Area forecast discussion, Jul 1, 9:34 PM EDT, 2 hours 26 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
934 PM EDT SUN JUL 1 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
STRONG HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT...RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ONGOING HEAT
WAVE...WILL SLOWLY WEAKEN AND SHIFT SLIGHTLY FURTHER SOUTH
THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF THE WORK WEEK. A SERIES OF UPPER-LEVEL
DISTURBANCES WILL TRACK FROM NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE
FORECAST AREA THROUGH WEDNESDAY...WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS AS A RESULT. TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN WELL ABOVE
NORMAL FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 925 PM EDT SUNDAY...

SPC HAS ISSUED SEVERED THUNDERSTORM WATCH 452 FOR SE WV EAST INTO
THE FOOTHILLS OF VA UNTIL 2 AM. AN ORGANIZED COMPLEX OF STORMS
STRETCH FROM ERN OHIO SOUTH TO ERN KY AND ARE MOVING EAST AT 35 TO
45 MPH. WITH THIS SITUATION...THE STORMS SHOULD BE ENTERING SE WV
BETWEEN 10 AND 11 PM. THIS SETUP IS NOT AS STRONG AS THE FRIDAY
EVENING COMPLEX BUT DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THE MAIN THREAT. HAVE
UPPED POPS TO LIKELY/CAT IN THE SE WV AREA BY 11 PM SHIFTING
HIGHER POPS EAST TO THE BLUE RIDGE AROUND MIDNIGHT-2 AM. KEPT
LOWER POPS IN THE SRN CWA AS THE AIRMASS DOWN THAT WAY SHOWS WEAK
INSTABILITY DUE TO STORMS EARLIER IN THE DAY OVERTURNINING THE
ATMOSPHERE. STILL COULD SEE A STORM OR TWO AFTER MIDNIGHT IN THE
SOUTH THAT COULD BRING GUSTY WINDS.

PLAYED LOW TEMPERATURES TONIGHT CLOSE TO THE ADJMET WITH LOW
TEMPERATURES FROM THE MID 60S TO THE LOWER 70S.

ROUNDS OF SHRA/TSRA WILL DEVELOP AGAIN WITH POSSIBLE MCS AND
UPPER AIR DISTURBANCES DROPPING SOUTHEAST ACROSS OUR REGION.
SWODY2 KEEPS REGION IN SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
MONDAY. HIGH MONDAY WILL VARY FROM THE UPPER 80S IN THE MOUNTAINS TO
THE UPPER 90S IN THE SOUTHEAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 305 PM EDT SUNDAY...

NW FLOW ALOFT WILL PERSIST OVER THE REGION AS A WEAK SFC WARM FRONT
SLOWLY LIFTS BACK TO THE NE UNDER EXPANDING HEIGHTS TO THE SOUTH.
THIS COMBO WITH A LEFTOVER LEE TROF SHOULD MAKE FOR MORE DAILY
ROUNDS OF SHRA/TSRA WITH POSSIBLE MCS FEATURES AGAIN DIVING SE INTO
THE REGION. TIMING OF THIS SCENARIO THOUGH QUITE IFFY AS
AFTERNOON/EVENING DEVELOPMENT MAY BE REDUCED SOME IF OVERNIGHT STORM
CLUSTERS DROP SE. THUS WILL RUN WITH HIGHER CHANCE POPS DURING THE
MORE DIURNALLY FAVORED TIMES...BUT LEAVE IN SOME POPS DURING THE
NIGHT PERIODS TO COVER. OTRW MORE WARM AND MUGGY GIVEN MOISTURE
AROUND BUT NOT QUITE AS HOT ESPCLY WEST WHERE MORE COOLING VIA
SHRA/TSRA SHOULD OCCUR. HOWEVER STILL WILL SEE ENOUGH HEATING FOR AT
LEAST LOW/MID 90S EAST AND PERHAPS A FEW UPPER 90S AGAIN BY THE 4TH.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 255 PM EDT SUNDAY...

WEAK 5H TROFFINESS ACROSS THE EASTERN STATES WILL GRADUALLY WEAKEN
AND SHIFT EAST BY THE WEEKEND AS THE LARGE MID LEVEL HIGH ACROSS THE
PLAINS ATTEMPTS TO EXTEND EAST. THIS MAY ACT TO DETER OVERALL
COVERAGE OF CONVECTION WHILE MAKING FOR MORE OF A NW FLOW MCS TYPE
SCENARIO LATER IN THE PERIOD AS IMPULSES DIVE SE AROUND THE RIDGE.
HOWVER WITH MOISTURE IN PLACE EXPECT MORE EPISODES OF MAINLY
AFTERNOON/EVENING SHRA/TSRA INTO FRIDAY BEFORE BECOMING MORE MCS
COMPLEX ORIENTED BY THE WEEKEND. STRONGER COLD FRONT TO THE NORTH
MAY MAKE A RUN BY SUNDAY PER LATEST GFS BUT GIVEN THE STRONGER
RIDGING WILL GO CLOSER TO THE EURO AND HOLD THE BOUNDARY TO THE
NORTH. THIS WILL KEEP TEMPS ABOVE NORMAL WITH MORE 90S EAST AND
CLOSE TO 90 OR WARMER WEST THRU THE PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION /02Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 745 PM EDT SUNDAY...

FORECAST OVERALL WILL BE VFR BUT WILL BE DEALING AGAIN WITH
ORGANIZED STORM POTENTIAL LATER THIS EVENING AND AGAIN MONDAY.
ATTM...MODELS VARY TOO MUCH TO MAKE A CONFIDENT FORECAST. IN THE
NEXT 6 HOURS THE LATEST RAP MODEL SEEMS TO BE ON THE FAST EDGE OF
THE STORMS IN OHIO/NW WV...BUT DOING THE BEST IN PLACEMENT. WILL
HAVE A PERIOD OF VCTS COMING INTO LWB/BLF AT 0130Z THEN BCB/ROA BY
03Z...LASTING FOR 2-3 HRS. KEPT THE EAST FREE OF CONVECTON BUT THE
POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR THIS SYSTEM OF STORMS TO MOVE INTO THIS AREA
AFTER MIDNIGHT. WITH ANY STORMS...THE MAIN THREAT WILL BE GUSTY NW
WINDS AND THE RAP MODEL IS SHOWING A BRIEF PERIOD 1-2 HRS OF GUSTY
NW WINDS IN THE MTNS.

KEPT SOME MINOR FOG ISSUES AFTER MIDNIGHT IN LWB BUT KEPT IT OUT ELSEWHERE.

FOR MONDAY...NOT CONFIDENT ON THE FORECAST BUT WOULD NOT BE
SURPRISED FOR ANOTHER COMPLEX OF STORMS TO MOVE IN SOMETIME
BETWEEN DAWN AND MID AFTERNOON. OUTSIDE OF THIS IT WILL BE VFR.

EXECT MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS THROUGH FRIDAY... THOUGH WILL LIKELY
SEE MORE AREAS OF MVFR/IFR VISIBILITY DUE TO FOG EARLY EACH
MORNING FROM TUESDAY ONWARD...ESPECIALLY AT KLWB AND KBLF.
ALSO...EXPECT TO SEE AN UPTICK IN AFTERNOON CONVECTION AND
ASSOCIATED SUB-VFR CONDITIONS AS THE UPPER LEVEL HIGH PRESSURE
SYSTEM GRADUALLY WEAKENS AND DRIFTS WESTWARD TOWARD THE LOWER-MID
MS VALLEY. TERRAIN- INDUCED AFTERNOON CONVECTION CURRENTLY
ANTICIPATED MONDAY- FRIDAY.
