AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WAKEFIELD VA
322 PM EDT TUE AUG 7 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL REMAIN NEARLY STATIONARY ACROSS THE
REGION INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING...THEN SLOWLY MOVES OFF THE COAST
WEDNESDAY NIGHT. A MORE SUBSTANTIAL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL
IMPACT THE MID ATLANTIC REGION FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
A STATIONARY FRONT WILL REMAIN DRAPED OVER NRN PORTIONS OF THE FA
THROUGH TONIGHT. VERY LITTLE CHANGE TO OVERALL H85 WX PATTERN WITH
THE EXCEPTION OF A TROUGH DEVELOPING OVER THE APPALACHIANS OF
WV/VA. ALTHOUGH SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEEN AT A MINIMUM
EARLY THIS AFTERNOON...SOME CLEARING TO THE SOUTH AND WEST SHOULD
CREATE JUST ENOUGH INSTABILITY FOR THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP/FILL
IN FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST AS THE LATE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING
PROGRESSES. BEST SHORTWAVE ENERGY LIES TO THE SOUTH IN SRN NC BUT
IS EXPECTED ROTATE OUT OVER THE NC OUTER BANKS AREA RATHER THAN
INTO NE NC. A WEAK AREA OF MOISTURE CONVERGENCE SITS OVER THE
LOWER EASTERN SHORE AND ACROSS SE VA WHERE HIGHER STORM TOPS HAVE
BEEN SEEN IN LOW LIGHT VISIBLE SATELLITES IMAGES. THEREFORE...STILL
EXPECTING BEST PRECIP/STORM CHANCES TO BE ACROSS SRN/SE VA AND NE
NC. MAIN THREAT CONTINUES TO BE FROM HEAVY RAIN DUE TO A HUMID
AIRMASS AND TRAINING OF STORMS WHICH MAY CAUSE LOCALIZED FLOODING
PROBLEMS...ESPECIALLY IN AREAS WITH POOR DRAINAGE AS WELL AS IN
LOCATIONS THAT EXPERIENCED UPWARDS OF 2 INCHES OF RAINFALL FROM
TRAINING STORMS YESTERDAY. PRECIP SHOULD TAPER OFF FROM WEST TO
EAST LATER TONIGHT WITH LINGERING SHOWERS AND ISO-SCT THUNDERSTORMS
CLOSER TO THE COAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
THE FRONT WILL AGAIN BE NEARLY STATIONARY OVER THE FA ON WEDNESDAY
AND THEN SLOWLY DISSIPATE OFF THE COAST WEDNESDAY NIGHT...KEEPING AN
UNSETTLED WX PATTERN OVER THE MID ATLANTIC REGION. BEST PRECIP/STORM
CHANCES WILL CONTINUE OVER SE VA AND NE NC WHERE FAVORABLE
LIFT/ENERGY RESIDES...SLIGHT CHANCE POPS EXPECTED NORTH AND WEST OF
THESE AREAS. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL HOVER NEAR SEASONAL NORMALS IN
THE MID-UPPER 80S.

A LEE TROUGH DEVELOPS OVER THE REGION ON THURSDAY. THE TROUGH WILL
HELP TO BOOST TEMPERATURES SEVERAL DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL (LOWER 90S
INLAND...UPPER 80S IMMEDIATE COAST) IN PERSISTENT S-SW SURFACE
FLOW. PLENTY OF HEAT COMBINED WITH ADDITIONAL HUMIDITY PUMPED UP
FROM THE GULF AND ATLANTIC COASTS SHOULD TRIGGER AFTERNOON
THUNDERSTORMS THAT SHOULD MAINTAIN THEMSELVES OVERNIGHT DUE TO THE
PRESENCE OF THETA-E RIDGING.

