AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
903 PM EDT WED JUL 31 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE WILL TRAVEL FROM KENTUCKY TO PENNSYLVANIA
OVERNIGHT...AND ITS ASSOCIATED WARM FRONT WILL MOVE NORTH THROUGH
OUR REGION BY EARLY THURSDAY. AS THE LOW CONTINUES TOWARD THE
COAST ON THURSDAY...ITS ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE AREA
FROM WEST TO EAST. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION BEHIND
THE FRONT BY FRIDAY.
&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 825 PM EDT WEDNESDAY...

LATEST OBSERVED SOUNDINGS SHOW GOOD VEERING WITH HEIGHT THIS
EVENING AHEAD OF THE 5H/85H TROUGH AXIS HEADING IN FROM THE WEST
OVERNIGHT. HOWEVER MAIN PIECE OF UPPER SUPPORT LOOKS TO SCOOT OUT
AHEAD AND IN ADVANCE OF THE WARM FRONT THAT WILL SLOWLY EDGE NE
INTO THE REGION LATE. THUS APPEARS MAIN FORCING WITH TIME
OVERNIGHT WILL BE MAINLY WITH LOW LEVEL ISENTROPIC LIFT AHEAD OF
THE BOUNDARY AS BETTER LIFT EXITS TO THE NE EARLY ON. HOWEVER WILL
STILL HAVE SOME SHALLOW BASED CONVECTION ACROSS THE SE THROUGH
AROUND MIDNIGHT WHERE ABOUT THE ONLY AXIS OF INSTABILITY REMAINS
GIVEN CLOUDS/RAIN DURING THE AFTERNOON. ENOUGH LOW LEVEL HELICITY
PER CURVED HODOGRAPHS FOR SOME OF THE CELLS TO ACQUIRE ROTATION
BUT SPEEDS ALOFT QUITE WEAK WITH TRANSPORT OF WINDS TO THE SURFACE
LIMITED BY THE SURFACE STABLE LAYER. THUS KEEPING IN LIKELY/CAT
POPS SE CORNER A FEW MORE HOURS GIVEN ADDED SHRA/TSRA HEADING NE
OUT OF CENTRAL NC...WHILE LEAVING LIKELYS TO HIGHER CHANCE ALONG
THE HIGHWAY 460 CORRIDOR AS WELL WHERE MORE SPOTTY NATURE -RA
LOOKS TO PERSIST. FOG/DZ MAY ALSO BECOME AN ISSUE LATE AS WARMER
AIR ALOFT ARRIVES UNDER BETTER SW FLOW WITH THE APPROACH OF THE
WARM FRONT SO BEEFED UP FOG COVERAGE. WITH SOME TEMPS ALREADY
AROUND GOING FORECAST LOWS UPDATING TO LOWER A FEW MORE DEGREES IN
SPOTS WITH ONLY SMALL ADDED TEMP FALLS EXPECTED GIVEN MOISTURE
OVERNIGHT.

BY THURSDAY MORNING...THE LOW WILL BE OVER CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA AND
ITS ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL BE ENTERING THE WESTERN PART OF THE
FORECAST AREA. THIS COLD FRONT WILL TRACK ACROSS THE AREA ON
THURSDAY...BUT SLOW BY AFTERNOON AS ANOTHER LOW TRACKS NORTH ALONG
THE COLD FRONT FROM GEORGIA. WE ARE EXPECTING A GENEROUS COVERAGE OF
SHOWERS AND STORMS ACROSS THE EASTERN PART OF THE AREA ON THURSDAY.
COVERAGE WILL BE DECLINING ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS DURING THE
AFTERNOON. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL RANGE FROM THE MID TO UPPER 70S
ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS WITH LOW TO MID 80S OVER THE PIEDMONT.
&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 230 PM EDT WEDNESDAY...

INCREASED SPEED OF DRYING BEHIND THE FRONT THU EVENING AS SUBSIDENCE
ALOFT KICKS IN PER ECMWF SOLUTION. FRIDAY WILL BE DRY WITH DEWPOINTS
AT LEAST STAYING IN THE UPPER 50S TO LOWER 60S. WITH MORE SUN WILL
SEE TEMPS WARM INTO THE MID TO UPPER 80S EAST OF THE MOUNTAINS
WITH UPPER 70S TO LOWER 80S MOUNTAINS.

FRI NIGHT HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE IN CONTROL BUT EXPECT WITH FAST FLOW
ALOFT UPSTREAM CLOUD COVER IN THE FORM OF MID/HIGH CLOUDS WILL
INCREASE OVERNIGHT...WHICH WILL KEEP LOWS UP CLOSE TO NORMAL WITH
UPPER 50S/LOWER 60S MOUNTAINS TO MID 60S EAST.

SATURDAY...THE NEXT FRONT SAGS SE TOWARD THE MOUNTAINS WITH MAIN
ENERGY TO OUR NORTH. THE ECMWF AND GFS SHOWING PRECIP MAKING HEADWAY
TOWARD OUR NW CWA BY SAT AFTERNOON...AND WILL KEEP 30/40 POPS GOING
FOR MOST OF THE MOUNTAINS AND OVER AREAS NORTH OF A ROANOKE TO
LYNCHBURG LINE...WITH SLIGHT CHANCE TO NOTHING IN THE SOUTHEAST.
WITH CLOUD COVER IN PLACE WENT COOLER THAN MOS GUIDANCE WITH UPPER
70S MOUNTAINS TO MID 80S EAST.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 100 PM EDT WEDNESDAY...

KEEPING WITH A BLEND OF THE 00Z ECMWF/06Z GFS IN THE FIRST COUPLE OF
DAYS THIS PERIOD THEN TRANSITIONING MORE TOWARD ECM/WPC BLEND.

