AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
1128 AM EDT SAT AUG 31 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
A WEAK COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE NORTH TODAY BUT FALLS APART
SUNDAY. A STRONGER COLD FRONT CROSSES LATE MONDAY AND MONDAY
NIGHT...FOLLOWED BY A COOLER AND DRIER AIRMASS FOR MID WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
9 AM UPDATE. INCREASED POPS FOR ABOUT A 2 HOUR TIME PERIOD FOR
WEAKENING CONVECTION FROM MCS MOVING EAST SOUTHEAST ACROSS CENTRAL
WEST VIRGINIA...AND INCREASED POPS ACROSS MAINLY SOUTHWESTERN
PORTIONS OF AREA FOR TRAILING CONVECTION FROM THAT MCS FARTHER EAST.
MUCH OF THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD DISSIPATE BEFORE NOON. WILL KEEP
AFTERNOON POPS THE SAME WITH MORE DIURNALLY DRIVEN CONVECTION MOVING
INTO THE NORTHWEST PORTIONS FROM CURRENT NORTHERN INDIANA
ACTIVITY...WHILE KEEPING HIGHER CHANCE POPS IN THE SOUTH WITH
OUTFLOW BOUNDARY TO ACT AS A FOCUS.

530 AM...QUICK UPDATE TO BUMP POPS UP TO LIKELY ACROSS PARTS OF
SOUTHEAST OHIO AS CONVECTIVE LINE MOVES IN. EXPECTING WIND GUSTS
30-40 KTS WITH THIS LINE...AS WELL AS HEAVY RAIN AND REDUCED
VSBYS. HAVE ISSUED SPS TO COVER THIS.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION FOLLOWS...
UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN TO RETURN TO THE AREA TODAY. COLD
FRONT...AT 06Z GENERALLY STRETCHING ACROSS NORTHWEST OHIO INTO
CENTRAL INDIANA AND ILLINOIS...WITH A WARM FRONTAL BOUNDARY ACROSS
CENTRAL/EASTERN KENTUCKY. EXPECTING ANOTHER HOT...AND HUMID DAY
ACROSS THE CWA WITH DEW POINTS IN THE LOWER 70S...AS SOUTHWESTERLY
FLOW CONTINUES AS THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM PUSHES EAST ACROSS THE
GREAT LAKES. AS IT DOES SO...COLD FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL SLOWLY SAG
SOUTH TOWARDS THE CWA...AND STALL OUT SOMEWHERE ALONG/NEAR THE
NORTHERN CWA BOUNDARY LATE TONIGHT/EARLY TOMORROW.

THE HOT...HUMID AIR MASS IN PLACE...COMBINED WITH SEVERAL UPPER AIR
DISTURBANCES MOVING THROUGH THE AREA...WILL GENERATE SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE CWA TODAY...WITH BULK OF CONVECTION
EXPECTED DURING PEAK HEATING HOURS. PW VALUES WILL GRADUALLY RISE
TODAY IN THE SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW...WITH VALUES EXPECTED TO CLIMB TO
AROUND 1.8 INCHES BY LATER THIS EVENING. COULD BE A FEW STORMS ON
THE STRONGER SIDE DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS WITH STRONG WINDS THE
PRIMARY THREAT IN THE VERY UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE...WITH PARTS OF
SOUTHEAST OHIO AND EASTERN KENTUCKY APPEARING TO BE IN THE MORE
FAVORABLE AREAS.

VERY MUCH ON THE FENCE WITH REGARDS TO ISSUING A FFA. WITH THE
EXPECTED PW VALUES/MOISTURE LADEN ATMOSPHERE IN PLACE...HEAVY
DOWNPOURS ARE A CERTAINTY. QUESTION LIES IN THE FACT THAT THERE IS
NO ONE FEATURE TO REALLY GRASP A HOLD OF...OR ONE PARTICULAR AREA OF
FOCUS FOR CONVECTION/PRECIPITATION. MAIN AREA OF FOCUS FOR A FFA
WOULD BE NORTHERN/CENTRAL WV ZONES...WHERE FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE
VALUES ARE TYPICALLY 1.5 TO 2 INCHES IN 3 HOURS. WITH THE FACT THAT
AREAS HAVE REMAINED RELATIVELY DRY THE PAST FEW DAYS...AND BASED ON
COORDINATION WITH SURROUNDING OFFICES...WILL ALLOW THE DAY SHIFT TO
REEVALUATE THE NEED FOR A WATCH FOR NOW...AND KEEP A MENTION IN THE
HWO.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
UPPER LEVEL S/W TROUGH TRAVERSES AREA THIS PERIOD AS A PNA PATTERN
AMPLIFIES OVER THE CONUS.  THIS WILL EVENTUALLY DRIVE A DRIER AND
COOLER AIR MASS INTO THE AREA...REPLACING THE SOUPY MID SUMMER TYPE
AIR MASS CURRENTLY IN PLACE.

THE SECOND OF A PAIR OF WEAKER UPPER LEVEL IMPULSES OUT AHEAD OF THE
MAIN S/W CROSSES SUN.  HAVE LIKELY POPS E OF THE OHIO RIVER WHERE
FORCING WILL BE MOST PRONOUNCED DURING PEAK HEATING TIME.  WEAK SFC
FRONT DRIVEN BY THE FIRST S/W IN THE NEAR TERM PRETTY MUCH DISSOLVES
NEAR THE AREA BY 12Z SUN.  LIGHT SFC FLOW AMID REMNANTS OF THIS
BOUNDARY AND OTHER CONVECTIVELY DRIVEN OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES WILL ALSO
HELP TO FOCUS PRECIPITATION INITIATION AS MESOSCALE DYNAMICS
DOMINATE OVER THE SYNOPTIC SCALE.  THIS MAKES DAY TWO TIMING TRICKY
AT BEST.

