AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
433 PM EDT THU JUL 4 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE WAS OVER THE MIDWEST WITH A WEAK FRONT EXTENDING TO
THE GULF COAST. A LARGE BERMUDA HIGH COVERED MUCH OF THE EASTERN
UNITED STATES. THE CENTER OF THE HIGH WILL GRADUALLY DRIFT CLOSER
TO THE COAST BY THIS WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 410 PM EDT THURSDAY...

AFTERNOON CONVECTION OVER THE AREA ARE FOLLOWING THE TRACKS OF
THE OUTER RING OF HIGH PRESSURE CENTER CLOSE TO BERMUDA. UNLIKE
THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS...CONVECTION IS MORE SCATTERED THIS
AFTERNOON. THE AXIS OF RAIN THAT WAS OVER THE AREA EARLIER THIS
WEEK HAS MOVED WEST OVER THE TENN-OHIO VALLEYS. THE RAIN THAT FELL
IN THE PAST 48 HOURS HAS THE GROUND SATURATED WITH
CREEKS...STREAMS AND RIVERS LEVELS ACROSS THE FOOTHILLS AND
MOUNTAIN COUNTIES RUNNING HIGH. ANY ADDITIONAL RAIN INTO THIS
EVENING WILL BRING LEVELS ABOVE BANKFULL AND CAUSE PROBLEMS IN
POOR DRAINAGE AREAS. THIS AFTERNOONS STORMS WILL FADE WITH SUNSET.
THE FLASH FLOOD THREAT WILL WANE FOR AREAS NORTH OF A LINE FROM
BLUEFIELD WV TO MT AIREY NC. MORE NUMEROUS SHOWERS COMING ACROSS
WESTERN NC WILL REMAIN OVERNIGHT WITH ADDITIONAL BANDS SETTING UP
ON FRIDAY FOR AREAS SOUTH OF A LINE FROM BLUEFIELD WV TO MT AIREY.
WITH A CONTINUING THREAT FOR MORE SHOWERS...WE HAVE EXTENDED THE
FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR SW RNK CWA THROUGH 8P FRIDAY.

THE BERMUDA RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO INFLUENCE THE AREAS WEATHER ON
FRIDAY. WITH A TROPICAL AIR MASS IN PLACE...AFTERNOON HEATING WILL
BRING BANDS OF SCATTERED CONVECTION BACK INTO THE AREA. A FEW
ISOLATED SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE IN THE MORNING...THEN WILL PEPPER
THE REGION MORESO IN THE AFTERNOON.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 405 PM EDT THURSDAY...

THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE CENTERED NEAR BERMUDA WILL CONTINUE TO
DRIFT TO THE WEST FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY. VERY HUMID AND
TROPICAL-LIKE ATMOSPHERE WILL LEAD TO ANOTHER ROUND OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS SATURDAY AFTERNOON. ON SUNDAY...THE RIDGE SINKS TO
THE SOUTHWEST TOWARD THE SOUTHEAST USA COAST. THIS JOG TO THE
SOUTHWEST WILL ALLOW THE UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER THE MID MISSISSIPPI
VALLEY TO MOVE TO NORTH OVER THE OHIO VALLEY. BY SUNDAY
NIGHT...THIS LOW WILL OPEN INTO A TROUGH AND BRING A MORE
TRADITIONAL THREAT OF SHOWERS FROM THE WEST- SOUTHWEST. SHORT
WAVES ASSOCIATED WITH THE TROUGH WILL BRING NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS BACK INTO THE AREA SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. ADDING TO THE INSTABILITY WILL BE A LEE TROUGH IN THE
EAST.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 415 PM EDT THURSDAY...

UPPER LEVEL RIDGE IN THE WESTERN ATLANTIC IS EXPECTED TO START
MOVING TO THE EAST SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY. ZONAL FLOW AND A HUMID
AIR MASS WILL BRING SHOWERS FROM THE OHIO VALLEY INTO THE AREA
THROUGH MOST OF NEXT WEEK. THESE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
MOSTLY BE CONFIDED TO THE PEAKING HEATING HOURS OF THE AFTERNOON
AND EVENING.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 130 PM EDT THURSDAY...

REGIONAL RADAR MOSAIC SHOWS THE BULK OF THE MOISTURE IS NOW OUT
TO OUR WEST. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM WILL
CONTINUE THIS AFTERNOON. SOME OF THE SHOWERS HAVE PRODUCED VERY
HEAVY RAINFALL AND REDUCED VISIBILITIES FOR A SHORT PERIOD.
CONDITIONS WILL BE VFR EXCEPT FOR BRIEF PERIODS OF MVFR/IFR UNDER
HEAVY SHOWERS. ADDED FOG INTO MOST AREAS FOR THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD
AS SATURATED SOILS AND HIGH DEWPOINTS WILL ONCE AGAIN CREATE SOME
AREAS OF FOG.

FROM PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...

LITTLE CHANGE IS EXPECTED IN THE STRENGTH AND POSITION OF AN
UPPER TROUGH WEST OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER AND UPPER LEVEL HIGH
PRESSURE OFF OF THE ATLANTIC COAST. THEREFORE THE AXIS OF
HEAVIEST/MOST WIDESPREAD RAINFALL WILL REMAIN OVER THE
MOUNTAINS...ALTHOUGH SCATTERED SHOWER ACTIVITY WILL STILL OCCUR
ACROSS THE PIEDMONTS DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING.
RAINFALL WILL AGAIN BE LOCALLY HEAVY FOR ALL AIRPORTS...AND
CAPABLE OF QUICKLY REDUCING VISIBILITIES TO LESS THAN 1SM AS
DOWNPOURS PASS OVERHEAD.

STRATUS WITH MVFR TO IFR CEILINGS WILL REFORM AGAIN
OVERNIGHT...MAINLY AFTER MIDNIGHT. HIGH CONFIDENCE THAN MVFR
CEILINGS WILL DEVELOP BUT NOT AS SURE ABOUT CEILINGS AS LOW AS
IFR.

FOR FRIDAY INTO THE WEEKEND...THE WEATHER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE
TO SHIFT AS UPPER LEVEL HIGH PRESSURE BUILD OVER OUR AREA. AS
SUCH...THE BEST PROBABILITY OF PRECIPITATION WILL BE FROM THE BLUE
RIDGE WESTWARD...WHILE RAINFALL OVER THE EAST WILL BE MORE SPOTTY.
THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL FINALLY LIFT OUT OF THE AREA ON
MONDAY...BECOMING ABSORBED IN THE STRONGER WIND FLOW OVER THE
NORTHERN UNITED STATES.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
AS OF 505 AM EDT THURSDAY...

COUNTIES THROUGH 8PM THIS EVENING. THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN
