AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
126 PM EDT FRI SEP 28 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL SAG SLOWLY SOUTH INTO THE AREA TONIGHT AND INTO
NORTH CAROLINA BY EARLY SATURDAY. THE FRONT WILL STALL OVER THE
CAROLINAS OVER THE WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. LOW PRESSURE WILL
MOVE FROM THE GULF COAST INTO THE CAROLINAS ON TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 945 AM EDT FRIDAY...

WAVE/VORT MOVING INTO SOUTHERN WVA ATTM THE MAIN PLAYER THIS
MORNING WITH BANDS OF SHRA/TSRA EXTENDING FROM AROUND THE SMALL
COMMA HEAD SOUTH INTO SW VA PER LATEST RADAR TRENDS. LATEST
GUIDANCE TAKES THIS IMPULSE NE ALONG THE FRONT INTO NORTH/CENTRAL
VA AND GRADUALLY DAMPENS IT THIS AFTERNOON AS THE SURFACE BOUNDARY
SAGS IN BY LATE IN THE DAY. EXPECT MUCH OF THE DEEPER CONVECTION
TO THE WEST TO WEAKEN PUSHING OUT EAST ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS GIVEN
LACK OF EARLY INSTABILITY BUT MAY BE ENOUGH SHRA/CLOUDS TO INHIBIT
HEATING THIS AFTERNOON. EXCEPTIONS LIKELY OVER THE FAR SOUTH AND
EAST WHERE DOWNSLOPING SEEN OFF MORNING RAOBS SHOULD ALLOW FOR
MORE BREAKS. HAVE ALREADY UPDATED TO BUMP POPS TO LIKELY A BIT
SOONER FAR WEST WHILE TRIMMING OUT EAST WHERE WILL STILL BE A FEW
HOURS PUSHING ANY SHRA OVER THE BLUE RIDGE. LEFT OVERALL LIKELY
POPS FOR MOST AREAS LATER IN THE AFTERNOON WHEN COMBO OF
WAVE/FRONT AND SOME HEATING SHOULD ALLOW FOR MORE WIDESPREAD SHRA
ACROSS THE CWA. TEMPS TRICKY AS EXPECT LITTLE IN THE WAY OF RISES
NW EARLY ON WHILE SEEING SOME SUN PIEDMONT AND FAR SOUTH.
THEREFORE BUMPED DOWN HIGHS IN THE WEST AND NORTH A FEW DEGREES
WHILE LEAVING THE EAST MOSTLY IN THE LOW 80S.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION AS OF 420 AM EDT FRIDAY...

COLD FRONT TRAILS FROM LOW IN WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA TO ANOTHER LOW
IN WESTERN KENTUCKY. WATER VAPOR LOOP SHOWS A WELL DEFINED SHORT
WAVE ASSOCIATED WITH THE KENTUCKY LOW. THIS FEATURE WILL TRACK
EAST TODAY...REACHING THE FORECAST AREA THIS AFTERNOON. EXPECT THE
FRONT TO REMAIN ALONG A DC TO WESTERN KENTUCKY LINE THROUGH THE
DAY WITH A SLIGHT PUSH TO THE SOUTH TONIGHT AFTER THE LOW GOES BY.

SIMILAR TO THE PAST COUPLE OF DAYS EXPECT CLUSTERS OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ALONG THE BOUNDARY TODAY AND TONIGHT. RADAR WAS
SHOWING SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS IN THE
WARM...MOIST AIR MASS AHEAD OF THE FRONT. LATEST RUC AND LOCAL WRF
DATA KEPT A MAJORITY OF THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IN THE
WESTERN COUNTY WARNING AREA THIS MORNING THEN MOVES A LINE OF
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA BETWEEN 19Z/3PM AND
01Z/9PM. HAVE ALIGNED PROBABILITY OF PRECIPITATION TO FOLLOW THIS
TIMING AND PLACEMENT.

