AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BALTIMORE MD/WASHINGTON DC
456 AM EDT MON JUL 13 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A STATIONARY BOUNDARY WILL REMAIN OVER THE REGION THROUGH TONIGHT.
THE BOUNDARY WILL MOVE NORTH AS A WARM FRONT TUESDAY MORNING AND A
COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH FROM THE WEST TUESDAY AFTERNOON. THE COLD
FRONT WILL PASS THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL BUILD TOWARD THE REGION FROM THE NORTH THURSDAY AND
FRIDAY BEFORE MOVING OFF THE COAST DURING THE WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
...UPDATE TO CANCEL COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY. PREVIOUS DISCUSSION
FOLLOWS...

AN UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH IS BUILDING OVERHEAD EARLY THIS MORNING
WHILE HIGH PRESSURE MOVES OFF TO OUR EAST. WEAK DISTURBANCES
WITHIN THE TROUGH ARE TRIGGERING A FEW SHOWERS...BUT THE HEAVIEST
SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY SHOULD REMAIN TO OUR SOUTH AND
WEST WHERE INSTABILITY IS HIGHER.

THE UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH WILL REMAIN OVERHEAD TODAY WHILE UPPER-
LEVEL DISTURBANCES SWING THROUGH THE AREA IN THE WESTERLY FLOW
ALOFT. A WEAK STATIONARY BOUNDARY ALSO REMAINS OVER THE REGION AND
THIS BOUNDARY WILL REMAIN NEARLY STATIONARY...EXTENDING FROM
WESTERN MARYLAND SOUTH AND EAST TOWARD THE VIRGINIA PIEDMONT. THERE
WILL BE A WEAK DEWPOINT GRADIENT ALONG THE BOUNDARY WITH UPPER 60S
AND LOWER 70S SOUTH AND WEST OF THE BOUNDARY AND LOWER TO MIDDLE
60S DEWPOINTS NORTH AND EAST OF THE BOUNDARY. ONE OF THOSE
DISTURBANCES WILL PASS THROUGH THIS MORNING...TRIGGERING SOME
SHOWERS. THE BEST CHANCE FOR SHOWERS WILL BE ACROSS THE WESTERN
AND CENTRAL PORTIONS OF THE CWA...CLOSER TO THE STATIONARY
BOUNDARY.

ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING ACROSS THE POTOMAC HIGHLANDS INTO CENTRAL
VIRGINIA...SOUTH AND WEST OF THE STATIONARY BOUNDARY WHERE THERE
WILL BE MORE INSTABILITY. LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL AND GUSTY WINDS
ARE POSSIBLE IN SOME OF THE STRONGER THUNDERSTORMS DURING THIS
TIME. A FEW SHOWERS AND PERHAPS AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM ARE
EXPECTED NORTH AND EAST OF THE BOUNDARY WHERE MORE UPPER-LEVEL
DISTURBANCES WILL BE PASSING THROUGH...BUT WITH LIMITED
INSTABILITY AND A LACK OF STRONG FORCING MECHANISMS...MUCH OF THE
AFTERNOON MAY TURN OUT DRY AND AVERAGE RAINFALL AMOUNTS WILL BE
LIGHT.

MORE SHORTWAVE ENERGY WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION
TONIGHT...BRINGING THE CHANCE FOR A FEW SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
AGAIN...THE BEST CHANCE FOR HEAVIER SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
DURING THE EVENING HOURS ACROSS THE POTOMAC HIGHLANDS INTO CENTRAL
VIRGINIA WHERE INSTABILITY WILL BE HIGHEST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
THE STATIONARY BOUNDARY WILL LIFT NORTH AS A WARM FRONT TUESDAY
MORNING. A COLD FRONT ALONG WITH A SURFACE LOW PRESSURE AND A
STRONGER UPPER-LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL APPROACH THE AREA FROM THE
GREAT LAKES TUESDAY AFTERNOON. A SOUTHWEST FLOW AHEAD OF THIS
SYSTEM WILL USHER IN WARM AND HUMID CONDITIONS...CAUSING MODERATE
AMOUNTS OF INSTABILITY TO DEVELOP...ESPECIALLY ACROSS CENTRAL AND
SOUTHERN AREAS WHERE TEMPS MAY BE A BIT WARMER. SHEAR PROFILES
WILL REMAIN RELATIVELY WEAK ACROSS THE NORTHERN PORTION OF THE
CWA...BUT MARGINAL SHEAR PROFILES ARE EXPECTED ACROSS CENTRAL AND
SOUTHERN AREAS. THE COMBINATION OF MODERATE INSTABILITY AND
MARGINAL SHEAR PROFILES MAY CAUSE A FEW THUNDERSTORMS TO HAVE
GUSTY WINDS. WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION AN ISOLATED THREAT FOR
SEVERE WEATHER ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN AREAS IN THE HWO...BUT
THE BEST CHANCE FOR MORE WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER APPEARS THAT IT
WILL BE TO OUR SOUTH WHERE SHEAR AND INSTABILITY WILL BE STRONGER.

