AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
259 PM EDT WED JUN 5 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY INCREASES. INVERTED TROF AND FRONT SETS
ALONG THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY OVERNIGHT. SEVERAL DISTURBANCES ALOFT
PASS THIS EVENING INTO FRIDAY. DRIER AIR CREEPS BACK THIS WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/...
WE ARE STILL THINKING THE INVERTED SURFACE TROF...AND ITS ASSOCIATED
MOISTURE CONVERGENCE SETS UP THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY INTO SOUTHEASTERN
OHIO OVERNIGHT TONIGHT.

AT 18Z. INSTABILITY INCREASING AS DEW POINTS HAVE REACHED THE LOWER
60S.  STRONG DEW POINT GRADIENT LOCATED NEAR VINTON TO MORGAN
COUNTIES IN OHIO.

SO HAVE THE LIKELY AND HIGHER POPS MOVING NE INTO THE SOUTHERN
LOWLANDS LATE THIS AFTERNOON...THEN BECOMING CONCENTRATED AROUND THE
OHIO VALLEY COUNTIES OVERNIGHT...AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING 500 MB
VORT MAX.  OF COURSE...WITH PWS EXCEEDING 1.75 TONIGHT...ANY SHOWER
CAN BE A DOWNPOUR WITH THE USUAL STREET AND POOR DRAINAGE FLOODING.
HARD TO DETERMINE SPECIFIC HOURLY POP FOR THE BKW TO EKN
CORRIDOR...SINCE HAVE MAIN SUPPORT FURTHER WEST.  STILL...HAVE TO
HAVE AT LEAST CHANCE POPS FOR SCATTERED CONVECTION IN THESE OTHER
COUNTIES DUE TO THE INCREASE IN MOISTURE.

IN THE WAKE OF THAT 500 MB VORT MAX....THERE WILL LIKELY BE
LULLS...PUT HARD TO BE DETERMINISTIC AND PICK WHERE.

NEXT MAIN VORT MAX AT 500 MB ASSOCIATED WITH THE DECAYING/WARMING
COMPLEX...IN MISSOURI AND ARKANSAS AT 18Z WED...WILL PASS US
THURSDAY AFTERNOON.

HAVE HIGHER POPS SLOWLY CREEPING EAST DURING THE DAY ON THURSDAY.

CURRENTLY MANY COUNTIES WANT AND NEED THE RAIN. YET...STILL
CONCERNED ABOUT THE WHOLE EVENT THROUGH FRIDAY. THUS...WE ARE STILL
KEEPING THE WATER HAZARD IN OUR HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK. AS OF 18Z
WEDNESDAY WE ARE THINKING...BEST POLICY IS TO MONITOR THESE INITIAL
ROUNDS OF CONVECTION LATE TODAY AND TONIGHT...TO DETERMINE THE
COVERAGE OF THE INITIAL HEAVY RAIN...AND IF AND WHERE WE NEED FLASH
FLOOD WATCHES FOR THE LATER ROUNDS TO FOLLOW.

NO BIG CHANGES IN MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN CONTINUES IN THE SHORT TERM PERIOD. THURSDAY
NIGHT STARTS OUT WITH FRONTAL BOUNDARY STALLED NEAR THE OHIO
RIVER...WITH INITIAL WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE STARTING TO PUSH TO THE
EAST OF THE CWA. ONCE THIS INITIAL WAVE MOVES OFF LATE THURSDAY
NIGHT...WILL SEE A GRADUAL DECREASE IN POPS THURSDAY
NIGHT...HOWEVER...FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL START TO SLIDE OFF TO THE
SOUTH AND EAST ON FRIDAY...IN ADDITION...LOW PRESSURE WILL START TO
RIDE UP ALONG THE EAST COAST OF THE UNITED STATES FRIDAY. NAM MODEL
CONTINUES TO BE THE OUTLIER DURING THIS PERIOD WITH IT CONTINUING TO
TREK THE LOW UP THROUGH THE APPALACHIANS...INSTEAD OF ALONG THE EAST
COAST. HAVE DISREGARDED THE NAM DURING THIS PERIOD AS A RESULT.
THEREFORE...BULK OF PRECIPITATION ON FRIDAY SHOULD BE ACROSS THE
EASTERN HALF OF THE CWA...PARTICULARLY ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN
COUNTIES. STILL LOOKING AT THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY DOWNPOURS DURING
THIS PERIOD AS PW VALUES WILL CONTINUE TO BE WELL ABOVE
NORMAL...GENERALLY 1.6 TO 1.8 INCHES. BULK OF PRECIPITATION WILL
FINALLY TAPER OFF ON SATURDAY AS THE LOW CONTINUES TO PULL OFF TO
THE EAST...BUT COULD STILL SEE A CHANCE OF SHOWERS OVER THE WEEKEND
WITH THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY LINGERING NEARBY.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL GRADUALLY LIFT BACK NORTH ACROSS THE CWA LATE
IN THE WEEK AS LOW PRESSURE STARTS TO PUSH EAST ACROSS THE GREAT
LAKES REGION. COLD FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS LOW WILL START TO PUSH
SOUTH INTO THE CWA EARLY NEXT WEEK...BUT THERE TENDS TO BE
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE MODELS CONCERNING THE PLACEMENT/TIMING OF
THIS BOUNDARY INTO THE CWA. FOR NOW...ROLLED WITH HPC
GUIDANCE...WHICH GENERALLY GIVES A BROAD BRUSH OF POPS EARLY NEXT
WEEK. ONCE THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS ABLE TO PUSH SOUTH...EXPECT TO
SEE SOME COOLER...DRIER WEATHER.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AT 18Z...DEW POINTS AND INSTABILITY INCREASING.  INVERTED TROF
SETTING UP IN OHIO VALLEY WITH ASSOCIATED MOISTURE
CONVERGENCE...APPROACHING 500 MB SHORT WAVE.  THIS ALL SPELLS AN
INCREASE IN CONVECTION 18Z THROUGH 02Z ACROSS SOUTHERN COUNTIES...
INCLUDING MAINLY NORTHEAST KENTUCKY...SOUTHERN WEST VIRGINIA
INCLUDING HTS...CRW...AND BKW...AND SOUTHWEST VIRGINIA.  HARD TO
DETERMINE COVERAGE LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING OVER THE WV
MOUNTAIN COUNTIES.  CURRENTLY LEAVING HIGHER POPS TO THE
WEST...ACROSS THE LOWLANDS.

AFTER SUNSET AND 01Z...HAVE CONVECTION TRYING TO LINGER MOST
OVERNIGHT ALONG THE OHIO RIVER COUNTIES...INCLUDING THE MID OHIO
VALLEY AROUND PKB AND UNI...THEN CREEP EAST 12Z TO 18Z THURSDAY.
