AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
305 PM EDT MON JUN 8 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE REGION FROM THE NORTHWEST TODAY.
THIS WILL GENERATE STRONG THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT.
THE FRONT WILL WASH OUT TO OUR SOUTH AND REMAIN CLOSE ENOUGH TO KEEP A
CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IN OUR FORECAST FOR TUESDAY. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD IN WITH FAIR WEATHER FOR THE MIDDLE OF THE
WEEK...AND MARK THE START OF A WARMING TREND WITH HOT SUMMERLIKE
WEATHER EXPECTED ACROSS THE REGION BY FRIDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 300 PM EDT MONDAY...

QUICK UPDATE TO ADD DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL WHERE SVR TSTM
WATCH IS IN EFFECT OVER SE WV INTO ALLEGHANYS/FAR SW VA. NO OTHER
MAJOR CHANGES TO THE FORECAST THRU THIS AFTERNOON.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...

NOW SEEING CONVECTION FIRING FROM FAR SW VA/NW NC MTNS NE INTO THE
NRV. THIS LINES UP WELL WITH PREVIOUS FORECAST. MADE ADJUSTMENTS
OVERALL TO FOLLOW LATEST HRRR AND TRENDS SUGGESTING STORMS WILL
ERUPT OVER MOST OF THE BLUE RIDGE AND NEARBY THEN TAKE OFF TOWARD
THE NE IN THE MEAN SW FLOW OF 20-25KTS INTO THE PIEDMONT BY 2-4PM.
FURTHER WEST...SECONDARY AREA OF LIFT AHEAD OF FRONT WITH BETTER
POOLING OF MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY WILL START TO FIRE THIS
AFTERNOON AS WELL WITH MOST ORGANIZED CONVECTION HOLDING OFF TIL
AFTER 3-4PM. STILL LOOKS LIKE LATE AFTERNOON/EVENING FOR MODEST
LIFT ARRIVES INTO THE WV MTNS.

ADJUSTMENTS ALSO MADE TO OTHER WX ELEMENTS. TEMPS WILL BE WARM
TODAY OUTSIDE OF ANY RAIN...WITH MID 80S COMMON...AND SOME UPPER
80S NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION IN THE URBAN AREAS OF ROANOKE/LYH/DAN.
SW WINDS WILL BE BREEZY AT TIMES WHICH SHOULD ALLEVIATE THE HEAT
SOMEWHAT.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION FROM EARLY MORNING...

MODEL GUIDANCE DEPICTION OF THE SCENARIO FOR TODAY HAS NOT CHANGED
APPRECIABLY DURING THE LAST SEVERAL RUNS. THIS WILL HAVE AN UPPER TROF
DIGGING INTO THE EASTERN US AND DRIVING A SURFACE LOW WELL TO OUR NORTH
ACROSS SOUTHERN CANADA. A WEAK COLD FRONT EXTENDS BACK FROM THE LOW
THROUGH THE OHIO AND MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEYS AND THIS WILL MOVE THROUGH
OUR AREA TONIGHT. CONDITIONS AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL REMAIN MODERATELY
UNSTABLE WITH CAPE VALUES IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF 1500J/KG AND THIS WILL
EASILY BE ENOUGH TO SUPPORT CONVECTION.