DEEP MOISTURE WILL BE IN PLACE WITH PWATS APPROACHING TWO INCHES
EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE MOUNTAINS TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
THEREFORE...ANY THUNDERSTORMS THAT DO DEVELOP WILL CONTAIN
LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL ACROSS THE AREA TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. THERE SHOULD BE ENOUGH FLOW FOR STORMS TO BE MOVING...BUT
FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE REMAINS RELATIVELY LOW DUE TO RECENT
RAINFALL. THEREFORE...LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING CANNOT BE RULED
OUT. WILL MENTION IN THE HWO FOR NOW...BUT CONFIDENCE IS TOO LOW
FOR A WATCH AT THIS TIME.

THE COLD FRONT WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION TUESDAY NIGHT ALONG WITH
THE UPPER-LEVEL DISTURBANCE. SURFACE LOW PRESSURE WILL DEVELOP
ALONG THE FRONT...BUT THAT IS MOST LIKELY TO REMAIN JUST TO OUR
EAST. COVERAGE OF CONVECTION SHOULD DECREASE OVERNIGHT DUE TO THE
LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING...BUT SHOULD THE LOW DEVELOP FARTHER WEST
THAN EXPECTED...A HEAVY RAIN THREAT COULD CONTINUE OVERNIGHT
TUESDAY AS WELL.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
H5 TROF AXIS WL PIVOT ACRS THE CWFA WED. DUE TO S/WV ENERGY W/IN
TROF...DIURNAL CNVCTN SHUD BE ABLE TO RDVLP. THINK THERE WL BE ENUF
INSTBY FOR TSRA...BUT INGREDIENTS DO NOT LOOK ORGANIZED ENUF FOR
MORE THAN THAT. SINCE THERE SHUD BE A DIURNAL COMPONENT...NOT TO
MENTION DEPARTING PVA...XPCT STORMS TO DIMINISH BY/SOON AFTER
SUNSET.

THERE IS A BIT MORE UNCERTAINTY WRT THU. GFS PAINTING A DRY
PICTURE...W/ A PROMINENT RDG  BLDG SFC-H8 AND EXTENDING IN A WEAKER
FASHION THROUGH H5. ECMWF SOLN SLOWER...ALTHO LTST /00Z/ RUN A BIT
FASTER THAN THE 12Z WAS. IF IT WERE TO PAN OUT...CUD SEE SHRA/TSRA
DVLP AND THU. PRVS FCST HAD 20-30 POPS TO ACCT FOR THAT. HV BACKED
OFF A PINCH...SPCLY FOR THE MTNS. EITHER WAY...THU NGT WL BE DRY.

FRI WL START DRY DUE TO AFOREMENTIONED RDG...BUT RETURN FLOW WL BE
FAST ON ITS HEELS. AM STILL GOING W/ THE SLOWER SOLN...WHICH WL KEEP
THE I-95 CRRDR DRY BY ENTERTAIN CHC POPS IN THE MTNS. A GREATER CHC
AT PCPN COMES SAT AS WMFNT CROSSES AREA. DONT HV THE HIGHEST
CONFIDENCE IN THIS OUTCOME. ONCE FNT DOES PASS BY...CWFA WL BE
WITHIN THE WARMER/MORE UNSTABLE SECTOR...WHICH MEANS MORE INSTBLTY
AND ADDTL DIURNAL CNVCTN.

SPEAKING OF TEMPS...ONCE THING THATS NOTABLE IS THAT ALL MAXT THRU
THE WEEK AOB CLIMO. HV TEMPS RISING TO ARND 90F FOR THE WKND. THIS
IS THE WARMEST PART OF THE YEAR WRT CLIMO...SO EVEN THE WARM PART OF
THE FCST ISNT ALL THAT HOT.

