AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Wakefield VA
717 PM EDT Fri Oct 29 2021
.SYNOPSIS...
Low pressure tracks away from the area and into New England by
Saturday night. High pressure builds back into the area early
next week.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/...
As of 330 PM EDT Friday...
Latest analysis shows a closed upper low spinning over ern TN. The
primary sfc low remains just west of the central Appalachians,
with a secondary triple point low along a WNW-ESE oriented
occluded front INVOF north-central VA. There are still
widespread moderate to occasionally heavy showers across the
Lower MD Ern Shore (along with gusty E winds to 30-45 mph)
ahead of the front. Will maintain Wind Advisories for coastal
Worcester County, MD (including Ocean City) through 23z/7 PM
this evening. All other Wind Advisories will be
cancelled/expired by 4 PM. Elsewhere winds are generally S-SW
with scattered heavy showers (mainly E of I-95/N of I-64) and
isolated rumbles of thunder. The low- level speed/directional
shear has diminished considerably, so there is little to no
severe threat through the remainder of the aftn and evening. The
more widespread/steady pcpn will exit to our NE this evening as
the occluded front moves to our north/northeast. Will continue
to see scattered showers w/ isolated thunder through early
evening before drying occurs tonight. However, cannot completely
rule out an isolated shower or two through the night.
Cooler/drier air arrives from the SSW tonight, with lows
dropping into the upper 40s-mid 50s.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY/...
As of 330 PM EDT Friday...
The closed upper low slowly tracks just to the north of the local
area Sat-Sat night then into/through New England Sun. A secondary
sfc low is progged to develop off the Mid-Atlantic coast by late Sat
before quickly deepening as it tracks northward toward and then
across New England from Sat night-Sun. Expect partly cloudy and dry
wx to start the day on Sat before skies become mostly cloudy by
aftn/early evening with isolated to scattered showers developing
with the upper low (and associated cold pool aloft) nearby. Highest
PoPs (30-40%) are over the NW with at least slight chc PoPs
elsewhere. Highs Sat in the low-mid 60s inland/upper 60s at the
coast. Pcpn should diminish by mid-late Sat evening with skies
becoming partly cloudy Sat night. Lows Sat night in the upper
40s-low 50s.
Deep layered WNW flow will lead to drying on Sun as the upper low
pulls away. Skies become mostly sunny by late in the day. Highs
mainly in the upper 60s-around 70F. Sfc high pressure begins to
build into the area from the WNW from Sun night-Mon as the flow
aloft flattens out. Slightly cooler on Mon w/ highs in the mid-upper

Going closer to the 12Z ECMWF model for the extended period. The

high pressure builds in from the WNW in the generally zonal
flow aloft. Sfc low pressure will then track from the srn Plains
ENE and off the Mid Atlc coast Wed night through Fri. This will
result in the chance for overrunning showers/rain during this
period. Highs will be in the upper 50s to upper 60s Tue, in the
lower 50s to lower 60s Wed and Thu, and in the mid 50s to lower
60s Fri. Lows will be in the lower 40s to lower 50s Mon night,
in the upper 30s to near 50 Tue night, in the upper 30s to upper
40s Wed night, and in the mid 30s to mid 40s Thu night.

of the Bay. With drier air moving in from the SW this evening,
an increase in SW winds is expected, and some higher gusts
approaching 30-35kt will be possible for a few hrs this

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
As of 420 PM EDT Friday...
Tidal departures currently avg 2.5 to 3.5 ft over much of the
area (locally even approaching 4 ft). Coastal Flood Warnings
remain for zones across portions of the Bay from Windmill Pt N
and for all of the eastern shore along the Bay through Sat. In
some areas over the bayside of the MD eastern shore the water
levels are forecast to be the highest since Isabel in 2003. In
general, the Atlantic side of the eastern shore will see peak
water levels in high end minor to low end moderate flood
thresholds, but significant beach/dune erosion is expected given
nearshore waves of 8-11 ft. A high surf advisory continues for
all coastal zones into this evening (and lingering through 1 am
Sat for zones from Cape Charles N.

expectation that the next high tides fall below minor flood
thresholds.
Lingering flood concerns expected through Sat over much of
mid/upper Bay as water levels may be slow to drop off but these
levels have been lowered a bit compared to the previous
forecasts.
