Area forecast discussion, Jan 29, 1:39 PM EST, 1 hour 41 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Blacksburg VA
139 PM EST Tue Jan 29 2019
.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front will bring light rain changing over to light snow
today. Arctic air and northwest winds will combine to make it
quite cold for Wednesday and Thursday. Temperatures should
moderate toward the end of this week.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
As of 130 PM EST Tuesday...
The light rain and snow continues to move eastward due to a
passing cold front. The rain/snow line has reached past the New
River Valley at this hour, and snow is now sticking to the
roads west of the Blue Ridge. The Winter Weather Advisory still
looks good for the time being, so no changes have been made.
Temperatures will continue to fall along and west of the Blue
Ridge, but the slower timing of this precipitation means that it
will take until later this evening for the Piedmont to see
light rain changing over to snow.
Following the passage of the cold front, winds should increase
from the northwest. Gusts of 25 to 35 MPH will likely occur in
the higher elevations along and west of the Blue Ridge. The
strongest winds should take place sometime during Wednesday
afternoon, but they are expected to hold just below advisory
criteria. Meanwhile, the combination of wind and an Arctic air
mass should send wind chills toward zero by Wednesday morning
along and west of the Blue Ridge, while the Piedmont could reach
the single digits. High temperatures on Wednesday were kept
below guidance due to the high confidence in cold air advection.
There is also a low threat of upslope flurries or snow showers
in parts of southeast West Virginia. Nevertheless, it will be
quite cold with gusty winds for the CWA on Wednesday.
&&
.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
As of 300 AM EST Tuesday...
The big arctic blast will arrive on Wednesday as an arctic front
moves through Appalachians and central mid Atlantic region. As would
be expected with an arctic airmass moisture will be limited. So
while there may be a quick light accumulation of snow for the higher
elevations west of the Blue Ridge as the front comes through
Wednesday morning, most locations will just see flurries with maybe
a dusting but most likely no accumulation. The most notable features
of the front will be very strong gusty winds followed intense cold
and dangerously low wind chill values.
The boundary layer looks to be well mixed with essentially a dry
adiabatic lapse rate up through almost 750mb. This will allow for
very good downward momentum transfer with the ability to tap
stronger winds through a greater depth than we normally see. Even
with the inversion higher than optimal to really squeeze the flow,
would not be surprised to see some peak winds near 60MPH even at the
lower elevations.
Hand in hand with the cold air and strong winds will be dangerously
low wind chill values. Locations west of the Blue Ridge will see
wind chills in the single digits throughout the day with the higher
elevations down to 0 to -10. Not too bad east of the Ridge with wind
chills down to the lower 20s by early Wednesday evening. As
temperatures plummet Wednesday night, wind chills west of the Blue
Ridge will range from 0 to -10 with -10 to -20 or lower at the higher
elevations, while locations east of the Ridge see wind chills generally
from -5 to +5. With headlines already out for today, believe it best
not to leapfrog events and will let later shifts evaluate potential
wind/wind chill headlines for Wednesday/Wednesday night.
Arctic high pressure will bring cold and dry conditions for Thursday
and into Thursday night. By late Thursday night and Friday a fast
moving short wave with modest dynamics and limited low level
moisture will bring a chance for some light snow or mixed rain/snow
back to the forecast mainly west of the Blue Ridge for the end of the
week. This may result in a coating of snow an inch or less generally at
the higher elevations, but western Greenbrier may be positioned to pick
up a couple of inches through Friday.
The heart of this cold snap will be Wednesday night and Thursday.
Overnight lows Wednesday night will bottom out in the single digits to
below zero west of the Blue Ridge with single digits to teens to the
east. Highs Thursday will be in the teens/mid 20s west to upper
20s/lower 30s east. Temperatures will then start to moderate for Friday
with highs in the mid/upper 30s west to upper 30s/lower 40s east.
&&
.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
As of 245 PM EST Monday...
High pressure will wedge south across the region this weekend. With
abundant sunshine and dry air, Saturday's temperatures will warm to
near normal.
A warm front is expected to move over the wedge on Sunday. At this
time, temperatures not only look to be above freezing but above
normal. Even warmer temperatures (in the 50s) are expected Monday.
That remains to be seen as rain falling into a wedge of cooler air
will likely bring about colder temperatures.
&&
.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
As of 130 PM EST Tuesday...
A cold front should usher Arctic air over the Mid Atlantic
during Tuesday evening into Wednesday. Light snow is already
falling along and west of the Blue Ridge, which is causing
MVFR/IFR ceilings and visibilities for BLF/LWB/BCB. Any light
rain over ROA/LYH/DAN should transition to light snow later this
afternoon and experience the same MVFR/IFR conditions.
After the passage of the cold front, winds should increase from
the northwest. Confidence is highest for gusts reaching or
potentially surpassing 30 KT by Wednesday afternoon. While any
lingering precipitation should dissipate by tonight, there is a
low chance of some upslope flurries or light snow showers near
LWB during Wednesday. Otherwise, VFR conditions with gusty winds
will prevail throughout the day.
Extended Aviation Discussion...
Arctic high pressure will provide VFR conditions under
diminishing winds by Thursday. A weak disturbance may approach
the mountains on Friday, which could bring a band of light rain
or snow that may temporarily trigger MVFR/IFR conditions. VFR
conditions should resume on Saturday as high pressure drifts off
the coast.
