AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WAKEFIELD VA
621 AM EDT MON APR 2 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE OFF THE NEW JERSEY COAST THIS
MORNING...PUSHING A COLD FRONT THROUGH THE AREA. HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS OVER THE REGION...THEN JUST OFFSHORE FROM THIS AFTERNOON
THROUGH TUESDAY. ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH FROM THE
NORTHWEST TUESDAY NIGHT...THEN PUSH ACROSS THE AREA WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
INCRSD POPS ACRS SE VA...CSTL NE NC FOR FAST MOVG SHRAS THROUGH
ERY MRNG HRS.

PREV DISCUSSION:
WK SFC LO PRES EXITING NJ CST RIGHT NOW...W/ STRNG CDFNT POISED
TO ENTER THE NRN PORTIONS OF FA...THEN PUSH QUICKLY THROUGH THE FA
DURG THE ERY/MID MRNG HRS. BULK OF THE SHRAS HV BEEN DISSIPATING
OVRNGT AS THEY ENTER THE RGN FM THE NNW. WL CONT W/ HIGHTEST POPS
ACRS THE NE QTR OF THE FA THE NEXT FEW HRS...AND ONLY ISOLD SHRAS
ELSW. QUICK CLRG ANTICIPATED FM MID THROUGH LT MRNG HRS...W/ A
SUNNY AFTN XPCD. THE BIGGER ISSUE WILL BE THE DVLPMNT OF GUSTY NNW
WNDS (TO 30-35 MPH)...HIGHEST E PORTION...CONTG INTO THE AFTN HRS.
TEMPS CURRENTLY RUNNING FM THE 50S TO L60S...MAY DROP OFF A FEW
DEGS F THIS MRNG POST CDFNT...THEN RECOVER BACK INTO THE 60S THIS
AFTN (AFTN TEMPS AT THE CST MAY ONLY TOP OUT IN THE U50S). THE
GUSTY WNDS WILL MAKE IT FEEL COOLER.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
SFC HI PRES FM ERN CANADA SETTLES SSE INTO THE MDATLC/NE CONUS BY
TNGT/ERY TUE...RESULTING IN LWRG WNDS/DRY AIR AND GENLY SKC. A
RETURN LLVL FLO FM THE SSW BEGINS BY LT TUE AND CONTS THROUGH TUE

CDFNT APPROACHES FM THE NW TUE NGT (SLGT CHC POPS RMN AS WARMER
AMS CONTS TO SPRD OVR THE RGN)...THEN THE CDFNT GRDLY SETTLES S
THROUGH THE FA ON WED...RESULTING IN VRBL CLDNS/INCRSD CLDNS AND
AN INTRODUCTION OF CHC POPS...HIGHEST WL CONT TO BE CNTRL/S VA
INTO NE NC.

ONE ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE MONITORED IS PSBL FROST TNGT. TRENDS OF
SFC DEWPTS ALG W/ HOW QUICKLY WNDS/TEMPS DROP TNGT WILL DETERMINE
ITS PTNTL. RIGHT NOW...PROB IS LO ENUF TO LET DAYSHIFT DECIDE

LO TEMPS TNGT FM THE M30S TO L40S. HI TEMPS TUE FM THE M/U60S AT
THE CST...TO THE 70S INLAND. LO TEMPS TUE NGT FM THE M40S TO L50S.
HI TEMPS WED MNLY IN THE M/U70S.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
SOMEWHAT BETTER MODEL CONSENSUS FOR THE MEDIUM RANGE PERIOD...GENERALLY
THE LOCAL AREA SHOULD REMAIN UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF NORTHERN STREAM
N/NW FLOW. WED'S COLD FRONT WILL BE PUSHING SOUTH OF THE REGION BY
WED EVENING...WILL LINGER LOW CHC POPS IN SOUTHERN AREAS OTHERWISE
BECOMING DRY AND COOLER. THU/FRI...THE MODELS CONTINUE TO DEPICT A
SLOW MOVING/CUTOFF UPPER LEVEL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM TRACKING ESE
FROM THE LWR-MID MS VALLEY INTO THE SE STATES...AND EVENTUALLY OFF
THE SC/GA COAST FRI NIGHT/EARLY SAT. WILL CONTINUE TO FAVOR THE
DRIER NORTHERN STREAM FLOW AS DOMINANT...AND LATEST ECMWF HAS
TRENDED TOWARDS THIS SOLUTION AS WELL (PREVIOUS ECMWF RUNS HAD
SUGGESTED THE UPPER LOW COULD COME CLOSE ENOUGH TO THE MID ATLC TO
WARRANT AT LEAST CHC POPS). FOR HIGH TEMPS THU-SAT...WITH A N/NE FLOW IN
THE LOW LEVELS AROUND SFC HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED OVER THE NE STATES...WILL
KEEP HIGH TEMPERATURES NEAR AVG (INLAND) AND SLIGHTLY BELOW AVG (ALONG
THE COAST)...MAINLY IN THE 60S. SKIES AVG OUT PARTLY SUNNY THROUGHOUT.
UPR LEVEL RIDGING LOOKS TO BUILD EAST BY EASTER SUNDAY...BRINGING
A WARMING TREND W/ DRY CONDITIONS PREVAILING...HIGHS MAINLY IN THE
70S.

