AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
407 PM EDT THU JUL 5 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A HOT UPPER HIGH WILL CONTINUE OOZING EAST THROUGH THE WEEKEND. AN
UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE COMBINED WITH WEAK UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES
AND THUNDERSTORM OUTFLOW WILL KEEP RAIN IN THE FORECAST THROUGH
THE WEEKEND. A COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED AT THE BEGINNING OF NEXT
WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 330 PM EDT THURSDAY...

WILL BE CANCELING WEST VA COUNTIES FROM THE WATCH...AND COUNTIES
JUST TO THE SOUTH IN SW VA CAN BE CLEARED SOON. CONSIDERING THE
AIRMASS IS UNTOUCHED ALONG THE EASTERN FRINGE OF THE WATCH...WILL
LET IT GO FOR NOW. THICKER CLOUDS HAVE STAYED JUST WEST OF ROANOKE
AND SOME ISOLATED CELLS ARE DEVELOPING NEARBY ALONG THE
SOUTHEASTERLY MOVING OUTFLOW BOUNDARY ATTM. ONCE LINE GETS THROUGH
NW NC THE SEVERE THREAT WILL HAVE ENDED AND IS PRETTY MUCH FINISHED
ACROSS EXTREME SW VA. ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT ACROSS SOUTHERN
MICHIGAN RIGHT NOW...AND THIS DEVELOPING CLUSTER MAY JOG A LITTLE
FURTHER EAST...IN A SSE DIRECTION INTO LATE THIS EVENING. AIRMASS
HAS BEEN STABILIZED ACROSS MUCH OF WEST VA SO THIS CLUSTER MAY HIT A
WALL IF IT TRIES TO CROSS. ANY CLUSTERS THOUGH WHICH TAKE MORE OF AN
EASTERLY ROUTE THROUGH WESTERN PA AND THEN INTO NORTHERN VA AND THE
WEST VA PANHANDLE MAY POSE A THREAT TO THE SOUTHERN SHENANDOAH AND
CLOSER TO THE SPINE OF THE BLUE RIDGE IN VIRGINIA LATE TONIGHT.
STILL HAS A LONG WAY TO GO THOUGH.

WHATEVER COMES OUT OF PENNSYLVANIA LATE TONIGHT AGAIN MAY SERVE AS A
FOCUS FOR STORMS ON FRIDAY...ALTHOUGH STEERING WINDS FIELDS ARE
WEAKER AND MORE DISPARATE THAN TODAY. THUS PLACED HIGHEST POPS ALONG
NW NC AND EXTREME SW VA FOR NOW...ALTHOUGH CONFIDENCE IS LOW
CONSIDERING POOR PERFORMANCE OF THE LOCAL MODELS WITH REGARDS TO
TODAY'S EVENT. TEMPS SHOULD BE SIMILAR FRIDAY PERHAPS A FEW DEGREES
WARMER WITH H85 TEMPS NEAR 24C. ANOTHER HEAT ADVISORY MAY BE
NECESSARY ACROSS THE EXTREME SE. THE SOUTHSIDE AND NC PIEDMONT
SHOULD CROSS 100F AGAIN WITH HEAT INDICES NEAR 105F.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 400 PM THURSDAY...

HEAT RIDGE WILL BE BUILDING IN AGAIN FROM THE WEST FRI-SAT...WITH A
BACK DOOR FRONT DROPPING SWD SUNDAY. OUR AREA FRI-SAT WILL BE MAINLY
DEALING WITH ISOLATED TO SCATTERED CONVECTION IN THE
AFTERNOON/EVENING UNTIL THE FRONT ENTERS FROM THE NORTH ENHANCING
CHANCES SUNDAY. MCS ACTIVITY APPEARS TO STAY NORTH PER RIDGE AXIS
EXTENDING WEST TO EAST INTO THE CENTRAL APPALACHIANS MID ATLANTIC. A
POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR SHORTWAVE INDUCED MCS ARRIVES TOWARD
SUNDAY...BUT OVERALL ITS TOO EARLY TO SAY WHERE THIS WILL SET UP.

SO FOR POPS...KEPT IT LOW FRI-SAT PER HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT INHIBITING
SOME DEVELOPMENT...AND WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE STORMS FIRE UP
TOWARD THE EVENING WHEN THE CAP BREAKS. STILL LOOKING AT MUCH OF THE
AREA STAYING HOT AND DRY.

WITH THE FRONT SHIFTING SWD INTO LATE WEEKEND THE FLOW WILL BECOMING
MORE WEST AND THE HEAT IMPACT WILL STAY UP. THE DEWPOINTS MAY DROP
EAST OF THE MTNS...BUT LEE TROUGH IN THE PIEDMONT COULD KEEP HIGHER
DEWPOINTS PULLED PER SW FLOW. POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR HEAT ADVISORY
FRI-SAT IN THE PIEDMONT PER HIGHS AROUND THE CENTURY MARK.

HEADING INTO SUNDAY...THE FORECAST WILL DEPEND ON FRONTAL BOUNDARY
AND SHORTWAVES SUPPORTING ENHANCED CONVECTION. WILL KEEP CHANCES
AFTER MIDDAY WITH 30/40 POPS...PENDING BETTER MODEL AGREEMENT. WITH
SOME ORGANIZATION POSSIBLE...TEMPS MAY BE IMPACTED FROM CLOUDINESS
FROM UPSTREAM CONVECTION...SO WENT A LITTLE COOLER THAN FRI-SAT BUT
WILL STILL BE HOTTER THAN NORMAL WITH UPPER 80S WEST TO  UPPER 90S
EAST...AS OPPOSED TO WIDESPREAD 90S TO AROUND 100 FRI-SAT...OUTSIDE
THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS. SEE CLIMATE SECTION BELOW FOR A LIST OF
RECORD HIGHS FOR JULY 6TH AND 7TH.

