Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Blacksburg VA
747 AM EDT Thu Oct 31 2019

.SYNOPSIS...
A warm front will head north through North Carolina and Virginia
today. An intense cold front moves across our area this
afternoon and evening followed by colder high pressure for the
weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
As of 315 AM EDT Thursday...

Deepening closed upper low will cross into the Great Lakes today and
tonight and will push an intense cold front across the Mid Atlantic
region this afternoon and evening. Models were similar with the
timing and synoptic features of this system. Southwest Virginia,
southeast West Virginia and northwest North Carolina will start the
day in the warm sector. Forcing is strong with the right rear
quadrant of the 140 knot upper jet aiding in lift.

Abundant moisture streaming north out of the Gulf of Mexico has
precipitable water values well above normal. Storm motion and the
speed of the front will limit flooding potential but rates withing
the line of thunderstorms along the front will be heavy. Will
mention the threat in the Hazardous Weather Outlook, especially
since leaves will be blown down and may clog urban drainage systems.
Deeper moisture exits the east by midnight with clearing east of the
Blue Ridge overnight but low level upslope clouds will remain over
the mountains through Friday morning.

Enhanced threat of severe thunderstorms unchanged in the latest Day
One Storm Prediction Center outlook. CAPES up to 1200 J/Kg this
afternoon along with impressive shear and helicity values in the 300-
600 range support the primary threat of damaging wind.

850mb temperatures drop 15 deg. C in 12 hours with this front. The
strong cold air advection will combine with large pressure rises, in
the range of 10 to 15 mb/6hrs, to produce very gusty wind. Will be
issuing wind advisory for the foothills and to the west and a high
wind watch from Roanoke north into the Greenbrier Valley and the
Alleghany Highlands. The greatest threat of damaging winds will be
immediately behind the front through about 09Z/5AM but the longer
expiration is a buffer for what the next round of guidance suggests.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
As of 300 AM EDT Thursday...

Windy conditions will begin to relax on Friday as high pressure starts
to build in behind the strong cold front. Lingering upslope clouds and
any showers/flurries west of the Blue Ridge will dissipate during the
morning with a good deal of sunshine for the afternoon. However, the
strong surge of cold air behind the cold front will make for notably
colder conditions with temperatures running well below normal as we
start November. Quite chilly Friday night with frost/freeze conditions
possible east of the Blue Ridge.

Temperatures will rebound a bit on Saturday ahead of another cold front
rapidly approaching from the northwest. Moisture is limited with the
front so not much to speak of in terms of precipitation or clouds, but
expect winds to become a bit blustery again followed by a good surge of
upslope clouds for the evening and through Saturday night. Another
chilly night with frost/freeze conditions possible east of the Blue
Ridge.

Sunday will see a return to high pressure and a good amount of sun with
any lingering clouds west of the Ridge dissipating during the morning.
However, the surge of cold air behind the most recent cold front will
again take a toll and keep high temperatures on Sunday well below
normal. And if the growing season is still active east of the Ridge,
Sunday night will offer another good chance for a frost/freeze.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
As of 315 PM EDT Wednesday...

A ridge of high pressure will set up over the Mid Atlantic and should
keep dry conditions overt the region through Monday night as it exits
offshore.

Afterward, forecast confidence decreases considerably as the ECMWF
and the GFS differ on the timing and initialization of a new area of
low pressure developing somewhere near the Southeast coast. Rain
chances seem to generally creep up slowly during Tuesday and
Wednesday although rainfall amounts do not appear impressive.
However, the overall discrepancies of the synoptic picture in the
models make it difficult to give more than just low chance PoPs at
this time.

&&

.AVIATION /12Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
As of 740 AM EDT Thursday...

Southerly flow increases ahead of a cold front this morning. Low
level wind shear expected at most sites early then as mixing
begins wind gusts will be 15 to 25 knots.

A quasi-linear convective system is expected to move east and
across the mountains this afternoon. This line of deep
convection is expected to cross the area from west to east
between 16Z/noon and 02Z/10PM. Embedded thunderstorms within
this line of showers may contain damaging wind gusts (50 kts).
Timing on the high resolution models showed good consensus.

Behind the front winds turn to the west-northwest with gusts
increasing to 25 to 40 knots. Higher elevations, especially
north of KROA have the potential for even stronger winds.

Once the front goes through and the deeper moisture exits the
region, clouds will clear east of the Blue Ridge. A layer of
low level moisture will remain over the mountains with MVFR to
IFR ceilings on the western slopes of the central Appalachians
through Friday morning.

Above average confidence on the timing of the front and the
improvement to VFR this afternoon.
Average confidence on ceiling improvement this morning ahead of
the front once mixing begins.

.Extended Aviation Discussion...

The wind is expected to diminish by Friday evening with a
return to VFR. High pressure is expected to provide VFR weather
through the weekend. A secondary, dry front, will cross the
area Saturday night. The biggest by-product from this feature
will be enhanced winds across the ridges and some low MVFR
cloudiness in the WV mountains Saturday night into Sunday
morning.
