What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this flood watch went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Charleston, WV wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flood watch went out at Feb 9, 1:13 AM EST, 1 hour 43 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Feb 9, 1:13 AM EST, 1 hour 43 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Charleston WV 113 AM EST Fri Feb 9 2018 .SYNOPSIS... A warm southwest flow takes hold Friday, as high pressure exits. A wet system with multiple waves brings a soaking rain this weekend, and may keep the weather unsettled into early next week. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/... As of 110 AM Friday... Forecast on track. As of 1010 PM Thursday... Latest satellite imagery and surface observations indicate mid and high level clouds were streaming across the area. there are also some lower clouds across northern portions of West Virginia. Current thinking is that the mid and high level clouds should continue to thicken overnight. Temperatures are generally on track. However, temperatures were warmer than forecast in areas where lower clouds were present. Based on current conditions and latest temp guidance, have made some tweaks to overnight temperatures with more changes made to regions where the lower clouds are located. Otherwise, only some minor tweaks made. As of 130 PM Thursday... A warm front will produce considerable mid to high clouds across the region tonight, making low temperatures a bit tricky. Southerly winds will also pick up tonight in the western counties. The warm frontal clouds will persist on Friday over central and northern portions of the forecast area. Dry air in the low levels should help prevent precipitation from reaching the ground, but can't rule out a few flakes making it to the ground across the northern counties. && .SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/... As of 330 PM Thursday... Strong, warm, southerly flow continues Friday night across the area and a frontal zone stretches up the entirety of the Ohio River Valley Friday night with continued cloud cover. Long- range models, and now shorter range models as they become available, continue to paint a very wet picture for the area this weekend. A deep, strong southern stream jet will transport moist air from the Gulf into the area Friday night, saturating the column overhead here by mid-Saturday. Models agree at this time that precipitation will start to fall in SE Virginia and the Tug Fork/Big Sandy basins by mid- morning Saturday. The aforementioned frontal zone stalls across the Ohio Valley and Central Appalachia through much of the weekend. The southern jet responsible for upwards of 1.25" PWAT will come into phase with a strong 150+ kt northern jet - offering dynamic, divergent support aloft for the formation of multiple waves along the frontal zone. The imposed circulations would in turn ramp up FGEN forcing in the low- to mid-levels, which is reflected well at this time in model output. Overall, Saturday night looks to be the most promising for moderate and occasionally heavy rain with a bullseye of equivalent potential temperature convergence evident, and moving generally from SW to NE through the SE half of this CWA. Plan on highlighting this rain threat in the HWO given model consistency, a recent soaking rain, and snow pack in the mountains. Will leave any sort of watch issuance to the next forecast issuance when more short-range models come into play. High pressure and ridging builds to our West by mid-Sunday and pushes the frontal boundary East of the mountains through Sunday night, though the 850 front passage may give the region one last round of rain Sunday night. && .LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/... As of 350 PM Thursday... High pressure builds and shifts across the North Monday into Tuesday, drying us out at some point at least temporarily. Though, models continue to indicate an active southern jet transporting moist, unstable air into the area for over-running type precipitation once more Monday night into Tuesday. Given differences in timing, strength, etc - have chosen to keep PoPs on the high side through Monday and Tuesday. Generally, the long term remains active with decent PoP during most periods given timing differences among models for the numerous waves advecting through otherwise zonal flow aloft. Have chosen to go with a general long- range model blend Tuesday onward. && .AVIATION /06Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... As of 110 AM Friday... MVFR mist remains possible EKN and CKB, until high clouds increase and thicken overnight. Otherwise VFR weather this period, as high pressure yields to a light southerly surface flow at the surface, and a moderate southwest flow aloft. FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 06Z SATURDAY... FORECAST CONFIDENCE: High. ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: MVFR mist could occur in the valleys in and near the northern WV mountains through 08Z or 09Z overnight.
