.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
As of 350 PM EDT Monday...
Tropical Storm Claudette has moved offshore the VA/NC coastline.
Meanwhile, a ~989 mb low is over southern Quebec with a fairly
strong early summer cold front extending SW into the Midwest. Temps
this afternoon are generally in the upper 80s to low 90s near the
coast and low 90s elsewhere. Dewpoints are generally in the low 70s
with a few upper 60s NW with heat indices in the upper 90s to low
100s. There is a 15 to 35% chance of a shower/storm in the piedmont
from very late this afternoon through much of the evening (mainly
after 6 PM). Cannot rule out localized strong to damaging wind gusts
with any storm that does form given the strong surface heating and
drying mid levels (SPC has maintained a Marginal Risk for roughly
the NW two- thirds of the area). However, widespread severe wx is
not expected late this aftn/this evening. Any lingering convection
wanes after 10 PM-midnight and the aforementioned (relatively
strong) cold front is progged to move into NW portion of the FA by
early Tues morning. Cloud cover will increase from west to east
overnight. Expect lows tonight in the low 70s NW to the mid 70s SE.
The SW to NE oriented cold front will likely reach central VA around
7-9 AM Tues before gradually moving SE through the day. Recent CAMs
suggest the front will move through faster than originally expected
and therefore most of the rain should be through by Tues evening for
much of the FA except SE VA/NE NC where it may linger into the early
overnight hours. Heavy rain is expected ahead of and along the front
Tues morning into Tues afternoon where any thunderstorms will be
located. CAPE of 500-1500 J/kg and bulk shear of 40-55 kt will allow
for the potential for locally strong to severe wind gusts with the
front end of the line. SPC has most of the FA in a marginal risk of
severe winds except the far NW. Given the favorable dynamics and
unseasonably strong dynamics for June, strong to locally severe
winds will be possible as early as late morning. However, the
greatest severe chance will be south and east of RIC in the
afternoon where instability will be highest.
Although the heaviest rain will occur ahead of an along the front,
post frontal stratiform rain will be likely through much of the day
for the entire FA. Given the slow moving nature of the front and
plentiful moisture (PWATs of 2.0-2.2" SE of RIC), heavy rain will be
the primary threat. The HREF shows a 70% chance of 1"/hr rainfall
rates for most of the FA. Therefore, expect 0.5-0.75" of rain NW of
RIC with 1.0-1.5" of rain SE of RIC through the day (with locally
heavier rainfall of >2" possible). Will need to monitor for training
storms Tues as localized flash flooding will be possible (most
likely in SE VA/NE NC where rainfall from Tropical Storm Claudette
was seen). However, current FFG is generally 2-3" in 1 hr except for
in urban areas. Therefore, will refrain from issuing a Flash Flood
Watch due to low confidence in a large area reaching/exceeding FFG.
Highs Tues will range from the mid 70s NW to the mid 80s SE. Temps
will crash Tues behind the cold front into the upper 60s to around
70F with most high temps being realized early in the day before the
FROPA.

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
As of 350 PM EDT Monday...
The cold front pushes offshore Tues night with PoPs ending from NW
to SE early Tues night. Dry Wed and most of Thurs except for a few
isolated showers/storms in far SE VA/NE NC Thurs afternoon and
evening (20-30% PoPs). Lows Tues night in the mid 50s NW and low to
mid 60s SE. Highs Wed will be cooler in the mid to upper 70s,
warming to the low 80s Thurs. Lows Wed night in the low 50s NW and
low 60s SE.
&&
.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
As of 400 PM EDT Monday...
A frontal boundary will linger along or just off the coast Thu
night into Fri, then dissipates by late Fri. Sfc high pressure
will then be centered well off the nrn Mid Atlc coast for late
Fri through Mon, resulting in very warm and humid conditions
across the region. Slight to sml chance PoPs will be around over
extrm ern/sern areas for Thu night into Fri morning, then
chances for mainly diurnal showers and tstms for Fri aftn
through Mon aftn, due to a very warm/moist airmass in place.
Lows Thu night will range from the upper 50s well inland, to the
mid to upper 60s near the coast. Highs on Fri in the lower to
mid 80s. Highs will be generally in the mid to upper 80s Sat,
Sun and Mon. Lows in the mid 60s to lower 70s.

.AVIATION /20Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
As of 155 PM EDT Monday...
TS Claudette, along with it's outer cloud deck, has moved
offshore the VA/NC coastline and will continue to move NE out to
sea. Therefore, primarily VFR conditions expected through
tonight with FEW/SCT CU. SBY is still experiencing SCT to OVC
2000 ft CIGs due to a closer proximity to Claudette, but CIGs
are expected to rise over the next hour or so to VFR. There is a
slight chance for a shower/storm in central VA late this
afternoon/early this evening (~00z-04z Tues) which may impact
RIC, but confidence is too low to include in the taf at this
time. A strong cold front approaches the region Tues morning
before slowing as it moves SE through the day. Showers and
storms are expected ahead of the front with lingering light rain
behind it through most of the day. Expect CIGs to drop to MVFR
with the precip Tues morning with the potential for IFR CIGs in
the more stable post frontal rain Tues afternoon, particularly
for RIC. Areas of reduced VIS are expected with any convection.
Winds are generally SW around 10 kt (still S at SBY for the next
few hours), will decrease to 5-10 kt tonight, and will increase
to 10-15 kt with gusts 20-25 kt at PHF/ORF/ECG Tues morning
ahead of the cold front. Winds will become NW/N ~10 kt behind
the cold front Tues.
Widespread showers/tstms (and flight restrictions) are expected
to continue into Tues night behind the cold. Dry conditions are
expected by midweek as high pressure builds into the region. A
slight chc of mainly afternoon/evening showers/tstms returns
later in the week.

.MARINE...
As of 350 PM EDT Monday...
SCA's have been dropped for the area through tonight with seas
only 3-4 ft and winds of 10-15 kt across the area. Waves in
the bay/rivers will increase to 1-2 ft this evening as SW winds
increase ahead of an approaching cold front (though SCA
headlines are not expected).
Attention then turns to a rather strong cold frontal passage (for
early summer) that is progged across the waters on Tue. There
will likely be a period with higher winds as the wind directions
shift to the NW Tue aftn, and there is enough consensus from the
wind probs to issue SCA headlines for the Bay even though the
timeframe will be rather short-lived. Did not issue for the
rivers as it will be quite marginal though next shift may need
to consider at least placing the lower James into an advisory.
Also raised SCA for the Sound on Tue, with SW winds likely to
be 15-20kt for a good portion of the day with winds then
shifting to the N late. The models show a secondary CAA surge
likely early Wed morning but have trended weaker. As the front
stalls off the SE coast Thu and then may lift back to the NW,
there is some indication that ENE winds increase back near SCA
thresholds late thu into Fri with the potential for seas
building to 5 ft over the southern coastal waters. Then
generally sub- SCA conditions are expected late Fri into the
weekend.
Will have another moderate risk for rip currents on Tue given
long period swell. Nearshore waves may only be 2-3 ft given an
offshore flow for much of the day. Also, some portions of the
upper Bay may get close to minor flooding late tonight (mainly
Bishops Head).
