Area forecast discussion, May 17, 9:59 PM EDT, 27 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wakefield VA
959 PM EDT Thu May 17 2018
.SYNOPSIS...
A frontal boundary stalls across northern portions of the
forecast area through Friday, bringing periodic showers and
thunderstorms, with the likelihood for heavy rainfall. Somewhat
drier air arrives during the weekend as the upper level low
pressure system weakens.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
As of 1000 PM EDT Thursday...
Flood Watch in effect through Friday evening for much of the
area...
Flood advisories have been allowed to expire for locations
north of the RIC metro, from Louisa/Fluvanna County east to
Caroline County and the Northern Neck late this evening. The
steadiest rain on the radar currently is over/just east of RIC
but not to the degree it was earlier this evening. Elsewhere,
rain is relatively light and sporadic which is good news given
the soggy conditions as of late. Have aligned PoPs through 2am
to show best chances (~80-100%) across our northern/western
counties, tapering to chc PoPs (~50%) across interior NE NC,
where the radar is quieter.
Hi-res guidance, including the HRRR, show the next round of
moderate/heavy rain ramping up to the south and lifting north
through the FA early Fri morning. The synoptic setup is one for
heavy/excessive rainfall through tonight (and Fri). Deep
layered southerly flow will continue transporting highly
anomalous moist over the local area (with a nearly stationary
sfc boundary draped across far nrn tier of the FA). Best
forcing/UVM overnight is expected to be across central/wrn and
nrn locations of the FA. Flood Watch will remain in effect for
average rainfall of a few inches possible in numerous SHRAS and
ISOLD-SCT tstms. Threat will continue for localized flash
flooding in heavier bands of SHRAS/tstms that do develop. Kept
areas of FG near/over coastal areas along the MD ern shore. Lows
tonight from around 60F on the lower MD ern shore to 65-70F
elsewhere.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH SUNDAY/...
As of 315 PM EDT Thursday...
The pattern featuring a trough over the Mid-South and a stalled
frontal boundary over the Mid-Atlantic will continue into Fri
night. A deep feed of subtropical/tropical moisture will
persist on the ern side of the trough (PW generally +2 to
occasionally +3 st dev) bringing periodic showers/tstms. 12Z/17Z
models are targeting a window of another surge of concentrated
+RA possible over central portions of the FA during Fri. Will
have Flood Watch continue through midnight Fri night for
now...though axis of highest/deepest moist and potential +RA may
shift to ESE portions of VA and NE NC Fri eve/night. Highs Fri
from the l-m60s on the lower MD ern shore to the 70s elsewhere.
Most if not all of the FA is expected to get back into the warm
sector Sat as axis of deepest moist shifts to the
coast/offshore. So...highs Sat will genly be in the u70s-l80s
(l-m70s on most of the eastern shore). Some potential for
stronger tstms exists by Sat aftn/evening though much
uncertainty remains.
Storm total QPF through Sat night ranges from 2.00"-2.50" SE to
3.00"-5.00" NW. Due to the convective nature of this event,
there will likely be localized areas of higher amounts, but also
some areas that receive less.
Sun will be warm and moderately humid w/ VRB clouds/partly sunny
conditions. Will have PoPs 20-40% (highest over far SE VA-
coastal NE NC)...primarily for afternoon/eve SHRAS/tstms. Highs
from the u70s-l80s on the ern shore to the m80s inland.
&&
.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
As of 100 PM EDT Thursday...
Unsettled wx expected to continue early in the extended forecast
period then a trend toward drying/improving wx now highlighted mid
week. A gradual break down of the moist SSW flow expected as westerlies
aloft strengthen and finally push a (and more significant) cold
front through the region (Wed). Keeping PoPs above climo Sun
night through Tue (mainly 30-50%) for SHRAS...mainly diurnally
driven tstms. Lowering PoPs to aob 15-30% Wed-Thu.
Highs each day mainly in the 80s...w/ lows in the 60s-70F.
&&
.AVIATION /02Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
As of 800 PM EDT Thursday...
An area of steady rain has moved north of all terminals except
for SBY as of 8 PM Thursday, while a few showers have re-
developed from RIC southward. Isolated-scattered showers will
continue to impact the terminals through the overnight hours
with brief light to moderate rain. A brief period or two of IFR
visbilities cannot be ruled out overnight. However,
visibilities will likely remain VFR/MVFR for all terminals
(except SBY) through Friday morning. Ceilings have quickly
dropped to ~500 feet in/around SBY, as winds have turned to the
NE north of the frontal boundary. Expect IFR/LIFR ceilings at
SBY through the entire TAF period, with a period of IFR
visibilities possible after 06z tonight due to fog. Elsewhere,
expect MVFR/IFR ceilings after 03z tonight, with IFR most likely
at RIC/PHF.
The frontal boundary will slowly sag southward tonight and will
likely stall just north of RIC on Friday as moisture continues to
stream into the area from the S. Thus, periodic showers/tstms will
likely continue, which could bring MVFR/IFR visibilities in heavy
rain on Friday, especially during the afternoon/evening hours.
OUTLOOK... The boundary will gradually lift N by Saturday, but
shower/tstm chances will continue. Somewhat drier conditions
potentially arrive by Sunday. Patchy early morning MVFR/IFR stratus
will be possible on both Saturday and Sunday. Rain chances
continue through early next week, as afternoon/evening
showers/tstms are possible on Monday and Tuesday.
&&
.MARINE...
As of 1000 PM EDT Thursday...
A frontal boundary will remain stalled across the northern
portions of the marine area overnight and even into Friday.
This will result in winds remaining E or NE 10-15 kt or less off
the MD coast and over the upper Bay. SE winds will persist over
the middle to lower Bay and the remainder of the coastal waters
through Fri night. Seas generally 2-4 ft; waves 1-2 ft. A brief
uptick in wind speeds to around 20 kt is possible north of
Chincoteague Friday aftn/eve. Wave guidance is also showing the
potential for seas to reach 5 ft out past 10 nm north of
Parramore Island Friday night. SCA looks marginal at best so
will defer to next shift to asses whether a headline will be
needed. The pressure gradient tightens on Sat resulting in an
increasing southerly flow to 15 to 20 kt especially over the
coastal waters. SCA conditions will be marginal for the Bay
Sat/Sat night and an SCA may be needed. Potential exists again
for seas to build to 5 ft out around 10-20 nm on the coastal
waters. Flow becomes a little more SW Sun as a front drops down
across northern VA and stalls. Bermuda high pres well offshore
will keep winds SW around 15 kt through Tue with some higher
gusts possible. Models suggest an area of low pressure may pass
across New England Tue into Wed which could increase winds a
little more with SCA possible for a time Tue and Wed.