ONCE THE STORMS EXIT THE AREA THIS EVENING...THE CHANCE OF
SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUES OVERNIGHT WITH THE
FRONT ENTERING THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL COUNTY WARNING AREA. CLOUD
COVER WILL GREATLY INFLUENCE THE INSTABILITY TODAY AND THE
LOCATIONS WITH THE HIGHEST POTENTIAL OF STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS.
WITH CLOUDS ALREADY SPREADING INTO THE WESTERN COUNTY WARNING
AREA...APPEARS THE BETTER THREAT FOR ANY SEVERE STORMS WILL BE IN
THE FOOTHILLS AND PIEDMONT WERE THERE WILL BE MORE HEATING AND
BETTER LAPSE RATES. WILL HIGHLIGHT THE SEVERE THREAT FOR THIS
REGION IN THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK.

WITH THE FOOTHILLS AND PIEDMONT GETTING MORE SUN THIS MORNING HAVE
USE THE WARMER GUIDANCE AS A BASIS FOR AFTERNOON HIGH
TEMPERATURES. CLOUDS WILL KEEP HIGHS SLIGHTLY COOLER IN THE WEST.
WILL ALSO KEEP MINIMUM TEMPERATURES TONIGHT ON THE MILD
SIDE...WITH MUCH OF THE FORECAST AREA STILL ON THE WARM SIDE OF
THE FRONT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 300 AM EDT FRIDAY...

AN UPPER LEVEL CLOSED OFF LOW WILL TRACK SOUTH FROM ONTARIO ON
SATURDAY TO NORTHWEST PENNSYLVANIA SUNDAY. THIS LOW WILL THEN TRACK
NORTHEAST OVER NEW YORK SUNDAY NIGHT. THIS LOW WILL MAINLY INFLUENCE
THE AREAS WEATHER BY KEEPING TEMPERATURES NEAR NORMAL ON SATURDAY
AND BELOW NORMAL SUNDAY. CAN NOT RULE OUT A STRAY MOUNTAIN SHOWERS AS
SHORT WAVES PIVOT AROUND THE LOW AND ACROSS THE APPALACHIANS.

MODELS ARE PAINTING SHOWERS ACROSS RNK SOUTH IN THE MORNING...THEN
IN THE PIEDMONT DURING THE AFTERNOON. AT FIRST...I DISREGARDED THESE
SHOWERS AS THE FRONT IS WELL SOUTH OF THE AREA AND THE SURFACE TO
LOW LEVEL FLOW IS NORTHERLY. IN FURTHER DISSECTING THE MODELS...THERE
IS AN 85H THETA-E BOUNDARY ALONG THE BLUE RIDGE FOR MUCH OF THE DAY.
FURTHERMORE...MID AND UPPER LEVEL JET STRUCTURE WOULD PROMOTE
SHOWERS TO FORM...ESPECIALLY IF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE IS SIGNIFICANT
ENOUGH. SO I AM CONVINCED SHOWERS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS THE SOUTH AND
EAST ON SATURDAY. HOWEVER...THINKING MODELS ARE OVER DONE ON
RAINFALL AMOUNTS WITH SOME DRIER AIR WORKING IN FROM THE NORTH.

THESE SHOWERS SHOULD FADE OR MOVE EAST OF THE AREA OVERNIGHT.
NEIGHBORING OFFICES IN THE EAST HAVE LOW CHANCE POPS FOR SUNDAY.
CONSIDERING THE FLIP-FLOP NATURE OF THE MODELS LATELY AND FORECAST
COLLABORATION...WILL ALSO HAVE LOW CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE PIEDMONT
SUNDAY. ANY SHOWERS WILL BE BRIEF AND THEREFORE LOOKING AT MORE OF A
DRY DAY. BY MONDAY MORNING...THE UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL TRACK TO THE
NORTHEAST AND HIGH PRESSURE FILLS IN BEHIND IT.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 300 PM EDT THURSDAY...

