AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
1134 PM EST SAT JAN 25 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A DEEP AND EXPANSIVE AREA OF LOW PRESSURE...ANCHORED ACROSS HUDSON
BAY...WILL REMAIN IN PLACE ACROSS THE EASTERN TWO-THIRDS OF THE
U.S. INTO THE LATER HALF OF THE WEEK BEFORE FINALLY BEGINNING
RETREAT SOMEWHAT TO THE NORTH. A SERIES OF ALBERTA CLIPPERS WILL
CONTINUE TO SEND SURGES OF ARCTIC AIR INTO THE REGION...ALSO
PROVIDING FOR MINOR TO MODERATE ACCUMULATIONS OF UPSLOPE SNOW IN
THE ALLEGHANYS.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 1046 PM EST SATURDAY...

QUICK UPGRADE TO HIGH WIND WARNING FOR NW NC AND GRAYSON COUNTY
VA. STRONGEST GUSTS WILL BE ABOVE 3500 FEET. WITH INVERSION
LOWERING OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS WINDS MAY STRENGTHEN SOMEWHAT.

AS OF 1000 PM EST SATURDAY...

MESOSCALE SNOW BANDS HAVE DROPPED A QUICK 1 TO 3 INCHES ACROSS
PARTS OF THE NEW RIVER VALLEY THIS EVENING AND THESE BANDS
CONTINUE TO SLIDE EAST AND SOUTH. CLEARLY UNDERESTIMATED THE
STRENGTH AND INTENSITY OF THESE BANDS BUT THEY DO SEEM TO BE
WEAKENING AT LAST. BUMPED POPS/QPF/SNOW UP OUT INTO THE PIEDMONT
TO TRY AND ANTICIPATE ANY FURTHER EVOLUTION.

REST OF FORECAST APPEARS TO BE ON TRACK WITH COLD AND WIND
ADVISORIES AND WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FURTHER WEST.

REFER TO LATEST PNS FOR SNOW REPORTS.

&&

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

500MB PATTERN HAS BROAD WEST TO SOUTHWEST WINDS THROUGH THE PERIOD.
AT THE SURFACE A COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA ON
MONDAY. MORE ARCTIC AIR IS BEHIND THIS FRONT. MODELS LOWER 850MB
TEMPERATURES DOWN TO THE -14 TO -26 RANGE BY TUESDAY MORNING. NOT A
LOT OF UPPER SUPPORT WITH THIS FRONT TO HELP WITH THE CHANCE OF
SNOW. BUT UPSLOPE WINDS WILL BE STRONG AS WILL COLD AIR
ADVECTION...SO WITH ANY DECENT LOW LEVEL MOISTURE ON THE WESTERN
SLOPES OF THE APPALACHIANS...TYPICALLY FAVORED AREAS WILL HAVE SNOW
SHOWERS MONDAY.

PRESSURE RISES OF +4 TO +8 MB/6HR MONDAY AFTER PLUS THE AMOUNT OF
COLD AIR ADVECTION WILL PRODUCE GUSTY WINDS AND VERY COLD WIND CHILL
VALUES THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT. WILL CONTINUE TO EMPHASIZE THIS
POTENTIAL THREAT IN THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK. MODELS ARE
SUGGESTING THAT THIS BURST OF EXTREMELY COLD AIR WILL BE SIMILAR TO
THE BEGINNING OF JANUARY. HIGHER ELEVATIONS MAY HAVE TEMPERATURE
READINGS BY TUESDAY MORNING LOWER THAN -10.

&&

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

THIS PORTION OF THE FORECAST WILL OFFER A PERIOD OF TRANSITION TO A
MILDER WEATHER PATTERN ACROSS OUR REGION.

TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY...THE REGION WILL STILL BE IN THE MIDST
OF VERY COLD ARCTIC AIR. WHILE THE MOST RECENT OF SHORTWAVE TROUGHS
WILL BE HEADING EAST OF THE REGION TUESDAY NIGHT...THE CENTER OF
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL SKIRT THE NORTHERN PARTS OF THE REGION.
THIS WILL RESULT IN WINDS BECOMING LIGHT...LIMITED CLOUD COVER...AND
SOME VERY LOW TEMPERATURES...ESPECIALLY IN THE MOUNTAINS WHERE SNOW
COVER WILL BE IN PLACE. TUESDAY NIGHT WE EXPECT MOST AREAS ACROSS
THE MOUNTAINS TO HAVE LOWS BELOW ZERO...WITH SINGLE DIGIT ABOVE ZERO
LOWS ACROSS THE PIEDMONT. ON WEDNESDAY...HIGHS WILL RANGE FROM
ROUGHLY 15 TO 20 ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS WITH MID TO UPPER 20S OVER THE
PIEDMONT. BY THE AFTERNOON...THE CENTER OF THE SURFACE HIGH WILL BE
EAST OF THE AREA...AND LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL TAKE ON MORE OF A
SOUTHWEST...WARM AIR ADVECTION PATTERN.

