AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
346 PM EDT SUN SEP 2 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
THE REMNANTS OF ISAAC WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT THE WEATHER ACROSS
THE REGION FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS AS THEY DRIFT EAST ACROSS THE
CENTRAL APPALACHIANS. WITH DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE LINGERING ACROSS
THE REGION...EXPECT WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH
LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN THROUGH AT LEAST MID- WEEK. DRIER AIR WILL
FINALLY PUSH INTO THE AREA BY LATE IN THE WEEK AS A SERIES OF COLD
FRONTS DROP SOUTHEAST INTO THE REGION.
&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 325 PM EDT SUNDAY...

SHOWERS AND STORMS CONTINUE TO DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON IN THE HEATING
OF THE DAY WITHIN A MOISTURE RICH ATMOSPHERE AND CONTINUE INTO THE
EARLY EVENING. THE GREATEST CONCENTRATION OF PRECIPITATION WILL EAST OF
INTERSTATE 81 AND ALONG AND SOUTH OF VIRGINIA ROUTE 460 BETWEEN
ROANOKE AND BUCKINGHAM. LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN AND GUSTY WINDS WILL BE
POSSIBLE WITH THE HEAVIER STORMS. LIKE LAST NIGHT...WE ARE EXPECTED
COVERAGE TO WANE AFTER SUNSET. A DIFFERENCE TONIGHT WILL BE A
PROGRESSIVELY MORE SOUTHEAST FLOW DEVELOPING. THIS WILL YIELD TO AN
UPSLOPE MOISTURE TRANSPORT AND A FOCUS FOR CONTINUING SHOWERS ALONG
AND NEAR THE CREST OF THE BLUE RIDGE. ANOTHER RELATIVELY MILD NIGHT
IS EXPECTED THANKS TO THE MOIST CONDITIONS. LOWS WILL RANGE FROM THE
MID 60S TO AROUND 70 IN THE MOUNTAINS TO THE LOWER 70S EAST OF THE
CREST OF THE BLUE RIDGE.

ON LABOR DAY...BOTH THE PREVAILING...AND INCREASING...SOUTHEAST FLOW
INTO THE CREST OF THE BLUE RIDGE...AND DIURNAL HEATING WILL
CONTRIBUTE TO ANOTHER DAY OF SHOWERS AND STORMS SPREAD ACROSS THE
AREA. THE GREATEST CONCENTRATION WILL BE ALONG THE CREST OF THE BLUE
RIDGE AND JUST TO THE EAST. PRECIPITATION AMOUNTS ALONG THE CREST OF
THE BLUE RIDE WILL BE AROUND AN INCH...WITH AMOUNTS ELSEWHERE
AVERAGING TWO TO FOUR TENTHS. HIGH TEMPERATURES FOR MOST PARTS OF
THE AREA WILL RANGE FROM THE LOW TO MID 80S. THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS
OF NORTH CAROLINA WILL HAVE TEMPERATURES REACHING THE UPPER 70S.
&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 250 PM EDT SUNDAY...

NOT A LOT OF CHANGE TO THE THINKING FROM YDA WITH THE UPPER VORT
REMNANT OF ISSAC SPLITTING OFF TO THE SW OF THE AREA MON NIGHT/TUE
AND THE SFC WAVE IN THE SRN OHIO VALLEY. THIS SHOULD ALLOW FOR THE
DEEPEST TROPICAL PWATS TO ADVECT IN ON SOUTHERLY FLOW MONDAY NIGHT
WITH FOCUS AIDED BY THE RESIDUAL FRONT STALLED ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS.
GOOD UPPER DIFFLUENCE TO THE NE OF THE UPPER LOW AND THEN BETTER
LIFT ALONG THE ASSOCIATED SHEAR AXIS SHOULD INITIALLY COMBO WITH
HEATING TO PRODUCE MORE WIDESPREAD SHRA/TSRA INCLUDING HEAVY RAIN
MONDAY EVENING...WITH THIS BAND LIKELY LINGERING ALONG THE BLUE
RIDGE INTO TUESDAY. FORECAST SOUNDINGS ALSO SHOW A GOOD SETUP FOR
HEAVY RAIN AND PERHAPS SOME TRAINING WITH GOOD LOW LEVEL VEERING AND
UNIDIRECTIONAL MID LEVEL FLOW ABOVE. THUS RUNNING WITH HIGH LIKLEYS
IN THE WEST INTO MONDAY EVENING...DIMINISHING A BIT ESPCLY OUT EAST
OVERNIGHT...THEN INCREASING TO HIGH POPS AGAIN TUESDAY AS THE
SETUP REMAINS ANCHORED BETWEEN THE VORT TO THE SW AND THE SURFACE
LOW TO THE NORTH. HOWEVER WILL JUST KEEP MENTION IN THE HWO FOR
NOW AND NOT UPGRADE TO A WATCH FOR 3RD/4TH PERIODS GIVEN CURRENT
DRY ANTECEDENT CONDITONS AND SCTD NATURE TO CONVECTION. TEMPS
CLOSE TO PREVIOUS WITH ENOUGH HEATING TO PUSH HIGHS BACK TO 75-80
WEST AND MID 80S SE TUESDAY.

