AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
256 PM EDT TUE SEP 29 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE OVER THE GULF OF MEXICO WILL TRACK NORTHEAST TODAY
AND TONIGHT WHILE A COLD FRONT CROSSES THE GREAT LAKES INTO THE
EASTERN UNITED STATES. THIS FRONT WILL CROSS THE AREA ON WEDNESDAY
THEN LOW PRESSURE WILL DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT OFF THE MID
ATLANTIC COAST AND TRACK NORTH THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY. THE
UNSEASONABLY WARM TEMPERATURES AND WET WEATHER WILL CONTINUE FOR
MUCH OF THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 930 AM EDT TUESDAY...
LATEST FORECAST UPDATE REFLECTS CONTINUED HEAVY RAIN FROM STOKES
COUNTY NORTH CAROLINA NORTHWARD THROUGH PATRICK COUNTY...ACROSS
FLOYD AND MONTGOMERY COUNTIES. HEAVIEST RAIN WILL OCCUR ALONG THE
BLUE RIDGE WHERE PATRICK COUNTY MEETS FLOYD COUNTY...AS WELL AS
THE FOOTHILLS OF THE BLUE RIDGE.

AS OF 930...ANOTHER BAND OF HEAVY RAIN...WITH 2 TO 3 INCH PER HOUR
RAINFALL RATES...IS MOVING NORTHWARD ACROSS PATRICK COUNTY. AN
ADDITIONAL TWO TO THREE INCHES IS LIKELY ALONG THE BLUE RIDGE IN
THIS AREA THROUGH NOON.

LATEST RAPID UPDATE FORECAST MODELS INDICATE THAT HEAVY RAIN WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AS A TROPICAL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
CARRIES ABNORMALLY MOIST AIR INTO THE AREA. WIDESPREAD RAINFALL
AMOUNTS OF 1 TO LOCALLY 2 INCHES WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE
MOUNTAINS THROUGH EARLY EVENING.

NUMEROUS ROADS HAVE BEEN REPORTED CLOSED ACROSS PORTIONS OF
MONTGOMERY...FLOYD AND PATRICK COUNTIES. RIVERS CONTINUE TO RISE
RAPIDLY DUE TO HEAVY RAINFALL...WITH MANY OF THE SMALLER CREEKS
AND STREAMS FROM STOKES COUNTY NC THROUGH MONTGOMERY COUNTY VA
SWELLING OUT OF THEIR BANKS. DO NOT DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE WHERE WATER
COVERS THE ROAD.

AS OF 445 AM EDT TUESDAY...

LOW PRESSURE OVER THE NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO WILL TRACK
NORTHEAST TODAY AND WILL MOVE ALONG THE APPALACHIANS THROUGH THE
FORECAST AREA BETWEEN 18Z/2PM THIS AFTERNOON AND 06Z/2AM TONIGHT.
THE 00Z GFS AND LATEST RAP GUIDANCE WERE SLIGHTLY FASTER WITH THE
TIMING OF THIS LOW THAN THE NAM. ALL MODEL SHOWED INCREASING EAST
TO SOUTHEAST WINDS AND UPSLOPE ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE LOW WHICH
WILL AIDE IN HIGHER RAINFALL AMOUNTS ON THE EAST SLOPES OF THE
BLUE RIDGE. THE BEST SYNOPTIC SCALE LIFT ALONG WITH THE BETTER JET
DYNAMICS REMAINED ALONG AND JUST WEST OF THE WESTERN EDGE OF THE
FORECAST AREA. A FLASH FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THE
EXPECTED RAINFALL AND THE IMPACTS FROM THIS RAIN FOR TODAY INTO
WEDNESDAY MORNING.

