Special Weather Statement, NWS Blacksburg, VA

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
652 PM EST SAT JAN 11 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL PROGRESS ACROSS THE AREA THIS EVENING AND BE
WELL OFF THE ATLANTIC COAST BY SUNDAY MORNING. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
BUILD INTO THE REGION FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEKEND. A WARM
FRONT WILL LIFT ACROSS THE AREA ON MONDAY...FOLLOWED BY A COLD
FRONT ON TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 650 PM EST SATURDAY...

SHOWERS ALONG THE COLD FRONT ARE CONTINUING TO PROGRESS EASTWARD
THROUGH THE AREA. A LOOK AT THE LOCAL WRF AND HRRR MODELS ARE
CAPTURING THIS ACTIVITY...AND OFFER A SOLUTION THAT BRINGS AT
LEAST ISOLATED COVERAGE ACROSS THE ENTIRE REGION COINCIDENT TO THE
FRONT. HAVE UPDATED THE FORECAST TO REFLECT THIS. NO OTHER
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES HAVE BEEN MADE.

AS OF 525 PM EST SATURDAY...

INSTABILITY HAS DEVELOPED IN THE DRY SLOT IMMEDIATELY COINCIDENT
TO THE COLD FRONT. ENOUGH HEATING HAS ALLOWED FOR SOME SCATTERED
SHOWERS TO DEVELOP OVER WEST VIRGINIA THAT ARE PROGRESSING INTO
THE WESTERN PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA. AM NOT ANTICIPATING THE
SHOWERS TO MAKE A LOT OF PROGRESS AND DISSIPATE AROUND SUNSET.

AS OF 315 PM EST SATURDAY...

A COLD FRONT WAS ABOUT TO ENTER THE WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST
AREA. PRECIPITATION HEAD OF IT WAS BECOMING CONFINED TO PRIMARILY
THE EASTERN HALF OF THE REGION AND PROGRESSING EASTWARD VERY
QUICKLY. ANTICIPATE THAT THE BACK EDGE OF THE PRECIPITATION WILL
EXIT THE EASTERN PART OF THE FORECAST AREA BY 800 PM EST. BEHIND THE
COLD FRONT...WINDS WILL SHIFT NORTHWEST AND BECOME GUSTY THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS. 850 MB WINDS ARE
PROGGED TO PEAK BETWEEN 45 AND 50 KTS WITH AN ORIENTATION THAT GIVES
GOOD CROSS-BARRIER FLOW. WE ARE EXPECTED WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA
GUSTS ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS OF NORTH
CAROLINA...NORTH INTO GRAYSON COUNTY VIRGINIA. THE PRESSURE GRADIENT
AND SUBSEQUENT 850 WINDS ARE PROGGED TO DECREASE QUICKLY DURING THE
FORENOON SUNDAY...THUS THE 900 PM END TIME FOR THE ADVISORY. THESE
SAME NORTHWEST WINDS WILL BE WEAKER ACROSS THE PIEDMONT...AND HELP
TO ERODE THE CLOUD COVER THANKS TO THE GENERATED SUBSIDENCE.

THE NORTHWEST FLOW AND LINGERING LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL HELP TO
GENERATE SOME UPSLOPE PRECIPITATION ACROSS SOUTHEAST WEST VIRGINIA
SOUTH INTO THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS OF NORTH CAROLINA. WHILE WE WILL
MENTION SOME SNOW SHOWERS WHERE TEMPERATURES FALL LOW
ENOUGH...CONFIDENCE IN SNOW OCCURRING IS NOT VERY HIGH. PLENTY OF
DRY AIR WILL WORK INTO THE AREA BETWEEN ROUGHLY THE -6 C TO -25 C
RANGE...SO THERE LIKELY WILL NOT BE ANY ICE CRYSTALS FOR DENTRITIC
GROWTH. WILL MENTION THE POTENTIAL FOR DRIZZLE OR FREEZING DRIZZLE
GIVEN THE LOCAL TEMPERATURE. HOWEVER...HIGH LEVEL CLOUD COVER ABOVE
THIS DRY LAYER MAY HELP TO PROVIDE FOR SOME SEEDER FEEDER SNOW
PRODUCTION...BUT THE POTENTIAL FOR THAT IS ALSO ON THE LOW SIDE.
HAVE GONE FAIRLY CLOSE TO GUIDANCE ADJUSTED FOR LOCAL BIASES FOR THE
OVERNIGHT LOWS. THIS OFFERS LOWS OF THE LOW TO MID 30S OVER THE
MOUNTAINS WITH MID TO UPPER 30S ACROSS THE PIEDMONT.

