AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
303 PM EDT SUN JUN 9 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
A WEAK COLD FRONT BUT STRONG UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE APPROACH
TONIGHT AND CROSS MONDAY INTO MONDAY NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE CROSSES
MIDWEEK...THEN LOW PRESSURE LATE WEEK.  HIGH PRESSURE END OF WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/...
DEARTH OF CLOUDS HAS ALLOWED DECENT SURFACE HEATING TODAY.
MEANWHILE...UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE INTERACTING WITH WARM FRONT NEAR
THE OHIO VALLEY WILL CONTINUE MOVING NNE...WITH ASSOCIATED
CONVECTION.  INCREASING FLOW BRINGING AN INCREASE IN MOISTURE FROM
THE S COULD...IN COMBINATION WITH THE FORCING AND AFTERNOON
HEATING...LEAD TO STRONG THUNDERSTORMS IN THE WESTERN FRINGES OF THE
FCST AREA BEFORE SUNSET...ESPECIALLY KY PER SPC SLIGHT RISK AND
MCD.  MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES REMAIN WEAK WITH A BIT OF A CAP
INDICATED...ESPECIALLY EASTERN AND CENTRAL PORTIONS OF THE AREA.
THAT AND SUNDOWN WILL LIMIT THE AREA TO WHICH THE THREAT FOR STRONG
THUNDERSTORMS WILL REACH.

STLT WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS TROPICAL CONNECTION FROM ACROSS THE
MEXICAN ISTHMUS AHEAD OF A TROUGH THAT IS RATHER AMPLIFIED FOR
JUNE.  THIS FEATURE MOVES E...UNDERCUTTING HUDSON BAY
BLOCK...TONIGHT AND MON.  WIDESPREAD SHOWERS ARRIVE OVERNIGHT AND
EXIT MON MIDDAY AND AFTERNOON AS A WEAK SURFACE COLD FRONT MOVES
THROUGH.  INCLUDED THUNDERSTORMS IN THE MIX EVEN OVERNIGHT AND MON
MORNING...ON ACCOUNT OF THE STRENGTH OF THE UPPER
FORCING...AVAILABLE MOISTURE AND THE POSSIBILITY FOR ELEVATED
CONVECTION.  HAVE ALSO MOVED UP THE START TIME OF THE PRECIPITATION.

MAIN THING TO WATCH IS THE THREAT FOR HEAVY RAINFALL IN THE MOISTURE
PLUME AXIS THAT SETS UP OVER THE MIDDLE OHIO VALLEY EARLY MORNING
MORNING...ANY FLOOD THREAT WOULD BE A BIT MORE LIKELY IN E CENTRAL
OHIO WHERE MOISTURE AND DYNAMICS INTERSECT LOWEST FFG VALUES.

WITH ANY CLEARING MON AFTERNOON...ANOTHER ROUND OF CONVECTION MAY BE
ABLE TO GET GOING LATE IN THE DAY MON BENEATH THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH
ESPECIALLY GIVEN ONLY MODEST DRYING / COOLING BEHIND THE WEAK FRONT
AND OUR FAST APPROACHING THE SUMMER SOLSTICE.

MILD NT TONIGHT AS WARM FRONT PUSHES THROUGH...IN THE S FLOW AHEAD
OF THE COLD FRONT.  LOWS MAY OCCUR ON WET BULBING AFTER ADVECTIVE
AND NOCTURNAL /EVENING/ RISING OF DEW POINTS.  FCST LOOKED GOOD IN
LIGHT OF LATEST GUIDANCE OUTSIDE THE LOW MAV.  TEMPERATURES MON
COULD GET CLOSER TO MET /HIGHER THAN PREVIOUS FCST/ IF ENOUGH BREAKS
IN THE CLOUDS MATERIALIZE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORM POSSIBILITIES CONTINUE INTO THIS PERIOD AS
AN UPPER LEVEL LOW APPROACHES THE REGION. AS THE UPPER SYSTEM AND
ASSOCIATED SURFACE FRONT MOVE NORTH EAST...SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE
WILL MAKE A RATHER BRIEF APPEARANCE. HIGH PRESSURE WILL ALLOW FOR
OVERNIGHT TUESDAY TO BE DRY. THIS WILL ONLY LAST A VERY SHORT TIME
AS A WARM FRONT MOVES INTO THE COUNTY WARNING AREA. THIS WILL BRING
ABOUT MORE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORM CHANCES...ESPECIALLY NORTH
DURING THE DAY ON WEDNESDAY.

