AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
733 PM EDT THU APR 28 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
A COMPLEX LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL MOVE EAST ACROSS THE REGION
TONIGHT WITH A WEAK COLD FRONT CROSSING THROUGH OUR AREA FRIDAY
MORNING. WEAK HIGH PRESSURE FOLLOWS THE FRONT FRIDAY INTO FRIDAY
NIGHT BRINGING A PERIOD OF DRIER WEATHER. LOW PRESSURE WILL TRACK
UP ALONG THE FRONT LATER SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY RESULTING IN ADDED
SHOWERS OVER THE WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 420 PM EDT THURSDAY...

SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 119 ISSUED FOR MOST OF OUR AREA UNTIL 11
PM. MAIN FOCUS THROUGH 6 PM WILL BE IN THE FOOTHILLS AND PIEDMONT
OF NC INTO SOUTHSIDE VA. WEDGE OVER CHARLOTTE COURT HOUSE TO
LYNCHBURG TO AMHERST SHOULD HOLD KEEPING SVR THREAT LOW. WILL HAVE
TO WATCH UPSTREAM AS VORT LOBE PUSHES ACROSS LATER THIS
AFTERNOON/EVENING TO ENHANCE STORMS UPSTREAM OVER WV.

PREVIOUS AFTERNOON DISCUSSION...

FORECAST ISSUE THIS AFTERNOON WILL BE COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND
STORMS. WEDGE HAS HELD ALL DAY FROM CHARLOTTE COUNTY NORTHWEST TO
BEDFORD/AMHERST. VIS SAT LOOP SHOWS MINOR EROSION OF THE WEDGE AND
WITH 1018 MB HIGH OVER SRN PA WILL SEE LITTLE NE MOVEMENT OF THE
EROSION. CONVECTION OVER THE ALLEGHANYS WILL WORK EWD INTO THE WEDGE
BUT ONLY ELEVATED CONVECTION EXPECTED...SO SVR THREAT ALMOST NIL FOR
LYH TODAY.

FURTHER SOUTHWEST SUNSHINE MOST OF THE DAY HAS ALLOWED MUCAPES TO
EXCEED 2000 J/KG FROM THE NC PIEDMONT AND FOOTHILLS...NORTHWEST TO
THE SRN BLUE RIDGE OF VA. THIS SEEMS TO BE THE AREA TO WATCH
CONCERNING SVR THREAT. EFFECTIVE SHEAR IS 40-45KTS IN THIS AREA.
UPPER FLOW IS MAINLY WEST-EAST...AND FAIRLY QUICK. THIS COULD BE A
LIMITING FACTOR ON SOME VERTICAL DEVELOPMENT ESPECIALLY IN
CLUSTERS...AS SHEAR MAY TEAR INTO THE TCU. ANY CELLS THAT CAN
OVERCOME THIS WILL BE CAPABLE OF GETTING SEVERE WITH DAMAGING WINDS
AND HAIL.

LOW PRESSURE SITUATED FROM INDIANA TO THE NC MTNS WILL BE MOVING
SLOWLY EAST TO THE PIEDMONT BY MIDNIGHT. THIS WILL KEEP THE
CONVERGENCE ZONE AS SUCH IN OUR CWA FOR A FEW HOURS...SO LOOKING AT
HIGH CHANCE POPS ESPECIALLY IN THE BLUE RIDGE AND POINTS EAST
THROUGH EARLY EVENING. HOWEVER...BETTER SUPPORT STARTS TO LIFT
NORTHEAST DURING THIS TIME...AS DRY SLOT WORKS IN FROM THE SOUTHWEST.

SHOULD SEE THINGS CLEAR AND DRY OUT LATE TONIGHT...EXCEPT EAST OF
THE BLUE RIDGE WHERE SOME LINGERING LOW LVL MOISTURE REMAINS.