THIS SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL CONTINUE THROUGH AT LEAST FRIDAY IN ADVANCE
OF THE NEXT GREAT LAKES SHORTWAVE TROUGH. HOWEVER...THIS NEXT ONE
WILL HAVE THE FOCUS FOR MUCH OF ITS ENERGY AND COLDER WEATHER NORTH
OF THE REGION. 850 MB TEMPERATURES ARE ONLY EXPECTED TO REACH AROUND
-8C ACROSS OUR NORTH...AS COMPARED TO THE -23C THAT IS EXPECTED
THURSDAY NIGHT. OUR FORECAST WILL REFLECT A SMALL CHANCE OF SNOW
ACROSS SOUTHEAST WEST VIRGINIA SOUTH INTO THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS OF
NORTH CAROLINA. HIGH TEMPERATURES BY FRIDAY WILL RANGE FROM THE LOW
TO MID 30S ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS...AND AROUND 40 TO THE LOWER 40S
ACROSS THE PIEDMONT.

BY SATURDAY...THE FRIDAY SHORTWAVE IS HISTORY...AND THE TREND TOWARD
MILDER SOUTHWEST FLOW CONTINUES. A WEATHER SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO
MOVE INTO THE OHIO VALLEY ON SATURDAY...BUT UNLIKE RECENT
ONES...IT WILL HAVE ITS ORIGINS FROM THE MILDER PACIFIC NORTHWEST OF
THE U.S. RATHER THAN FROM ALONG THE FRINGES OF THE POLAR VORTEX.
SATURDAY MAY BECOME A CHALLENGING WEATHER FORECASTING DAY. MODEL
GUIDANCE AT THIS POINT IS SUGGESTING BELOW FREEZING SURFACE
CONDITIONS FRIDAY NIGHT AND EARLY SATURDAY ACROSS THE WESTERN AND
NORTHERN PARTS OF THE AREA WHEN PRECIPITATION ARRIVES. HOWEVER...IT
ALSO HAS THE AREA/S FIRST WARM NOSE OF GREATER THAN 0C IN THE LOW
LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE. WE MIGHT BE LOOKING AT OUR FIRST WINTERY
MIX SCENARIO IN QUITE A WHILE. FOR SIMPLICITY...OUR FORECAST AT THIS
POINT WILL REFLECT A RAIN VERSUS FREEZING RAIN FORECAST BASED SOLELY
ON FORECAST SURFACE TEMPERATURES. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE
APPROACHING SEASONABLE READINGS WITH MID 30S TO AROUND 40 ACROSS
THE MOUNTAINS AND LOW TO MID 40S ACROSS THE PIEDMONT.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 1130 PM EST SATURDAY...

BANDS OF SNOW SHOWERS THAT REDUCED VSBY TO IFR AT TIMES THIS
EVENING AT MOUNTAIN SITES HAVE RAPIDLY WEAKENED LATE THIS EVENING
WITH IMPROVING CONDITIONS NOTED AT ALL TAF SITES. PRIMARY AVIATION
CONCERN EARLY SUNDAY WIL BE STRONG WINDS ESPECIALLY IN THE
MOUNTAINS AS MODEL CROSS SECTIONS SHOW CORE OF 50KT+ WIND ALOFT
AT TIMES EARLY THIS MORNING AND WILL APPROACHING 40 TO 45 KTS AT
THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS. EAST OF THE BLUE
RIDGE...SURFACE GUSTS AROUND 30KTS WILL BE MORE COMMON INTO
TOMORROW MORNING EXCEPT FOR PIEDMONT TERMINALS AND KLWB WHICH\
TENDS TO BE MORE SHELTERED. WINDS SHIFT INTO THE SOUTHWEST AND
WEAKEN BY EARLY TO MIDDAY AS NEXT UPSTREAM SHORT WAVE BEGINS TO
APPROACH THE REGION.

MEDIUM CONFIDENCE ON CIGS...VISIBILITY AND WIND DURING THE PERIOD.

EXTENDED AVIATION DISCUSSION...

THE WEATHER PATTERN FOR NEXT WEEK REMAINS UNCHANGED. FLOW ALOFT
WILL REMAIN PROGRESSIVE...PRIMARILY FROM THE NORTHWEST WITH
PERIODIC SHORTWAVE TROUGHS RIDING ALONG THE FLOW AND MOVING ACROSS
OR NEAR OUR REGION. EACH OF THESE WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL OF
PRODUCING MVFR CIGS AND SNOW SHOWERS ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS...WITH
AN ASSOCIATED INCREASE IN NORTHWEST WINDS CONCURRENT AND IN THE
WAKE OF EACH SYSTEM.
