAY WILL BE
A TAD COOLER WITH THE FRONT ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS AND SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS MOVING ACROSS THE REGION.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
DURING THIS PORTION OF THE FORECAST WE ANTICIPATE THE PREVAILING
UPPER LEVEL FLOW ACROSS THE REGION WILL TRANSITION FROM A GENERAL
TROUGHINESS OVER THE EASTERN U.S. TO A PATTERN OF A BUILDING UPPER
HIGH OVER THE REGION. ANTICIPATE GENEROUS SCATTERED COVERAGE OF
SHOWERS AND STORMS FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY AS A NEARLY STATIONARY
FRONTAL BOUNDARY STAYS OVER OR CLOSE TO THE REGION AND ACTS AS A
FOCUS FOR DAILY SHOWERS AND STORMS. BY SUNDAY INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK...THE FRONT WILL BE SHUNTED TO THE SOUTH AS HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS OVERHEAD. ANTICIPATE A WARMING TREND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK
WITH DECREASING COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS. STAYED CLOSE THE HPC
NUMBERS FOR TEMPERATURES AND PRECIPITATION CHANCES.

&&

.AVIATION /15Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
WEAK WAVE WORKING ACROSS THE AREA CONTINUES TO KEEP CONVECTION
REDEVELOPING ESPCLY ACROSS THE NORTH AND NW SECTIONS. EXPECT SOME
OF THIS TO LINGER THRU MID MORNING OR SO BEFORE HEATING CAUSES THE
SHRA TO BRIEFLY FADE BEFORE RENEWED CONVECTION GETS GOING AROUND
MIDDAY ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS. THEREFORE WILL NEED TO INCLUDE A
PREVAILING SHRA FROM KBLF/KLWB EAST TO KLYH THIS MORNING AND
PERHAPS KBCB PENDING HOW FAR EAST THIS NEW AREA OF SHRA MAKES IT.
OTRW GIVEN UNCERTAINTY WILL TEMPO IN A COUPLE HOURS OF MVFR IN
SHRA/TSRA INCLUDING A BIT OF MVFR IN FOG TO INIT AT A COUPLE OF
THE WESTERN SITES EARLY THIS MORNING.

ANY FOG WILL DISSIPATE QUICKLY BY MID MORNING AND GRADUALLY GIVE
WAY TO A SCTD/BKN CU FIELD FOR MOST LOCATIONS BY MIDDAY AS THE
INITIAL WAVE PASSES. HOWEVER CLOUDS AND PERHAPS ISOLATED CONVECTION
MAY LINGER AROUND IN SPOTS AND ACT TO DELAY LATER COVERAGE A BIT.
OTRW PLAN TO KEEP IN GOING CB MENTION MOST SPOTS AND INCLUDE A
VCTS ALONG THE BLUE RIDGE AND POINTS EAST WHERE BETTER POTENTIAL
LOOKS TO EXIST FOR MORE SCTD TO ORGANIZED STORMS THIS AFTERNOON.
SHOULD SEE TSRA EXIT THIS EVENING ALLOWING A BIT OF DRYING ALOFT
WHICH MAY GIVE WAY TO SOME CLEARING OVERNIGHT. THIS WILL SPELL
MORE IN THE WAY OF FOG ESPCLY IN THE WAKE OF EARLIER HEAVIER
CONVECTION SO TAKING JUST ABOUT ALL SPOTS DOWN TO MVFR VSBYS LATE
AND IFR OR WORSE AT SPOTS LIKE KLWB/KBCB/KLYH PENDING RAINFALL TODAY.

ANTICIPATE DAILY THREAT OF SCATTERED SHRA/TSRA THURSDAY THROUGH
SATURDAY AS A STATIONARY FRONTAL BOUNDARY REMAINS OVER OR NEAR THE
AREA. INCREASED RIDGING ALOFT MAY FINALLY SHUT DOWN THE DAILY
CONVECTIVE REGIME ON SUNDAY.

LATE NIGHT AND EARLY MORNING PATCHY FOG AND MVFR CIGS WILL BE
POSSIBLE AS RESIDUAL MOISTURE FROM THE PREVIOUS DAYS CONVECTION
CONDENSES UNDER THE NOCTURNAL INVERSION.
