AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
1241 PM EST TUE NOV 26 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
A DEEP AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL TRACK FROM THE SOUTH CENTRAL U.S.
TO OFF THE DELMARVA PENINSULA BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON BRINGING A
VARIETY OF INCLEMENT WEATHER TO THE REGION IN THE FORM OF FREEZING
RAIN THIS MORNING...HEAVY RAIN THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING...FOLLOWED BY SNOW AND STRONG WINDS LATER TONIGHT AND
WEDNESDAY. VERY COLD TEMPERATURES WILL FOLLOW THIS WEATHER SYSTEM
FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. BY THE WEEKEND...HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD
INTO THE REGION WITH MODERATING TEMPERATURES.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 1135 AM EST TUESDAY...

DROPPED MOST OF THE WINTER ADVISORIES FOR TODAY EXCEPT FOR FAR
NORTH SINCE TEMPS HAVE CLIMBED TO ABOVE FREEZING AND ANY
LINGERING POCKETS OF FREEZING RAIN IN THE FOOTHILLS AND PIEDMONT
WILL BE VERY ISOLATED AND CONFINED TO TREES...IF AT ALL. MAY BE
ABLE TO DROP THE NORTHERN ONE AS WELL IN AN HOUR OR SO.

WITH VERY STRONG AND ANOMALOUS MOISTURE TRANSPORT AND A 50-70 KT
850 JET LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...HAVE GONE WITH A FLOOD
WATCH MAINLY FOR UPSLOPE ENHANCED RAINFALL ABOUT OE COUNTY WIDTH
EITHER SIDE OF THE BLUE RIDGE. CONCERNED ABOUT SOME RAINFALL RATES
OF OVER AN INCH AN HOUR AT TIMES ON TOP OF WHAT IS NOW SATURATED
GROUND. SEE HYDRO DISCUSSION BELOW.

ALSO WITH THIS 850 SOUTHERLY JET...AM CONCERNED ABOUT WINDS AT
RIDGE TOP LEVEL RIGHT ALONG BLUE RIDGE FROM LATE THIS AFTERNOON
THROUGH EVENING. WILL BE FAIRLY SHORT-LIVED EVENT...AND WINDS WILL
NOT MIX INTO LOW ELEVATIONS...BUT RIGHT ALONG THE RIDDGE NEAR THE
PARKWAY THERE COULD BE TREES DOWN...ESPECIALLY WITH WET GROUND.
THIS MAKES FOR VERY MESSY NPW PRODUCT GIVEN THE ADVISORY WE STILL
HAVE GOING FOR TOMORROW...BUT THIS WILL BE CONFINED TO VERY
ISOLATED AREAS AT THOSE HIGHEST RIDGES.

OTHERWISE ADDED FOG TO MOST OF FCST AREA SINCE VSBYS SHOULD REMAIN
LOW IN VALLEYS AND UPSLOPE AREAS FROM THE SE TO S FLOW THROUGH
THIS EVENING.

PREV DISCUSSION AS OF 930 AM EST TUESDAY...

TEMPERATURES HAVE WARMED TO ABOVE FREEZING ACROSS MUCH OF THE
HIGHER ELEVATIONS...BUT REMAIN AT OR JUST BELOW FREEZING IN MTN
VALLEYS AND PARTS OF FOOTHILLS AND PIEDMONT. COULD DROP THE ADV IN
THE MTNS NOW...BUT IN AN HOUR OR SO THE HEAVIER PRECIP WILL HELP
BRING WARMER TEMPS ALOFT DOWN TO THE SURFACE AND ALL PRECIP WILL
CHANGE TO RAIN ELSEWHERE...BY ABOUT 11AM TO NOON WILL LIKELY DROP
ALL ADVISORIES FOR FREEZING RAIN. SO LATEST GRID UPDATE JUST TO
INCREASE TEMPS AT THOSE HIGHER ELEVATIONS...AND TO INCREASE QPF
AMOUNTS IN THE WEST AND ALONG THE BLUE RIDGE A LITTLE BIT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 535 AM EST MONDAY...

MODELS ARE IN VERY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE NORTHERN AND SOUTHERN
BEGINNING TO PHASE TUESDAY NIGHT AND BECOME ONE SYSTEM WEDNESDAY.
THE UPPER LEVEL LOW TRACKING ALONG THE GULF COAST WILL OPEN OVER THE
TENNESSEE VALLEY AND MERGE WITH THE NORTHERN STREAM TROUGH ENTERING
THE OHIO VALLEY BY WEDNESDAY MORNING. THE GULF SURFACE LOW WILL MOVE
INLAND OVER GEORGIA TUESDAY EVENING...THEN TRACK NORTHEAST ALONG THE
LEE SIDE OF THE APPALACHIAN MOUNTAINS EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING. AS THE
NORTHERN STREAM TROUGH BECOMES DOMINATE...A SECONDARY SURFACE LOW IS
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP OVER THE VIRGINIA TUESDAY NIGHT...THEN TRACKS TO
NEW ENGLAND ON WEDNESDAY.

