AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
317 AM EST FRI JAN 8 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
WEAK WARM FRONT PASSES TODAY. STRONGER LOW PRESSURE WHIPS COLD
FRONT THROUGH LATE SATURDAY NIGHT. BLUSTERY AND COLDER SUNDAY.
CLIPPER TYPE SYSTEM FOR MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
THIN VEIL OF SUB-FREEZING AIR LINGERS NORTH OF A LINE THAT EXTENDS
FROM HUNTINGTON TO CHARLESTON. EXPECT MOST OF THIS AIR TO ERODE AS
WARM ADVECTION OCCURS THIS MORNING AS A WARM FRONT APPROACHES.
SO...FAIRLY CONFIDENT FREEZING RAIN WILL NOT BE AN ISSUE THIS
MORNING. IF IT DOES OCCUR...OUR SE OHIO COUNTIES WOULD BE MOST AT
RISK. AN ISOLATED SLICK SPOT HERE OR THERE MAY BE AN ISSUE THERE.
OTHER THAN THAT CONCERN THE REST OF THE DAY SHOULD BE FAIRLY
PLEASANT FOR JANUARY WITH TEMPERATURES APPROACHING 50.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AN ACTIVE PATTERN THIS WEEKEND TRANSITIONS THE REGION BACK INTO
WINTER. THE DAYLIGHT HOURS ON SATURDAY ARE LOOKING MILD AND MAINLY
DRY WITH STRONG SE FLOW DEVELOPING. SO WHILE SOME HIGH CLOUDS WILL
BE AROUND...TEMPS WILL STILL BE ABLE TO MAKE IT INTO THE 50S DUE
TO SE DOWNSLOPING COMPRESSIONAL WARMING EFFECTS. SOME AREAS IN THE
BANANA BELT JUST E OF I 79 CORRIDOR INCLUDING CRW WILL MAKE A RUN
TOWARD 60. IT WILL TURN BREEZY IN THE MOUNTAINS...PARTICULARLY
ACROSS SE WV WHERE SOME 20 KT GUSTS WILL BE REALIZED. A PSUEDO
WARM FRONT/OCCLUSION WILL CROSS SATURDAY EVENING AS LOW PRESSURE
TRACKS THRU THE OH VALLEY. A BAND OF SHRA WILL MARCH THRU THE AREA
WITH THE FRONT WITH BREEZY CONDITIONS DEVELOPING OVER THE ENTIRE
AREA. A STRONG LLJ WILL ALLOW WINDS TO PICK UP IN THE DRY SLOW
LATE SATURDAY NIGHT...BEFORE CAA ARRIVES SUNDAY MORNING.

FOR SUNDAY...THE LOW PRESSURE WILL HEAD FOR THE E LAKES AS THE
ASSOCIATE UPPER TROF AXIS SWINGS THRU. THIS WILL ALLOW SHRA TO
MOVE BACK INTO THE AREA FROM THE W COINCIDING WITH CAA ALOFT.
DESPITE SOME HEALTHY DROPS AT H85...LLVL TEMPS WILL BE SLOW TO
COME DOWN SUNDAY MORNING. THIS WILL DELAY THE TRANSITION TO SHSN
OVER THE LOWLANDS A BIT. AS IT STANDS RIGHT NOW...LOOKING AT A
TRANSITION FROM SW TO NE WITH MOST PLACES HAVING SWITCHED OVER BY
MIDDAY AT THE LATEST. TEMPS WILL DROP INTO THE LOWER 30S IN THE
AFTERNOON WITH SOME 20S SHOWING UP IN THE MOUNTAINS. SHSN WILL
CONTINUE THRU THE AFTERNOON AS NW FLOW ALOFT SETS UP TO ENHANCE
THE SHSN OVER THE FAVORED AREAS IN THE MOUNTAINS. SOME COATINGS
MAY BE REALIZED OVER THE LOWLANDS WITH A FEW INCHES IN THE
MOUNTAINS BY 00Z SUNDAY. IT WILL CONTINUE TO BE WINDY WITH GUSTS
25 TO 30 KTS COMMON ON STRONG CAA AND A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT.
THIS WILL MAKE FOR WIND WHIPPED SHSN AND REDUCED VSBY FROM TIME TO
TIME.

FROM THERE...THE SHSN WILL BEGIN TO WIND DOWN AS THE TROF LIFTS
OUT AND DRY AIR ADVECTS IN FROM THE SW. STILL...COULD SEE ANOTHER
INCH IN THE N MOUNTAINS BEFORE TAPERING OFF. THE SKY WILL CLEAR
OVERNIGHT SUNDAY OUTSIDE OF THE MOUNTAINS BUT WITH A BL
WIND...THINK TEMPS MAY NOT REALIZE THEIR POTENTIAL...GENERALLY
BOTTOMING OUT IN THE LOWER 20S...WITH TEENS IN THE HIGH TERRAIN.

SUNSHINE RETURNS ON MONDAY WITH THE WINDS SLACKENING. IT WILL
REMAIN COLD WITH HIGHS GENERALLY HOVERING AROUND THE FRZ MARK IN
THE LOWLANDS AND TEENS AND 20S IN THE HIGH ELEVATION MOUNTAINS.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
THE LONG TERM BEGINS WITH A STRONG SURFACE LOW MOVING AWAY FROM THE
FORECAST AREA...AND COLD AIR SURGING IN. PRECIP SHOULD BE PRETTY
MUCH ALL SNOW TO START THE PERIOD. POPS WILL GRADUALLY DECREASE
THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY...LINGERING THE LONGEST IN THE
NORTHERN MOUNTAINOUS COUNTIES. BRIEF HIGH PRESSURE SINKS THROUGH
MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT BEFORE A CLIPPER SYSTEM LOOKS LIKE IT WILL
BRING SOME SNOW LATE TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY NIGHT. INCREASED POPS FOR
THIS...AS THE GFS HAS CHANGED FROM YESTERDAY AND NOW AGREES WITH THE
ECMWF. TEMPERATURES REMAIN BELOW AVERAGE THROUGH THE PERIOD. TUESDAY
LOOKS LIKE THE WARMEST AFTERNOON...BUT STILL A BIT BELOW NORMAL FOR
MID JANUARY.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...

PASSES THROUGH AREA BEFORE RETURNING TO VFR THIS AFTERNOON.
