Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wakefield VA
336 PM EDT MON AUG 1 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
An upper level trough settles over the Mid-Atlantic region tonight
and Tuesday as a weak frontal boundary gradually drops south
across the area tonight and early Tuesday. This boundary stalls
across the Carolinas by midweek.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...

Latest weather analysis features upper level ridging building from
the Lower Mississippi River Valley into the Upper Great Lakes.
Upper level trough axis remains oriented from New England into the
Interior Northeast and Eastern Ohio Valley. Weak frontal
boundary/trough has begun to buckle south into the area, and has
set off a few showers across the Lower Eastern Shore this
afternoon. MLCAPE values remain highest along the coast per 19z
analysis. This in tandem with steep low-level lapse rates and
numerous areas of moisture convergence evident in RAP/HRRR will
result in sct to numerous areas of showers and t-storms this
afternoon and this evening.

Highest POPs (~60%) remain oriented across the far SE cwa, as
best upper support courtesy of upper level shortwave aloft and
anomalously moist airmass (PW 1.75-2" per 12z soundings at
WAL/GSO/MHX) will combine to bring another round of sct-numerous
showers and t-storms. Pcpn will be lower overall in areal coverage
farther north, with timing of shortwave to the north appearing a
bit slower and with modest drying aloft filtering in from the NW.
Still, iso-sct convection cannot be ruled out through early
evening, and have accordingly held pop in solid chance range area
wide through early evening. Once again, primary threat will be
with heavy rainfall in any showers that develop. HWO continues to
address this threat well and will be maintained for now.

Showers/tstms should again gradually diminish in areal coverage late
this evening through the overnight hours with stabilization and
low level lapse rates slackening. Clearing overnight will likely
result in more patchy fog towards morning. Otherwise, variably
cloudy with lows in the low to mid 70s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
The upper trough axis slides offshore Tuesday, shunting the
surface boundary farther south toward the VA/NC border by
tomorrow night. PW values drop to ~1.5in across the n/NW tier of
counties as drier air continues to filter in from the nw. POPs
have been shunted up into chc range across South Central VA/NE NC,
with PWs expected to remain in a similar 1.75-2.0" range through
tomorrow. Still appears as if the trough axis will serve as the
focusing mechanism for aftn convection. Highs tomorrow in the
mid/upper 80s (around 90 far sw). Any lingering showers/tstms
should dissipate quickly Tuesday evening due to the combination of
the trough axis pushing farther offshore and the loss of solar
insolation. Otherwise, partly cloudy Tuesday night with lows in
the upper 60s to low 70s.

The upper level flow becomes northerly late Tuesday night into
Wednesday sfc high pressure builds south across the area, with the
sfc boundary settling south across the Carolinas before washing
out. PW values drop to 1.25-1.5" Wednesday and any low- level
convergence should be concentrated south of the local area near
the front, and west of the local area across the mountains. Given
this, dry conditions are expected to prevail Wed/Thu with sct
afternoon cu. Highs average in the mid 80s both days, with low
80s along the Atlantic coast of the Ern Shore. Partly clear and
cooler by night with lows in the 60s to low 70s.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
Surface high pressure off the New England coast is expected to
push out to sea Thu night/Fri as a sfc low crosses nrn Ontario.
This feature is expected to drag a cold front through the Great
Lakes and Ohio Valley Fri...then cross the Mid Atlantic Region
Sat/Sat night. The front is now showing signs of stalling over
the Carolinas on Sun. Meanwhile, a large scale upper low
traverses the sern half of Canada...potentially bringing
cooler temps and maybe even some clouds to the area in nw flow
aloft. A little too soon to hash out these exact details, but
this would be enough to shunt the frontal boundary south of the
area as progged by long term model solutions. Little to no
changes have been made to ongoing temp/precip forecast. Overall,
aftn/evening thunderstorms possible Fri-Sun.

With sfc high pressure shifting ewd and away from the New
England/Atlantic coast, temperatures and dewpoints/humidity will
begin a gradual warming trend Fri through the upcoming weekend.
Lows Thu night around 70F inland/lower 70s beaches. Highs Fri
in the upper 80s inland/low-mid 80s beaches. Lows Fri/Sat nights
70-75F inland/mid-upper 70s se beaches. Highs Sat/Sun in the
lower 90s inland/mid 80s beaches.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
As of 18Z...A cold front was situated from low pressure over
Delaware westward across Maryland and into southern Ohio. The cold
front will move slowly to the south during the 18Z TAF period.

Scattered thunderstorms can be expected through evening. At issuance
time...convection was developing in the SBY area. There were a few
showers occurring in the ECG area. Included showers at ECG and ORF
late in the afternoon. The only thunderstorm mention for now was at
SBY for the first couple hours of the forecast.

Included IFR ceilings for a few hours around sunrise at SBY behind
the aforementioned cold front on Tuesday morning. That front
continues to the south and shifted winds to a north or northeast
direction at the rest of the sites except ECG by mid morning
Tuesday.

OUTLOOK...There will be small chances for convection late Tuesday
especially southeast portions. A dry forecast is in place
Wednesday through Friday. Scattered thunderstorms are possible
Saturday afternoon. No significant IFR is expected outside of
thunderstorms.

&&

.MARINE...
A sfc boundary located over the Delmarva late this aftn slowly
sags swd across the waters tonight into Tue...providing a focus
for thunderstorm activity each aftn/evening. For the rest of
today, winds will generally be w-sw 10-15kt through this
evening... becoming n-nw 5-10kt after midnight into Tue. By Tue
evening, the frontal boundary is expected to drape across the
Carolinas as high pressure builds over New England. Winds become
ne-e aob 15kt through Thu night. The sfc high then shifts ewd away
from the New England coast and winds become more se-s Fri/Fri
night...then s-sw on Sat as a cold front approaches the waters.
Seas average 2-3ft...but may build to 4ft from 10-20nm in the
persistent onshore flow Tue night into Thu. Waves average 1-2ft in
the Bay.

&&

.CLIMATE...
6.98 inches of rain at ORF yesterday set a daily record rainfall.
This appears to rank as the fifth highest calendar day total on
record for ORF.

Another climo note for Norfolk: Per monthly climate, July 2016
will go down as 6th warmest month on record at ORF.