THE QUESTION THUS FAR HAS BEEN HOW MUCH DYNAMIC SUPPORT WILL BE
AVAILABLE TO COMBINE WITH THE INSTABILITY TO POTENTIALLY GENERATE
SEVERE STORMS. INDICATIONS ARE THAT THE BEST SUPPORT WILL SHEAR OFF TO
OUR NORTH AND BELIEVE THE LATEST SPC OUTLOOK HANDLES THE SITUATION WELL
WITH A MARGINAL RISK FOR SVR ACROSS MOST OF THE REGION WITH A SLIGHT
RISK RIGHT UP TO OUR WESTERN DOORSTEP. 850MB WINDS DO INCREASE AND GIVE
US A SUBSTANTIAL HODOGRAPH...BUT WITH THE SLOW MOVEMENT OF THE FRONT
THIS WILL NOT BE UNTIL EARLY TONIGHT WHICH IS AFTER PEAK HEATING AND
MAXIMUM INSTABILITY. ALSO...BELIEVE OUTFLOW FROM CURRENT CONVECTION
ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY WILL RUN OUT AHEAD OF THE FRONT AND KICK OFF
THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE AFTERNOON..LIKELY BOTTOM LINE IS TO EXPECT
VIGOROUS STORMS TO DEVELOP WITH PEAK TIME MID/LATE AFTERNOON INTO THE
EVENING WITH ANOTHER ROUND OF WEAKENING STORMS MOVING IN FROM THE WEST
WITH THE FRONT EARLY TONIGHT. THINGS THEN START TO WIND DOWN AFTER
ABOUT 2AM AS THE LINGERING ACTIVITY SINKS SOUTH THROUGH THE REGION.

ALSO...THERE HAS BEEN SOME SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL DURING THE PAST WEEK OR
SO AND STORMS TODAY WILL BE IN A VERY MOIST ENVIRONMENT. EXPECT
TORRENTIAL DOWNPOURS AND SOME LOCALIZED FLOODING...AND POSSIBLY SOME
LARGER SCALE HYDRO ISSUES IF SIGNIFICANT TRAINING DEVELOPS.

TEMPERATURES TODAY SHOULD BE A FEW DEGREES WARMER THAN YESTERDAY WITH
MID/UPPER 80S EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE AND UPPER 70S/LOWER 80S TO THE
WEST. WITH DEW POINTS IN THE 60S THIS WILL MAKE FOR A MUGGY MONDAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 400 AM EDT MONDAY...

AT 12Z TUE...WE SHOULD SEE A PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH ACROSS EASTERN VA
INTO NORTH CENTRAL NC...WITH THE TRUE FRONTAL BOUNDARY LAGGING
BACK ACROSS WV...AS WILL BE THE SUPPORTING UPPER TROUGH.
UPPER-LEVEL SUPPORT WILL BE DIMINISHING AS THE DAY PROGRESSES WITH
THE MAIN DYNAMICS SHIFTING INTO THE NORTHEAST U.S.
HOWEVER...LEFTOVER CONVECTIVE BOUNDARIES AND A LINGERING
MOIST/UNSTABLE AIR MASS SHOULD PROMOTE THE DEVELOPMENT OF
SCATTERED SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS...ALBEIT NOT AS NUMEROUS ON MON IN
ADVANCE OF/ALONG THE FRONT. MAIN FOCUS FOR TUESDAY SHOULD BE
CLOSEST TO THE LINGERING FRONTAL BOUNDARY...ROUGHLY LYH-MTV-TNB
EASTWARD...AND DIURNAL CONVECTION FROM DIFFERENTIAL HEATING AND
THE LAGGING UPPER TROUGH SUPPORT ACROSS THE WESTERN MOUNTAINS.
WOULD EXPECT THE CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION TO DIMINISH RAPIDLY WITH
THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING...WITH LITTLE ACTIVITY EXPECTED AFT
04Z WED. MAX TEMPS WILL BE SLIGHTLY COOLER ACROSS THE WEST...BUT
STILL WELL INTO THE 80S EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE.

WED-THU WILL FEATURE AN INCREASINGLY SUMMERLIKE PATTERN. 500MB
HEIGHTS RISE TOWARD 588DM DURING THIS TIME FRAME AS A BROAD
SUBTROPICAL RIDGE BUILDS NORTHWESTWARD FROM THE BAHAMAS. THE
REMNANT FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL BE LOCATED FROM CENTRAL AL/CENTRAL
GA INTO SC/NC AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PERIOD...BUT DRIFT NORTHWARD
TOWARD OUR CWA BY FRI. FOR WED-THU...DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE WILL
BE HELD SOUTH OF THE REGION...BUT DIFFERENTIAL HEATING WILL LIKELY
TRIGGER ISOLATED AFTERNOON SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS ALONG THE
SOUTHWEST PART OF THE BLUE RIDGE FROM WATAUGA UP INTO
GRAYSON...WITH A SLIGHTLY FURTHER NORTHWARD TREND OF THIS ACTIVITY
ON THU. BY FRI...WITH DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE RETURNING TO MUCH OF
THE FORECAST AREA...ESPECIALLY SOUTH OF THE I-64 CORRIDOR...WOULD
EXPECT A GREATER PROBABILITY AND COVERAGE OF AFTERNOON
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS...ESPECIALLY WEST AND SOUTH.

