AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
253 PM EDT THU APR 9 2015
.SYNOPSIS...
ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH FRIDAY. COLD FRONT
CROSSES FRIDAY. HIGH PRESSURE FOR THE WEEKEND. COLD FRONT APPROACHES
AND THEN STALLS FOR UNSETTLED WEATHER NEXT WEEK.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
YET ANOTHER CONVECTIVE COMPLEX DEVELOPING TO OUR WEST...HOWEVER
THE MEAN FLOW TODAY LOOKS TO KEEP THE STRONGEST STORMS TO OUR
WEST...OR JUST CLIPPING THE WESTERN CWA. THE HIGHEST ML CAPE
REMAINS WEST OF CWA...AND WOULD EXPECT STRONGEST STORMS TO STICK
CLOSER TO THIS. WE ARE STILL FIRMLY WITHIN THE WARM SECTOR
HOWEVER WITH CONVECTION POPPING UP ACROSS WV SOUTHWEST INTO
SOUTHERN KENTUCKY...SO WILL STILL HAVE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
DRIFTING NE ACROSS FORECAST AREA THIS AFTERNOON...INTO THIS
EVENING ACROSS THE NORTH. THINK THE BEST CHANCE OF WIDESPREAD
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL REMAIN MOSTLY WEST OF FORECAST AREA. IN
CWA BEST CHANCE LOOKS TO BE IN THE WESTERN THIRD OF CWA...ALONG
THE OHIO RIVER AND WEST THIS AFTERNOON INTO EVENING. USED THE HRRR TO
TIME THE BEST POPS...ALTHOUGH ISOLATED TO SCATTERED CONVECTION IS
TOUGH TO GET EXACT. LOW TO MID LEVEL FLOW IS GENERALLY OUT OF THE
SOUTHWEST...20-30KTS AROUND 925 MB...UP TO 50-60KTS AT 500MB. THIS
WILL KEEP THINGS MOVING WHICH SHOULD HELP WITH WATER CONCERNS.
MAIN CONCERN WATER-WISE WILL BE TRAINING CELLS...ESPECIALLY ALONG
ANY OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES THAT LINGER PARALLEL TO THE FLOW. NO REASON
TO MAKE ANY CHANGES TO THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH. IN THE WETTER
AREAS...THAT WERE HIT LAST NIGHT BY HEAVY RAIN...IT WOULD LIKELY
ONLY TAKE 1-1.5 INCHES IN 3 HOURS OR LESS TO START CAUSING
PROBLEMS AGAIN...WHILE AREAS THAT HAVE NOT RECEIVED AS MUCH RAIN
OVER THE LAST DAY OR TWO IT WOULD TAKE 1.5-2 IN 3 HOURS.
TRIED TO SHOW A BREAK LATE THIS EVENING INTO TONIGHT...AS
CONVECTION FROM THIS AFTERNOON EXITS TO THE NE...AND A COLD FRONT
FINALLY APPROACHES FROM THE WNW. STILL HAVE ISOLATED
SHOWERS/STORMS MENTIONED THROUGH THE NIGHT...AS WE REMAIN IN THE
WARM SECTOR.
COLD FRONT ARRIVES TO WESTERN ZONES FRIDAY MORNING. GFS/ECMWF ARE
FAIRLY SIMILAR IN TIMING WITH THE FRONT...WHILE NAM LAGS BEHIND A
BIT. DID NOT CHANGE PREVIOUS FORECAST TIMING A WHOLE LOT...BUT DID
INCREASE POPS.
&&
.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
CURRENT FORECAST OF A DRY AND MILD WEEKEND CONTINUES ONT RACK...AS
MODELS VERY CONSISTENT WITH HIGH PRESSURE DOMINATING THE OHIO
VALLEY. LOOK FOR NEAR SEASONAL DAYTIME TEMPERATURES BUT CHILLY
NIGHTS WITH A LARGE DIURNAL RANGE IN TEMPERATURES.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
MODELS DEPICT ANOTHER FRONTAL SYSTEM MEANDERING BACK AND FORTH ACROSS
OUR REGION FOR MUCH OF NEXT WEEK. WHILE SPECIFIC DETAILS MAY BE
DIFFERENT FOR EACH SYSTEM THAT RUNS ALONG THIS FRONT...THE GENERAL
SCENARIO IS FOR WARM...MOIST AND RELATIVELY UNSTABLE AIR IN PLACE
TO PRESENT A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ANYTIME FOR MUCH OF
THE WEEK.
&&
.AVIATION /19Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS EXPECTED TODAY INTO
TONIGHT. HARD TO TIME THESE INDIVIDUAL CELLS WITH NO REAL SURFACE
FEATURE TO FOCUS ON...SO WENT WITH VCTS AND ANTICIPATE AMENDMENTS
WILL BE NEEDED IF CELLS APPROACH INDIVIDUAL TAF SITES. MVFR TO IFR
WOULD BE POSSIBLE. BETTER CONFIDENCE ON TIMING OF SHOWERS AND
STORMS FRIDAY MORNING AS A COLD FRONT PASSES THROUGH. WINDS WILL
GENERALLY BE OUT OF THE S/SW THROUGH TONIGHT...ALTHOUGH VARIABLE
AND GUSTY IN AND AROUND CONVECTION. WINDS WILL BECOME WESTERLY
BEHIND THE FRONT.
FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 18Z FRIDAY...
FORECAST CONFIDENCE: LOW.
ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: TIMING AND RESTRICTIONS IN SHOWERS/STORMS COULD
VARY.
