16What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Blacksburg, VA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 19, 3:45 PM EDT, 20 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 19, 3:45 PM EDT, 20 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA 345 PM EDT THU JUN 19 2014 .SYNOPSIS... A WEAK COLD FRONT ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY WILL DRIFT SOUTH INTO THE AREA THIS EVENING BEFORE STALLING ACROSS THE MID ATLANTIC REGION TONIGHT. UPPER DISTURBANCES RIDING ALONG THE FRONT WILL RESULT IN PERIODS OF SHOWERS AND STORMS AS THE BOUNDARY MEANDERS OVER THE AREA THROUGH THE WEEKEND. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/... AS OF 300 PM EDT THURSDAY... CLUSTERS OF STORMS CONTINUE TO FIRE MAINLY OVER THE SOUTH AND EAST ALONG THE EARLIER OUTFLOW THAT MOVED SE OUT OF THE APPALACHIANS. IMPRESSIVE INSTABILITY OF 3K J/KG CAPE WILL LIKELY KEEP STORMS GOING WITH PERHAPS COVERAGE SHIFTING BACK INTO THE SW WHERE BETTER CONVERGENCE LOOKS TO LINGER INTO THE EVENING...AND OUT EAST AS VORT TAIL WITH MVC PASSING NRN VA INTERACTS WITH THE CURRENT LEE TROF. THUS WILL KEEP LIKELY POPS GOING IN THESE SPOTS PRIMARILY WHERE THE WATCH CONTINUES UNTIL 10 PM. ELSW...ESPCLY FROM THE NEW RIVER/ROA VALLEYS AND POINTS NORTH...EXPECT ONLY RENEWED SCATTERED COVERAGE WHERE HAVE BEEN WORKED OVER OR CONTINUE TO BE LIMITED BY LOW LEVEL WEST WINDS. WEAK SURFACE COOL FRONT TO THE NORTH WORKS SOUTH INTO THE REGION OVERNIGHT AND THEN STALLS OVER THE SW BY MORNING. GUIDANCE SHOWING A BREAK IN COVERAGE BY MIDNIGHT AS THE WAVE TO THE NE EXITS BUT EXPECT SOME LINGERING COVERAGE SW THIRD GIVEN THE FRONT NEARBY. DEVELOPING LOW LEVEL NE FLOW ALSO LIKELY TO BRING IN MORE STABILITY AND PERHAPS LOW CLOUDS TO EASTERN SECTIONS LATE WHERE CUT POPS TO ISOLATED AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH LINGERING 30ISH SW. LOWS MAINLY IN THE MID TO UPPER 60S PENDING EARLIER RAINFALL WITH SOME FOG AROUND. BOUNDARY REMAINS STALLED OUT FRIDAY MORNING BUT THEN STARTS TO LIFT BACK NE DURING THE AFTERNOON WITH THE APPROACH OF ANOTHER WAVE TO THE NW. LATEST MODELS SHOWING A DECENT SWATH OF SHRA/TSRA WESTERN HALF IN THE AFTERNOON WITH COVERAGE SPREADING EAST DESPITE LACK OF DEEP INSTABILITY ESPCLY OFF THE NAM. WILL GROUP HIGHER LIKELY POPS OVER THE WESTERN THIRD WHILE KEEPING CHANCE COVERAGE BLUE RIDGE EAST WHERE MAY BE IN A WEAK WEDGE SETUP UNTIL LATER IN THE AFTERNOON. WENT CLOSER TO THE SLIGHTLY COOLER MET MOS TEMPS FOR HIGHS AS THINK MANY SPOTS WILL HAVE MORE CLOUD COVER TO INIT THAN SEEN IN RECENT DAYS. HOWEVER STILL 80S MOST LOCATIONS. && .SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/... AS OF 253 PM EDT THURSDAY... SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL DRIFT OFF THE VIRGINIA COAST FRIDAY EVENING...MEANWHILE AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL RETROGRADE WESTWARD ACROSS THE SOUTHERN MISSISSIPPI VALLEY TO THE TEXAS GULF