AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
131 PM EDT WED JUN 26 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
BERMUDA HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE A WARM MOIST SUBTROPICAL
FEED OF AIR INTO THE MID ATLANTIC REGION THIS AFTERNOON INTO
THURSDAY AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE NORTHWEST.
THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS EXPECTED TO SLOW DOWN AND EVENTUALLY
STALL SOMEWHERE OVER THE MID-ATLANTIC REGION THIS WEEKEND AS IT
ENCOUNTERS THE BERMUDA HIGH WHICH IS NOT EXPECTED TO MOVE VERY
MUCH FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. THIS REGIME WILL PROMOTE A DAILY
THREAT OF SHOWERS AND STORMS INTO THE WEEKEND.
&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 1030 AM WEDNESDAY...

DECREASING POPS FOR THE FIRST HALF OF THE MORNING...THEN AMPING UP
POPS ACROSS THE SOUTHWEST (MTN EMPIRE) WHERE ACTIVITY IS
APPROACHING FROM KENTUCKY. LINEAR TIMING HAS THESE STORMS
ENTERING AROUND NOON. LOW CLOUDS ALONG WESTERN SLOPES SHOULD KEEP
THESE STORMS FROM BECOMING TO STRONG THROUGH THE MORNING.
WESTERLY FLOW ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS MAY HAVE THESE STORMS
DECREASING IN AREAL COVERAGE THROUGH THE REST OF THE
MORNING...THEN RE-FIRING TOWARDS THE BLUE RIDGE AND/OR FOOTHILLS
EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...CAPE VALUES ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS
THIS MORNING ARE IN THE RANGE OF 1500 (NORTH) TO NEAR 3000
(SOUTH). EVEN THOUGH STORM COVERAGE MAY DECREASE...A FEW MAY
BECOME STRONG TO SEVERE CROSSING THE MOUNTAIN EMPIRE INTO THE
GRAYSON/NW NC HIGHLANDS AND SOUTHERN NEW RIVER VALLEY.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...AS OF 500 AM WEDNESDAY...

SHOWERS/STORMS ONGOING ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY THIS MORNING PER
UPPER LEVEL TROF OVER THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES. MYRIAD OF
MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE SYSTEMS (MCS) HAVE EVOLVED OVER TIME WITH
CLUSTERS OF STORMS AND LINE SEGMENTS MOVING EAST ACROSS
IL/IN/OH/PA. THIS MCS LADEN ENVIRONMENT WHICH RESIDES JUST
UPSTREAM OF OUR AREA CREATES FORECAST TIMING CHALLENGES BEYOND
WHAT ANY MODEL CAN RESOLVE. THE ENVIRONMENT TODAY AND TONIGHT WILL
CERTAINLY SUPPORT DEEP CONVECTION...BUT DOUBT MODELS WILL BE ABLE
TO TIME EVERY LITTLE MCS THAT GETS GENERATED. AS SUCH...HAVE TO
TAKE MORE OF A SHOT GUN APPROACH FOR POPS UNTIL RADAR TRENDS
SUPPORT OTHERWISE. WE THINK ITS A GIVEN THAT SHOWERS/STORMS WILL
FORM IN THE USUAL PLACES THIS AFTERNOON...WITH FOCUS ALONG THE
BLUE RIDGE EARLY-MID AFTERNOON AND INTO THE PIEDMONT THIS
EVENING. TIMING OF THE ACTIVITY THAT MOVES IN FROM THE OHIO VALLEY
WILL DEPEND LARGELY ON HOW INTACT THE MORNING OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES
AND ASSOCIATED MESOSCALE VORTICIES (MCV) PROPAGATE THIS AFTERNOON.
CORFIDI VECTOR FORECAST THIS AFTERNOON SUGGEST ANY UPSTREAM
ACTIVITY WOULD BE MOVING ON A 270-290 DEGREE TRAJECTORY...THUS WE
COULD VERY WELL BE LOOKING AT THE ARRIVAL OF SOMETHING FROM THAT
GENERAL DIRECTION...ENTERING OUR NORTHWESTERN CWA AS EARLY AS THIS
AFTERNOON. MODELS SUGGEST A LATER TIMING...OF AFTER MIDNIGHT
TONIGHT...BUT I WOULD NOT PUT A LOT OF CREDENCE ON THE SYNOPTIC
MODELS IN THIS SORT OF SITUATION.

