AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Wakefield VA
355 PM EDT Sun Aug 22 2021

.SYNOPSIS...
An upper level trough lingers over the Mid-Atlantic tonight and
then lifts to the northeast Monday as weak high pressure builds
in from the northwest. An upper level ridge gradually builds
across the are through midweek.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
As of 355 PM EDT Sunday...

GOES WV channels depict an upper low over the Mid- Atlantic
region this afternoon, with TS Henri moving inland over Southern
New England. Rather steep mid-level lapse rates are present
within the upper low, MLCAPE values average 1500-2000 J/kg, and
abundant moisture is wrapping around the upper low (including
moisture from Henri) and this is resulting in some quite strong
updrafts this afternoon. Additionally minimal storm motion is
leading to some locally heavy rain. Large hail, localized flash
flooding, and some locally stronger wind gusts will remain
possible through early evening, particularly for central,
southern, southeast VA, and the VA Eastern Shore.

The upper low will be slow to move off the coast this evening.
Therefore, 20-30% will linger until late evening, and then
gradually taper off later tonight. Some clouds will linger
tonight, and then begin to scatter out across the Piedmont later
tonight, where some patchy fog is possible toward sunrise.
Forecast lows range from the upper 60s to low 70s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
As of 355 PM EDT Sunday...

The upper trough begins to fill and lift to the northeast
Monday as an upper ridge builds into the Ohio Valley. Mostly
sunny Monday with high temperatures in the upper 80s to low 90s,
with a ~20% chc of afternoon showers/tstms across interior NE
NC. The upper ridge spreads across the area Monday night through
Wednesday. Lows Monday night range from the low to mid 70s,
then hot and humid Tuesday with highs in the low to locally mid
90s, and heat indices in the upper 90s to around 100F. Once,
again only ~20% PoPs for showers/tstms over interior NE NC. Warm
and humid Wednesday night with lows ranging from 70-75F. Mostly
sunny, hot, and humid Wednesday with highs in the low/mid 90s
with heat indices around 100F.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
As of 355 PM EDT Sunday...

A mid/upper level ridge remains over the Mid-Atlantic through
the later this week into next weekend, with surface high
pressure centered off the Mid-Atlantic coast. High pressure is
expected to move W by late week into the weekend, centering over
the SE this weekend. Mainly dry conditions are expected
Wednesday/Thursday with the area under the ridge. Moisture
potentially slides in on the southern periphery of the ridge
Friday through Sunday with low chc PoPs mainly in the western
Piedmont.

Lows generally range from the upper 60s west to low to mid 70s east.
Highs range from the lower 90s to locally mid 90s Thursday and
Friday, and upper 80s to around 90F Saturday and Sunday.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
As of 155 PM EDT Sunday...

Scattered showers/tstms are developing this afternoon as an
upper level trough slowly pivots across the region. Mainly VFR
conditions are expected outside of showers/tstms, with brief
IFR/LIFR vsby possible in heavy rain and MVFR cigs if a
shower/tstm directly impacts a terminal. Showers/tstms are
expected to largely dissipate by 02z, with passing mid clouds
overnight as the upper level trough axis swings across the area.
Patchy fog with MVFR vsby is possible near RIC if clouds
scatter early enough. Mostly sunny Monday with some SCT
afternoon CU and a light SW wind.

Mainly dry and VFR conditions area expected Tuesday through
Friday as an upper level ridge builds across the region.

&&

.MARINE...
As of 355 PM EDT Sunday...

Afternoon weather analysis places TC Henri just inland on the
CT/RI coast with a surface trough extending SW across the local
area. High pressure is anchored across the central Gulf Coast
supported by a building upper ridge across Texas. Winds are
highly variable across the waters with ongoing widespread
thunderstorms forming as an upper trough axis crosses the area.
Waves are 1-2 ft with seas 2-4 ft.

Generally quiet marine weather is expected to dominate the
forecast period with S and SW winds. A lingering surface trough
will stall over the area which may allow winds to briefly turn
westerly on the Bay Monday night. Sub-SCA winds/waves/seas are
likely to persist through the end of the work week. Seas 2-3 ft
through Friday may build to 3-4 ft by the weekend.

Diminishing swell offshore will result in a decreasing rip
current threat with Moderate Risk for the northern beaches and
Low Risk for the southern beaches on Monday. Low rip current
risk at all area beaches is expected on Tuesday.
