River Flood Warning 19, NWS Blacksburg, VA

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
652 AM EST THU JAN 31 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
COLD FRONT EXITS THE COAST THIS MORNING LEAVING BEHIND WINDY
CONDITIONS THROUGH THE DAY. A FAST MOVING CLIPPER ARRIVES
TONIGHT...EXITING FRIDAY MORNING. THIS WILL BRING A SURGE OF MUCH
COLDER AIR TO END THE WEEK WITH A PERIOD OF SNOW TO THE MOUNTAINS.
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FOR FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 350 AM EST THURSDAY...

BUSY SHIFT WITH FLOODING TRANSITIONING TO SNOW AND BLACK ICE IN
THE MOUNTAINS. ALSO DEALING WITH HIGHER GUSTS OF WIND BEHIND
FRONTAL PASSAGE. LATEST SFC ANALYSIS SHOWS THE HIGHER PRESSURE
RISES OF 4-5 MB IN 3 HRS CENTERED OVER WV/ERN KY/FAR SW VA. AS
THIS PUSHES EAST THE MTNS WILL SEE A BURST OF STRONGER WINDS AND
THINK THE HIGHER WINDS WILL BEGIN TO SLOWLY WEAKEN AFTERWARDS.
CHANGES TO THE WIND HEADLINES WERE TO CANCEL THE WIND ADVISORY FOR
THE PIEDMONT AS MOMENTUM TRANSFER ON A WESTERLY FLOW DOES NOT
QUITE GET TO 40 KNOTS. THE HIGHEST ELEVATIONS STILL LOOK GOOD FOR
GUSTS OVER 50 KNOTS EARLY...WITH THE VALLEYS GUSTING TO 45 TO 50
KNOTS AT TIMES. THINKING IS THE WIND HEADLINES CAN BE DOWNGRADED
OR DROPPED BY NOON.

THE SNOW SHOWERS OVER THE WESTERN SLOPES PUTTING DOWN A LIGHT
ACCUMULATION WITH REPORTS OF A HALF INCH TO AS MUCH AS 1.5 INCHES.
THIS ACTIVITY WILL BEGIN TO LET UP IN THE NC MTNS LATER THIS
MORNING...ENDING IN SE WV BY THE AFTERNOON. DO NOT SEE ENOUGH
ACCUMULATION TO WARRANT AN ADVISORY BUT ISSUED A SPECIAL WX
STATEMENT TO COVER THE LIGHT SNOW AND TEMPS DROPPING BELOW
FREEZING INTERACTING WITH WET ROADS FROM THE TORRENTIAL RAINS
WEDNESDAY.

SKIES SHOULD CLEAR EAST OF THE MTNS TODAY WITH COLD AIR ADVECTION
WORKING AGAINST DOWNSLOPE. MOUNTAINS TO STAY CHILL WITH HIGHS IN
THE 30S...WHILE THE PIEDMONT WARMS INTO THE 40S. MAY SEE AN EARLY
HIGH IN THE LOWER 50S OUT NEAR DANVILLE BUT TEMPS SHOULD STEAD OUT
DURING THE DAY.

TONIGHT...WE ARE LOOKING AT ANOTHER WINTER WX EVENT...BUT SMALL
BUT COMPARISON TO RECENT ONES. THIS CLIPPER WILL ARRIVE IN THE
MTNS BY MIDNIGHT AND SHIFT EAST FRIDAY MORNING. MODELS ARE
ADVERTISING JUST ENOUGH QPF COMBINED WITH THE DRY/COLD AIRMASS TO
PRODUCE 15 OR 20 TO 1 RATIOS. WITH COLLABORATION WITH NWS OFFICES
TO THE WEST AND SOUTH WENT WITH A WINTER WX ADVISORY FOR SE WV/FAR
SW VA AND NC MTNS FOR TONIGHT/FRIDAY...WITH UP TO 3 INCHES OF SNOW
EXPECTED. MODELS ALSO ADVERTISING ANOTHER SHOT OF WIND...BUT WILL
LET THIS FIRST WIND EVENT END BEFORE ANY OTHER WIND HEADLINES ARE
ISSUED.

TEMPS TONIGHT WILL DROP INTO THE TEENS TO 20S.

FRIDAY...THE CLIPPER EXITS LEAVING BEHIND SNOW SHOWERS WHICH END
BY MIDDAY TO EARLY AFTERNOON. WINDS WILL BEGIN TO WEAKEN AS WELL
AS HIGH PRESSURE STARTS MOVING IN FROM THE MS VALLEY. COLD DAY
WITH 1000-500 THICKNESSES DROPPING TO 5100-5200 DM.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 415 AM EST THURSDAY...

DUE TO BUSY NEAR TERM WEATHER...NOT MANY CHANGES WERE MADE TO THIS
PERIOD OF THE FORECAST.

FRIDAY NIGHT LOOKS TO BE THE COLDEST OF THE UPCOMING NIGHT THIS
WEEKEND...CLEAR SKIES AND DIMINISHING WINDS ALLOWING FOR GOOD
RADIATIONAL COOLING.

HIGH PRESSURE PUSHES TO THE SOUTHEAST SATURDAY. GUIDANCE IN FAIRLY
GOOD AGREEMENT THAT THE MOST SIGNIFICANT CLIPPER SYSTEM WILL
APPROACH BY LATE IN THE DAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 200 PM EST WEDNESDAY...

