AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
534 PM EDT MON MAY 14 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A FEW AREAS OF LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE NORTHEAST ALONG A SLOW
MOVING FRONT OVER THE APPALACHIANS. THIS BOUNDARY WILL BE THE
FOCUS FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ON TUESDAY. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL SLOWLY MOVE THROUGH THE UPPER OHIO VALLEY THROUGH
THE REST OF THIS WEEK THEN SETTLE ACROSS NEW ENGLAND BY THIS
WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 530 PM EDT MONDAY...

QUICK UPDATE TO RAISE POPS BACK TO LIKELYS OR CATEGORICAL ESPCLY
ALONG AND WEST OF THE BLUE RIDGE WHERE STORMS WITH VERY HEAVY RAIN
HAVE DEVELOPED PRIMARILY IN NW NC. WONT RAISE ANOTHER FLASH FLOOD
WATCH AT THIS POINT BUT WILL CONSIDER PENDING HOW MUCH THE
COVERAGE FILLS BACK IN OVER THE SOUTH AHEAD OF THE NEXT WEAK WAVE
ALOFT MOVING ALONG THE FRONT.

AS OF 330 PM EDT MONDAY....

SOME WARM ADVECTION ACROSS THE SOUTHWESTERN HALF OF THE CWA LATER
THIS AFTERNOON HAS LED TO A BROKEN SKY WITH SOME SUNNY
BREAKS. THERE IS ENOUGH INSTABILITY FOR SHOWERS TO DEVELOP...AND
SOME THUNDERSTORMS...ALTHOUGH THIS MORNINGS RAIN HAD LIMITED MUCH
CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON. OPERATIONAL GFS/NAM ARE BULLISH WITH
REGARDS TO QPF TONIGHT...BUT SEEM TO BE WAY OVERDONE CONSIDERING
COVERAGE OF SHOWERS ATTM. LOCAL MODELS ARE DRIER AND SEEM TO BE
CATCHING ONTO THE SLOW WET BIAS OF THE OPERATIONAL MODELS DURING
THIS ENTIRE EVENT. SHOWERS LATE THIS PM AND THIS EVENING WILL
REMAIN SCATTERED...ALTHOUGH ANOTHER DISTURBANCE RIDING ALONG THE
FRONT MAY KEEP SHOWERS AND STORMS MORE NUMEROUS ACROSS THE
SOUTHSIDE AND PIEDMONT THIS EVENING. SHOWERS END WEST OF THE BLUE
RIDGE TONIGHT WITH LOSS OF HEATING AND THEN IN THE WEST AS THE
DISTURBANCE DEPARTS INTO TUESDAY MORNING. WEAK BOUNDARY REMAINS
OVERHEAD INTO TUESDAY...AND WITH MORE SUNSHINE AND AN UPSLOPE
COMPONENT TO THE SOUTHERLY FLOW...SHOWERS AND STORMS SHOULD BUILD
IN THE AFTERNOON ON TUESDAY...PERHAPS SOME OF THEM SLOW MOVERS
PUTTING DOWN A QUICK HALF INCH TO AN INCH OF RAINFALL. SHOULD BE A
WARMER DAY WIT SOME PARTLY SUNNY PERIODS...ESPECIALLY IN THE LATE
MORNING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 245 PM EDT MONDAY...

LOOKING A SFC FRONT WORKING SLOWLY EAST ACROSS THE PIEDMONT TUESDAY
EVENING WITH SHORTWAVE ENERGY PUSHING NE FROM THE GULF COAST STATES
INTO VIRGINIA. ONCE ONE SHORTWAVE PASSES OVERNIGHT...THE FRONT WILL
WORK OUT OF THE FORECAST AREA AND WE SHOULD START TO SEE SOME DRYING
FROM WEST TO EAST. WE WILL STILL SEE LINGERING ISOLATED SHOWERS IN
THE PIEDMONT INTO WEDNESDAY AS YET ANOTHER SHORTWAVE SWINGS IN FROM
GEORGIA NORTHEAST INTO THE CAROLINAS THRU THE DAY. WITH A SFC WAVE
MOVING ALONG THE FRONT...THE PRECIP CHANCES MAY INCREASE AGAIN INTO
THE PIEDMONT...ALTHOUGH THE OVERALL THREAT WILL BE LOW < 30
PERCENT...AS MODELS SHOW MAIN THREAT STAYING ACROSS THE COASTAL
PLAINS. LOWS TUE NIGHT WILL STILL BE MILD OUT EAST WITH UPPER
50S/NEAR 60 WHILE SKIES CLEARING IN THE WEST ALLOWS FOR SOME COOLER
AIR BUT WITH PLENTY OF GROUND MOISTURE...THINK AROUND 50 IS AS COLD
AS IT GETS. FOG WILL BE AN ISSUE WITH LIGHT WINDS/CLEARING SKIES AND
SATURATED GROUND ACROSS THE WV AND FAR SW VA MTNS. HIGHS WEDNESDAY
ARE GOING TO BE IN THE 70S...WITH MIX OF CLOUDS/SUN ESPECIALLY EAST.