LOCAL ENVIRONMENT...PER FULL INSOLATION TODAY...SHOULD YIELD
MODERATE TO STRONG INSTABILITY. THIS WILL FUEL PULSE STORMS FOR
THE ACTIVITY THAT DEVELOPS INOF THE BLUE RIDGE AND LEE TROF
CONVERGENCE...IN ADDITION TO ANY ORGANIZED MCS ACTIVITY THAT MOVES
DOWNSTREAM FROM THE OHIO VALLEY. THAT SAID...THE ACTIVITY THAT
FORMS LEE OF THE BLUE RIDGE AND MOVES INTO THE PIEDMONT SHOULD
FADE WITH LOSS OF DIURNAL HEATING. HOWEVER...ANY ORGANIZED ACTIVITY
THAT MOVES DOWNSTREAM FROM THE OHIO VALLEY WILL NOT...AS IT WILL
BE DRIVEN BY STRONGER DYNAMICS FROM THE APPROACHING UPPER LEVEL
TROF. FOR TONIGHT...MAINTAINED SOMEWHAT HIGHER THREAT FOR
STORMS...ESP THE NORTHWESTERN CWA...PER INCREASING THREAT THAT MCS
RELATED FEATURES WILL REACH OUR CWA EVEN DURING THE OVERNIGHT
HOURS.

TEMPERATURES TODAY AND TONIGHT...VERY SIMILAR TO THE LAST 48
HOURS. USED PERSISTENCE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 430 AM EDT WEDNESDAY...

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE SCATTERED TO WIDESPREAD ON
THURSDAY AS A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVES EASTWARD NEAR THE OHIO RIVER
VALLEY...DRAGGING A COLD FRONT ACROSS OUR AREA DURING THE AFTERNOON
AND EVENING. DESPITE THE SPOTTY CONVECTION DEVELOPING DURING LATE
MORNING...BELIEVE WE WILL START THE DAY WITH ENOUGH SUNSHINE AND
HEATING TO ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO CLIMB INTO THE UPPER 80S AND LOW
90S ACROSS THE EAST...WHILE HIGHS WILL REACH INTO THE LOW TO MID 80S
ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS. THE HEATING...WHEN COMBINED WITH CONVERGENCE
AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT...WILL ALLOW SOME STORMS TO BECOME
SEVERE...AND BELIEVE WE WILL SEE A SLIGHTLY STRONGER SEVERE THREAT
ACROSS THE PIEDMONTS THURSDAY EVENING...WITH BOTH WIND AND HAIL AS
PRIMARY THREATS. AS WE APPROACH LATE EVENING...SHOWER AND
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL BEGIN TO WANE WITH THE LOSS OF DAYTIME
HEATING. HOWEVER THE EASTWARD MOVEMENT OF THE FRONT WILL BEGIN TO
STALL ACROSS THE COASTAL PLAIN THURSDAY NIGHT...PROVIDING FOCUS FOR
ADDITIONAL CONVECTION THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK.

ON FRIDAY...UPPER LEVEL FLOW WILL BECOME INCREASINGLY NORTHWESTERLY
AS A LARGE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE BECOMES ESTABLISHED ACROSS THE
ROCKIES...WHILE AN UPPER LOW SETTLES ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES. AS
SUCH...EXPECT ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP FRIDAY
AND SATURDAY AFTERNOONS AS HEATING INCREASES...WHICH WILL CONTINUE
THROUGH SUNSET BEFORE DIMINISHING WITH THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING.
SOME STORMS WILL BE STRONG TO SEVERE...AND CAPABLE OF PRODUCING
GUSTY WINDS AND LARGE HAIL...IN ADDITION TO LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN.
PATCHY DENSE FOG WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE EACH NIGHT IN THE RIVER
VALLEYS AND ACROSS AREAS WHICH RECEIVED SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL THE
EVENING BEFORE.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 315 PM EDT TUESDAY...

AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL RESIDE OVER THE WESTERN UNITED STATES FOR
SUNDAY...WHILE A BROAD UPPER LEVEL TROUGH HOLDS OVER THE GREAT LAKES
AND THE MID ATLANTIC. BECAUSE OF THIS OVERALL PATTERN...UNSETTLED
WEATHER WILL CONTINUE INTO THE EARLY PART OF NEXT WEEK...AS SMALL
DISTURBANCES PASS OVERHEAD AROUND THE PERIPHERY OF THE TROUGH.
CHANCES OF THUNDERSTORMS DUE TO DIURNAL HEATING...FAVORABLE DYNAMICS
ALOFT...AND OROGRAPHIC LIFT ALONG THE BLUE RIDGE...WILL REMAIN
PREVALENT IN THE AFTERNOONS AND EVENINGS...BEFORE EVENTUAL TAPERING
TO SHOWERS DURING THE NIGHTS AND MORNINGS.