THE MEDIUM RANGE PERIOD IS DOMINATED BY WEST OR NORTHWEST FLOW AND
SOME DEGREE OF COLD ADVECTION UNDER LARGE LONG WAVE TROUGH THAT
PERSISTS OVER THE EASTERN HALF OF NORTH AMERICA...HOWEVER OVER TIME
THE AMPLITUDE OF THE TROUGH IS EXPECTED TO SLOWLY AS WE GO THROUGH
NEXT WEEK.  HOW MUCH THIS DIMINISHES...AS WELL AS THE TIMING OF A
FEW CLIPPER SYSTEMS THAT WILL PROVIDE A RE-ENFORCING SHOT OF COLDER
AIR AND SNOW SHOWER POTENTIAL...REMAINS SOMEWHAT IN QUESTION AS
THERE ARE DIFFERENCES IN MUCH OF THE MODEL GUIDANCE THROUGH THIS
PERIOD.

SIGNIFICANT CLIPPER SYSTEM WILL AFFECT US SAT NIGHT. HAVE ALSO
INTRODUCED SOME HIGH CHC TO LOW LIKELY POPS IN THE FAR WEST AS
EARLY AS LATE IN THE DAY SATURDAY. WOULD EXPECT PRECIP TO ARRIVE
EARLIER THAN THE GFS...AND MAYBE EARLIER THAN THE ECMWF GIVEN THE
TYPICAL BIAS OF THE MODELS IN THESE SITUATIONS. STILL LOOKS LIKE A
FAIRLY MINOR NW FLOW SNOWFALL EVENT FOR THE UPSLOPE AREAS...YET A
FEW INCHES IS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION. MAYBE EVEN A SKIFF FARTHER
EAST UP TOWARD THE BLUE RDG IF THE STRONGER GFS IDEA ENDS UP BEING
CORRECT.

COOL HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN BEHIND THAT...AND THE DEGREE OF COLD
AIR ADVECTION IS UNCERTAIN YET DOES NOT LOOK ESPECIALLY STRONG.  00Z
ECMWF BUILDS WEAK S/WV RIDGE IN FOR MONDAY ACTUALLY...AHEAD OF THE
NEXT SYSTEM. FASTER SOLUTIONS SUGGEST THIS NEXT CLIPPER COULD ARRIVE
BY LATE MONDAY...BUT CONSENSUS LOOKS MORE LIKE LATE MONDAY NIGHT
INTO TUESDAY. HAVE A SLIGHT CHC IN LATE MONDAY THOUGH AGAIN BECAUSE
OF MODEL BIASES TYPICALLY NOT FAST ENOUGH.  THIS IS LIKELY TO BE
MORE MINOR EVENT IN TERMS OF ANY SNOW SHOWER ACCUMULATIONS IN
TYPICAL UPSLOPE AREAS COMPARED TO WEEKEND EVENT...YET FAR ENOUGH OUT
THAT THERE IS PLENTY OF TIME FOR POTENTIAL AMPLIFICATION AND
CANADIAN IS MOST AGRESSIVE WITH THIS IDEA.

FINALLY BY WEDNESDAY THERE ARE SIGNS OF LARGE SCALE FLOW BECOMING
INCREASINGLY ZONAL...ESPECIALLY GFS SOLUTIONS...BUT SOME DEGREE OF
NW FLOW MAY CONTINUE WELL INTO NEXT WEEK SO NOT EXPECTING ANY MAJOR
WARM UPS THROUGH MID WEEK...WITH TEMPERATURES REMAINING FAIRLY
SEASONABLE. BETTER CHANCE FOR WARM UP MAY COME LATE IN THE WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION /12Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 620 AM EST THURSDAY...

SNOW SHOWERS SWING ACROSS THE MTNS THIS MORNING BRINGING MVFR
CONDITIONS TO BLF/LWB AND OCCASIONAL IFR AT LWB.

THE SNOW WILL END THIS MORNING AND SHOULD SEE CIGS GOING VFR
BETWEEN 14-18Z AT BLF/LWB.

WINDS ARE GOING TO GUST OUT OF THE WNW AT 20 TO 35 KNOTS BUT
SLACKEN BY LATER THIS AFTERNOON.

A CLIPPER SYSTEM MOVES IN TONIGHT AND SHOULD BRING A PERIOD OF
SNOW TO BLF/LWB AND MAYBE AS FAR EAST AS ROA. WILL SEE MVFR CIGS
AFTER MIDNIGHT IN THE MTNS WHILE THE EAST STAYS VFR. WINDS WILL
PICK UP AGAIN AFTER THIS SYSTEM MOVES THROUGH BY 12Z FRI.

 VFR CONDTIONS WILL THEN RETURN LATE FRIDAY WITH ANOUTHER ROUND
OF MVFR CIGS/VSBYS AGAIN SATURDAY NIGHT ASSOCIATED WITH YET
ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE - CLIPPER TYPE SYSTEM.

HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FOR MONDAY.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
DEALING WITH MORE RIVER FLOODING ISSUES NOW THAT THE RAIN HAS
ENDED. SOME AREAL FLOOD WARNINGS ONGOING AS WELL FROM THE BLUE
RIDGE WEST WITH MANY ROAD CLOSURES.

A BIG RISE ON THE NEW RIVER THE LIKES WE HAVE NOT SEEN IN ALMOST
10 YEARS. RADFORD IS FORECAST TO REACH MODERATE FLOOD STAGE...THE
LAST TIME OCCURRING IN NOVEMBER 2003...WHICH FLOODED THE RADFORD
UNIVERSITY DEDMON CENTER PARKING LOT. THIS IS LIKELY TO HAPPEN
AGAIN. CHECK LATEST RIVER FORECASTS FOR DETAILS.

&&

.EQUIPMENT...
KFCX RADAR DOWN DUE TO COMMUNICATION PROBLEMS BETWEEN THE RADAR
AND THE LOCAL OFFICE. COULD BE A PHONE LINE ISSUE. TECHNICIANS ARE
INVESTIGATING.
