AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
640 AM EDT MON OCT 29 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
REMAINS OF SANDY COMBINES WITH A STRONG MID AND UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM
TO IMPACT THE AREA THROUGH THURSDAY WITH STRONG WINDS...RAIN...AND
HEAVY WET SNOW. HEAVIEST PRECIPITATION LATE TODAY INTO TUESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
WILL CONTINUE TO HIGHLIGHT THE INCREASING WIND AND MOUNTAIN
SNOW...WITH THE CURRENT BLIZZARD WARNING AND WIND ADVISORY FOR THE
LOWLANDS.

YET...IT IS NEVER EASY IN THESE RARE HISTORIC EVENTS.  TWO ISSUES
NEED NOT TO BE FORGOTTEN...TOTAL RAIN AMOUNTS AND POSSIBLE STREAM
OVERFLOW...AND WHEN AND HOW MUCH WET SNOW REACHES DOWN TO THE
WESTERN LOWLANDS.

WE WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR RAIN TOTALS...THAT MAY EVENTUALLY LEAD
TO SOME STREAM OVERFLOW BEYOND THIS FRAME...BUT THEN AGAIN...IT
COULD CHANGE TO WET SNOW.  THE HEAVIEST RAINS SINCE SUNDAY HAVE BEEN
TOWARD THE HTS TRI STATE.  YET...WE ARE THINKING THE HEAVIEST LATER
TODAY AND TONIGHT SHOULD BE TOWARD THE NORTHERN LOWLANDS AND NOT THE
HTS VICINITY. SO NO FLOOD WATCHES POSTED IN THE EARLY MORNING
RELEASE.

THE SECOND ISSUE LURKING UNDER THE BIGGER HEADLINES...IS THE WET
SNOW FOR THE LOWLANDS. THE 00Z GFS 850 MB TEMPERATURES ARE THE
WARMEST COMPARED TO THE 00Z NAM AND ECMWF.  TRENDED TOWARD THE
COLDER 850 MB TEMPERATURES AND INCLUDE SOME HILLTOPS WHITENING IN
THE TRI STATE AND SRN WV LOWLANDS TONIGHT. THIS ALSO KEEPS
TEMPERATURES AOB 32 DEGREES TODAY FOR ELEVATIONS AOA 3000 FEET.
THE BIG QUESTION IS...THE TIMING AND HOW FAR NORTH DOES THE SNOW GET
TO REACH THE GROUND...FOR AREAS LIKE EKN AND CKB.  I HELD ONTO RAIN
THERE TODAY...WITH MORE OF A MIXTURE DEVELOPING TONIGHT...SINCE I AM
A BIT COLDER.  NEEDLESS TO SAY...AN EVOLVING SITUATION.

WE STILL WANTED TO STRESS ELEVATIONS AOA 2000 FEET...WHICH INCLUDES
THE MAJOR TOWN (FOR WV) OF BECKLEY...THE WEST VIRGINIA
TURNPIKE...FOR THE SNOW.  WE ALSO CONTINUE WITH THE BLOWING SNOW FOR
THE HIGH TERRAIN.

HAVE WIND GUSTS OF 30 TO 40 KNOTS AFTER 18Z TODAY INTO THIS EVENING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW THE REMAINS OF SANDY MOVING WESTWARD THROUGH
SOUTHERN PA/EASTERN MD BEFORE HEADING NORTH THROUGH NY INTO CANADA
THROUGH MID WEEK.

CONCERNS STILL REMAIN ABOUT THE THERMAL PROFILE...ESPECIALLY IN THE
BOUNDARY LAYER...AND EVEN SMALL CHANGES WILL HAVE DRASTIC IMPACTS ON
SNOWFALL AT LOWER ELEVATIONS. MODELS SHOWING A VERY INTERESTING
TEMPERATURE ADVECTION PROFILE...WITH COLD FLOWING IN ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN CWA...HITTING THE MOUNTAINS AND SPREADING NORTH IN A FAIRLY
NARROW TONGUE. ALL THE WHILE...WARM AIR ADVECTION ONGOING ACROSS
NORTH CENTRAL AND NORTHWEST CWA REDUCING SNOW CHANCES THERE.
INTERESTINGLY...06Z NAM JUST ROLLING IN AND AT A QUICK GLANCE...850
TEMPS LOOK COOLER. FOR NOW STAYED NEAR TO JUST BELOW 00Z MOS ACROSS
THE LOWLANDS WITH THE WARMEST TEMPS IN NW CORNER OF CWA...AND THEN
WENT SEVERAL DEGREES BELOW GUIDANCE IN THE MOUNTAINS. OF
NOTE...DROPPED OVERNIGHT TEMPS A BIT IN LOCATIONS LIKE
ELKINS...RESULTING IN A LITTLE MORE SNOW MIXING IN. CURRENT
BLIZZARD HEADLINES LOOK GOOD.