THE HEAVY RAIN ASSOCIATED WITH THE SURFACE AND SHORT WAVES WILL
ENCOMPASS THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA TUESDAY NIGHT THEN TAPER WEST TO
EAST WEDNESDAY MORNING. AS THIS RAIN MOVES EAST...COLD AIR WILL
BEGIN TO ENTER THE MOUNTAINS DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS
WEDNESDAY. THIS COLD AIR AND A DEFORMATION ZONE TRACKING ALONG THE
WESTERN APPALACHIANS WILL BRING ACCUMULATING SNOW OF 3 TO 6 INCHES TO
THE MOUNTAINS WITH LOCAL HIGHER AMOUNTS POSSIBLE ALONG HIGHER
RIDGES. LOW CONFIDENCE ON AMOUNTS...THEREFORE ONLY WENT WITH A
WINTER STORM WATCH INSTEAD OF AN ADVISORY OR WARNING. AREAL
EXPANSION TO THE EAST IS ALSO POSSIBLE. ONCE THIS DEFORMATION ZONE
EXITS WEDNESDAY EVENING...PRESSURE GRADIENT TIGHTENS TO BRING STRONG
AND GUSTY WINDS TO COUNTIES ALONG THE BLUE RIDGE. ISSUED A WIND
ADVISORY FOR COUNTIES NOT IN THE WINTER STORM WATCH AND EMBEDDED
WIND INFORMATION TO COUNTIES IN THE WINTER STORM WATCH. NORTHWEST
UPSLOPE FLOW WILL BRING LIGHT ACCUMULATIONS TO WESTERN SLOPES OF SE
WV INTO WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 1245 PM EDT MONDAY...

LARGE SCALE PATTERN TRANSITIONS TO ZONAL FLOW WITH SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE IN CONTROL THROUGH THE WEEKEND. THIS RESULTS IN SLOWLY
MODERATING TEMPERATURES...YET SHOULD REMAIN BELOW SEASONABLE
AVERAGES EVEN BY SUNDAY. ALSO THINKING HIGHER CLOUDS WILL BECOME
MORE PREVALENT BY SUNDAY WHICH WOULD KEEP HIGHS DOWN SOMEWHAT. LONG
TERM MODELS GENERALLY IN AGREEMENT THAT NEXT WEATHER SYSTEM WILL
MATERIALIZE IN THE SOUTHERN PLAINS LATE SUNDAY AND THEN QUICKLY
APPROACHING THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS FROM THE SOUTHWEST ON MONDAY.
RIGHT NOW THE 00Z ECWMF IS A LITTLE FASTER THAN THE 12Z GFS AND
GIVEN THE GENERALLY ZONAL FLOW PATTERN THIS FASTER IDEA IS
FAVORED...ESPECIALLY AS A STRONGER SYSTEM DIGS INTO THE WESTERN U.S.
AND EJECTS THIS WAVE OUT ACROSS THE PLAINS AND TOWARDS THE
APPALACHIANS. THE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE WEAKENING AND RETREATING AS
THIS SYSTEM APPROACHES BY EARLY MONDAY BUT AIRMASS APPEARS THAT IT
WILL MODERATE ENOUGH SO THAT PRECIP TYPE REMAINS JUST RAIN. HOWEVER
IT WILL BE WORTH KEEPING AN EYE ON THE TIMING OF PRECIP ARRIVAL AND
STRENGTH OF LINGERING HIGH...AS WELL AS HOW LOW INITIAL WET BULB
TEMPERATURES ARE WHEN PRECIP ARRIVES.  CANT RULE OUT SOME POCKETS OF
FREEZING RAIN IF THIS COMES IN OVERNIGHT...BUT AT THIS POINT STILL A
LONG WAY OFF.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 1130 AM EST TUESDAY...

VERY POOR AVIATION CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH THE TAF VALID
PERIOD WITH COMBINATION WAA/WEDGE EVENT...THEN DEVELOPMENT OF A
DEEP COASTAL LOW/NOREASTER BY WEDNESDAY. WE BEGIN WITH WIDESPREAD
-RA/RA AND BR WITH CIGS AT OR NEAR IFR/LIFR. VSBYS SHOULD HOLD
MOST OF THE DAY IN THE IFR/MVFR RANGE AS WELL...ALTHOUGH THEY
COULD EASILY FLUCTUATE INTO LIFR IN HEAVY RAIN. RAIN THEN CHANGES
TO A SIGNIFICANT UPSLOPE EVENT AFTER 04Z WED WITH PERHAPS A
TRAILING DEFORMATION BAND OF SNOW WORKING EAST TOWARD THE BLUE
RIDGE WED MORNING. THIS MAY RESULT IN SEVERAL INCHES OF SNOW
AROUND KBLF/KLWB BY WED MORNING WITH 1-2 INCHES OF SNOW POSSIBLE
AS FAR EAST AS BCB. RAIN WILL END ACROSS THE PIEDMONT AS DOWNSLOPE
MOVES IN BEHIND THE COLD FRONT. WIND WILL ALSO BECOME AN ISSUE WED
WITH WIND GUSTS TO 30-40 KTS OR MORE WED AS A THE COASTAL LOW
DEVELOPS.