TWO FEATURES TO KEEP AN EYE ON THROUGH THE PERIOD...A POSSIBLE
TROPICAL DEPRESSION FORMING IN THE CENTRAL GULF LATE IN THE
WEEK...WHICH AT A MINIMUM WILL ALLOW DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE TO
BEING TRACKING NORTHWARD AROUND THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE...AND A
FRONTAL BOUNDARY APPROACHING FROM THE NORTH. THIS LATER FEATURE
HAS A LIMITED CHANCE OF MAKING IT DOWN INTO THE CWA GIVEN THE
BUILDING HEIGHTS AND BLOCKING FLOW ALOFT.

COOLING BEHIND THE FRONT TUESDAY IS MINIMAL...WITH ONLY A BRIEF
DROP IN 850MB TEMPS. INCREASING AMOUNTS OF SUNSHINE AND BUILDING
HEIGHTS ALOFT ALONG WITH DOWNSLOPE WESTERLY FLOW WILL ACTUALLY
YIELD MAX TEMPS HIGHER TUE THAN ON MON. WARMING WILL CONTINUE INTO
THE LATER HALF OF THE WEEK WITH POCKETS OF 850MB TEMPS EXCEEDING
+20C ACROSS MUCH OF THE CWA. THIS SHOULD ALLOW AREAS EAST OF THE
BLUE RIDGE TO POKE INTO THE LOW 90S WED-FRI...WITH MID TO UPPER
70S MOUNTAINS AND WELL INTO THE 80S ELSEWHERE. MIN TEMPS WILL SHOW
A SLIGHT DECREASE TUE IN THE WEST BEHIND THE FRONT AND WED AS A
RESULT OF DRIER AIR...BUT OTHERWISE SHOULD BE ABOVE NORMAL.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 430 AM EDT MONDAY...

AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF WARM AND HUMID CONDITIONS APPEAR LIKELY WITH
SCATTERED TO OCCASIONALLY NUMEROUS DIURNALLY DRIVEN SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS. THE DOMINANT FEATURE THROUGH THE PERIOD WILL BE A
LARGE SUBTROPICAL UPPER RIDGE...DRIFTING SLOWLY WEST THROUGH THE
PERIOD FROM THE SOUTHEAST STATES INTO THE MID-SOUTH. A FRONTAL
BOUNDARY/BAROCLINIC ZONE WILL LIKELY REMAIN NORTH OF THE REGION
MUCH OF THE PERIOD WITH THE BEST THREAT OF STRONGER THUNDERSTORMS
AND ASSOCIATED BETTER DYNAMICS REMAINING ACROSS THE OH VALLEY INTO
THE NORTHEAST. HOWEVER...THERE IS AGREEMENT AMONG THE LONG RANGE
MODELS OF A POSSIBLE BACKDOOR FRONT DRIFTING INTO THE REGION OVER
THE WEEKEND. THIS COULD SERVE TO ENHANCE CONVECTION SAT-SUN. THIS
BOUNDARY IS LEFT LINGERING UNDER THE UPPER RIDGE INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK. THESE FEATURES COMBINED WITH DEEP TROPICAL
MOISTURE...POSSIBLY FROM A TROPICAL DEPRESSION IN THE
CENTRAL/EASTERN GULF BY THE WEEKEND/EARLY NEXT WEEK...SHOULD YIELD
ABOVE AVERAGE DIURNAL CONVECTION ALONG WITH LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL...BUT OVERALL THE SEVERE THREAT APPEARS LOW. MIN
TEMPERATURES WILL BE NOTABLY ABOVE NORMAL...WITH MAX TEMPS NEAR TO
SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL...THANKS TO THE INCREASINGLY HIGH
DEWPOINTS/RH LEVELS. LOWS 60S MOUNTAINS TO NEAR 70 PIEDMONT AND
HIGHS UPPER 70S TO AROUND 80 MOUNTAINS TO THE LOWER 90S PIEDMONT.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 130 PM EDT MONDAY...