COAST. THE MOVEMENT OF THESE RIDGES SHOULD ALLOW FOR A SLOW MOVING MESOSCALE COMPLEX TO TRACK FROM THE OHIO VALLEY INTO THE COMMON WEALTH OF VIRGINIA. AT THIS TIME...BULK OF THE STRONG DYNAMICS TRACKS FROM WEST-CENTRAL VIRGINIA (HIGHLAND COUNTY) AT 06Z SATURDAY CURVING SOUTHEAST TO NORFOLK VA BY 18Z SATURDAY. THE TRACK OF THIS DISTURBANCE REMAINS ALONG THE THETA-E BOUNDARY BUT DIFFERS BETWEEN MODELS. IF THIS DISTURBANCE TRACKS ALONG SAID COURSE...POINTS NORTH OF THE VA/NC BORDER WILL EXPERIENCE STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY. AREAS SOUTH WILL SEE SCATTERED CONVECTION WITH STRONGER STORMS NOT MOVING ACROSS THE AREA UNTIL LATE SATURDAY AFTERNOON. AN OVERNIGHT CROSSING OF THIS STORM FAVORS THE AREA FOR LESS OF A WIDESPREAD EVENT WITH LOSS OF HEATING...HOWEVER INSTABILITIES AND DYNAMICS STILL EXISTS FOR A BUSY WEATHER PERIOD. SPC DOES NOT HAVE THE AREA IN A SLIGHT RISK...BUT THAT COULD CHANCE IF MODEL TRACK CONTINUES FOLLOWING LATEST TRENDS. ONCE THIS DISTURBANCE EXITS THE AREA...A SLIGHT COOLER AND DRY AIRMASS WILL TEMPORARY BUILD OVER THE REGION SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND NIGHT. SOUTHEAST FLOW INTO THE DISTURBANCE AND ACROSS THE AREA WILL KEEP TEMPERATURES MUGGY WITH READINGS IN THE M60S TO L70S. DEPENDING ON THE SPEED OF THE SYSTEM AND AREAL COVERAGE OF SHOWERS...LIKELY TO SEE HIGHS IN THE L/M 80S POSSIBLY L90S ACROSS NW NC. && .LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/... AS OF 300 PM EDT THURSDAY... ONCE THE FRIDAY NIGHT/SATURDAY DISTURBANCE TRACKS SOUTHEAST OF THE AREA...NORTHERLY FLOW AND LESS INSTABILITIES SHOULD LEAD TO A MOSTLY QUITE DAY SUNDAY. IF THIS DISTURBANCE TRACKS FARTHER NORTH SATURDAY...AREAS NOT SEEING CONVECTION SATURDAY WILL LIKELY HAVE PULSE CONVECTION SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. CONVECTION POSSIBILITIES SUNDAY AFTERNOON MAY BE FROM A LINE FROM BLUEFIELD WV TO WEST JEFFERSON NC SOUTHWEST. THIS LINE MAY BE EXTENDED TO DANVILLE VA DEPENDING ON THE OUTCOME SATURDAY. SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW OVERNIGHT SUNDAY MAY KEEP A FEW SHOWERS ONGOING INTO EARLY MONDAY MORNING. MONDAY WILL BE ANOTHER DAY FOR PULSE STORM WITH THE PRIMARY FOCUS ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS. TUESDAY COULD BE A MIX OF CONVECTION FROM PULSE STORMS IN THE EARLY AFTERNOON TRANSITIONING TO PREFRONTAL CONVECTION IN THE EARLY EVENING THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING HOURS. ON WEDNESDAY...A COLD FRONT WILL SLIDE ACROSS THE REGION WITH THE BEST AREAL COVERAGE OF THE STRONGER STORMS BEING ACROSS THE PIEDMONT. THE COLD FRONT MAY WASHOUT OR STALL WITH THE DEW POINT FRONT HANGING BACK ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY. UNDER HEATING...SCATTERED CONVECTION MAY FIRE AGAIN ACROSS THE AREA THURSDAY ESPECIALLY ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE VA/NC BORDER. && .AVIATION /19Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... AS