Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wakefield VA
813 PM EDT WED AUG 17 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
A frontal boundary will approach the region from the northwest
late this evening and settle over the area Thursday. The boundary
will drop farther south into the Carolinas on Friday...as high
pressure builds into New England.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
Another afternoon of isolated to scattered storms developing
and moving slowly across the area...mainly inland NE NC, the
Eastern Tidewater and VA Piedmont counties thus far this evening.
Despite PW values around 2" and sfc based CAPE 2500-4000 J/KG,
minimal effective shear and warm air aloft have kept areal
coverage of showers rather low.

Showers and storms are gradually diminishing in areal coverage
across the south, and expect this trend to continue through the
next few hours. Farther north, however...rain chances continue
through the early overnight hours. A weak s/w aloft tracks by
just N of the FA tonight. Subtle, persistent lift supplied by
this feature will result in numerous rounds of sct showers and
storms over the northern half of the area, mainly along and just
south of weak frontal boundary analyzed from DC/Capital district
to just north of our Eastern Shore counties. Will keep heavy
rain/gusty winds mention for now over northern areas in the HWO.

Eventually expect frontal boundary will drop S across the northern
half of the FA overnight, with partial clearing late. Will likely
see some patchy fog/low Stratus re-occur tonight along and just
south of the boundary, especially along and west of i-95 where
narrow areas of 1-3" of rain occurred earlier this evening. Early
morning lows in the l-m70s inland...m-u70s at the coast.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY/...
The front gradually drops through SRN VA-NE NC through Thu. POPs
for the most part will be in the 30-50% range with emphasis on
SRN/SE areas. Locally heavy possible as PWAT linger from 2-2.25".
Vrb clouds to mostly cloudy...warm and humid w/ highs mainly in
the m-u80s to l90s.

The front gradually drops into the Carolinas Thu night. POPs
taper off from 30-50% during the evening to 20-30% across far SE
VA/coastal NE NC. Lows mainly in the l-m70s (u70s right near the
coast).

Fri into Sat will have remnant frontal boundary lingering over SRN
VA-NRN NC. Very weak ridge aloft w/ any forcing quite weak. Will
be warm/humid w/ vrb clouds and mainly diurnally driven convection
(locally heavy possible). Highs in the u80s-l90s. Lows in the 70s.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Long term period starts off Sat night/Sun with an upper-level
trough and associated surface cold front approaching from the
west. This will lead to a good chance of shras/tstms especially
late Sun. Temps Sun warm up into the lwr 90s ahead of the front.
12Z GFS/ECMWF then agree on a fropa Sun night, with drier
conditions thereafter through mid week as sfc hi pres builds into
the region. High temps mainly in the 80s Mon through Wed with low
temps in the mid 60s to lwr 70s.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
Mainly VFR conditions are expected thru the TAF period. However,
a frontal boundary will drop ESE into/acrs portions of the region
later this evening thru Thu. This will result in isolated to at
least sctd showers and tstms ovr the area during this time period.
RIC and SBY taf sites have the highest POPS this evening into
early Thu morning, so will have prevailing SHRA within this
period. Will have VCSH at ORF and PHF and just VCTS at ECG.
There could be some ptchy MVFR BR late tngt especially in areas
that get rain. The front drops south of the region Fri, then
lifts back north through the area Sat/Sun with another chance of
showers/tstms.

&&

.MARINE...
Sub-sca conditions expected this week. A weak frontal boundary
over the northern Mid Atlc this aftn will drop into the local area
and dissipate by Thu, with winds staying mainly aob 10 kt during
this timeframe and waves 1-2 ft/seas 2-3 ft. Very weak pressure
gradient into the day Fri will keep winds light and vrb. Sub-sca
criteria winds then shift back to the south Fri night through Sun
ahead of the next cold front, which crosses the region early
Mon.

&&

.CLIMATE...
ORF tied another record high min TUE 8/16 (see RER for details).

Record highs and record high mins for Wed are listed below:

* Record Highs:

* Today Wed (8/17)

* RIC    99 (1988)
