Special Weather Statement, NWS Blacksburg, VA

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
334 PM EDT MON AUG 10 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A WARM FRONT WILL LIFT SLOWLY NORTHEAST THROUGH THE REGION TONIGHT
ACCOMPANIED BY SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...
SOME WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN. ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND STORMS ARE
EXPECTED ON TUESDAY AS A COLD FRONT MOVES SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE
REGION. HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD INTO THE AREA BEHIND THE
FRONT...BRINGING COOLER AND NOTICEABLY DRIER AIR BACK INTO THE MID
APPALACHIAN AND MID ATLANTIC STATES FOR THE MIDWEEK PERIOD INTO THE
UPCOMING WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 330 PM EDT MONDAY...

STRONG WARM MOIST ADVECTION CONTINUES OVER THE BLACKSBURG FORECAST
AREA AS A DIFFUSE WARM FRONT LIFTS NORTHEAST THROUGH THE REGION.
RESULTING BROAD UPWARD VERTICAL MOTION FIELDS ARE BEING AUGMENTED BY
SOME LIMITED INSOLATION...ESPECIALLY ACROSS SOUTHWESTERN
VA...AND HAS RESULTED IN REDEVELOPMENT OF SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. ANOTHER BATCH OF STORMS FORMING FURTHER
WEST IN KY IMMEDIATELY IN ADVANCE OF NEXT UPSTREAM SHORT WAVE
TROF...AND WHERE BETTER AFTERNOON ISOLATION/INSTABILITY EXISTS.
THEREFORE...CURRENT CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY WILL LIKELY BE REPLACED
BY A SECOND ROUND OF ACTIVITY LATER THIS EVENING INTO AT LEAST
EARLY TONIGHT AS UPSTREAM SHORTWAVE CONTINUES EAST INTO/THOUGH
THE FORECAST AREA.

PRECIPITABLE WATER IS FORECAST TO RISE TO AROUND 2.0 INCHES IN THE
MOUNTAINS...TO AS HIGH AS 2.2 INCHES ACROSS THE PIEDMONT BY EARLY
EVENING. WITH A VERY MOIST AIRMASS IN PLACE...LAPSE RATES IN LOWER
AND MID TROPOSPHERE OVER THE BLACKSBURG FORECAST AREA NOT ALL
THAT IMPRESSIVE...YIELDING CONVECTIVE AVAILABLE POTENTIAL ENERGY
(CAPE) VALUES OF WELL UNDER 2000 J/KG IN MOST LOCATIONS. SHEAR
PROFILES ALSO REMAIN WEAK....AND AS WOULD BE EXPECTED UNDER SUCH A
SULTRY AIRMASS...LITTLE TO NO DOWNDRAFT CAPE EXISTS. WET BULB ZERO
HEIGHTS REMAIN AROUND 13K FEET...AND INSUFFICIENT AFTERNOON
INSOLATION HAS OCCURRED TO GENERATE SUFFICIENT UPWARD VERTICAL
MOTION FIELDS/INSTABILITY TO DEVELOP STRONG/HIGH ENOUGH
PRECIPITATION CORES FOR WET MICROBURSTS AND/OR HAIL SHAFTS.
THEREFORE...MAIN WEATHER THREAT INTO TONIGHT WILL CONTINUE TO BE
CENTERED ON HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL RATHER THAN THREAT FROM STRONG
WINDS OR HAIL.

FORTUNATELY...OTHER THAN IN ISOLATED INSTANCES...THE AREA HAS
EXPERIENCED RELATIVELY DRY WEATHER RECENTLY SUCH THAT GROUND
MOISTURE AND WATER LEVELS ON AREAS STREAMS/CREEKS AND RIVERS AT OR
BELOW NORMAL. THEREFORE...A LARGE SCALE FLASH FLOOD WATCH NOT YET
JUSTIFIABLE...ALTHOUGH SOME LOCALIZED FLOODING ISSUES CAN NOT
ENTIRELY BE RULED OUT WHERE STORMS REPEATEDLY TRAIN.

DIMINISHING UPWARD VERTICAL MOTION/OMEGA FIELDS LATER TONIGHT WITH
PASSAGE OF WARM FRONT AND LEADING SHORT WAVE SHOULD ALLOW FOR
GRADUAL REDUCTION IN AREAL EXTENT AND THREAT OF CONVECTIVE
ACTIVITY...BUT STILL HIGH ENOUGH TO WARRANT AT LEAST A CHANCE
THREAT FOR ALL AREAS.

COOL FRONT EXPECTED TO MOVE THROUGH THE MOUNTAINS BY LATE TUESDAY
MORNING/EARLY AFTERNOON...PRECEDED AND ACCOMPANIED BY SCATTERED
ADDITIONAL SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS. HOWEVER...GREATER THREAT WILL
BE ALONG AND EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE...WHERE LATER ARRIVAL OF FRONT
WILL COMBINE WITH INCREASING DAYTIME HEATING TO ENABLE
REDEVELOPMENT OF STRONGER WIDELY SCATTERED TO SCATTERED CONVECTION
IN ADVANCE OF AND ALONG THE FRONT. VEERING PRE-FRONTAL LOWER
TROPOSPHERIC WIND PROFILES SUGGEST THAT GREATEST THREAT FOR
WIDESPREAD CONVECTION WILL OCCUR A BIT SOUTH AND EAST OF THE
BLACKSBURG FORECAST AREA WHERE SUBTLE LEE-TROF CONVERGENCE WILL
RESIDE...BUT BRIEF BACKING OF LOW LEVEL WINDS IMMEDIATELY IN
ADVANCE OF THE FRONT AND ASSOCIATED CONVERGENCE MAY STILL BE
SUFFICIENT TO FIRE OFF AT LEAST A SCATTERED LINE OF FRONTAL ACTIVITY
EVEN NORTHWEST OF THE PRE-FRONTAL TROF IN THE BLACKSBURG FORECAST
AREA EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE.

AGAIN...OVERALL SHEAR PROFILES REMAIN RELATIVELY WEAK...BUT BETTER
THERMODYNAMICS AND FRONTAL CONVERGENCE WILL EXIST TO JUSTIFY
CONTINUED REFERENCE IN THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK FOR TUESDAY
AFTERNOON EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE...CONSISTENT WITH THE DAY 2
CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK FROM THE STORM PREDICTION CENTER.

ABUNDANT CLOUD COVER...CONTINUED WARM MOIST ADVECTION...AND A GOOD
THREAT FOR PRECIPITATION SHOULD LIMIT EXTENT OF COOLING
TONIGHT...WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS EXPECTED TO RANGE FROM THE MID 60S
ACROSS THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS...TO THE LOWER 70S IN THE PIEDMONT.

LATE MORNING/EARLY AFTERNOON ARRIVAL OF COLD FRONT IN MOUNTAINS
SHOULD LIMIT DAYTIME HIGHS TO THE UPPER 60S TO MID 70S ACROSS THE
WESTERN FLANKS OF THE APPALACHIANS...TO PERHAPS THE MID AND UPPER
80S ACROSS SOUTHSIDE VA INTO NORTH CENTRAL NC WHERE THE FRONT NOT
EXPECTED TO ARRIVE UNTIL LATE AFTERNOON.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 330 PM EDT MONDAY...

EXPECT A RELATIVELY DRY PERIOD AS A BROAD UPPER LEVEL TROUGH
STRETCHES FROM EASTERN CANADA SOUTHWARD...GENERALLY HUGGING THE
SPINE OF THE APPALACHIANS.

BY SUNSET TUESDAY...MAY STILL HAVE A FEW SHOWERS AND STORMS ACROSS
THE SOUTHSIDE AS THE COLD FRONT WILL BE ON THE VERGE OF CLEARING
THROUGH THE AREA TO THE EAST...WHILE DRY HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN
FROM THE MIDWEST REGION. MAY SEE A FEW UPSLOPE SHOWERS DEVELOP
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING AS A WEAK DISTURBANCE PASSES ACROSS OUR
WESTERN RIDGES...BUT BELIEVE MEASURABLE RAINFALL WILL BE ISOLATED
FOR THE MOST PART...CONFINED MAINLY TO SOUTHEAST WEST VIRGINIA. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL THEN BECOME CENTERED OVERHEAD WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH
THURSDAY NIGHT...MAINTAINING MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES AREAWIDE.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL ALSO BRING WITH IT COOLER TEMPERATURES AND LOW
HUMIDITY WHICH MANY SHOULD FIND RATHER COMFORTABLE FOR APPROACHING
THE MIDDLE OF AUGUST. AFTERNOON HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL RANGE FROM
THE MID 70S ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS...TO THE LOW/MID 80S ON WEDNESDAY
AND THURSDAY. LOWS WILL HOLD IN THE 60S AREAWIDE TUESDAY NIGHT...
WHILE WEDNESDAY NIGHT WILL BE THE COOLEST OF THE PERIOD...WITH LOWS
RANGING FROM THE MID 50S WEST TO THE LOW 60S EAST. A SLIGHT WARMING
TREND WILL TAKE HOLD GOING INTO THE END OF THE WORKWEEK.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 330 PM EDT MONDAY...