SUPPORT SLOWLY BEGINS TO STRING OUT TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WED AS THE
REMNANT SURFACE WAVE EXITS TO THE NE AND THE UPPER LOW SINKS FARTHER
SOUTH. IN BETWEEN EXPECT LEFTOVER TROPICAL JUICE TO KEEP SOME BANDS
OF SHRA GOING TUESDAY NIGHT AND THEN A RENEWED ROUND ESPCLY BLUE
RIDGE WED WITH HEATING. SOME GUIDANCE NOT QUITE AS MOIST BY WED
AFTERNOON WITH WEAK WESTERLY FLOW PUSHING EAST ALOFT SO NOT
EXPECTING AS MUCH COVERAGE BUT STILL SOME HEAVY RAINERS AROUND.
TEMPS ALSO A BIT WARMER DURING WED GIVEN MORE BREAKS SO BUMPED
HIGHS INTO THE LOW/MID 80S OVERALL.
&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 1230 PM EDT SUNDAY...

DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE ASSOCIATED WITH THE REMNANT OF ISAAC WILL
FINALLY GET BOOTED SE DURING THURSDAY AHEAD OF AN INTIAL WEAK COLD
FRONT THAT WILL DROPPING SE IN ADVANCE OF A DEVELOPING ERN 5H TROF.
HOWEVER STILL ENOUGH LIFT WITH THE RESIDUAL SHEAR AXIS AND WEAK
SURFACE TROF TO PROMPT ADDITIONAL SHRA WED NIGHT WITH PERHAPS YET
ANOTHER ORGANIZED BAND ESPCLY EAST ON THURSDAY. THUS KEPT IN HIGH
CHANCE POPS INTO THURSDAY WHICH MAY NEED TO GO HIGHER IN LATER
UPDATES. BOUNDARY MAY TEND TO EDGE SOUTH OF THE AREA DURING FRIDAY
BEFORE THE FLOW STARTS TO BACK AGAIN AHEAD OF A MORE POTENT WAVE
ROUNDING THRU THE GREAT LAKES COLD POOL SAT. THIS FEATURE SHOULD
PUSH A STRONGER SECONDARY COLD FRONT TOWARD THE APPALACHIANS SAT
NIGHT INTO SUNDAY WITH A ANOTHER ROUND OF SHRA/TSRA AS DEEPER
MOISTURE MAKES A QUICK RETURN. JUST HOW FAST THE FRONT MOVES EAST
IFFY GIVEN HINT OF A 5H CUTOFF DEVELOPING OVER THE OHIO VALLEY BY
SUNDAY SO FOLLOWING A BIT OF A BLEND GIVEN UNCERTAINTY NEXT WEEKEND.
OTRW APPEARS ENOUGH DRYING TO BASICALLY CUT POPS LATER THU NIGHT
THRU FRIDAY NIGHT...THEN RETURNING TO CHANCE COVERAGE FROM WEST TO
EAST LATER SATURDAY THRU SUNDAY. TEMPS TO REMAIN WARM/MUGGY THU WITH
HIGHS MOSTLY IN THE 80S INTO FRIDAY ALTHOUGH A BIT LESS HUMID. MAY
SEE THINGS COOL OFF SOME WITH SHRA SAT BUT MORESO SUNDAY PENDING THE
FRONTAL TIMING WITH HIGHS LOW/MID 70S WEST AND LOW 80S EAST.
&&

.AVIATION /20Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
OVERALL PATTERN IS VERY SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY. REMNANTS OF ISAAC ARE
DOING A SIT AND SPIN OVER THE OHIO VALLEY...WHICH LEAVES OUR AREA IN
DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF TRYING TO TIME A FEW
WEAK SHORT WAVES MOVING THROUGH...THERE IS NOTHING TO HANG YOUR HAT
ON TO FOCUS CONVECTION. THUS...EXPECT CURRENT RADAR TRENDS TO
CONTINUE SHOWING DEVELOPMENT OVER THE RIDGES AND MOVING EASTWARD
INTO THIS EVENING. WITH DEEP MOISTURE...ANY SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD BE COPIOUS RAIN PRODUCERS.

EXPECT MAIN CONVECTION TO WANE AFTER SUNDOWN WITH RESIDUAL LIGHT
SHOWERS AND SPRINKLES LINGERING FOR THE OVERNIGHT. DO NOT BELIEVE
THERE WILL BE ENOUGH COVERAGE TO WARRANT A MENTION IN THE TAFS BUT
THIS MAY CHANGE DEPENDING ON THE EVOLUTION OF THE AFTERNOON AND
EVENING PRECIPITATION. LWB...BLF...AND BCB LOOK TO FOG IN WITH LOW
STRATUS AGAIN TONIGHT AND MODEL SOUNDINGS INDICATE A BIT MORE LOW
LEVEL MOISTURE FOR ROA...LYH...AND DAN AS WELL. WILL BRING THE
HAMMER DOWN FOR LWB...BLF...AND BCB BUT WILL NOT BE SO AGGRESSIVE
AT THE OTHER LOCATIONS.

EXPECT ANOTHER ROUND OF CONVECTION TOMORROW LATE IN THE PERIOD AND
WILL TRY TO TIME A SHORT WAVE MOVING IN FROM THE EAST WITH A MENTION
OF VCSH FOR LWB...BLF...AND BCB. EXPECT WINDS TO REMAIN ON THE LIGHT
SIDE THROUGH THE PERIOD.

TROPICAL PATTERN WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THURSDAY WITH THE
REMNANTS OF ISAAC SLOWLY APPROACHING THE AREA. ANTICIPATE
PRIMARILY VFR CONDITIONS WITH BRIEF IFR/MVFR CONDITIONS UNDER ANY
STRONGER SHOWERS OR STORMS. LATE NIGHT AND EARLY MORNING IFR/MVFR
MOUNTAIN AND RIVER VALLEY FOG IS ALSO EXPECTED.

BY THURSDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY FRIDAY...A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL SWEEP
THROUGH THE AREA WITH A SURGE OF DRIER AIR BEHIND IT BY FRIDAY.