&&

.AVIATION /10Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
LOW PRESSURE AND ITS ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL QUICKLY EXIT EASTERN
VIRGINIA THIS MORNING WITH WINDS SHIFTING AROUND TO THE NW AND
BECOMING GUSTY BEHIND THE FRONT. VFR SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE OVER THE
EASTERN SHORE THROUGH 09Z. QUICK CLEARING IS EXPECTED BEHIND THE
FRONT THROUGH MID-MORNING. GUSTS BETWEEN 25-30 KT WILL BE COMMON
THROUGH LATE AFTERNOON BEFORE DISSIPATING CLOSE TO SUNSET.

OUTLOOK: HI PRES AND VFR CONDS EXPECTED THRU TUE BEFORE NEXT FRONT
APPROACHES FROM THE NW BY WED.

&&

.MARINE...
SCA FLAGS CURRENTLY IN EFFECT FOR ALL WATERS. LOW PRESSURE WILL
QUICKLY MOVE OFFSHORE EARLY THIS MORNING AND WILL BE FOLLOWED BY
RELATIVELY STRONG CAA SURGE FOR TODAY. THERE COULD EVEN SEE A BRIEF
PERIOD OF GALE FORCE AROUND/JUST AFTER DAYBREAK BUT FEEL THAT ITS
TOO BRIEF AND MARGINAL TO GO W/ GALE HEADLINES AT THIS TIME (FCST
WILL BE FOR SUSTAINED 25-30 KT WINDS W/ GUSTS TO 33 KT). WAVES BUILD
TO 4-5 FT IN THE BAY...AND 5-7 FT FOR THE COASTAL WATERS BY DAYBREAK.
WINDS/WAVES WILL GRADUALLY DECREASE LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS
EVENING.

HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN BY THIS EVENING...ALTHOUGH MODELS SUGGEST
POSSIBILITY OF ANOTHER BRIEF CAA SURGE TONIGHT DOWN THE BAY.
CONFIDENCE NOT HIGH ENOUGH ATTM TO EXTEND THE SCA OUT THROUGH
TONIGHT BUT IF CONDITIONS LOOK WORSE LATER TODAY...THEN ANOTHER SET
OF HEADLINES MAY BE NEEDED FOR THE BAY TONIGHT/EARLY TUES. LIGHTER
FLOW TUE-TUE NIGHT AS HIGH PRESSURE MOVES IN AND SLIDES OFF THE
COAST. ANOTHER ROUND OF SCA CONDITIONS LOOK POSSIBLE LATE WED NIGHT
AS YET ANOTHER FRONT PUSHES THROUGH FOLLOWED BY HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDING IN FROM THE NORTH.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
DAYSHIFT WILL CALL MD OFFICIALS ABOUT PTNTL FOR INCRSD FIRE DANGER
DUE TO GUSTY WNDS/DRYING ATMOS.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
TIDES ARE EXPECTED TO AVERAGE 1 FOOT ABOVE NORMAL DURING THE NEXT
SEVERAL HIGH TIDE CYCLES. HOWEVER...THE LATEST GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO
SUGGEST NO MINOR TIDAL FLOODING AT THIS TIME AS ASTRONOMICAL TIDES
REMAIN RATHER LOW.

&&

.CLIMATE...
THE UNOFFICIAL NUMBERS ARE IN FOR THE MONTH OF MARCH. RIC AND ORF
BOTH HAVE ENDED THE MONTH OF MARCH AS THE 2ND WARMEST ON RECORD...TRAILING
ONLY MARCH 1945. SEE WBCPNSAKQ SENT SUNDAY AFTERNOON FOR DETAILS.