&&

.AVIATION /09Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
A FEW SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE TERMINALS THIS
MORNING...ESPECIALLY KMRB. PATCHY FOG AND LOW CLOUDS ARE EXPECTED
AS WELL. THE BEST CHANCE FOR LOW CLOUDS WILL BE ACROSS KCHO WHERE
MVFR/IFR CIGS ARE EXPECTED THIS MORNING. REDUCED VSBYS TO MVFR
LEVELS ARE POSSIBLE IN ANY SHOWERS THAT DEVELOP AS WELL.

VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED FOR MOST OF THE TERMINALS THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING...BUT THERE WILL BE A FEW SHOWERS AND
PERHAPS EVEN A THUNDERSTORM. THE BEST CHANCE FOR HEAVIER SHOWERS
AND A THUNDERSTORM WILL BE ACROSS KCHO.

PATCHY FOG AND LOW CLOUDS ARE LIKELY LATE TONIGHT INTO TUESDAY
MORNING. A FEW SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE AS WELL. THERE IS A BETTER
CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. SOME WILL
CONTAIN LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL THAT CAN CAUSE BRIEF PERIODS OF
IFR/SUBIFR CIGS/VSBYS. COVERAGE OF CONVECTION SHOULD DECREASE
OVERNIGHT TUESDAY.

OUTLOOK...

HV DAILY TSRA CHCS...ALTHO CONFIDENCE IN ANY ONE OF THEM NOT ALL
THAT HIGH. WED LKLY WL HV A BETTER OPPORTUNITY THAN THU-FRI...BUT
CVRG SCTD.

&&

.MARINE...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE OFF TO THE EAST TODAY WHILE A STATIONARY
BOUNDARY REMAINS TO OUR WEST. A SOUTHEAST FLOW WILL DEVELOP BETWEEN
THESE SYSTEMS. THE GRADIENT WILL INCREASE A BIT LATE THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. SOUTHEAST WINDS MAY APPROACH SCA CRITERIA
FOR THE MIDDLE PORTION OF THE BAY AND LOWER TIDAL POTOMAC
RIVER...BUT CONFIDENCE IS TOO LOW FOR AN SCA GIVEN THE RELATIVELY
COOLER WATERS.

A WARM FRONT WILL PASS THROUGH THE WATERS TUESDAY MORNING AND A
SOUTHERLY FLOW BEHIND THE WARM FRONT IS EXPECTED TUESDAY
AFTERNOON. THE GRADIENT SHOULD BE WEAK ENOUGH TO KEEP WIND SPEEDS
BELOW SCA CRITERIA. HOWEVER...THUNDERSTORMS ARE LIKELY TUESDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING...AND SOME MAY CONTAIN GUSTY WINDS.

COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL DECREASE OVERNIGHT
TUESDAY...BUT A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY MAY BE NEEDED FOR PORTIONS OF
THE WATERS AS A COLD FRONT BEGINS TO PASS THROUGH.

SCA NOT ANTICIPATED WED-FRI ATTM...AS FNT WL BE WAVERING ACRS MARINE
AREA. N/NWLY FLOW 10-15 KT WED WL BECOME LGT ELY THU AND SELY FRI.
ALT SCENARIO...IF FROPA ELY WED MAKES IT FAR ENUF S...THEN SCA
WUD BE PSBL.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
TIDAL ANOMALIES REMAIN AROUND ONE-HALF FOOT ABOVE NORMAL. WATER
LEVELS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW MINOR FLOODING THRESHOLDS WITH
THE HIGH TIDE CYCLE THIS MORNING.

SOUTHERLY/SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW INCREASES TO 10 TO 15 KT THIS
AFTERNOON WHICH WILL INCREASE THE TIDAL ANOMALY FURTHER. LEADING
TO POTENTIAL FOR MINOR FLOODING ALONG THE ENTIRE WESTERN SHORE OF
THE MARYLAND BAY AND ALSO THE SW WATERFRONT IN DC AND AT OLD TOWN
ALEXANDRIA DURING THE HIGH TIDE CYCLE TONIGHT INTO TUESDAY
MORNING. CONFIDENCE IN MINOR TIDAL FLOODING IS LOW AT THIS TIME
SINCE OBSERVATIONS ARE RUNNING BELOW CBOFS GUIDANCE...WHICH HAS
WATER LEVELS RIGHT NEAR THE MINOR FLOODING THRESHOLDS WITH THE
HIGH TIDE CYCLE TONIGHT INTO TUESDAY MORNING.
