AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
1153 PM EST MON MAR 4 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE SHIFTS EAST OF THE AREA TUESDAY. LOW PRESSURE WILL
TRACK EAST OUT OF THE CENTRAL ROCKIES AND ACROSS THE REGION
TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY NIGHT. THE STORM WILL REFORM AND STRENGTHEN
AS IT NEARS THE COAST WEDNESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE RETURNS THURSDAY
AND FRIDAY WITH A WARMUP THIS WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 950 PM EST MONDAY...

MADE CHANGES BACK TO MORE OF A FROZEN PTYPE NATURE GIVEN THE
COLDER/DRIER AIRMASS. HAVE HAD SOME REPORTS OF SLEET IN WATAUGA
NC. THE LOCAL WRF SHOWING SMALL NARROW LINE OF PRECIPP MOVING
ACROSS THE WRN CWA OVERNIGHT WITH THE 18Z GFS/21SREF ALSO PRINTING
OUT QPF. STILL LOOKS LIKE A LIGHT BATCH THINKING DRY AIR AIDS IN
EVAPORTING SOME OF IT. TEMPS ARE TRICKY AND THINK SEEING MORE
CLOUDS IN AFTER MIDNIGHT WILL STEADY TEMPS OUT AND MAYBE EVEN WARM
THEM TOWARD 12Z TUE.

AS FOR THE SNOW EVENT TUESDAY EVENING THRU WED...THE 12Z EC WAS
CONSISTENT IN PAINTING THE AREA ALONG/NORTH OF I-64 IN A ZONE OF
HEAVIER SNOWFALL. NOT READY TO PUNCH OUT A WARNING YET AS WOULD
LIKE TO EVALUATE THE 00Z MODELS...WITH THE LATEST NAM NOW SHOWING
SOME HIGHER QPF BUT NOT BRINGING IN THE CHANGOVER UNTIL MOST OF
THE QPF IS HEADING OUT.

MAY HAVE TO LOWER TEMPS TUESDAY GIVEN THAT WILL BE RAINY/CLOUDY
MOST OF THE DAY. MAY NOT GET OUT OF THE 30S IN THE MOUNTAINS WITH
THE CANADIAN MODEL THE COOLEST ON TEMPS.

PREVIOUS VALID DISUCUSSION...
BY TUESDAY AFTERNOON...WARM AIR WILL MIX DOWN WITH ALL
PRECIPITATION BEING RAIN. RAINFALL AMOUNTS INTO TUESDAY WILL BE A
QUARTER TO HALF OF AN INCH.

DESPITE THE RAIN FALLING...TEMPERATURES SHOULD WARM TO NORMAL
LEVELS TOMORROW AFTERNOON.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 300 PM EST MONDAY...

MODELS COMING INTO BETTER AGREEMENT WITH TIMING AND TRACK OF
WINTER STORM. MORE OF A QUESTION HOW FAST PRECIPITATION WILL
CHANGE TO SNOW ON TUESDAY EVENING. STILL LOOKING AT STRONG UPPER
DIFFLUENCE AND OTHER LIFTING MECHANISMS IN THE 03Z/10PM TUESDAY
THROUGH 09Z/4AM WEDNESDAY TIME FRAME. THE SOUTHERN SURFACE LOW
BECOMES THE PRIMARY LOW ON TUESDAY EVENING...THEN BY WEDNESDAY
MORNING WILL BE OVER NORFOLK. THIS BRINGS THE SURFACE FRONT
THROUGH THE MOUNTAINS JUST AFTER 00Z/7PM TUESDAY...AND THROUGH THE
EASTERN COUNTY WARNING AREA AROUND MIDNIGHT. DECENT SURGE OF COLD
AIR ADVECTION SHOULD COOL DOWN THE AIR MASS ENOUGH FOR SNOW
OVERNIGHT. UPPER LOW TRACKS FROM SOUTHERN ILLINOIS ON TUESDAY
EVENING TO NEAR DANVILLE BY WEDNESDAY MORNING.

ONCE THE LOW MOVES EAST OF THE FORECAST AREA...THE HEAVIEST
PRECIPITATION AND BEST LIFT EXITS. MODELS WERE STILL SHOWING SOME
DIFFERENCES WITH A DRY SLOT COMING INTO THE FORECAST AREA BY
WEDNESDAY MORNING WHICH WOULD CUT BACK PRECIPITATION
AMOUNTS...ESPECIALLY IN THE SOUTHERN COUNTY WARNING AREA. IN
CONTRAST...DEEP EAST WINDS NORTH OF THE ROANOKE RIVER WILL RESULT
IN ENHANCEMENT OF PRECIPITATION VALUES. MAY EASILY SEE LIQUID
EQUIVALENTS OF 0.50 TO INCHES FROM TUESDAY EVENING THROUGH
WEDNESDAY EVENING.