STARTING OUT VERY MILD WITH SURFACE DEW POINTS IN THE LOWER 60S TO
AROUND 70. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES ARE JUST ABOVE 200 PERCENT OF
NORMAL FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR AND WILL RANGE FROM 1.6 TO 2.2 TODAY

AND LOWS TONIGHT. CLOUDS AND PRECIPITATION WILL HOLD BACK RISE IN
TEMPERATURES TODAY AND MOIST AIR MASS WITH LIMIT DROP IN
TEMPERATURES OVERNIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 0315 AM EDT TUESDAY...

A COLD FRONT WILL SLOWLY MOVE ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA WEDNESDAY.
BEHIND THE FRONT...COOL AIR WILL ARRIVE IN NORTHERLY FLOW. DESPITE
THE PASSING OF THE FRONT...RAIN CHANCES WILL REMAIN IN THE FORECAST
AS A NORTHERN STREAM UPPER LEVEL TROUGH CONNECTS WITH A SOUTHERN
STREAM TROUGH. THIS UNITED TROUGH WILL REMAIN OVER THE OHIO-TENN
VALLEY THROUGH FRIDAY. MODELS ARE INDICATING THAT THIS TROUGH COULD
BECOME A CLOSED LOW ON THURSDAY. IF THIS CLOSED LOW DOES TAKE
SHAPE...THE CHANCE FOR RAIN WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE END OF THE
WORKWEEK. TO PUT A GOOD SPIN ON A DREARY FORECAST...THE BULK OF THE
HEAVY RAIN WILL BE ALONG THE COAST THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. WEDNESDAY
MAY BE A LITTLE ROUGH AS THE FRONT SLIDES ACROSS THE REGION AND
MODERATE DYNAMICS PRODUCE A LINE OF HEAVY SHOWERS. WITH AN ALREADY
SATURATED PLAYING FIELD...MODERATE RAIN RATES AND A RELATIVELY SLOW
MOVING LINE OF STORMS WILL BRING THE THREAT FOR FLASH FLOODING TO
THE AREA WEDNESDAY. SOME THUNDER MAY BE HEARD WHILE THE SEVERE
THREAT REMAINS VERY LOW.

MORNING RAIN AND THE PASSING OF THE COLD FRONT WILL LIKELY RESULT IN
SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES WEDNESDAY. THE COMBINATION OF
COOL NORTHERLY AIR AND RAIN BEHIND THE FRONT WILL KEEP TEMPERATURE
5F-10F BELOW NORMAL THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 230 PM EDT MONDAY...

THE UPPER TROUGH PAIRED WITH THE ONSHORE FLOW PAIRING WILL MAKE SLOW
PROGRESS ACROSS THE AREA DURING THIS PORTION OF THE FORECAST
PACKAGE. THE LATEST GUIDANCE POINTS AT ROUGHLY SATURDAY NIGHT INTO
SUNDAY FOR THE UPPER TROUGH AXIS TO MOVE EAST OF THE AREA. ONCE THIS
TAKES PLACE...ANTICIPATE PRECIPITATION CHANCES DECREASING
SIGNIFICANTLY...AND NOTABLY COOLER AIR ADVANCING INTO AT LEAST THE
WESTERN PORTION OF THE AREA. BY SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY...EXPECT
LOW TEMPERATURES RANGING FROM THE LOW TO MID 40S ACROSS THE
MOUNTAINS TO THE MID TO UPPER 40S ACROSS THE PIEDMONT. HIGH
TEMPERATURES ON MONDAY ARE EXPECTED TO RANGE FROM THE LOW TO MID 60S
ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS AND MID TO UPPER 60S ACROSS THE PIEDMONT.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 230 PM EDT TUESDAY...

POOR FLYING CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING
AREAWIDE AS THE MID ATLANTIC REGION REMAINS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF
DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE RIDING NORTHWARD FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO.