FRIDAY WILL BE AN INTERESTING DAY AS A MORE SUBSTANTIAL SURFACE LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM APPROACHES THE REGION FROM THE TN/OH VALLEYS.
ANOTHER ROUND OF HOT TEMPERATURES (SIMILAR TO THURSDAY) AND
PLENTY OF HUMIDITY WILL ONCE AGAIN ACT TO DESTABILIZE THE LOWER
LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE AND COULD LEAD TO ADDITIONAL STORM
DEVELOPMENT FRIDAY AFTERNOON. SHEAR PROFILE IS MOSTLY
UNIDIRECTIONAL WITH SOME LOW LEVEL VEERING WITH HEIGHT...THEREFORE
A FEW STORMS COULD BECOME SEVERE WITH LOCALLY DAMAGING WINDS. A
FEW CAVEATS TO CONSIDER ARE THE PRESENCE OF LINGERING SHOWER
ACTIVITY (ESPECIALLY NEAR THE COAST) FRIDAY MORNING AND HOW MUCH
CLOUD COVER WILL STREAM IN AHEAD OF THE LOW AND ITS ASSOCIATED
COLD FRONT...BOTH OF WHICH COULD HAMPER CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT.
TIMING WILL BE EVERYTHING AND WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THIS WX
SITUATION CLOSELY. SPC HAS THE MID ATLANTIC REGION WITHIN A SLIGHT
RISK AREA FOR FRIDAY. WILL KEEP THREAT FOR STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS
OUT OF THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK FOR NOW.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
UPR-LVL TROF PIVOTS FROM THE OH VALLEY TO THE NORTHEAST FRI NGT INTO
SAT...LEADING TO THE RAIN FRI CONTINUING INTO FRI NGT AND SAT. SFC
LO PRES AND AN ASSOCIATED COLD FRNT...DEEP MOISTURE...A PRE-FRONTAL
TROF...AND RFQ OF AN UPR-LVL JET STREAK WILL LEAD TO SHWRS AND TSTMS
LIKELY FRI NGT (60% POPS)...WITH 50% POPS FOR SAT AS MODELS HAVE
SLOWED THE PROGRESSION OF THE AFOREMENTIONED TROF AND ASSOCIATED COLD
FRNT. STRONG STORMS ARE POSSIBLE AS WELL DUE TO STRONG FORCING...
SHEAR...AND A DEVELOPING LLJ. FROPA MAY BE DELAYED UNTIL SAT
AFTN/EVENG...WITH POPS DECREASING SAT NGT AND SUN. HI PRES BLDS IN
BEHIND THE FRNT ERLY NEXT WEEK WITH POPS CAPPED AT 20-30%. TEMPS
NEAR NORMAL THRU THE PERIOD. HIGHS IN THE MID TO UPR 80S WITH LOWS
IN THE MID 60S TO LOW 70S.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 18Z...SCATTERED SHOWERS WERE SPREAD OUT ACROSS EASTERN
PORTIONS OF THE AREA. THE TAF SITES HAVE HAD FREQUENT PERIODS OF
MVFR THROUGHOUT THE PAST SIX HOURS. HAVE VFR WITH TEMPO GROUP OF
MVFR NEXT FEW HOURS.

TSTMS ARE EXPECTED TO INCREASE THROUGH THE AFTN WITH SOME POSSIBLY
DEVELOPING OVER THE PIEDMONT. ALL THE TAF SITES EXCEPT SBY HAVE A 2
HOUR PREDOMINANT PERIOD OF SHOWERS WITH TSTMS IN VICINITY FOR LATE
AFTN/EARLY EVENING. WILL UPDATE IF TSTMS BECOME MORE CERTAIN FOR
THE TERMINAL AREA.

MOS FCSTS ARE MORE BULLISH ON IFR WEDNESDAY MORNING COMPARED WITH
WHAT THEY HAD 24 HOURS AGO FOR THIS MORNING. IFR WILL BE INFLUENCED
ON HOW MUCH CLEARING OCCURS OVERNIGHT AND HOW MUCH RAIN FALLS THIS
EVENING. HAVE PLENTY OF MVFR IN THE TAFS BUT HELD BACK ON IFR
FOR NOW. UPDATES CAN REASSESS THE SITUATION.

CONDITIONS WILL LIKELY BE SLOW TO IMPROVE WEDNESDAY MORNING WITH
LIGHT WINDS IN PLACE. KEPT MVFR GOING THROUGH 18Z EXCEPT AT SBY.

OUTLOOK...NO APPRECIABLE CHANGE IN THE WX PATTERN IS EXPECTED FOR
THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. CHC FOR TSTMS WEDNESDAY AFTN WILL BE
HIGHEST OVER ORF/ECG...WITH ANOTHER CHANCE FOR TSTMS AGAIN ON
THURSDAY AFTERNOON. SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM CHANCES INCREASE
ACROSS THE AREA FOR FRIDAY AND SATURDAY AS A MORE SUBSTANTIAL LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM IMPACTS THE MID ATLANTIC REGION.

&&

.MARINE...
NO MARINE HEADLINES NEC FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS. WEAK FRNTAL BNDRY
CURRENTLY STALLED OVER NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA WILL REMAIN
FAIRLY STATIONARY AND SLOWLY DISSIPATE THRU WED. WEAK PRES GRADIENT
ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRNT CONTINUES SO WINDS MAINLY S/SW AOB 10 KT...
UP TO AROUND 15 KT AT TIMES. WAVES 1-2 FT AND SEAS 2-3 FT. S/SW
WINDS SLOWLY INCREASE THU-FRI-SAT AHEAD OF THE NEXT (STRONGER)
COLD FRNT WITH MARGINAL SCA CONDITIONS POSSIBLE. SEAS WILL BUILD
FROM 3-4 FT FRI NGT TO 4-6 FT SAT. THE FROPA OCCURS LATE SAT/SAT
NGT. QUIET MARINE CONDITIONS RETURN SUN THRU TUE AS SFC HI PRES
BLDS IN FROM THE WEST BEHIND THE FRNT.