AS THE LOW DEEPENS OFF THE COAST ON WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY
NIGHT...SURFACE AND LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL BECOME NORTHWEST AND WILL
GENERATE UPSLOPE SNOW SHOWERS IN THE MOUNTAINS. THE WINTER STORM
WATCH TAKES ACCUMULATIONS FROM THESE SNOW SHOWERS INTO ACCOUNT AS
WELL AS ANY SNOWFALL TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY.

BUFKIT SHOWED A POTENTIAL FOR ADVISORY LEVEL WINDS...MAINLY IN
THE 35 TO 45 MPH RANGE AT HIGHER ELEVATIONS BEHIND THE COLD FRONT
ON TUESDAY NIGHT AND CONTINUING INTO WEDNESDAY WITH THE LOW
DEEPENING OFF THE COAST. THURSDAY WINDS AND UPSLOPE SNOW SHOWERS
WILL DIMINISH.

HOURLY TEMPERATURE TREND TUESDAY NIGHT IS EXPECTED TO FOLLOW A
NON DIURNAL TREND...NOT DROPPING SIGNIFICANTLY UNTIL THE FRONT
GOES THROUGH. OTHERWISE STAYED WELL BELOW GUIDANCE THROUGH
THURSDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 330 PM EST MONDAY...

SNOW SHOWER ACTIVITY TO CONTINUE TO WIND DOWN THURSDAY NIGHT...
HOWEVER EXPECT WE WILL STILL SEE A FEW LEFTOVER SHOWERS ACROSS THE
WESTERN HALF OF GREENBRIER COUNTY IN WEST VIRGINIA THAT WILL LAST
INTO FRIDAY EVENING. ELSEWHERE ACROSS THE REGION...AN UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE BUILDING IN FROM THE PLAINS WILL RESULT IN WARMING
TEMPERATURES HEADING INTO THE WEEKEND. THE COMBINATION OF THIS
WARMING TREND...WITH SATURDAY AND SUNDAY HIGHS REACHING INTO THE
50S AREAWIDE...AND ABUNDANT SUNSHINE AS HIGH PRESSURE DOMINATES
THE LOW LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE WILL ALLOW MOST OF THE SNOW TO
MELT BEFORE THE WEEK ENDS.

CLOUD COVER WILL INCREASE ON SUNDAY AS OUR NEXT LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM APPROACHES FROM THE WEST...AFFECTING THE AREA EARLY IN THE
FOLLOWING WORKWEEK.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 1148 PM EST MONDAY...

NOT A LOT OF CHANGE IN TERMS OF FLIGHT RULES. MAY SEE SOME
SLEET/SNOW THIS MORNING MAINLY ACROSS ROA/BCB/BLF/LWB...BUT SHOULD
KEEP CIGS ABOVE 3KFT.

THINGS WARM UP THROUGH THE MORNING WITH PRECIP CHANGING TO RAIN.
THE STEADIER RAINS ARRIVE IN THE AFTERNOON WHERE CIGS/VSBY START
TO FALL UNDER VFR. OVERALL KEEPING IT MVFR WITH SOME HIGH END IFR
VSBYS AT BLF/BCB/LWB.

CIGS/VSBYS DROP TO BELOW MVFR BY 00Z WEDNESDAY AS THE LOW DEEPENS
SENDING A LOT OF RAIN INTO THE AREA. COLDER AIR SWINGS IN CHANGING
RAIN TO SNOW BY THE END OF THE TAF PERIOD.

.EXTENDED AVIATION...
STRONG LOW PRESSURE MOVES FROM EASTERN KENTUCKY TUESDAY
EVENING...WITH SECONDARY LOW FORMING AROUND MIDNIGHT IN NORTH
CAROLINA. MAINLY GOING TO SEE POOR FLYING CONDITIONS WITH RAIN
CHANGING BACK TO SNOW WITH THE HEAVIER SNOW WORKING ALONG AND
NORTH OF A LINE FROM BKW-ROA-LYH...ALTHOUGH CANNOT RULE OUT SOME
HEAVIER SNOW AT TIMES IN BCB/BLF/MKJ. STILL IFR OR WORSE EXPECTED
THROUGH AT LEAST WEDNESDAY MORNING...WITH MAYBE IMPROVING CIGS AND
VSBYS IN THE EAST AFTER 18Z WED WITH A STRONG NNW TO NW WIND.

THE WINDS WILL BE STAYING UP AT LEAST INTO THURSDAY WHILE BLF/LWB
REMAIN AT MVFR OR LOWER. SHOULD SEE THEM IMPROVE TOWARD THU
NIGHT-FRI AS HIGH PRESSURE MOVES IN FROM THE WEST. MILDER WEATHER
AND VFR CONDITIONS CLOSE OUT THE WEEK AND CONTINUES INTO SATURDAY.