ON SUNDAY...THE NORTHWEST WINDS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH ABOUT MIDDAY
BEFORE THEY WEAKEN AND BACK SOUTHWEST AS AN UPPER RIDGE STARTS TO
DEVELOP OVER THE REGION. WE EXPECT PLENTY OF DRY AIR TO CONTINUE
ADVECTING INTO THE AREA...AND THE TREND FOR ERODING CLOUD COVER WILL
TAKE PLACE ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS. HAVE FAVORED A BLEND OF THE MAV AND
MET MOS NUMBERS ADJUSTED FOR LOCAL BIASES FOR THE HIGH TEMPERATURES.
THIS WILL PLACE MID TO UPPER 40S ACROSS MOST OF THE MOUNTAIN
COUNTIES AND LOW TO MID 50S ACROSS THE PIEDMONT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 300 PM EST SATURDAY...

WILL START SUNDAY EVENING WITH A WEAK UPPER LEVEL RIDGE CROSSING THE
APPALACHIANS...WHILE HIGH PRESSURE IN THE LOW LEVELS MOVES OFFSHORE
FROM THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES. SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW AROUND THE
DEPARTING HIGH WILL DRAW WARM GULF AIR INTO OUR REGION...PUSHING
MONDAY AFTERNOON HIGHS INTO THE MID TO UPPER 50S FOR MOST
LOCATIONS... SEVERAL DEGREES ABOVE SEASONAL NORMALS.

THE UPPER RIDGE WILL BE MAKING A QUICK EXIT MONDAY AFTERNOON...IN
FAVOR OF AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED COOL FRONT APPROACHING
FROM THE UPPER MIDWEST. LATEST FORECAST MODELS INDICATE THE TROUGH
IS NOT AS SHARP OR NEGATIVELY TILTED AS INDICATED IN PREVIOUS MODEL
RUNS...AND AM NO LONGER CONTEMPLATING THE POSSIBILITY OF
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE SOUTHSIDE MONDAY NIGHT. PRECIPITATION IS A
GOOD BET HOWEVER...AND TEMPERATURES WILL BE WARM ENOUGH THROUGH THE
NIGHT TO SUPPORT RAIN.

THE COOL FRONT WILL PUSH THROUGH THE REGION EARLY TUESDAY MORNING...
BRINGING TUESDAY AFTERNOON HIGHS CLOSER TO SEASONAL NORMALS. WILL
SEE BRIEF PERIOD OF MAINLY DRY WEATHER TUESDAY AFTERNOON...BEFORE
OUR NEXT UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT ARRIVE TUESDAY
NIGHT. THIS TROUGH WILL BE COLDER THAN THE PREVIOUS SYSTEM
AND...WHILE THERE WILL NOT BE A GREAT DEAL OF MOISTURE FOR IT TO
WORK WITH...IS EXPECTED TO CAUSE RAIN SHOWERS TO CHANGE OVER TO SNOW
IN THE MOUNTAINS DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS OF WEDNESDAY. ANY
SNOW ACCUMULATIONS ARE EXPECTED TO BE LIGHT...AND CONFINED TO MAINLY
THE HIGHER RIDGES IN SOUTHEAST WEST VIRGINIA.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 300 PM EST SATURDAY...