SHOWERS OF LIGHT TO LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN WILL PERSIST ACROSS THE
REGION THIS EVENING AS AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE ADVANCES
NORTHWARD TO THE WEST OF THE FORECAST REGION. RAINFALL WILL CAUSE
VISIBILITIES TO BOUNCE UP AND DOWN...POTENTIALLY AS LOW AS 1SM AT
TIMES. CEILINGS WILL REMAIN AT IFR LEVELS ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS...
BUT WILL FLUCTUATE BETWEEN IFR AND MVFR EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE
THROUGH 30/00Z...BEFORE FALLING BACK TO IFR LEVELS FOR THE NIGHT.

RAINFALL WILL DIMINISH DURING THE EVENING AS THE DISTURBANCE
PUSHES AWAY FROM THE AREA...RESULTING IN MORE OF A LIGHT SHOWERY
NATURE. REGARDLESS...EXPECT IFR STRATUS AND MVFR FOG WILL FILL
BACK IN...WITH LITTLE CHANGE IN CONDITIONS THROUGH THE END OF THE
TAF FORECAST PERIOD.

BETTER FLYING CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED FOR WEDNESDAY AS A COLD
FRONT DRIFTS ACROSS THE AREA DURING THE MORNING AND AFTERNOON...
SHIFTING WINDS FROM THE NORTHWEST. EXPECT SHOWER ACTIVITY TO
PERSIST HOWEVER...WITH LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS THAT WILL CAUSE
TEMPORARY REDUCTIONS IN VISIBILITY.

EXTENDED AVIATION DISCUSSION...

MODELS SUGGEST POOR FLYING CONDITIONS MAY LINGER ACROSS A LARGE
GEOGRAPHIC AREA FOR THE REMAINDER OF THIS WEEK AND POTENTIALLY
INTO THE WEEKEND. SUB VFR CONDITIONS ARE LIKELY THROUGH
FRIDAY...WITH GRADUAL IMPROVEMENT OVER THE WEEKEND.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
AS OF 445 AM EDT TUESDAY...

LINE OF BROKEN SHOWERS HAVE BEEN TRACKING FROM AROUND RALEIGH TO
BLACKSBURG SINCE AROUND 8PM. 1 TO 2 INCHES OF RAIN HAS BEEN
REPORTED IN LESS THAN THREE HOURS WITH SOME OF THE HEAVIER
RAINFALL. RATES WERE AS HIGH AS 0.50 INCHES PER HOUR. THIS RAIN
WAS FALLING OVER COUNTIES THAT ALREADY HAD AS MUCH AS 5 TO 10
INCHES OF RAIN SINCE THURSDAY NIGHT. IN ADDITION AS LOW PRESSURE
TRACKS UP THE SPINE OF THE APPALACHIANS THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING...MODELS WERE SHOWING THE POTENTIAL FOR MODERATE TO HEAVY
RAIN AROUND THE NORTH AND EAST SIDE OF THE LOW...ESPECIALLY WHERE
THE EAST AND SOUTHEAST SURFACE AND LOW LEVEL WINDS INCREASE
UPSLOPE ALONG THE BLUE RIDGE.

BASED ON THE LOCATION OF THE PREVIOUS HEAVY RAINFALL AMOUNTS...THE
EXPECTED LOCATION OF HEAVY RAINFALL TODAY AND TONIGHT AND THE
ONGOING FEED OF MOISTURE AND TRAINING SHOWERS OVER THE FOOTHILLS
AND PIEDMONT...HAVE ISSUED A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR TODAY INTO
WEDNESDAY MORNING.

EXPECT A MAJORITY OF THE RAIN THAT FALLS TODAY AND TONIGHT TO
RUNOFF...INITIALLY IMPACTING SMALL STREAMS AND CREEKS WITH RAPID
RISES AND POSSIBLE FLOODING. LATER TODAY AND INTO THE END OF THE
WEEK MAINSTEM RIVERS WILL RESPOND TO THE RAINFALL. FLOODING ON THE
RIVERS IS NOT CERTAIN BUT WILL BE MONITORED CLOSELY.
