AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
1027 AM EDT MON APR 25 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A NEARLY STATIONARY FRONT OVER THE OHIO VALLEY ACTING AS A FOCUS
FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN NORTH OF THE
AREA THROUGH MID-WEEK. A LARGE RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE OFF THE
ATLANTIC COAST WILL MAINTAIN VERY WARM AND MOSTLY DRY WEATHER IN
PLACE EXCEPT FOR ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCATTERED AFTERNOON MOUNTAIN
THUNDERSTORMS. A COLD FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE WEST WILL
INCREASE PRECIPITATION CHANCES BY LATE WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
MOST NOTABLE UPDATE TO THE FORECAST IS THE INTRODUCTIO OF ISOLATED
SHOWERS AND STORMS ACROSS THE PIEDMONT LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND
EARLY EVENING. BEST FORCING WILL REMAIN NORTH OF THE REGION...AND
THE BEST POTENTIAL FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL BE ACROSS SOUTHEAST
WEST VIRGINIA. HOWEVER...CANNOT RULE OUT A HIT OR MISS SHOWER OR
STORM IN THE EAST. OTHER ADJUSTMENTS HAVE BEEN TWEAK IN THE HOURLY
TRENDS OF TEMPERATURE...DEW POINT...SKY COVER AND WIND SPEED
THROUGH THE EARLY AFTERNOON BASED UPON CURRENT CONDITIONS AND
EXPECTED CHANGES.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
A LARGE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE OFF THE SOUTHEAST U.S.
COAST CONTINUED TO DOMINATE OUR WEATHER WITH UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVES
TRACKING ON THE NORTHERN PERIPHERY OF THIS RIDGE...WEST AND NORTH OF
OUR AREA.

EXPECT TO SEE A SLIGHT INCREASE IN COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS...MAINLY IN THE MOUNTAINS...THIS AFTERNOON INTO EARLY
THIS EVENING. LOW LEVEL FLOW BECOMES MORE SOUTHERLY PUSHING HIGHER
PW VALUES INTO THE REGION. GFS BUFKIT SOUNDINGS INCREASE PW VALUES
FROM JUST OVER A HALF INCH SUNDAY EVENING TO NEARLY ONE INCH BY
21Z TODAY. COMBINE THIS WITH SLIGHTLY COOLER MID LEVEL AIR AND THIS
SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO SPARK WIDELY SCATTERED STORMS...DUE TO TERRAIN
EFFECTS.

21Z LOCAL WRF MODEL HAS DONE WELL WITH THE LOCATION OF PRECIP
THROUGH 06Z...AND THIS MODEL IS FAIRLY AGGRESSIVE IN GENERATING
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS IN THE MOUNTAINS AFTER 18Z...AND EVEN
SPILLING PRECIP EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE. THE GFS ALSO SHOWS PRECIP
DEVELOPING EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE...BUT CONSIDERING BEST FORCING
WILL BE WELL NORTH OF THE AREA...WILL KEEP PRECIP CHANCES CONFINED
TO THE MOUNTAINS.

HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL AGAIN BE VERY WARM TODAY...ALTHOUGH WE LOSE
SOME OF THE DOWNSLOPE COMPONENT SEEN YESTERDAY.
HOWEVER...CONSIDERING HOW WARM TEMPS WILL BE STARTING OUT AT
DAYBREAK...LEANED TWD THE WARMER NAM MOS VALUES IN THE MTNS AND
THE WARMER GFS MOS VALUES EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE.

WITH THE SFC BOUNDARY STILL WELL NORTH OF THE FORECAST AREA
TONIGHT...AND THE NORTHERN EDGE OF THE UPPER RIDGE STILL IN
PLACE...FEEL ANY PRECIP THAT DEVELOPS WILL BE DIURNALLY DRIVEN. AS A
RESULT...DRIED THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA OUT BY 03Z...AS SHOWN BY THE
LOCAL WRF.

