Severe Thunderstorm Warning 60, NWS Wakefield, VA

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WAKEFIELD VA
932 PM EDT FRI JUN 29 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES THROUGH THE
WEEKEND. A FAST MOVING COMPLEX OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL PASS ACROSS
THE REGION TONIGHT. OTHERWISE...A WEAK LEESIDE TROUGH OVER THE
AREA MAY HELP TO TRIGGER ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS LATE SATURDAY
NIGHT...WITH A BETTER CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION BY SUNDAY
AFTERNOON.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/...
CONVECTION JUST ABOUT READY TO ENTER THE WESTERN AKQ COUNTIES THUS
WILL KEEP STATUS QUO ON THE WATCH AND GRIDS ATTM. OBS / RADAR
INDICATING GUST FRONT WELL OUT AHEAD OF ANY RAIN...WHICH THE
ECHOES ARE DRYING UP ACROSS SOUTHERN VA COUNTIES. NOTE THE G70KT
AT ROA IN A TSRA WITH A 12K FT BKN CEILING. BEST CHCS FOR RAIN
WILL BE ACROSS NORTHERN COUNTIES NEXT FEW HOURS. THIS TO BE A
GUSTY WIND EVENT MORE THAN ANY SIGNIFICANT RAIN EVENT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY/...
TEMPERATURES ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...
VERY MINIMAL CHANGES TO FLAT RIDGING AND OVERALL AIRMASS ON
SATURDAY. HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE STILL ON TRACK TO BE THE HOTTEST
DAY OF THE WEEKEND (100-105 DEGREES INLAND AND UPPER 90S NEAR THE
IMMEDIATE COAST). SUNDAY SHOULD BE A FEW DEGREES COOLER AS MID AND
HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS STREAM ACROSS THE REGION. DEWPOINTS WILL ONCE
AGAIN BE THE DECIDING FACTOR AS TO WHAT HEAT RELATED HEADLINES
COME INTO PLAY. DEWPOINTS SHOULD STAY IN THE MID-UPPER 60S EACH
AFTERNOON...WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE LOW- MID 70S CLOSER TO THE
COAST. AS TEMPERATURES REACH THE CENTURY MARK INLAND (MID- UPPER
90S NEAR THE IMMEDIATE COAST). HEAT INDICES ARE EXPECTED TO REACH
100-104 DEGREES EVERYWHERE. AS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED...SATURDAY
SHOULD BE THE HOTTEST DAY OF THE WEEKEND WITH HIGH TEMPS BEING A
FEW DEGREES WARMER THAN VALUES EXPERIENCED ON FRIDAY. HEAT
ADVISORIES ARE LIKELY FOR INLAND COUNTIES BUT WILL HOLD OFF ON
ISSUING HEADLINES FOR NOW. SUNDAY TEMPERATURES MAY BE TRICKY SINCE
CLOUDS ARE EXPECTED TO INCREASE THROUGH THE DAY...BUT KEPT THE
FORECAST INTACT FOR NOW WITH TEMPS ONCE AGAIN IN THE LOW 100S
(MID-UPPER 90S IMMEDIATE COAST).

PRECIPITATION...
HEIGHTS REALLY BEGIN TO FALL SATURDAY NIGHT DUE TO A PASSING LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM IN SOUTHERN QUEBEC. WITH A STEADY STREAM OF MOISTURE
AND ENERGY FLOWING THROUGH THE FLATTENED UPPER RIDGE...ANOTHER
ROUND OF NOCTURNAL MCS ACTIVITY IS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION.
MODELS ARE TRACKING A SHORTWAVE (CURRENTLY IN SOUTH DAKOTA/WESTERN
IOWA) ACROSS THE REGION OVERNIGHT AND WITHIN A MORE FAVORABLY
SHEARED ENVIRONMENT. CROSS SECTIONS ARE SHOWING MOISTURE FROM 700 MB
ON UP AND IN A REGION OF ENHANCED LIFT. WITH THIS MUCH MOISTURE
CLOSER TO THE SURFACE...INTERACTION WITH THE LEESIDE TROUGH WILL
ONLY ACT TO ENHANCE THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL. HAVE INCREASED PRECIP
CHANCES NORTH OF THE I-64 CORRIDOR (INCLUDING THE LOWER EASTERN
SHORE) FOR SATURDAY EVENING...PUSHING EASTWARD LATE SATURDAY
NIGHT...AND OFFSHORE BY EARLY SUNDAY MORNING. THE BEST CHANCE FOR
WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IS EXPECTED SUNDAY AFTERNOON
AS HEIGHTS CONTINUE TO FALL. A LONGWAVE TROUGH OVER QUEBEC ALSO
BEGINS TO INFLUENCE THE EAST COAST WX PATTERN AND PERSISTENT
RIDGING OVER THE INTERMOUNTAIN WEST AND CENTRAL PLAINS AMPLIFIES.
AS THIS OCCURS...NORTHWEST FLOW DEVELOPS ALOFT SUNDAY NIGHT AND
OPENS THE DOOR FOR POTENTIALLY MORE THUNDERSTORM MONDAY AFTERNOON.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
NOT MUCH CHANGE IN THE WX PATTERN IS EXPECTED NEXT WEEK WITH AN
UPPER RIDGE REMAINING OVER THE MIDSECTION OF THE COUNTRY AND AN
UPR TROUGH/NW FLOW POSITIONED OVER NEW ENGLAND AND EASTERN CANADA.
VARIOUS IMPULSES EMBEDDED WITHIN THE NW FLOW MAY BRING AN ISOLATED
TSTM CHC TO THE REGION NEARLY EACH AFTN/EVE. OTW...EXPECTING
MUCH-ABOVE-NORMAL HIGH TEMPERATURES TO CONTINUE. HIGHS IN THE
MID/UPR 90S FOR INLAND AREAS...AND UPR 80S/LOW 90S AT THE
IMMEDIATE COAST.

&&

.AVIATION /02Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
CONTG TO MONITOR CNVTV COMPLEX TRACKING ESE INTO THE WV MTNS (FM
THE OH VLY). IF COMPLEX CAN SURVIVE MTNS IN THE NEXT HR OR
TWO...PTNTL ARRIVAL TO TAF SITES (ESP RIC/SBY) BTWN 03-06Z. OTRW...

VFR WX ACROSS THE REGION AS A DOME OF HIGH PRESSURE BRINGS HOT AND
HUMID CONDS TO THE MID ATL. THE HOT/HUMID AIRMASS MAY CAUSE SOME
HAZY CONDS ESP IN THE EARLY MORNING.

OUTLOOK...A COLD FRONT WILL PUSH INTO THE CWA BY LATE SUN AND
BRING A CHC FOR LATE AFTN/EVENING SHOWERS AND TSTMS. THE FRONT
WILL MOVE NORTH ON MONDAY. THERE WILL BE A CHC FOR AFTN/EVENING
CONVECTION THRU THE EARLY PART OF THE WEEK.

&&

.MARINE...
A WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL WASH OUT OVER THE MARINE AREA BY
TONIGHT. S-SW WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE W TONIGHT/EARLY SAT BEFORE
SHIFTING BACK TO THE S-SW SAT AFTN. DURING THIS TIME WINDS WILL
REMAIN BELOW 15 KT...AND THEREFORE NO SCA HEADLINES WILL BE
NECESSARY.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO DOMINATE THE WX PATTERN THROUGH
MUCH OF NEXT WEEK. THIS WILL RESULT IN LIGHT SFC WINDS AND SEAS
3 FT OR LESS...WITH WAVES 1 TO 2 FT ON THE CHES BAY.