PW VALUES PEAK AROUND 1.9 WHILE CORFIDI VECTORS AND MESO BETA
MOVEMENT SUGGEST AROUND 15 KTS STORM MOTION SO EXCESSIVE RAINFALL IS
POSSIBLE WHERE FFG VALUES ARE CURRENTLY RUNNING IN THE THE 1/3 TO
1.6 IN RANGE ACROSS MUCH OF NORTHERN WV...AND ANY WHERE ELSE THAT
GETS HIT HARD A PRIORITY.  AS PER NEAR TERM...HWO EXCESSIVE RAINFALL
MENTION IS CONTINUED FOR NORTHERN WV AND A WATCH MAY BE NEEDED OR
ALREADY POSTED COME SUNDAY.

MAIN S/W TROUGH APPEARS TO GET OUT AHEAD OF SFC COLD FRONT AS IT
CROSSES THE AREA EARLY MON...THE COLD FRONT ITSELF NOT CROSSING
UNTIL LATE MON AND MON NT.  HAVE LIKELY POPS FIRST THING LABOR DAY
MORNING DECREASING FROM THE W LATE MON.  INSTABILITY AND MOISTURE
CONTENT VALUES ARE SIMILAR MON AS ON SUNDAY...BUT THE MOISTURE
DISTRIBUTION IS LOWER IN THE ATMOSPHERE ALONG WITH A WEAK MID LEVEL
CAP.  THIS BASICALLY CONTINUES THE HEAVY RAIN THREAT...BUT...STORM
MOTION AND STRENGTH MAY INCREASE A BIT.

IT DRIES OUT IN TERMS OF PRECIPITATION MON NT AS SUN SETS AND COLD
FRONT CROSSES...BUT TUE MORNING WILL LIKELY FIND WIDESPREAD LOW
CLOUDS AND FOG IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT.  THE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE
MIXES OUT TUE...THIS MAY BE A SLOW PROCESS...AS HIGH PRESSURE SLOWLY
BUILDS TOWARD THE AREA FROM THE NW.

WE HAVE ISSUED NEARLY AS MANY FFW/S AS SVR/S THIS YEAR...56 VS 59
RESPECTIVELY...AND THIS PATTERN IS WHY THESE NUMBERS ARE AS CLOSE AS
THEY ARE.

HIGHS SUN LOOKED TO BE IN LINE WITH GUIDANCE AND REASONABLE.  RAISED
HIGHS A BIT ON MON VIA BIAS CORRECTED ADJMAV...WHICH IS STILL NEAR
THE LOW END OF GUIDANCE.  HIGHS TUE SEEMED A BIT LOW GIVEN CURRENT
GUIDANCE BUT MADE LITTLE CHANGE AFTER BLENDING WITH BIAS CORRECTED
ADJMEX...WHICH SHOWS HIGHER VALUES N WHERE IT CLEARS FIRST.

LOWS WERE IN LINE WITH GUIDANCE MINUS THE ALWAYS LOW ADJMAV...AND
LOOKED REASONABLE...A SLIGHT UPWARD ADJUSTMENT TUE MORNING IN THE
WAKE OF THE SLUGGISH FRONT.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
SWEEPING AIRMASS CHANGE BRINGS DEWPOINTS IN THE 40S AND 50S AND
TEMPERATURES DOWN BELOW NORMAL...WHILE REMAINING VERY COMFORTABLE.
HIGH PRESSURE SHOULD DOMINATE THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK...AND
THUS...WILL SEE A SLOW WARMING TREND IN THE BOTH THE AFTERNOON AND
OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES. BY THE WEEKEND...SHOULD BE NEAR NORMAL IN
BOTH RESPECTS.

&&

.AVIATION /15Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
15Z SATURDAY THRU 12Z SUNDAY...

EARLY MORNING CONVECTION DISSIPATING AS WE HEAD INTO DIURNAL DOWN
TIME. EXPECT REDEVELOPMENT THIS AFTERNOON...MAINLY IN THE SOUTH ON
THE LEADING EDGE OF THE DYING COMPLEX AND IN THE SOUTHWEST WHERE A
BOUNDARY APPEARS TO BE SETTING UP FROM NORTHEAST KENTUCKY TO CHICAGO.
SO THE BEST CHANCE OF CONVECTION INTO THIS AFTERNOON WILL BE AT BKW
AND POSSIBLY AT HTS. NEVERTHELESS...ALTHOUGH GOING WITH LIKELY POPS
FOR THE SOUTH AND WEST THIS AFTERNOON...EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS
OUTSIDE CONVECTION.

BULK OF CONVECTION WILL DIE DOWN AFTER 03Z...BUT ISOLATED
SHOWERS/STORMS WILL CONTINUE OVERNIGHT. IN ADDITION...ANOTHER
NIGHT OF MVFR/IFR FOG/STRATUS FORMATION EXPECTED...MAINLY AFTER 04Z.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 18Z SUNDAY...

FORECAST CONFIDENCE: LOW.

ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: TIMING AND POTENTIAL FOR ORGANIZED CONVECTION
DEPENDS ON HARD TO DISCERN MESOSCALE INFLUENCES.