SUNDAY NIGHT...NOT CHANGING POPS AS THE NEW 00Z ECMWF AND GFS
SHOWING FRONTAL BOUNDARY SLOWING WITH POSSIBLE MCS PUSHING IN.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 400 PM EDT THURSDAY...

MODELS/ENSEMBLES REMAIN AGREEABLE WITH THE LARGE SCALE PATTERN BUT
DISPLAY SOME DETAIL DIFFS THAT TYPICALLY HAVE LOW PREDICTABILITY.
EXPECT A MEAN RIDGE ALOFT TO PRESIDE OVER THE ROCKIES AND VICINITY
WHILE  ALASKA MAY REACH WRN CANADA AND UPSTREAM FLOW STREAMS INTO
THE OVERALL TROF.  MEANWHILE TROFFING WILL SETTLE OVER THE NERN
QUADRANT OF THE NATION DAYS 3-5 SUN-TUE... WITH DIFFS IN TROF
AMPLITUDE IMPACTING THE EXACT LATITUDE OF THE LEADING SFC FRONT.
GUIDANCE IS NOW INDICATING THAT THE STRONG RIDGE OVER THE ATLC MAY
TRY TO BUILD WWD BY WED-THU... SERVING TO WEAKEN THE NERN TROF ALOFT
AND STALL THE SFC FRONT.  THE ERN PART OF THE FRONT MAY EVEN BEGIN
TO LIFT NWD AS A WARM FRONT LATE NEXT WEEK.

UPPER RIDGE RETROGRADES WEST AND TROUGHING DEVELOPS OVER THE ERN
CONUS THIS PERIOD. MODELS REMAIN CONSISTENT THAT COOL DOWN WILL TAKE
PLACE FOR EARLY NEXT WEEK...SHAVING ABOUT 10 DEG C OFF THE 85H
TEMP AND TRIMMING SFC TEMPS TO A MORE TOLERABLE LEVEL.

SFC FRONT IS PROGGED TO SAG SOUTHWARD THROUGH THE REGION MONDAY.
THE BIG QUESTION...AS IS ALWAYS THE CASE AT THIS TIME OF THE
YEAR...IS HOW FAR SOUTH THIS FRONT WILL DRIFT BEFORE STALLING.
LONG RANGE MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT ON THE FRONT PUSHING INTO
GA/SC EARLY NEXT WEEK...WITH DIFFERING SOLUTIONS ON WHETHER THE
DEEPER MOISTURE CLEARS THE CWA.

FOR NOW WILL MAINTAIN CHANCE POPS THROUGH THE DURATION OF THE
EXTENDED WITH HIGHEST COVERAGE MONDAY VCNTY OF THE FRONT. IF
FRONT MOVES FAR ENOUGH SOUTH OF THE FCST AREA...MAY BE ABLE TO
TRIM POPS COMPLETELY FOR MID WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 142 PM EDT THURSDAY...

IMPRESSIVE BOW ECHO ON TOP OF BLF...WITH POTENTIAL GUSTS TO 60KTS
OVER THE NEXT 20 MINUTES. ISOLATED STORMS MAY ALSO FROM AHEAD OF
THE MAIN LINE TO BCB/ROA ALTHOUGH THE MAIN LINE MAY JUST MISS TO
THE SW. LWB ALSO APPEARS TO HAVE ESCAPED THE STRONGEST PUNCH OF
WINDS ATTM. FURTHER EAST LYH/DAN MAY DEAL WITH ISOLATED STORMS
LATER THIS AFTERNOON. FIGURES TO BE A BREAK IN THE ACTION LATE
THIS AFTERNOON...WITH POTENTIALLY MORE STORMS THIS EVENING AS
ANOTHER CLUSTER IS MOVING SOUTH OFF OF LAKE ERIE. THIS CLUSTER MAY
MOVE A LITTLE FURTHER EAST TONIGHT THAN CURRENT LINE. WET GROUND
AT LWB/BLF MAKES IFR VIS/CIG MORE LIKELY THAN USUAL. MORE
THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE FRIDAY...AND WILL BE WATCHING FOR ANY
CLUSTERS MOVING SOUTH OUT OF PENNSYLVANIA POSSIBLY AFFECTING
CENTRAL AND WESTERN VA.

THE GENERAL WEATHER PATTERN IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST INTO THE
WEEKEND...WITH SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING WITH DAYTIME
HEATING...AND GRADUALLY DIMINISHING AFTER SUNSET AS HEATING ENDS.
THE OTHER CONCERN WILL BE PATCHES OF FOG DEVELOPING DURING THE
EARLY MORNING HOURS...ESPECIALLY IN THE RIVER VALLEYS OF THE
MOUNTAINS AND ACROSS AREAS WHICH RECEIVED SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL
DURING THE PREVIOUS TWENTY FOUR HOUR PERIOD. A STRONGER MORE
IMPACTFUL SYSTEM AND COLD FRONT LOOKS TO IMPACT THE AREA BY LATE
SUNDAY INTO MONDAY.
