Area forecast discussion, Jul 22, 4:04 PM EDT, 26 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Charleston WV
404 PM EDT Sat Jul 22 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
Strong to severe thunderstorms are possible this weekend with
risk for heavy rainfall and potential flooding. Fronts cross
late Sunday and again late Monday. High pressure midweek.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY/...
As of 354 PM Saturday...

A severe thunderstorm watch has been issued for parts of
southeast OH and portions of the northern half of WV until 10
PM.

As of 155 PM Saturday...

MCS moved across northern zones this morning, producing
generally an inch or so of precipitation. Area in the warm
sector of a low pressure system moving across Great Lakes
region, with sct showers and thunderstorms popping up area wide
in the warm, humid, unstable conditions. With the lower
FFG/wetter soils across the north, and the potential for
additional MCS overnight, went ahead an hoisted a flash flood
watch for the area through Sunday morning. This may need to be
expanded in area or even in time as we progress, but for now,
just decided to issue for the wetter areas/greatest threat
region.

In addition to flooding issues, the potential for severe exists
through much of the night, with strong shear on the order of 40+
kts. SPC has issued a slight risk for most of the CWA through
12Z Sunday, with a slight risk area wide on Sunday for an
additional severe thunderstorm threat, as the cold front
approaches the area from the north. Frontal boundary should be
entering SE Ohio zones towards the end of the period.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
As of 315 PM Saturday...

Models in good agreement in a significant short wave amplifying
the northern stream over the eastern U.S., which finally drives
the very deep and moist unstable air with the cold front
eastward across most the area Sunday night. Even though the
front gets hung up in the mountains by Monday morning, the
really deep moisture and convection should continue eastward
with the main departing short wave. By Monday morning, we expect
most of the area to be dry, except across the far southern coal
fields and southern mountains where some lingering convection
may continue.

Thereafter, models have another short wave and cold front
dropping southeast through the Great Lakes and across the area
Monday afternoon and night. Even though moisture will be more
limited with this feature, there will be enough moisture to
combine with diurnal heating to fire up a band of convection
with the front. Things will finally die down Monday night, with
most areas dry by Tuesday morning. However, again, this new
front will struggle to exit the far south and have left a few
showers possible there Monday night into Tuesday morning.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
As of 340 PM Saturday...

High pressure builds in briefly Tuesday and Tuesday night with
slightly cooler but drier air.

However, models agree in another short wave and front diving
southeast across the area Wednesday and Wednesday night, with
enough dynamics, moisture and instability to fire yet another
band of convection ahead of the front. But it will be a bit
cooler and less on the summer heat and humidity. But despite
this latest short wave and front, the models quickly lift out
the upper trough and return the front northward Thursday, which
meanders across the area for the later part of the work week.
Again, lots of moisture will be available to keep things very
unsettled with the meandering front, although temperatures are
progged to be tempered by the clouds and precip.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
18Z Saturday through 18Z Sunday...

As of 200 PM Saturday...

Showers and thunderstorms, with heavy downpours, and strong
damaging winds are possible during the TAF period. Expect MVFR
and IFR conditions in vicinity of storms, along with strong
gusty winds. Bulk of convection will generally decrease in
coverage from north to south after 12-15Z, but local MVFR and
IFR cigs will linger. Additional rounds of showers and
thunderstorms towards the end of the period.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 18Z SUNDAY...

FORECAST CONFIDENCE: Medium.

ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: Convection could be less widespread than
currently forecast. Conditions on Sunday may not improve as
quickly as currently forecast.
