Area forecast discussion, Jun 13, 1:49 PM EDT, 34 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
149 PM EDT THU JUN 13 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL SWEEP ACROSS THE REGION TODAY BRINGING
STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS INTO THE EVENING. MUCH COOLER AND DRIER
AIR WILL FOLLOW THE FRONT AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE
NORTHWEST ON FRIDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 138 PM EDT THURSDAY...

SVR THUNDERSTORM WATCH 307 ADDED TO OUR NC COUNTIES TIL 8 PM.

SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WATCH 306 ISSUED FOR SE WV/SW VA BLACKSBURG
CWA. NC COUNTIES MAY BE IN A LATER WATCH.

AS OF 1040 AM EDT THURSDAY...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE DEVELOPING ON LAST NIGHT'S STORMS
OUTFLOW BOUNDARY THIS MORNING. THESE STORMS WILL MOVE ACROSS
SOUTHEAST WEST VIRGINIA BETWEEN 11A- 01P TODAY. THESE STORMS ARE
CURRENTLY NOT SEVERE BUT DO CONTAIN WIND GUST UP TO 40
MPH...FREQUENT LIGHTNING...AND PEA SIZE HAIL. THESE STORMS WILL
ADVANCE EAST OVER THE ALLEGHANY HIGHLANDS EARLY THIS
AFTERNOON...AND COULD BECOME STRONGER MOVING INTO HIGHER
INSTABILITIES. THE MORE WIDESPREAD THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER WILL
COME WITH THE COLD FRONT. THIS COLD FRONT IS JUST NOW ENTERING
WESTERN WEST VIRGINIA AT 1030 AM. UNLESS THIS FRONT PICKS UP
SPEED...IT WILL ARRIVE IN SE WV/SW VA AROUND 300 PM. ONCE THIS
FRONT GETS CLOSER TO THE AREA...IT SHOULD PICK UP SPEED AND JUMP
TO THE LEE TROUGH IN THE EAST. A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH IS
LIKELY TO BE ISSUED FOR THIS AFTERNOON IN TO THIS EVENING. AS OF
RIGHT NOW...THE HIGHEST LIKELIHOOD FOR A WATCH WILL BE EAST OF THE
BLUE RIDGE. PORTIONS OF THE MOUNTAINS COULD ALSO BE INCLUDED IN
THE WATCH DEPENDING ON AFTERNOON DESTABILIZATION.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION AS OF 440 AM EDT THURSDAY...

WATER VAPOR LOOP SHOWED TWO WELL DEFINED SHORT WAVES CROSSING THE
GREAT LAKES THIS MORNING. AT THE SURFACE...A SQUALL LINE WAS
CROSSING INTO WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA AND NORTHWEST WEST VIRGINIA.
THIS WAS WELL AHEAD OF THE SURFACE COLD FRONT THAT EXTENDED FROM
INDIANA INTO SOUTHEAST MISSOURI. A WARM FRONT WAS ACROSS OHIO
INTO SOUTHERN MARYLAND.

MODELS REMAINED SIMILAR IN TIMING AND PLACEMENT OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS COMING THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA TODAY. AT THIS
TIME THE MOST UNSTABLE AIR EXTENDED FROM WEST VIRGINIA INTO
KENTUCKY. DOWNDRAFT CONVECTIVE AVAILABLE POTENTIAL ENERGY AHEAD OF
THE STORMS HAD BEEN AROUND THE 1200 J/KG RANGE FOR SINCE MIDNIGHT.
THE LOW LEVEL JET HAD BEEN INCREASING OVERNIGHT FROM THE WEST
WITH SPEEDS NOW INTO THE 40-50 KNOT RANGE...AND 850-300 MB WINDS
WERE FROM THE WEST AROUND 50 KNOTS.

WITH THE DEEP WEST WIND...STORMS WILL LIKELY WEAKEN AS THEY CROSS
INTO THE MOUNTAINS AND THE ADJACENT EAST SLOPES OF THE BLUE
RIDGE. BUT ENOUGH HEATING BY THIS AFTERNOON IN THE
PIEDMONT...MAINLY EAST OF A LYNCHBURG TO REIDSVILLE LINE THAT
THUNDERSTORMS WILL RE-INTENSIFY OR RE-DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON.
BEST PROBABILITY OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS REMAINS IN THE FAR
WEST AND FAR EAST PARTS OF THE COUNTY WARNING AREA.

FRONT WILL CROSS THE FORECAST AREA BETWEEN 8AM AND 8PM. WINDS WILL
BE GUSTY OUT OF THE WEST TO SOUTHWEST AHEAD OF THE FRONT. MODELS
SHOWED PRESSURE RISES OF 3 TO 5 MB PER 6 HOURS BEHIND THE FRONT
WITH 30 TO 40 KNOT 850 MB WINDS. STRONG GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS
BEHIND THE FRONT WILL BRING IN A COOLER AIR MASS WITH 850 MB
TEMPERATURES DOWN TO +10 BY 12Z FRIDAY AND SURFACE DEW POINTS INTO
THE 50S AND LOWER 60S.

