$$What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Blacksburg, VA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Feb 6, 7:39 PM EST, 2 hours 14 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Feb 6, 7:39 PM EST, 2 hours 14 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Blacksburg VA
739 PM EST Thu Feb 6 2020
.SYNOPSIS...
A deep upper low was moving slowly eastward through the eastern
U.S. with widespread heavy rain and thunderstorms accompanying
the front. Drier and much colder air will spread into the
region Friday and over the weekend. Another weather system will
bring rain back to the area early next week along with warmer
temperatures.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
As of 200 PM Thursday...
Wedge front has held firm all day keeping the main threat of severe
weather to our south/southeast. However, the positioning of the deep
upper trough and the associated southwest flow has allowed very deep
Gulf moisture to flow unseasonably far north. As a result, flooding
has been a significant issue and areal flooding and river flooding
will continue to be an issue as the excessive water runs downstream.
We are starting to see the trough shift far enough east that the
back edge of the precipitation was nearing our western CWA border.
Additional waves are expected to track northeast through the night
allowing for additional lighter precipitation to continue overnight.
Colder air will also begin to filter into the region from the
northwest overnight, likely changing the rain showers to snow
showers in the western mountains upslope areas by daybreak. Due to
ongoing flooding and communications problems here locally, no major
changes have been made to the grids.
Likely to categorical pops tracking east during the evening tapering
off to just chance pops in the mountains with chance pops for
rain/snow showers in the west on Friday.
Medium to high confidence in the forecast through the near term.
&&
.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 100 PM EST THURSDAY...
LIGHT UPSLOPE SNOW SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING AS
UPSLOPE FLOW CONTINUES. THESE SNOW SHOWERS SHOULD BEGIN TO WEAKEN
AND DISSIPATE THROUGH THE DAY SATURDAY. GIVING WAY TO ONLY SOME
MOUNTAINS FLURRIES. BY SATURDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING, WEAK PASSING
SHORTWAVE DROPPING OUT OF THE MIDWEST WILL ROUND THE BASE OF THE
LONGWAVE TROUGH OVER THE EAST. WITH A NEUTRAL/SLIGHTLY NEGATIVE
TILT, WILL BE JUST ENOUGH LIFT WITH THIS PASSING FEATURE TO PRODUCE
SOME LIGHT PRECIPITATION. RIGHT NOW LOOKING TO BE A RAIN/SNOW MIX
FOR THE HIGHEST ELEVATIONS, BUT MAINLY RAIN WITH ONLY SOME WET
FLAKES POSSIBLY MIXING IN FOR THE LOWER ELEVATIONS. ONLY LIGHT SNOW
ACCUMULATIONS EXPECTED, AROUND AN INCH OR LESS, MAINLY EXPECTED AT
THE HIGHEST ELEVATION. GUIDANCE IS INDICATING THAT MOST OF THIS
PRECIP WILL BE CONFINED ALONG AND WEST OF THE BLUE RIDGE, WITH ONLY
MAYBE A PASSING SHOWER/DRIZZLE TO THE EAST. TEMPS DROP RATHER
QUICKLY INTO THE MID 20S TO UPPER 30S SATURDAY NIGHT UNDER GRADUALLY
CLEARING SKIES AND LIGHT/CALM WINDS. SO ANY WET AND UNTREATED
ROADWAYS MAY REFREEZE, CAUSING SLICK SPOTS OVERNIGHT SATURDAY AND
EARLY SUNDAY MORNING. SUNDAY APPEARING TO BE DRY AND MOSTLY SUNNY
AS WEAK HIGH PRESSURE BRIEFLY BUILDS IN OVER THE REGION IN ADVANCE
OF THE NEXT STORM SYSTEM EARLY NEXT WEEK. THIS WILL ALLOW FOR HIGHS
SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL ON SUNDAY IN THE UPPERS 40S TO MID 50S. LOWS
IN THE UPPERS 20S, MID 30S.
&&
.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 100 PM EST THURSDAY...
ELONGATED TROUGH OVER THE UPPER MIDWEST WILL ONCE AGAIN TURN FLOW
WESTERLY/SOUTHWESTERLY LEADING INTO THE FIRST PART OF NEXT WEEK.
THIS WILL TAP INTO MORE GULF MOISTURE AND WILL STREAM NORTH ALONG A
WEAK COLD FRONTAL BOUNDARY TO OUR WEST. THIS WILL KEEP CLOUDS AND
RAIN IN THE FORECAST UNTIL AT LEAST WEDNESDAY. AFTER THAT, MODELS
BEGIN TO DIVERGE ON SOLUTIONS, BUT STILL SHOWING AN ACTIVE PATTERN.
SO WILL MAINTAIN SOME CHANCE OF RAIN THROUGH THE ENTIRE PERIOD.
TEMPERATURES LIKELY ABOVE NORMAL THE ENTIRE PERIOD AS WELL THANKS TO
THE SOUTHERLY FLOW.
&&
.AVIATION /00Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
As of 705 PM EST Thursday...
Ahead of a cold front widespread MVFR to IFR ceilings and MVFR
visibilities in moderate to heavy rain extended from central
North Carolina into eastern Pennsylvania. There was a narrow
strip of VFR conditions behind this rain then ceilings drop back
to IFR/LIFR behind the front on the west slopes of the central
Appalachians.
As the front moves east through the region, rain will end and
ceilings will lift east of the Blue Ridge. Much of the foothills
and piedmont of Virginia and North Carolina will be VFR by min-
morning Friday. Ceilings will remain low in the mountains and
precipitation will change to snow showers.
Winds will be gusty behind the front from the west. Wind gusts
will be 15 to 25mph overnight then increase to the 25 to 40 knot
range during the day Friday.
Extended Aviation Discussion...
Snow flurries are expected Friday night. Clouds will clear out
and VFR conditions are expected on Saturday. Scattered rain and
snow showers with sub- VFR conditions are possible Sunday night
through Tuesday.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
As of 710 PM EST Thursday...
Two to six inches of rain have fallen across parts of southwest
Virginia, northwest North Carolina and southeast West Virginia,
leaving saturated soils and leading to efficient runoff of
rainfall into streams, creeks, main stem rivers and their
tributaries.
River Flood Warnings are in effect along the Dan River from
Wentworth to South Boston, the Yadkin River at Elkin, and on
the North Fork of the Holston River at Saltville.
It is worth noting that all of the flood stages on the Dan River
were raised several feet in 2019. At Danville for example, the
current forecast crest near 26 feet would have been just below
Major flood stage and around the 4th highest on record (only
since 1996 however) and just above the April 2017 flood event.
So a lot of water will be moving through the system.
At the Clinch River at Richlands and along Bluestone River,
additional rainfall amounts will be less than one inch, but
these rivers will remain close to current levels overnight.
Additional River Flood Warnings may be issued this evening or
early Friday as the observed amounts of rainfall are integrated
in the the river forecast models.
A Flood Watch remains in effect for the entire Hydrologic
Service Area and that covers both main stem river flooding and
the areal flooding that covers tributaries and other small
stream flooding.