BOTH THE 12Z GFS AND THE 00Z ECMWF DEPICT THE TROUGH RETROGRADING
SLIGHTLY BY MONDAY AND TUESDAY. THUS...THIS TREND OF UNSETTLED
WEATHER DOES NOT APPEAR TO HAVE A CLEAR END IN SIGHT INTO THE
FOLLOWING WEEK. FAIRLY SIGNIFICANT CLOUD COVER...DEWPOINTS IN THE
60S...AND THE OVERHEAD TROUGH...WILL KEEP THE DIURNAL RANGE LIMITED
WITH REGARD TO TEMPERATURES...WHICH WERE KEPT IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH
THE LATEST HPC GUIDANCE.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 110 PM EDT WEDNESDAY...

BROKEN AREA OF CONVECTION SLOWLY MOVING INTO WESTERN AREAS ATTM
WITH GREATEST IMPACT TO THE KBLF/KLWB SITES CURRENTLY AND PERHAPS
KBCB/KROA AFTER 19Z/2PM. THESE SHRA/TSRA WILL LIKELY BRING A
PERIOD OF MVFR/OCNL IFR TO THE WESTERN LOCATIONS THIS AFTERNOON
WITH LESS COVERAGE FARTHER EAST WHERE WILL CONTINUE WITH A VCTS
MENTION. GUSTY WINDS ALSO POSSIBLE SO INCLUDING BRIEF GUSTS WITH
SOME OF THE STRONGER STORMS ESPCLY NEAR KBLF IN THE NEXT HOUR OR
TWO. IF THE AREA OF CONVECTION ORGANIZES MORE THEN COULD BE
LOOKING AT MORE WIDESPREAD MVFR/IFR FARTHER EAST WITH SHRA
LINGERING INTO THE EVENING...BUT TOO IFFY TO EXTEND PREVAILING
TSRA COVERAGE TO KDAN ATTM.

OTRW EXPECTING SHOWERS TO SLOWLY FADE AFTER SUNSET GIVING WAY TO
PATCHY FOG ESPCLY WHERE AFTERNOON RAINFALL OCCURRED. HOWEVER NEXT
UPSTREAM MCS POSES THE THREAT FOR ADDED SHRA/TSRA AFTER MIDNIGHT
AND ESPCLY OVER THE WEST BY DAYBREAK THURSDAY. FASTER MOVEMENT
THAN PROGGED COULD CAUSE SHRA TO RUN EARLIER THAN MOST BUFKIT
MODEL PROGS. THUS KEEPING A PREVAILING SHRA ACROSS SE WVA LATE
TONIGHT WITH VCTS MENTION AS TSRA POSSIBLE GIVEN UPPER SUPPORT
DESPITE BEING LATE AT NIGHT. WILL CARRY THIS PROBABLE BAND OF
CONVECTION EAST TO KBCB EARLY THURSDAY AND THEN ONLY INCLUDE A
VCSH ELSW IN THE MORNING WHERE CONFIDENCE IS LOWER IN SEEING THE
SYSTEM CROSS THE BLUE RIDGE FOR NOW. ONCE THIS PASSES EXPECTING
MOSTLY VFR IN SCTD/BKN CU NEAR OR AFTER THE END OF THE VALID TAF
PERIOD THURSDAY AFTERNOON.

.AVIATION EXTENDED...

WE WILL BE TRANSITIONING FROM A FLAT UPPER RIDGE TO A BLOCKY
PATTERN...WITH AN EASTERN CONUS TROF/WESTERN CONUS RIDGE...THROUGH
THE EXTENDED PERIOD. SFC HIGH OFF THE EAST COAST WILL KEEP WARM AND
MOIST AIR OVER THE REGION WITH A SERIES OF WAVES RIPPLING THROUGH
THE FLOW. THIS WILL PRIMARILY LEAVE US WITH AN UNSTABLE AIRMASS IN A
WEAKLY FORCED CONVECTIVE ENVIRONMENT THROUGH MONDAY. EXPECT A
DIURNAL PATTERN OF CONVECTION WITH VFR IN THE MORNING...THEN MVFR
WITH SHRA/TSRA IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVE...THEN POSSIBLE IFR WITH
NOCTURNAL FOG/STRATUS.
&&

.EQUIPMENT...
KFCX RADAR IS CURRENTLY BACK OPERATIONAL BUT IS BEING MONITORED
FOR ADDITIONAL PEDESTAL FAULT ISSUES...WHICH COULD CAUSE THE
RECEIVER TO GO INTO STANDBY MODE.