POLAR VORTEX/EASTERN U.S. TROUGHING WILL PREVAIL DURING THE MEDIUM
RANGE. NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WILL DOMINATE THROUGH THE MUCH OF THE
PERIOD...AS THE MAIN TROUGH AXIS GRADUALLY PIVOTS NORTHEAST OF THE
REGION. A COUPLE OF ALBERTA CLIPPERS WILL ROTATE EASTWARD THROUGH
THE MEAN TROUGH WITH LIMITED MOISTURE. IN GENERAL...EXPECT
SEASONABLY COOL TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE PERIOD. UPSLOPE CLOUDS AND
COLDER TEMPERATURES ARE ON TAP FOR THE MOUNTAINS...WHILE SUNSHINE
WILL RESULT IN WARMER READINGS FOR THE EAST. KEPT THE HIGHEST POPS
ON WEDNESDAY IN THE NORTHWEST AS A WAVE TRAVEL ACROSS REGION. STILL
LOOK LIKE MOST OF THE MOISTURE WILL RIDE NORTHEAST OF OUR AREA. THE
FRONT PUSHES OFF TO THE EAST AND A DRY HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM
THE WEST BY THURSDAY. ANOTHER MOISTURE-STARVED SURFACE COLD FRONT
WITH ARRIVES AROUND FRIDAY...FOLLOWED BY HIGH PRESSURE ON SATURDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 635 PM EST SATURDAY...

A COLD FRONT IS CURRENTLY MOVING THROUGH THE REGION...VERY NEAR A
KBLF-KHSP LINE. SCATTERED SHOWERS HAVE DEVELOPED ALONG THE
FRONT...AND ARE PROGRESSING EASTWARD ACROSS THE AREA. ANTICIPATE
AT LEAST SOME ISOLATED COVERAGE TO ACCOMPANY THE FRONT THROUGH THE
FORECAST AREA...BUT THE GREATEST COVERAGE WILL CONTINUE EASTWARD
TO THE CREST OF THE BLUE RIDGE. SKY COVER OVERNIGHT WILL TREND TO
VFR EAST OF THE CREST OF THE RIDGE THANKS TO GOOD DOWNSLOPING.
ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS A MIX OF MVFR AND LOW AND VFR CLOUDS ARE
EXPECTED. SOME LIGHT SNOW OR DRIZZLE OR FREEZING DRIZZLE IS
POSSIBLE ACROSS SOUTHEAST WEST VIRGINIA SOUTH INTO THE NORTHERN
MOUNTAINS OF NORTH CAROLINA. ALL AREAS ARE EXPECTED TO BE VFR BY
LATE SUNDAY MORNING. GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS WILL PREVAIL ACROSS THE
MOUNTAINS OVERNIGHT WITH THE HIGHER PEAKS APPROACHING 40 TO 45
KTS. WINDS WILL DECREASE THROUGH THE DAY SUNDAY...AND LOW LEVEL
WINDS BACK AND AN UPPER RIDGE STARTS TO BUILD OVER THE AREA.

AS OF 110 PM EST SATURDAY...

THE NEXT LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM IS PROJECTED TO ARRIVE BY MONDAY
NIGHT INTO TUESDAY MORNING...WHICH WOULD BRING SOME MVFR
CONDITIONS AND RAIN SHOWERS IN THE PIEDMONT...WITH A FEW SNOW
SHOWERS POSSIBLE IN THE MOUNTAINS. THE LONG RANGE MODELS SHOW A
SMALL CLIPPER SYSTEM TRACKING OVER THE MID ATLANTIC BY TUESDAY
NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. SOME UNCERTAINTY STILL EXISTS WITH THIS
COMPACT FEATURE...BUT IT WILL BE WORTH WATCHING AS SOME
ACCUMULATING SNOW MAY OCCUR FOR BLF/LWB ON WEDNESDAY...AND EVEN
BCB/ROA MAY SEE A FEW SNOW SHOWERS. OTHERWISE...VFR CONDITIONS
SHOULD PREVAIL ACROSS THE PIEDMONT FOR MOST OF NEXT WEEK...WHILE
MVFR CONDITIONS MAY BE MORE LIKELY IN THE MOUNTAINS DURING
WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY.