STILL NOT LOOKING AT A WHOLE LOT OF PRECIPITATION OVERALL BUT THE NW
FLOW WITH BROAD TROUGH OVER THE NE INTO THE MID ATLANTIC WILL KEEP
SOME FRONTAL SYSTEMS MOVING THROUGH OVER THIS PERIOD WITH BOUNDARY
WASHING OUT/STALLING OUT TO OUR SOUTH. MOSTLY LOOKING AT JUST BELOW
NORMAL TEMPERATURE SETUP AT LEAST AFTER THE FIRST FRONT PASSES BY
SUNDAY AFTERNOON.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL SETTLE OVER THE MID ATLANTIC MONDAY FOLLOWED BY
ANOTHER SHORTWAVE AND ATTENDANT FRONT FOR EARLY TUESDAY. KEPT POPS
OVERALL IN THE SLIGHT CHANCE TO CHANCE RANGE...BUT APPEARS THE
PATTERN FAVORS THE WRN SLOPES OF WV/SW VA INTO NW NC TO HAVE BETTER
THREAT OF SHOWERS OR STORMS NEXT WEEK. THE 06Z GFS AT TIMES SHOWED
CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK/HIGHER QPF BULLSEYES WITH THE FRONT DRAPED OVER
US EARLY NEXT WEEK AND GENERALLY RULED THIS OUT...FAVORING HPC/ECMWF.

AFTER MIDWEEK THE FRONT EXPECTED TO STALL OUT THE SOUTHEAST WHILE
HIGH PRESSURE NOSES IN FROM THE MIDWEST. AT THIS STAGE THE PATTERN
STILL FAVORS SOME THREAT OF SHOWERS BUT OVERALL MID AND UPPER FLOW
STAYS WEST TO NORTHWEST.

&&

.AVIATION /01Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 640 PM EDT WEDNESDAY...

PATCHY LIGHT RAIN WITH BANDS OF HEAVIER SHRA CONTINUE ACROSS MUCH
OF THE AREA THIS EVENING RESULTING IN QUITE VARIABLE CIGS/VSBYS
INCLUDING MVFR/IFR MOUNTAINS TO VFR ACROSS THE EAST WHERE STILL
SEEING MOSTLY MID DECK. EXPECT THIS SCENARIO TO PERSIST EARLY THIS
EVENING WITH MOST SIGNIFICANT SHRA/ISOLATED TSRA AFFECTING SITES
ALONG AND EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE WHERE LOWERING CONDITIONS TO MORE
WIDESPREAD MVFR ARE EXPECTED.

AS WE PROGRESS INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS...LOW PRESSURE WILL
SLIDE FROM KENTUCKY TO PENNSYLVANIA WHICH WILL BRING A WARM FRONT
NORTH THROUGH THE REGION ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE LOW TOWARD
MORNING. STILL EXPECTING A GENERAL TREND TOWARD LOWERING FLIGHT
CONDITIONS DURING THIS PERIOD TO IFR AT MOST LOCATIONS ALONG WITH
PATCHY LIGHT RAIN...DRIZZLE AND MIST/FOG. MAY EVEN SEE A PERIOD OF
LIFR JUST AHEAD OF THE FRONT LATE WITH MORE FOG/STRATUS. OTRW WINDS
WILL REMAIN LIGHT AND VARIABLE BUT TREND LIGHT FROM THE SOUTHWEST
TOWARD DAYBREAK THURSDAY.

THE COLD FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THE LOW IS EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO
THE WESTERN PART OF THE AREA AFTER 12Z/8AM THURSDAY. THIS SHOULD
SHIFT WINDS TO A MORE WESTERLY COMPONENT WITH PERHAPS A BAND OF
SHRA RIGHT ALONG THE FRONT EARLY ON. HOWEVER FLIGHT CATEGORIES
ARE EXPECTED TO IMPROVE AHEAD OF THE FRONT AS LOW LEVEL MOISTURE
MIXES OUT WITH HEATING ESPCLY EASTERN LOCATIONS. SHOWERS WILL
LIKELY REDEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT ALONG/EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE
AROUND MIDDAY...WITH SOME ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS BY THE EARLY
AFTERNOON HEADING EAST TOWARD KLYH/KDAN. SINCE MEDIUM TO HIGH
CONFIDENCE IN SEEING A SHRA/TSRA ACROSS EASTERN SITES...INCLUDED A
PREVAILING SHRA WITH VCTS MENTION THERE. ELSW EXPECTING MVFR CIGS
AND POSSIBLE MVFR VSBYS IN EARLY SHRA TO IMPROVE TO A BKN VFR
LAYER WITH ONLY ISOLATED -SHRA WITH THE FRONTAL PASSAGE.

THE INFLUENCE OF THE FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO PROVIDE SHOWERS ACROSS
PARTS OF THE REGION INTO THURSDAY EVENING...ESPECIALLY IN THE
EAST.

HIGH PRESSURE STARTS BUILDING INTO THE AREA BY LATE THURSDAY
NIGHT AND CONTINUES OVER THE AREA THROUGH EARLY SATURDAY. MAINLY
VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED DURING THIS PERIOD EXCEPT LATE AT
NIGHT AND EARLY MORNING HOURS WHEN MOUNTAIN AND RIVER VALLEY FOG
WILL BE POSSIBLE.

THE NEXT COLD FRONT IS PROGGED TO MOVE THROUGH THE AREA SATURDAY
EVENING INTO SUNDAY MORNING. ANTICIPATE A RETURN OF SCATTERED
SHOWERS AND STORMS AND SOME AREAS OF SUB-VFR CONDITIONS.

HIGH PRESSURE AND MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS RETURN BY MONDAY. EARLY