USED THE WARMER NAM MOS GUIDANCE FOR LOWS MONDAY NIGHT DUE AN
EXPECTED INCREASE INCREASE IN LOW LEVEL MOISTURE COMBINED
WITH A CANOPY OF HIGH DEBRIS CLOUDS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
MIDWESTERN LONG WAVE TROF WILL AMPLIFY TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY
NIGHT...BEFORE MEAN TROF FINALLY BEGINS TO FILL AND EJECT EASTWARD
WEDNESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY NIGHT. DEEPENING TROF TO THE WEST WILL
ALLOW UPPER FLOW OVER THE MID ATLANTIC REGION TO SLOWLY BACK THROUGH
WEDNESDAY...GRADUALLY ADVECTING MOISTER AIR NORTH INTO THE REGION.

MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES REMAIN FAVORABLE FOR CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT
DESPITE LIMITED DYNAMICS...AND AS LOWER AND MID TROPOSPHERIC
MOISTURE SLOWLY INCREASES WITH TIME. CHANCES OF DIURNALLY-DRIVEN
SCATTERED CONVECTION WILL SLOWLY INCREASE BY WEDNESDAY INTO
WEDNESDAY NIGHT...WHEN UPPER TROF FINALLY SHIFTS EAST ALONG WITH
ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT.

PLAYED THE HIGHEST POPS WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS BETTER DYNAMICS AND
PROXIMITY OF SURFACE COLD FRONT ARRIVE FROM THE WEST. TIMING
DIFFERENCES REMAIN BETWEEN MORE NEGATIVELY TILTED AND SLOWER UPPER
TROF PROGRESSION OF THE NAM/ECMWF...TO THE MUCH MORE AGGRESSIVE AND
FLATTER GFS. SPC CONVECTIVE OUTLOOKS HIGHLIGHTED THE POTENTIAL FOR
SEVERE WEATHER WITH DAMAGING WIND AND HAIL MAIN THREAT AND WILL
CONTINUE MENTION IN HWO. FOR TEMPERATURES...WENT WITH HIGHS NEAR
GUIDANCE FROM THE MID 70S IN THE MOUNTAINS TO THE LOWER 80S IN THE
PIEDMONTS. LOWS WILL RANGE FROM LOWER 50S TO THE MID 60S IN THE
SOUTHEAST.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
EARLY PART OF THE LONG TERM PERIOD WILL BE CHARACTERIZED BY EAST
COAST TROUGHINESS...GRADUALLY TO BE REPLACED BY EAST COAST FLAT
RIDGE BY LATE IN THE PERIOD AS NEXT AGGRESSIVE UPPER LONG WAVE TROF
CRASHES SOUTHEAST INTO THE FOUR-CORNERS AREA...BUILDING HEIGHTS
FURTHER DOWNSTREAM.

SOME INCONSISTENCIES EXIST IN THE TIMING OF THE COLD FRONT. GFS
SWEEPS FRONT EAST OF THE BLACKSBURG FORECAST AREA BY LATE THURSDAY
MORNING. ECMWF A BIT DEEPER AND MORE NEGATIVELY TILTED WITH THE LONG
WAVE TROF...RESULTING IN FRONTAL PASSAGE LATER IN THE AFTERNOON.
TIMING WILL BE CRITICAL FOR THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER...AT LEAST FOR
THE EASTERN-SOUTHEASTERN COUNTIES...ESPECIALLY IF UPPER FLOW BACKS
SUFFICIENTLY AND FRONT IS DELAYED UNTIL TIME OF PEAK HEATING. FOR
NOW...WILL MAINTAIN HPC SOLUTION OF KEEPING THREAT OF SHOWERS OR
THUNDERSTORMS IN MOST AREAS DURING THE MORNING...TRENDING DOWN TO
NEGLIGIBLE THREAT FROM WEST TO EAST AS THE AFTERNOON PROGRESSES.

