AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
214 PM EDT MON APR 20 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION THIS AFTERNOON INTO
TONIGHT AND BRING SHOWERS AND SOME STRONG THUNDERSTORMS TO THE
REGION. WE WILL THEN SETTLE INTO A COOLER...BREEZY...AND SOMEWHAT
UNSETTLED PATTERN THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE WORKWEEK...WITH THE
BEST CHANCE OF MORE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARRIVING WITH
ANOTHER FRONT ON WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 1024 AM EDT MONDAY...

ACTIVE WEATHER DAY WITH LINGERING FLOODING ISSUES FROM SUNDAY TO
SUNDAY NIGHT HEAVY RAINS AND A SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR THIS
AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT WITH COLD FRONT. SWODY1 HAS ADDED AN
ENHANCED POTENTIAL (30 PERCENT) TO SLIGHT RISK WHICH COVERS MUCH
OF OUR FORECAST AREA TODAY. THE MAIN THREATS FOR THUNDERSTORMS
PRODUCING DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL...ALONG WITH LOCALLY HEAVY
RAIN. MODIFIED MORNING 12Z RNK SOUNDING SUPPORTS CONCERNS WITH
MODIFIED CAPES AROUND 1000 TO 2000 J/KG WITH HEALTHY SHEAR AROUND
40 KNOTS. ADJUSTED TIMING OF POPS CLOSER TO A BLEND OF HRRR AND
WRFRNK-ARW. MODIFIED TEMPERATURES AND DEW POINTS WITH SFC OBS AND
MODEL TRENDS. COLD FRONT PUSHES EAST ACROSS REGION THIS AFTERNOON
INTO THIS EVENING...THEN HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN BEHIND FRONT
TUESDAY. MORE CHANGES THIS AFTERNOON...

AS OF 525 AM EDT MONDAY...

THERE ARE LINGERING HYDRO ISSUES EARLY THIS MORNING FOLLOWING THE
WIDESPREAD HEAVY RAIN FROM SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT...AND SEVERAL
FLOOD WARNINGS REMAIN IN EFFECT FROM THE NORTH CAROLINA MOUNTAINS
THROUGH THE GRAYSON HIGHLANDS AND INTO SOUTHWEST VIRGINIA UNTIL
AROUND 9AM. THE SITUATION WILL CONTINUED TO BE MONITORED WITH
ADJUSTMENTS MADE ACCORDINGLY.

THE NEXT CONCERN IS THE APPROACHING COLD FRONT SET TO CROSS THE
AREA THIS AFTERNOON. MESO MODELS DISSIPATE THE CONVECTIVE COMPLEX
CURRENTLY APPROACHING FROM THE WEST WITH REDEVELOPMENT FIRING
LATER THIS MORNING INTO THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS THE REGION...
ESPECIALLY FRONT HE BLUE RIDGE EAST. EARLY MORNING SATELLITE PICS
SHOW BREAKS IN THE CLOUD COVER AND WITH 850MB TEMPS AROUND 12C WE
SHOULD SEE SURFACE TEMPERATURES RISE WELL INTO THE 70S TODAY. THIS
WILL GENERATE CAPE VALUES OF 1000J/KG TO 1500J/KG WHICH WILL BE
ENOUGH TO SUPPORT VIGOROUS CONVECTION. LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL GIVE
US 0/6KM BULK SHEAR VALUES OF 40KTS TO 50KTS WITH A SOMEWHAT
LINEAR HODOGRAPH. THUS THERE IS ENOUGH INSTABILITY AND SHEAR
PRESENT FOR A SEVERE THREAT...AND THE SPC SLIGHT RISK LOOKS TO BE
ON TARGET. WILL BE ANTICIPATING STORM CLUSTERS EVOLVING INTO
LINEAR ELEMENTS TO PRODUCE A WIND THREAT...AND THE MORE VIGOROUS
CELLS SHOULD HAVE ENOUGH CAPE IN THE HAIL GROWTH ZONE TO SUPPORT
LARGE HAIL POTENTIAL AS WELL. WHILE SWATS REMAIN HIGH BELIEVE ANY
HEAVY RAIN WILL BE LOCALIZED AND FURTHER EAST WHICH SHOULD HELP
AVOID AGGRAVATING THE HYDRO SITUATION. ENOUGH INGREDIENTS FOR A BUSY
AFTERNOON ON RADAR.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 214 PM EDT MONDAY...