WILL FOLLOW HIGH-RES MODELS THIS AFTERNOON INTO EVENING THEN MORE
OF THE GFS/WRF OVERNIGHT-18Z TUESDAY.

AVIATION CONCERNS THIS AFTERNOON WILL CENTER AROUND TSRA AND GUSTY
SW WINDS. RADAR SHOWING STORMS ISOLATED/WIDELY SCATTERED FROM
TRI- SOUTH OF ROA...WITH A BETTER LINE OF STORMS FURTHER WEST FROM
CRW-HTS SOUTH INTO SE KY. THINK ROA/LYH WILL HAVE THE TSRA INVOF
TERMINALS AT THE START OF THE TAF PERIOD WITH THE REST OF
TERMINALS STARTING AFTER 19Z-20Z. SINCE THE COVERAGE IS MORE
SPOTTY THIS AFTERNOON WILL NOT GO WITH PREDOMINANT THUNDER IN THE
TAFS...BUT HAVE TEMPO AT ROANOKE.

SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL BE IN THE 8-15 KT RANGE WITH GUSTS OVER 20
KTS.

AS WE HEAD TOWARD LATE AFTERNOON/EVENING THE MORE ORGANIZED STORMS
WILL MOVE TOWARD BLF/LWB THEN SHIFT TO BCB/ROA IN THE 23Z-02Z TIME
FRAME. WILL STILL HAVE RAIN SHOWERS DOMINATE WX WITH TEMPO
THUNDERSTORMS. THIS ACTIVITY MOVES EAST THROUGH THE EVENING BUT
LOOKS TO WEAKEN SOMEWHAT WITH MAINLY SHOWERS FOLLOWING THE MAIN
LINE OF STORMS IN THE WEST.

DEPENDING ON HOW MUCH WIND FOLLOWS THE SHOWERS WILL DETERMINE
EXTENT OF ANY FOG OR LOWER CIGS. WENT A TAD MORE OPTIMISTIC THAN
THE 12Z GFS BUT STILL LOOKING AT MVFR CIGS/VSBYS IN THE WRN
TERMINALS BLF/LWB...WITH MOST TAF SITES INCREASE TO VFR AFTER
12-13Z TUESDAY.

THE WINDS WILL SHIFT MORE TO THE WEST-WNW BY LATE TUESDAY MORNING
ALLOWING FOR MORE DRYING LEE OF THE APPALACHIANS. STILL SOME
QUESTION HOW FAR THE DEEPER MOISTURE MAKES IT EAST OF THE FORECAST
AREA WITH SOME HINT OF POSSIBLE TSRA DEVELOPMENT ALONG/EAST OF A
LYH/DAN LINE TUESDAY AFTERNOON. ADDITIONALLY UPSLOPE CLOUDINESS
AND A FEW LIGHT SHOWERS CANNOT BE RULED OUT AT BLF/LWB WITH LOW
END VFR CIGS.

EXTENDED AVIATION DISCUSSION...

THE REST OF THE WEEK WILL BE SUMMER LIKE AFTER A BRIEF DRY PERIOD
TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. WILL BE HEATING UP WITH DIURNALLY
DRIVEN CONVECTION MAINLY OVER THE MTNS. EXPECT TO SEE FOG AND
POSSIBLE LOW STRATUS BY THURSDAY MORNING INTO THE WEEKEND MORNING
AT BCB/LWB...AND POSSIBLY LYH/DAN.