REGARDLESS OF MODEL TIMING SOLUTIONS...FRONT WILL BE WELL EAST OF
THE BLACKSBURG FORECAST AREA BY THURSDAY NIGHT...WITH DOWNSLOPE
DRYING AND CLEARING EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE. HOWEVER...STRONG COLD
ADVECTION AND UPSLOPING WEST OF THE BLUE RIDGE WILL HOLD IN CLOUDS
AND MAINTAIN THE THREAT OF SHOWERS WELL INTO FRIDAY...ESPECIALLY IN
THE SOUTHEASTERN WEST VIRGINIA COUNTIES.  GOOD MIXING AND ABUNDANT
CLOUD COVER ACROSS THE WEST SHOULD MINIMIZE DIURNAL TEMPERATURE
CURVE IN THIS AREA...BUT WITH MUCH MORE PRONOUNCED CURVE EXPECTED
EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE WHERE INSOLATION WILL BE MAXIMIZED BY
DAY...AND WHERE SOME LOWER ATMOSPHERIC DECOUPLING WILL OCCUR BY
NIGHT.

REST OF THE FORECAST LOOKS TO BE DRY WITH GRADUAL MODERATION OF
TEMPERATURES BACK TO ABOVE NORMAL READINGS SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY AS
UPPER RIDGE GRADUALLY AMPLIFIES OVER THE REGION. APPROACH OF THE
NEXT COLD FRONT...AS WESTERN TROF SYSTEM NEARS THE AREA AND BEGINS
TO BREAK DOWN THE UPPER FLAT RIDGE ALONG THE EAST COAST...MAY PUSH
CLOSE ENOUGH TO THE FORECAST AREA TO ALLOW FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS OR
THUNDERSTORMS TO IMPINGE ON THE AREA FROM THE WEST BY
SUNDAY...ESPECIALLY DURING THE AFTERNOON.

HPC GUIDANCE GENERALLY FOLLOWED THROUGH THE LONG TERM PERIOD...WITH
EXCEPTION TO TWEAKS NEEDED TO REFLECT INFLUENCES OF TOPOGRAPHY ON
CLOUDS...TEMPERATURES...AND PRECIPITATION FIELDS.

&&

.AVIATION /15Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES AND LIGHT WINDS HAS RESULTED IN AREAS OF PATCHY
FOG...WITH LIFR CONDITIONS AT LWB AND IFR CONDITIONS AT KDAN.

ANY FOG SHOULD QUICKLY ERODE BY 14Z LEAVING VFR FLYING CONDITIONS
AT ALL TAF SITES THROUGH THE DAY. SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL
AGAIN BE GUSTY THIS AFTERNOON WITH GUSTS TO 25 KTS
POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY IN THE MOUNTAINS. ALSO EXPECTED A SLIGHT
INCREASE IN COVERAGE OF ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCATTERED MOUNTAIN
SHOWERS AND STORMS DURING THE AFTERNOON...HOWEVER COVERAGE IS
STILL SMALL ENOUGH TO NOT MENTION AT ANY TAF SITES.

AS SOUTH WINDS CONTINUE TO PUSH MOISTURE INTO THE
REGION...CONFIDENCE IS GROWING THAT AREAS OF FOG AND LOW
CLOUDS...POTENTIALLY PRODUCING IFR CONDITIONS...WILL DEVELOP LATE
TONIGHT.

THE OHIO VALLEY FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL REMAIN BASICALLY STATIONARY
EARLY THIS WEEK WITH WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWERS IN THE MOUNTAINS
AND ONLY ISOLATED OVER THE PIEDMONT. A COLD FRONT BRINGS A
SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN PRECIPITATION CHANCES BY MID-WEEK WITH
ASSOCIATED MVFR TO PERHAPS IFR FLIGHT RESTRICTIONS WEDNESDAY INTO
PERHAPS THURSDAY UNTIL FRONT PASSES TO THE EAST AND DRIER AIR ON
THE BACKSIDE OF THE SYSTEM ARRIVES FROM THE WEST.
