What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this small craft advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Wakefield, VA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at Jul 1, 1:57 AM EDT, 1 hour 59 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jul 1, 1:57 AM EDT, 1 hour 59 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Wakefield VA 157 AM EDT Thu Jul 1 2021 .SYNOPSIS... A trough of low pressure and an associated cold front approach from the northwest late Thursday. This trough and frontal boundary slowly cross the area Friday, bringing cooler conditions and increased chances of showers and thunderstorms. High pressure builds in from the northwest over the holiday weekend. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THIS MORNING/... As of 940 PM EDT Wednesday... Latest sfc analysis depicts the Bermuda high to the east and a trough approaching from the west with a few weak storms in Louisa county. Convection has struggled so far this evening due to increasing CIN. High res models continue to suggest isolated showers/storms may push a little further into the piedmont, and perhaps the MD portions of the Eastern Shore (although this scenario is increasingly less likely as much of the original line of showers/storms has fallen apart) through ~06z Thursday before dissipating. Will carry slight chc PoPs across those zones this evening to account for this possibility. Otherwise, expect another mostly clear/partly cloudy and muggy night with lows in the lower to mid 70s. && .SHORT TERM /6 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/... As of 320 PM EDT Wednesday... Models show the upr ridge breaking down pushing the ridge axis offshore Thurs. This allows a potent upr trof to dive se into the Gt lakes region. Day begins mstly sunny which allows enough heating for temps to jump back into the upr 80s-lwr 90s. Models then show convection dvlpng ahead/along the leading trof after 18Z, pushing se thru the late aftrn. Given the above scenario, SPC has upgraded areas across the Va nrn neck and ern shore to a SLGHT risk while the rest of the fa north of the NC/VA border in a MRGNL svr risk. Main threat is for damaging wind gusts given 35-40 kt in the 700-500 mb layer, richer low-level moisture and steepened 0-2 km lapse rates. Locally heavy downpours will also be psbl given PW's arnd 2 inches. PoPs quickly ramp up during the aftrn. The svr threat diminishes Thurs eve but pcpn conts as the cold front merges up with the leading trof. In addition, models show s/w energy riding ne along this bndry keeping high PoPs Thurs night/Fri morning. Pcpn begins to taper off from NW to SE Fri aftrn/eve as the entire systm shifts se. Thunder chcs will continue thru Fri though the svr threat will diminish. Main concern will be locally hvy rainfall from training echoes Thurs night/Fri. WPC conts to have areas just north of the AKQ fa in a day2 ERO SLGHT risk with MRGNL risk farther se. Will hold off on any flood watch attm given the ff guidance (2+ in per hour) across the north and two separate rounds of convection expected over the next 72 hrs. Would like to see how much rainfall falls with the leading convection late Thurs first. Lows Thurs night mid 60s-lwr 70s. Cooler Fri with highs mid 70s nw to lwr 80s se. Lows Fri night in the 60s. The steady pcpn exits Sat but lingering upr lvl energy will likely be the trigger for at least slght chc PoPs Sat aftrn/eve with the highest PoPs along the ne coast. Highs Sat 80-85. Lows Sat night in the 60s. && .LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... As of 120 PM EDT Wednesday... Models show high pressure building back over the region early next week. In addition, a sfc trof lingers just off the coast Sun/Mon with a lee trof developing by Tue/Wed. GFS/ECMWF not to excited about pcpn during the time frame east of the mts, with only sct activity mainly north/west of the local area thru Tue. Some convection progged to make it east of the Blue Ridge by mid week. Dry wx expected for the holiday Sun/Sun night. Highs in the 80s except near 80 at the beaches. Lows 65-70. Warming back up Mon/Tue with highs 85-90 Mon and upr 80s-lwr 90s Tue. Lows mid 60s-lwr 70s. Low chc late day PoPs Wed. Highs upr 80s-lwr 90s. && .AVIATION /06Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... As of 155 AM EDT Thursday... High pressure remains centered well off the Southeast coast as of 06z, with low pressure over Atlantic Canada and an associated cold front extending to the SW into the Ohio Valley. Partly cloudy to mostly clear, with isolated showers/tstms well N of RIC and well W of SBY. VFR conditions prevail through 18z at RIC/SBY, closer to 00z for PHF/ORF, and after 00z for ECG. Showers/tstms develop ahead of the approaching cold front this afternoon from RIC to SBY, and then spread toward PHF/ORF later in the afternoon to early evening, and then more into tonight for ECG. The front will be slow moving, so showers and embedded tstms will continue tonight for most of the area. Cigs are expected to lower tonight, with MVFR likely, and IFR possible. Occasional IFR/LIFR vsby is likely in heavy rain. The front will be slow to cross the region Friday with showers/tstms and degraded flight conditions continuing. Drier conditions arrive by Saturday and Independence Day, with only a minimal chc of afternoon/evening showers/tstms Saturday, and mainly dry conditions by Sunday. Dry conditions continue into early next week as high pressure aloft spreads over the area. && .MARINE... As of 320 PM EDT Wednesday... A lee trough will continue to sharpen over inland areas late this afternoon with an associated tightening of the pressure gradient and increased SW flow. Some high-res guidance is still showing winds 15- 20 kt in the lower bay/Currituck Sound and coastal waters overnight into the early morning hours of Thursday. Given relatively short duration, marginal magnitude and limited certainty, will not raise any SCAs with this forecast package. Lee trough strengthens on Thursday with the approach of an upper trough, allowing increased SW winds to continue along with chances for showers and thunderstorms. SCAs will likely be needed for the lower Bay and Currituck Sound Thursday night for SW winds 15-20 kt and gusts to 25 kt. Seas build to 4-5 ft by Thursday afternoon north of Cape Charles and maintains these levels into Friday morning. Additional showers and storms are possible on Friday ahead of a cold front that is expected to cross the waters overnight into Saturday. Thereafter, more benign marine conditions are expected for the holiday weekend as flow turns NW. && .AKQ WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... MD...None. NC...None. VA...None.