GFS IS DEFINITELY TRENDING TOWARD AN ECMWF SOLUTION NOW WITH MUCH
LESS AMPLITUDE WITH THE 500MB SHORT WAVE RIDING THROUGH THE UPPER
MIDWEST ON TUESDAY. PATTERN WILL ESSENTIALLY EVOLVE FROM A DEEP TROF
IN THE EAST ON SUNDAY TO A SPLIT FLOW REGIME BY MIDWEEK. HIGH
PRESSURE IS NOW PROGGED TO SET UP SHOP OFF THE COAST AND THIS WILL
BRING DEEP MOIST SLY FLOW INTO OUR AREA. ONE SURGE OF MOISTURE WILL
ARRIVE WITH A SHORT WAVE ON TUESDAY AND AGAIN ON THURSDAY WITH A BIT
OF A BREAK ON WEDNESDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 1245 PM EDT FRIDAY...

INITIAL BATCH OF SHOWERS AND ISOLATED STORMS NOW PUSHING OUT TO
EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE WITH GUSTY WINDS ASSOCIATED WITH THE
LEADING EDGE OF THE CONVECTION. THIS WILL CONTINUE TO BRING
PERIODS OF IFR/MVFR AT KLWB AND PERHAPS KLYH THRU 19Z/3 PM.
ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ACROSS THE
EAST WITH SOME OF THIS COVERAGE LIKELY AFFECTING KDAN THIS
AFTERNOON. EXPECTING TO REMAIN VFR AT ALL OTHER SITES AS THE
REGION BRIEFLY SLIDES INTO A BREAK BETWEEN THE CURRENT WAVE AND
THE NEXT UPSTREAM IMPULSE OVER KY.

THIS NEXT WAVE WILL COMBINE WITH THE FRONT SINKING SOUTH TO BRING
ANOTHER ROUND OF SHRA/TSRA FROM WEST TO EAST LATE THIS AFTERNOON
INTO THIS EVENING. FRONT LOOKS TO SLIP THROUGH THE NW LATER
TONIGHT...AND PERHAPS REACHING THE VA/NC BORDER OVERNIGHT. LATEST
NAM QUITE BULLISH ON BRINGING IN IFR/LIFR FOG AND LOW CIGS BEHIND
THE EXITING SHRA THIS EVENING BUT LOOKS OVERDONE OUTSIDE OF SE WVA
WHERE HIGHER CONFIDENCE OF SEEING AT LEAST MVFR CIGS/VSBYS
TONIGHT. ELSW TRENDED CLOSER TO THE LATEST LAMP DATA WITH A COMP
TOWARD THE NAM LATE WHEN A PERIOD OF MVFR/IFR VSBYS/CIGS POSSIBLE
AT MOST LOCATIONS EXCLUDING KROA.

THE DEEPER MOISTURE ALONG THE FRONT GETS PUSHED INTO THE
CAROLINAS ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. HOWEVER WITH ANOTHER WAVE
RIPPLING ALONG THE FRONT TO THE SOUTH WILL LIKELY BE HARD TO ERODE
LOW CIGS OVER THE SOUTH UNTIL SAT AFTERNOON. SOME -RA ALSO
POSSIBLE MAINLY AROUND KDAN IN THE MORNING BUT WONT INCLUDE
MENTION ATTM WHILE KEEPING VFR CIGS MOST SPOTS UNTIL MID MORNING
AND INTO THE AFTERNOON AT KDAN. SHOULD FINALLY SEE CLOUDS AND A
RETURN TO VFR SAT NIGHT INTO SUNDAY WITH ONLY SOME RESIDUAL CLOUDS
AROUND OUT EAST SAT EVENING FOR NOW. LOW PRESSURE MOVING UP FROM
THE GULF WILL LIKELY BRING RAIN AND SUB VFR CONDITIONS LATER
MONDAY INTO TUESDAY FOLLOWED BY IMPROVING WEATHER TUESDAY.