STILL LOOKS LIKE THE WINDS ACROSS THE LOWLANDS WILL BE DECREASING
BELOW ADVISORY CRITERIA THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON...SO NO CHANGES
MADE TO WIND ADVISORY.

NEXT CONCERN IN THE BAG IS FLOOD THREAT...ESPECIALLY ACROSS NORTH
CENTRAL CWA. GENERALLY THINKING 3-5 INCHES OF PRECIP FOR THE I-79
CORRIDOR EAST INTO THE MOUNTAINS. GRANTED PRECIP IN THE MOUNTAINS
WILL FALL AS SNOW SO NO IMMEDIATE FLOOD THREAT THERE. A LITTLE
TRICKIER AROUND I-79 WHERE SHOULD SPEND MORE TIME AS RAIN. QPF
FORECAST IS NEAR TO JUST ABOVE 24 HOUR FLASH FLOOD
GUIDANCE...HOWEVER IS ALSO SPREAD OVER MUCH MORE THAN 24 HOURS. WITH
THIS IN MIND...WILL CONTINUE MENTION IN HWO BUT NOT ISSUE FLOOD
HEADLINE AT THIS TIME.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
REMNANTS OF SANDY FINALLY DEPART INTO NEW ENGLAND/QUEBEC WITH SLOW
RECOVERY TO THE HEIGHT AND PRESSURE FIELDS. UPSLOPE/NORTHWEST FLOW
PRECIPITATION WILL ALSO COME TO AN END FOR THE FIRST PART OF THE
LONG TERM...AND WILL LARGELY BE DRY FOR THE END OF THE WEEK AND THE
WEEKEND. TEMPERATURES WILL ALSO RECOVER WITH RIDGING TO THE WEST.
WILL NOT BE ABLE TO EJECT THE NEW ENGLAND/ATLANTIC CANADA TROUGH
LEFT OVER FROM SANDY...WHICH WILL KEEP THE AFOREMENTIONED RIDGE AT
BAY OVER THE MIDWEST. THIS TRANSLATES INTO TEMPERATURES COMING UP
JUST SHORT OF NORMAL FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR THIS WEEKEND. MAY SEE A
WARM FRONT PUSH INTO THE MIDDLE OHIO VALLEY SUNDAY...AND HAVE
BROUGHT SLIGHTS INTO THE EQUATION FOR THIS TIME PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION /12Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
NO MAJOR CHANGES IN THE 12Z SET OF TAFS.  SEPARATE AREA OF RAIN/SNOW
CONTINUES TO FORM NORTH OF 500 MB LOW IN SW VIRGINIA AND ADVECT NW.

SNOW LEVELS MAYBE AROUND 1500 FEET ACROSS OUR SOUTHERN MOUNTAINS AT
10Z MONDAY.  SURFACE AND LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL BE INCREASING
THROUGHOUT THE DAY...REACHING SURFACE GUSTS OF 30 TO 40 KNOTS AFTER
18Z.

WIDESPREAD CEILINGS AOB 1 THSD FT BKN AND VSBY AROUND 3 MILES IN
RAIN FOR THE LOWER ELEVATIONS...BUT BLO 3 MILES IN SNOW FOR
ELEVATIONS MOSTLY AOA 2000 FEET.  BLOWING SNOW AND OCNL BLIZZARD
CONDITIONS LIKELY VCNTY OF BKW AFTER 21Z.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 12Z TUESDAY...

FORECAST CONFIDENCE: MEDIUM.

ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: CEILING HEIGHTS AND VSBY MAY IMPROVE MORE THAN
INDICATED FOR BRIEF PERIODS DURING THE DAYLIGHT HOURS ON MONDAY.
TIMING TRANSITIONS TO SNOW VCNTY OF EKN MAY VARY.  ALSO A CHANGE
OVER TO WET SNOW AT THE HILLTOP AIRPORTS AT HTS AND CRW MAY OCCUR
JUST ABOUT ANY TIME SINCE FREEZING LEVEL JUST OFF THE GROUND.