UPPER TROUGH WILL BE SITUATED RIGHT OVER THE AREA TUESDAY NIGHT WITH
NEXT SFC FRONT WORKING ACROSS BY WEDNESDAY...THOUGH WITH MORE WNW
FLOW ALOFT AND LACK OF SOUTHERLY INFLOW AHEAD OF THIS
SYSTEM...MOISTURE WILL BE LIMITED. AS SUCH HAVE LIMITED CHANCE POPS
OVER THE MOUNTAINS WITH SOME CHANCE INTO THE NE PIEDMONT OF
VA...WITH LESS COVERAGE INTO THE NC PIEDMONT...AS WE SHOULD SEE SOME
DOWNSLOPE DRYING AND SHEARING OF THE VERTICAL DEVELOPMENT. JUST
ENOUGH INSTABILITY WITH COLDER AIR ALOFT TO MENTION THUNDER IN THE
AFTERNOON WEDNESDAY. SHOULD BE A BREEZY DAY WITH HIGHS FROM THE
UPPER 50S OVER SE WV TO LOWER 70S SOUTHEAST.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY WILL BE MAINLY DRY WITH CONTINUED
UPPER TROUGH SLIDING ACROSS THE AREA...BUT AXIS SHIFTING MORE OVER
THE COAST. NW FLOW MAY KEEP SHOWERS GOING INTO THE MOUNTAINS WED
EVENING.  UPPER RIDGING ARRIVES OVER THE LOWER MS VALLEY WITH SFC
HIGH IN THE TN VALLEY.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 130 PM EDT MONDAY...

NOT MUCH CHANGE TO THIS FORECAST. HIGH PRESSURE AT THE SFC BUILDS
SOUTHEAST FROM THE OHIO VALLEY INTO FRIDAY. A SOUTHERN STREAM LOW
ARRIVES OVER THE AR/OK BORDER BY SATURDAY MORNING WITH OVERRUNNING
CLOUDS WORKING INTO THE AREA FRIDAY AHEAD OF A WARM FRONT. BY
SATURDAY ENOUGH MOISTURE TO ALLOW FOR SHOWERS TO FORM BY SATURDAY
MORNING WITH BEST FORCING ACROSS THE CAROLINAS. THIS SYSTEM EXITS BY
SAT NIGHT WITH SUNDAY BEING A DRY AND COOL/MILD DAY WITH HIGHS IN
THE 50S MOUNTAINS TO 60S EAST. HIGH PRESSURE TO ASSUME POSITION OVER
THE OHIO VALLEY INTO THE SRN APPALACHIANS MONDAY TO KEEP THINGS DRY.
NEXT SOUTHERN STREAM SYSTEM MAY WORK SOME SHOWERS OUR WAY BY TUESDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 140 PM EDT MONDAY...

VFR CONDITIONS WILL LOWER THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT IN
CONVECTION TO MVFR AND IFR AHEAD AND ALONG A COLD FRONT.
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP QUICKLY WITH THE COLD FRONT
AS IT MOVES EAST ACROSS THE REGION AND EXITS THIS EVENING.

THERE IS SLIGHT TO ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS
AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT ESPECIALLY EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE
MOUNTAINS. ISOLATED GUSTS AROUND 50 KNOT MAY BE POSSIBLE WITH ANY
SEVERE THUNDERSTORM.

PRESSURE RISES BEHIND THE FRONT WILL BRING BREEZY AND GUSTY
WESTERLY WINDS TO THE AREA THIS EVENING INTO TONIGHT. ALSO
THIS EVENING INTO TONIGHT BEHIND THE FRONT...SOME MVFR CEILINGS
ARE POSSIBLE IN THE MOUNTAINS. UNCERTAINTY ON HOW LOW CEILINGS
WILL GET ONCE THE SHOWERS CLEAR OUT TONIGHT. ANOTHER ISSUE IS THAT
ANY LOCATION THAT RECEIVED OVER AN INCH OF RAIN MAY SEE FOG
DEVELOPING OVERNIGHT INTO TUESDAY. VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD RETURN
LATER TONIGHT AND TUESDAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN BEHIND
THE FRONT WITH A DRIER AIRMASS.

EXTENDED AVIATION...

THEN THE NEXT CHANCE OF MVFR CONDITIONS AND PRECIPITATION WILL BE
IN THE MOUNTAINS ON WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. HIGH PRESSURE
AT THE SURFACE BUILDS SOUTHEAST FROM THE OHIO VALLEY THURSDAY
NIGHT INTO FRIDAY. OVERRUNNING CLOUDS WORKING INTO THE AREA
FRIDAY AHEAD OF A WARM FRONT. BY SATURDAY...ENOUGH MOISTURE TO
ALLOW FOR SHOWERS TO FORM BY SATURDAY MORNING WITH BEST FORCING
ACROSS THE CAROLINAS.