RAPID IMPROVEMENT IN CONDITIONS EXPECTED THURSDAY AS THE STORM
SYSTEM PULLS AWAY AND DRIER AIR WORKS IN...RESULTING IN WIDESPREAD
VFR CONDITIONS. VFR THEN CONTINUES UNDER HIGH PRESSURE FOR FRIDAY
THROUGH SATURDAY.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
AS OF 1130 AM EST TUESDAY...

STILL IN THE OPENING STAGES OF WHAT LOOKS TO BE A FAIRLY COMPLEX
HYDRO EVENT. 24-HOUR LIQUID AMOUNTS THROUGH 12Z WERE QUITE
MODEST...GENERALLY 0.25 TO 0.50 INCHES ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HALF OF
THE CWA. THE NEXT 24 HOURS WILL FEATURE HEAVY RAINFALL..THAT MUCH
SEEMS ASSURED WITH ONGOING RAINFALL AND TREMENDOUS MOISTURE
TRANSPORT FORECAST ACROSS THE BLUE RIDGE AND FOOTHILLS. MOISTURE
TRANSPORT ANOMALIES UP TO 5 STANDARD DEVIATIONS SHOWN BY THE NAM
DURING PORTIONS OF THE NEXT 24 HOURS WHICH RAISES SOME ALARMS.
BUFKIT FORECAST SOUNDING SHOW PWAT 1.4 TO 1.6 AT KGSO BY 00Z THIS
EVENING WHICH IS CLOSE TO 99TH PERCENTILE OF BUNKERS CLIMO FOR PWAT
THERE. SO TOTAL QPF IN THE 2 TO 4 INCH RANGE STILL SEEMS QUITE
LIKELY BY TONIGHT WITH HIGHER AMOUNTS FOCUSED ALONG THE FAVORED
UPSLOPE AREAS OF THE BLUE RIDGE.

HOWEVER THIS DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE MAINSTEM RIVER FLOOD PROBLEM AT
THIS POINT GIVEN THE RIVER FORECAST CENTER GUIDANCE FROM ALL OF THE
FOUR RFCS AS OF 12Z THIS MORNING. NONE OF OUR FORECAST POINTS FROM
ANY RFC ARE DRIVEN TO FLOOD STAGE WITH THE CURRENT QPF WHICH RANGES
FROM 2 TO 3 INCHES ACROSS NEARLY ALL THE BASINS BY 18Z TOMORROW
11/27 WHICH WILL COMPRISE THE PERIOD OF HYDROLOGICALLY SIGNIFICANT
RAINFALL. RIVERS WILL OBVIOUSLY BE ON THE RISE AND A FEW MAY
APPROACH BANKFULL OR ACTION STAGE (GENERALLY A FEW FEET BELOW FLOOD
STAGE). BUT THE EXTREMELY DRY ANTECEDENT CONDITIONS OF THE PAST 2
MONTHS ARE CLEARLY A MITIGATING FACTOR IN THE RIVER FLOOD FORECASTS.
STILL WILL HAVE TO CLOSELY MONITOR RIVER TRENDS VERSUS THE FORECAST
ONCE RIVERS BEGIN TO RESPOND AS HYDROLOGIC MODELS OFTEN STRUGGLE IN
HANDLING THE RUNOFF OF HEAVY RAINFALL AFTER AN EXTENDED DRY PERIOD
SUCH AS WE HAVE EXPERIENCED.

YET HYDROLOGIC ISSUES ON SMALLER BASINS MAY STILL OCCUR DUE TO
SEVERAL FACTORS. ALTHOUGH RAINFALL RATES WILL NOT BE PARTICULARLY
HIGH THEY WILL GENERALLY RANGE FROM 0.10 TO 0.25 INCHES PER HOUR FOR
AN EXTENDED DURATION AND THERE IS SOME POSSIBILITY OF ELEVATED
CONVECTION (ALTHOUGH MAINLY EAST OF CWA) WHICH COULD BUMP RATES UP
CLOSER TO 1 INCH PER HOUR. IT MAY BE DIFFICULT TO EXCEED FFG VALUES
IN THE 1-HR AND 3-HR TIME FRAMES BUT 6-HR FFG RANGES FROM 2.5 TO 3.5
INCHES AND COULD BE LOCALLY EXCEEDED IN SOME AREAS. THIS FALLING ON
TOP OF WHAT MAY BE A SATURATED SURFACE LAYER COULD EASILY LEAD TO
POCKETS OF AT LEAST MINOR FLOODING.  FALL DEBRIS CAN BE QUITE
EFFECTIVE IN PRODUCING CULVERT BLOCKAGES WHICH CAN ALSO CAUSE MINOR
FLOODING ON ROADWAYS WHERE RUNOFF IS BLOCKED. FOR THESE REASONS A
FLOOD WATCH WILL BE ISSUED THROUGH 6AM BUT MORE FOR SMALL STREAM AND
ROADWAY FLOODING THAN FOR RIVER FLOODING.