TEMPERATURES WILL BE IN THE 60S DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS MONDAY
NIGHT AND TUESDAY NIGHT. HIGHS ON TUESDAY BEHIND THE FRONT WILL BE
COOLER WITH 60S IN THE MOUNTAINS AND 70S ELSEWHERE. A WARMING TREND
DURING THE DAYTIME HOURS WILL OCCUR BY WEDNESDAY. HIGHS WILL BE IN
THE 70S IN THE MOUNTAINS TO THE MID TO UPPER 80S IN THE LOWLANDS.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE OVERALL PATTERN THROUGH THE
EXTENDED WITH A COUPLE OF SHORTWAVE DISTURBANCES EJECTING OUT OF
UPPER LEVEL NORTHWEST FLOW FIRST ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND ANOTHER ON
THURSDAY NIGHT...THERE ARE MODEL DIFFERENCES IN THE SURFACE
RESPONSES TO THE SHORTWAVE PROPAGATION WITH THE ECMWF INCREASING
SURFACE PRESSURE FALLS DUE TO STEEPER MIDLEVEL HEIGHT DECLINES OVER
THE SOUTHERN OHIO VALLEY...WHILE THE GFS HAS A MORE LINEAR
PROGRESSION ASSOCIATED WITH THE SURFACE LOW WITH IT CENTERED EAST OF
THE APPALACHIANS BY THURSDAY AFT...AGREED WITH PREVIOUS FORECAST FOR
THE MOST PART AND PUT MORE EMPHASIS ON ECMWF DUE TO MORE PLAUSIBLE
TIMING WITH SURFACE LOW AND EXPECTED CONVECTIVE PROCESSES SLOWING
THE SYSTEM SLIGHTLY WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT...WITH HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDING IN ON FRIDAY AND HINTS OF MORE PRECIP LATE NEXT
WEEKEND UNDER SIMILAR CONDITIONS...ALSO RELIED HEAVILY ON WPC
GUIDANCE FOR TEMPS AND WINDS.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL INTERACT WITH A WARM FRONT ALONG THE
OHIO VALLEY THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

CONVECTION WILL CONTINUE TO FIRE UP ACROSS THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY AS
FAR E AS E KY THIS AFTERNOON...AND A FEW OF THESE STORMS CAN BECOME
QUITE STRONG.  THE CONVECTION WILL WORK ITS WAY UP THROUGH THE
MIDDLE OHIO VALLEY BY EVENING...WITH ADDITIONAL CONVECTION POSSIBLE
IN THE WV MOUNTAINS.  THESE STORMS ARE NOT LIKELY TO BECOME AS
STRONG.  RIGHT NOW IT APPEARS ALL OF THE STORMS WILL BE SCATTERED
ENOUGH TO EXPLICITLY CODE INTO THE TAFS...WATCH FOR POSSIBLE
AMENDMENTS.

A STRONGER UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM AND WEAK SURFACE COLD FRONT WILL
APPROACH TONIGHT AND MOVE THROUGH THE AREA MON.  THIS WILL BRING
MORE WIDESPREAD SHOWERS ALONG WITH A FEW THUNDERSTORMS LATER TONIGHT
INTO MON.  HAVE MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS CODED UP FOR THIS...BUT IFR
CONDITIONS CAN EASILY OCCUR WITH HEAVIER RAINFALL.

LIGHT S TO SE SURFACE FLOW WILL STRENGTHEN FROM THE S AND BECOME A
BIT GUSTY LATE TONIGHT AND MON AS LIGHT S FLOW ALOFT BECOMES