UPPER LEVEL RIDGING WILL REMAIN SITUATED ACROSS ALONG THE
APPALACHIAN CHAIN THROUGH THE WEEKEND...ALTHOUGH NOT AS PRONOUNCED
AS IT WAS EARLIER IN THE WEEK.

WINDS WILL SHIFT MORE SOUTHWESTERLY ON FRIDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE MOVES
OFFSHORE...WHILE ANOTHER COLD FRONT SINKS SOUTHWARD FROM THE GREAT
LAKES REGION. AS SUCH...WE CAN EXPECT A GRADUAL RETURN OF SPOTTY
AFTERNOON/EVENING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...DEVELOPING MAINLY OVER
THE MOUNTAINS. COVERAGE WILL BE ISOLATED ON FRIDAY...WITH BEST
CHANCES ACROSS THE HIGHLANDS OF NORTH CAROLINA. BETTER COVERAGE WILL
SPREAD NORTHWARD DURING THE WEEKEND AS DEEPER MOISTURE BUILDS IN
AHEAD OF THE FRONT.

THE SOUTHWESTERLY WINDFLOW WILL ALSO BRING WARMER AIR BACK INTO THE
AREA...LIFTING TEMPERATURES TO AROUND CLIMATIC NORMAL FOR MID AUGUST
BY SATURDAY AS HIGHS RANGE FROM THE LOW 80S WEST TO THE MID/UPPER
80S EAST. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL GENERALLY BE IN THE 60S THROUGH THE
PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 115 PM EDT MONDAY...

IMPROVEMENT BACK INTO VFR RANGE WILL LIKELY BE SHORT-LIVED AT ALL
TERMINAL FORECAST POINTS AS CONTINUED WARM MOIST ADVECTION...
APPROACHING WARM FRONT...AND DAYTIME HEATING PROVIDE SUFFICIENT
LIFT TO SUPPORT REDEVELOPMENT OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS IN ALL
AREAS THAT WILL FORCE CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES BACK DOWN INTO AT
LEAST MVFR RANGE LATER THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS EVENING...WITH
LOCALIZED IFR/LIFR FLIGHT RESTRICTIONS IN HEAVIER RAINFALL AREAS.

ALTHOUGH PASSAGE OF WARM FRONT OVERNIGHT AND LOSS OF DAYTIME
HEATING SHOULD SUPPORT GRADUAL REDUCTION IN INTENSITY AND COVERAGE
OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE REGION...ABUNDANT MOISTURE AND
LACK OF LOW LEVEL MIXING SHOULD COMBINE TO MAINTAIN FLIGHT
RESTRICTIONS IN MVFR RANGE...PERHAPS LOWER...WITH OBSCURATIONS
LIKELY ALONG/NEAR RIDGE LINES.

LAV GUIDANCE MAINTAINS AT LEAST MVFR RESTRICTIONS AT MOST TERMINAL
FORECAST POINTS WELL INTO TUESDAY MORNING BEFORE ONSET OF DAYTIME
HEATING AND ARRIVAL OF COLD FRONT FROM THE WEST BEGINS TO HELP
SCOUR OUT LOWER TROPOSPHERIC MOISTURE...SUPPORTING GRADUAL
IMPROVEMENT OF CEILINGS/VISIBILITIES BACK TO MAINLY VFR
CONDITIONS IN MOST AREAS BY/DURING THE AFTERNOON.

COLD FRONT WILL BE PRECEDED AND ACCOMPANIED BY ADDITIONAL
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS...WHICH SHOULD END BY EARLY TUESDAY EVENING
IN SOUTHEASTERN SECTIONS NEAR KDAN AS FRONT MOVES FURTHER
SOUTHEAST AND AWAY FROM THE AREA. HOWEVER...SOME POST FRONTAL
UPSLOPING MVFR CLOUDS AND EVEN SOME SPOTTY LIGHT SHOWERS/SPRINKLES
MAY CONTINUE WELL INTO THE EVENING ACROSS THE WESTERN FLANKS OF
THE APPALACHIANS NEAR KBLF AND KLWB.

EXTENDED AVIATION DISCUSSION...

MUCH OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD WILL BE INFLUENCED BY APPROACH AND
ARRIVAL OF LARGE DRY SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM THAT SHOULD
MAINTAIN MAINLY VFR WEATHER WITH NO FLIGHT RESTRICTIONS FOR ALL
TERMINAL FORECAST POINTS OUTSIDE OF SOME PATCHY LATE NIGHT/EARLY
MORNING MOUNTAIN AND RIVER VALLEY FOG.