OF 115 PM EDT THURSDAY... CLUSTERS OF DEEP CONVECTION CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AND SPILL EAST ALONG THE KLWB-KLYH CORRIDOR EARLY THIS AFTERNOON WITH ADDED DEVELOPMENT ONGOING DOWN THE WESTERN SLOPES TO THE WEST OF KMKJ. EXPECT THIS TO KEEP PERIODS OF MVFR AT KLWB OVER THE NEXT HOUR OR TWO WITH PERHAPS BRIEF IFR IF A HEAVIER TSRA CROSSES DIRECTLY OVER THE AIRPORT. SHOULD SEE MOST OF THIS COVERAGE SHIFT SE OF KLWB BY 20Z/4PM. THEN EXPECT STORMS TO FILL IN OUT EAST WITH ONLY WIDELY SCATTERED CONVECTION LIKELY AROUND KBLF WITH SOME OF THIS SPREADING EAST TO NEAR KBCB/KROA BEFORE WEAKENING GIVEN THE STRONG WEST WINDS ATTM. TSRA MAY TEND TO JUMP THE BLUE RIDGE LATER THIS AFTERNOON WITH INCREASING CHANCES OVER THE PIEDMONT ESPCLY AROUND KDAN ONCE THE DOWNSLOPE WEAKENS A BIT LATER ON. THUS HAVE CONTINUED THE TREND OF INCLUDING A PREVAILING PERIOD OF MVFR IN SHRA/TSRA WHERE ALREADY ONGOING OR APPROACHING AND VCTS ELSW UNTIL LATE IN THE DAY. A BACKDOOR FRONT DIPS SOUTH TOWARD THE AREA FROM THE MASON-DIXON LINE TONIGHT WHICH WILL INCREASE THE RANGE OF STORMS INTO MORE SCATTERED AND MULTICELLULAR THIS EVENING ESPCLY SOUTHERN AND WESTERN SECTIONS. MODELS ARE BRINGING MVFR TO IFR CLOUDS AND FOG INTO THE FORECAST AREA NORTH OF THE FRONT LATE TONIGHT. BUFKIT SOUNDINGS SHOWED DRIER AIR COMING IN AT MID AND HIGH LEVELS WHILE THE NAM LOWERS MOST CIGS TO IFR/MVFR IN LOW LEVEL NE FLOW BY MORNING. THINK THIS MAY BE OVERDONE GIVEN SLOWNESS OF THE BOUNDARY BUT A PERIOD OF LOW CIGS POSSIBLE KLWB EAST TO ALONG THE BLUE RIDGE BY DAYBREAK ON FRIDAY. BEST LIFT AND MOISTURE LOOKS TO GET PUSHED INTO THE FAR SW SECTIONS FRIDAY MORNING BEFORE ANOTHER WAVE STARTS TO SHIFT THE DEEPER MOISTURE EAST DURING THE AFTERNOON. LATEST GUIDANCE INDICATES THAT INSTABILITY MAY BE MUCH LESS INTO FRIDAY AFTERNOON WITH ADDED CONVECTION LIKELY FAR WEST AND NOT INCREASING UNTIL THE EAST. OTRW THE MAIN CONCERN FRIDAY WILL BE WITH HOW FAST CONDITIONS TURN VFR AS IF MORE FOG/STRATUS DEVELOPS OVERNIGHT THEN COULD BE LOCKED INTO AT LEAST MVFR OVER THE EAST UNTIL MIDDAY OR SO. EXTENDED AVIATION DISCUSSION... THE FRONT AND DISTURBANCE ALOFT SHOULD PRODUCE BETTER COVERAGE FRIDAY NIGHT. A WEAK FLOW PATTERN HOLDING OVER THE WEEKEND WILL KEEP THE STORM CHANCES EACH AFTERNOON THROUGH EARLY EVENING SAT/SUN BUT COVERAGE FOR NOW LOOKS A BIT LESS EACH DAY BEHIND THE PASSING IMPULSE FROM FRIDAY NIGHT. DEEPER MOISTURE LOOKS TO RETURN NORTH BY EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH BETTER COVERAGE OF AFTERNOON/EVENING STORMS ON MONDAY. AREAS OF IFR FOG REMAIN POSSIBLE EACH LATE NIGHT/EARLY MORNING... PARTICULARLY IN AREAS THAT SEE RAIN THE PREVIOUS AFTERNOON. THE MOST OPTIMAL FLIGHT CONDITIONS EACH DAY SHOULD BE IN THE MID TO LATE MORNING AFTER FOG/LOW CLOUDS LIFT AND BURN OFF...AND BEFORE AFTERNOON CONVECTION REDEVELOPS. && .RNK WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