SHOULD SEE SOME GOOD SUBSIDENCE BEHIND SYSTEM FRIDAY WITH MOSTLY
SUNNY SKIES BY AFTERNOON...AFTER SOME MORNING LOW CLOUDS EAST. HIGHS
WILL RANGE FROM THE LOWER 80S SOUTHSIDE VA INTO NC PIEDMONT...TO MID
TO UPPER 70S ELSEWHERE...WITH SOME 60S POSSIBLE INTO THE BLUE RIDGE
AND EAST TO BUCKINGHAM IF IT DOES NOT CLEAR OUT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 324 PM EDT THURSDAY...

THE UNSETTLED WEATHER WILL CONTINUE FOR THE END OF THE MONTH INTO
EARLY MAY. HIGH PRESSURE OVER CENTRAL CANADA WILL BUILD SOUTH DOWN
INTO THE EASTERN UNITED STATES AND WEDGE DOWN THE EASTERN SEABOARD.
THIS WILL RESULT IN COOLER WEATHER WITH SLIGHT CHANCE OF LIGHT RAIN
AND DRIZZLE TO THE AREA FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY. LOW TEMPERATURES
FRIDAY NIGHT WILL RANGE FROM THE MID 40S IN THE NORTHWEST MOUNTAINS
TO THE MID 50S IN THE PIEDMONT. THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL LIFT NORTH
ON SATURDAY AS A WARM FRONT...WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS AND A FEW
DIURNAL THUNDERSTORMS MAINLY IN THE WESTERN MOUNTAINS. HIGH
TEMPERATURES ON SATURDAY WILL VARY FROM AROUND 60 DEGREES IN THE
NORTH TO THE LOWER 70S IN THE SOUTH. ISENTROPIC LIFT OVER THE HIGH
PRESSURE WEDGE WILL BRING WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION TO THE REGION
SATURDAY NIGHT. LOW TEMPERATURES SATURDAY NIGHT WILL GENERALLY BE IN
THE LOWER 50S TO NEAR 60 DEGREES. SEVERAL WAVES OF LOW PRESSURE WILL
LIFT NORTHEAST ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY PRODUCING ROUNDS OF
SHOWERS AND EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS. HIGH TEMPERATURES SUNDAY WILL
WARM INTO THE MID 60S IN THE WEST TO THE MID 70S IN THE EAST. CLOUDS
AND SHOWERS WILL LINGER SUNDAY NIGHT AS LOW PRESSURE PUSHES OFF THE
EAST. THE GFS AND ECMWF ARE SHOWING SOME DRIER AIR IN THE MIDDLE
BETWEEN THE MAIN AREA OF RAIN AND SHOWERS ASSOCIATED WITH SHORTWAVE
IN THE WESTERN MOUNTAINS. LOW TEMPERATURES SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY
MORNING WILL DROP INTO THE LOWER 50S IN THE MOUNTAINS TO AROUND 60
DEGREES IN THE PIEDMONT.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 324 PM EDT THURSDAY...