LEANED TOWARD BIAS CORRECTED MAV GUIDANCE FOR MAXIMUM
TEMPERATURES TODAY AND A BLEND OR MAV/MET GUIDANCE FOR LOWS
TONIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 345 AM EDT THURSDAY...

ANOMALOUS H5 TROUGH DRIVES H85 TEMPS BELOW 10C INTO SE WEST VA FOR
FRIDAY. JUST ENOUGH LLVL MOISTURE IN THE MODEL SOUNDINGS FOR SOME
MOUNTAIN STRATO CU ACROSS SE WEST VA...WHICH WILL PROBABLY MIX OUT
LATE DAY. SOME SPOTS ACROSS SE WEST VA MAY NOT REACH 70F. A BREEZY
DAY WITH SOME GUSTS TO 30 MPH WITH MUCH LESS CLOUDINESS ELSEWHERE.
AFTER A CHILLY SATURDAY MORNING THE DEEP BUT SKINNY TROUGH IS GONE
BY SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND WAA ENSUES. THE UPPER PATTERN WILL REMAIN
ZONAL THIS WEEKEND AS AN UPPER RIDGE MOVES EAST AND EXPANDS FROM THE
GULF COAST TO THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES. DISTURBANCES EJECTED FROM THE
CURRENT GYRE OVER THE PAC NW WILL TAKE A WEST TO EAST
ROUTE...ARRIVING BY EARLY NEXT WEEK...AND DRAWING JUST ENOUGH
MOISTURE FROM THE GULF FOR THE NEXT RAIN OPPORTUNITY SUNDAY NIGHT
INTO MONDAY. TEMPS SHOULD RETURN TO THE LOW TO MIDDLE 80S ON SUNDAY
TOO.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 1215 PM EDT THURSDAY...

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST WHILE INCREASING
HUMIDITY AND PIECES OF SHORTWAVE ENERGY MOVE ACROSS THE AREA AHEAD
OF A FRONT. THE PATTERN SUGGESTS THAT MON-TUE WILL HAVE THE BETTER
THREAT OF SHOWERS/STORMS WITH THE FRONT SHIFTING SOUTHEAST OF US BY
WEDNESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN BEHIND THIS FRONT OVER THE GREAT
LAKES SOUTH INTO THE TN VALLEY WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. THE FRONT
WILL STAY HUNG UP ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST SO THERE IS AN OUTSIDE SHOT
THAT SOME OF OUR SRN CWA COUNTIES COULD SEE A FEW SHOWERS WED OR
THU...ALTHOUGH FOR NOW LEFT IT MAINLY DRY. TEMPS ABOVE NORMAL EARLY
BECOME MORE NORMAL POST FRONTAL PASSAGE...WITH HUMIDITY DROPPING
SOME BY WED NIGHT-THU.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 135 PM EDT THURSDAY...

CONVECTIVE LINE WILL IMPACT LWB/BLF EARLY THEN ROA/LYH/DAN AFTER
19Z UNTIL ABOUT 22-23Z. CONFIDENCE HIGH THAT TERMINALS WILL BE
AFFECT ALTHOUGH LOWER AT BCB AS INDICATIONS SHOW WEAKENING BEFORE
HITTING BCB AND JUMPING MORE EAST TO THE BLUE RIDGE AND FOOTHILLS.

WINDS WILL BE THE MAIN THREAT AND GUSTS TO 40 KNOTS PLUS IS NOT
OUT OF THE QUESTION AT ROA/LYH. WHEN THE LINE GOES THROUGH EXPECT
VSBYS TO DROP TO IFR AND CIGS TO MVFR.

THE FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THE LINE WILL BE EAST OF THE CWA THIS
EVENING AND EXPECT ALL SITES TO BECOME VFR...ALTHOUGH SOME
LINGERING MVFR CIGS POSSIBLE AT BLF.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN FRIDAY AND SATURDAY RESULTING IN VFR
WEATHER. MAY SEE FOG AT THE TYPICAL LOCATIONS SUNDAY MORNING...
KLWB/KBCB...OTHERWISE VFR. LOW LEVEL SOUTHERLY FLOW RETURNS ON
SUNDAY AHEAD OF ANOTHER FRONT MOVING INTO THE MIDWEST/GREAT LAKES.
THIS WILL LIKELY BRING ISOLATED STORMS TO THE MOUNTAINS SUNDAY
AFTERNOON...WITH BETTER COVERAGE ACROSS THE REGION MONDAY AHEAD OF
THE BOUNDARY.