JURY IS STILL OUT WEDNESDAY NIGHT WITH MOISTURE BEHIND FRONT AND
CLEARING. ATTM...THE FORECAST SOUNDINGS AND LOW LVL FLOW SUGGEST A
POTENTIAL FOR STRATUS FORMATION ALONG/EITHER SIDE OF THE BLUE RIDGE
AFTER MIDNIGHT. WILL BE INCREASING CLOUDS SOME TO ACCOUNT FOR
THIS...BUT WILL STILL BE A MOSTLY CLEAR TO PARTLY CLOUDY FORECAST.

HAVE IT MAINLY DRY THURSDAY WITH MODELS KEEPING DEEPER MOISTURE
ACROSS THE CAROLINAS/GEORGIA AND COAST. THE 12Z NAM/GFS KEEP THETA-E
AXIS FURTHER NORTH INTO THE SRN VA MTNS/NRN NC. MAY SEE SOME SHOWERS
OR STORMS FORMING ACROSS THE HIGH COUNTRY THU AFTN...WITH MOST AREA
STAYING DRY AS HIGH PRESSURE WORKS IN FROM THE ERN GREAT LAKES.
HIGHS AGAIN IN THE 70S.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF NOON EDT MONDAY...

NOT MUCH CHANGE TO THE EXTENDED EXCEPT SEEMS LESS CHANCE OF SHOWERS
WITH MODELS SHOWING UPPER SYSTEM WELL OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST THIS
WEEKEND. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE SITUATED ACROSS THE MID ATLANTIC
STATES...SOUTHEAST INTO THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS. TEMPERATURES THIS
PERIOD SHOULD BE AT OR ABOVE NORMAL. MAY SEE ENOUGH OF AN EASTERLY
FETCH FOR SOME STRATUS AT NIGHT...BUT THE FACT ITS A FEW DAYS AWAY
AND THE FLOW IS MORE NE...WILL KEEP SKIES CLEAR TO PARTLY CLOUDY
FRI NIGHT-SUN NIGHT.

GOING TO KEEP AMPLIFIED UPPER PATTERN INTO MONDAY WITH A CLOSED LOW
STAYING OFF THE EAST COAST AND NEXT SHORTWAVE DIGGING ACROSS THE
MIDWEST. A FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL MAKE IT TO THE OHIO VALLEY BY THE
END OF THE DAY MONDAY WITH SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHRA/TSRA ENTERING THE
WEST VIRGINIA/SW VA MOUNTAINS.

&&

.AVIATION /22Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 740 AM EDT MONDAY...

SHOWERS AND POSSIBLY A FEW STORMS MAY BUBBLE UP IN THE BKN CIGS
DEVELOPING ALONG THE BLF/JFZ/GEV/TNB CORRIDOR. WITH SOME OF THE
CLEARING WORKING NORTHEAST...THE IFR CIGS SHOULD BE REMOVED EVEN
AT KLYH LATER THIS AFTERNOON. IF CLEARING WORKS FAR ENOUGH
EAST...SOME STORMS MAY DEVELOP AT DAN LATE THIS PM. TONIGHT CLOUDS
WILL FILL BACK IN AND QUESTION WILL BE IF ENOUGH BREAKS DEVELOP
FOR LIFR VIS AT LWB/BCB TONIGHT CONSIDERING VERY MOIST LLVLS.
THINK THAT IFR CIGS THOUGH ARE A BETTER BET AT LWB/LYH/BCB AND
POSSIBLY THE OTHER TAF SITES. CIGS WILL IMPROVE SOMEWHAT TUESDAY
MORNING...AND WITH BREAKS IN THE CLOUDINESS ONCE AGAIN...POP UP
SHOWERS AND STORMS ARE POSSIBLE MOSTLY ALONG THE BLUE RIDGE AND WEST.

DRIER AIR SHOULD FINALLY WORK IN TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY
BRINGING A RETURN TO OVERALL VFR...ASIDE FROM ISOLATED SHOWERS
WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY. WIDESPREAD VFR THEN LOOKS TO PREVAIL BY
WEEKS END WITH HIGH PRESSURE EXTENDING SOUTH FROM THE MID ATLANTIC
REGION.