LOW PRESSURE LOCATED OVER NORTHERN WEST VIRGINIA WITH A TRAILING
COLD FRONT IN THE MOUNTAINS MONDAY MORNING WILL TRAVEL EAST MONDAY
AFTERNOON INTO MONDAY NIGHT. THE COMBINATION OF A SHORTWAVE...WARM
MOIST AIR AND ISENTROPIC LIFT WILL KEEP A CHANCE FOR RAIN AND LOW
CLOUDS IN THE REGION MONDAY MORNING. THEN...A STRONG NORTHERN STREAM
TROUGH WILL ERODE THE WEDGE AND KICK THE RAIN EAST AND OFF SHORE
MONDAY AFTERNOON. THE EROSION OF THE WEDGE IS ALWAYS A FORECAST
CHALLENGE AND MAY BE SLOWER THAN EXPECTED ON MODELS. IF WEDGES
ERODES AS FORECASTED HIGHS ON MONDAY WILL BE WARMER THAN SUNDAY WITH
READINGS FROM NEAR 60 DEGREES IN THE NORTHWEST MOUNTAINS TO THE MID
AND UPPER 70S IN THE PIEDMONT. DRIER AIR PUSHES IN MONDAY NIGHT INTO
TUESDAY. LOW TEMPERATURES MONDAY NIGHT WILL DROP INTO THE MID 40S IN
THE MOUNTAINS TO THE LOWER 50S IN THE PIEDMONT. A WAVY FRONTAL
BOUNDARY STALL TO OUR SOUTH ON TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY NIGHT. HIGH
TEMPERATURES WILL VARY FROM THE UPPER 50S IN THE MOUNTAINS TO THE
LOWER 70S IN THE PIEDMONT. LEANED TOWARDS GFS WITH HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDING IN FROM THE NORTH TUESDAY NIGHT...AND DRIER AIR OVER THE
WET ECMWF. LOW TEMPERATURES TUESDAY NIGHT WILL DROP INTO THE MID 40S
IN THE WEST TO THE LOWER 50S IN THE EAST. HARD TO JUDGE HOW FAR
NORTH MOISTURE ADVECTED WITH A DISTURBANCE THAT MOVES ACROSS THE
SOUTHEASTERN STATES MIDWEEK INTO THURSDAY. FOLLOWED THE SUPERBLEND
WITH COOLING TREND AND ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS WEDNESDAY INTO
THURSDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /23Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 715 PM EDT THURSDAY...

LOW CLOUDS/FOG WITH WEDGE REMAIN ACROSS THE KLYH VICINITY AND
LIKELY TO PERSIST INTO THE OVERNIGHT GIVEN LOSS OF HEATING. MAY
EVEN SEE THE WEDGE SLIP BACK TOWARD THE BLUE RIDGE INCLUDING
KROA/KDAN BEFORE WINDS TURN MORE WESTERLY LATE TONIGHT AS A WEAK
COLD FRONT TO THE WEST SLIDES ACROSS. THUS EXPECTING AT LEAST IFR
TO LOW END MVFR CIGS EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY
MORNING. FOG WILL BE LIMITED BUT SHOULD STAY WITHIN MVFR LEVELS
WITH OCNL IFR POSSIBLE AROUND KLYH.

SHOULD SEE A WEAK UPPER DISTURBANCE PASS EAST OF THE REGION AFTER
MIDNIGHT BRINGING AN END TO MOST ONGOING SCATTERED CONVECTION THIS
EVENING. CONCERN THEN SHIFTS BACK TO LOW CIGS AND/OR FOG WEST OF
THE WEDGE ESPCLY WHERE HAVE SEEN RAINFALL FROM EARLIER. HOWEVER THE
LOW LEVEL FLOW WILL BECOME MORE SW TO TO NW AND THINK KBCB WILL
BE MAINLY VFR THOUGH SOME MVFR FOG POSSIBLE. KBLF SHOULD BE DRY
ENOUGH TO KEEP TO VFR CONDITIONS BUT THINK KLWB WILL SEE FOG
AND/OR LOW CLOUDS SO KEPT LOW END MVFR CIGS/VSBYS THERE FOR NOW.

WEAK HIGH PRESSURE WILL FOLLOW THE EXITING FRONT ON FRIDAY WITH
DRIER AIR MAKING FOR WIDESPREAD VFR ACROSS THE REGION INTO FRIDAY
NIGHT.

EXTENDED AVIATION DISCUSSION...

MORE WIDESPREAD SHOWERS WITH MVFR INCLUDING LOCALLY IFR
CONDITIONS RETURN SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND PERSIST INTO LATE SUNDAY
OR SUNDAY NIGHT AS LOW PRESSURE TRACKS UP THE RESIDUAL STALLED
FRONT RESULTING IN WIDESPREAD RAINFALL...AND SUB VFR CONDITIONS.

A WEAK COLD SHOULD CROSS THE REGION MONDAY BRINGING IMPROVING
FLYING CONDITIONS BY AFTERNOON AND VFR AT THIS POINT FROM MONDAY
NIGHT INTO TUESDAY.
