Area forecast discussion, Jan 15, 3:24 PM EST, 28 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Wakefield VA
324 PM EST Fri Jan 15 2021

.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front will approach the area through early this afternoon,
then crosses the region tonight. An upper level trough tracks across
the area Saturday afternoon into Saturday evening. High pressure
builds to the south of the region Sunday and Monday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/...
As of 200 PM EST Friday...

A large upper-level low pressure system is located across the
Mississippi River Vally and extends from the Canadian border to
the Gulf of Mexico and from the Rocky Mountains to the Mid-
Atlantic coast. This system will bring a cold front across the
area later this afternoon and into tonight. Chance of rain is
80-100%.

Rain showers have developed across the VA Appalachian Mountains
already today, and are moving east. As the front crosses the
mountains and approaches the I-95 corridor, rain will become
more widespread along the front. Areas will likely see light
rain for 4-6 hours with embedded heavier showers. Rain totals
will still remain low, 0.25-0.75" with highest totals along the
coast. Timing of precip hasn't change much from yesterday.
Showers will begin this afternoon west of I-95, this evening
into tonight near the I-95 corridor, and overnight near the
coast. There may be a few showers lingering at the beaches early
Saturday morning. Temperatures will cool after the passage of
the cold front. Lows will be in the 30s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
As of 300 PM EST Friday...

The upper-level trough is still expected track across the
region tomorrow. The sky will likely start as partly sunny
Saturday morning, with increasing clouds for the afternoon, as
the cold pool aloft, associated with the upper-level low
pressure, moves in from the west. The airmass is dry in the low
levels, but have a chance for showers from late morning into
early evening. There will likely be some graupel mixed in with
rain in areas that see pcpn. Pop 20-30%. Saturday will be
cooler with highs in the low mid 40s, close to normal for this
time of year.

Skies will become clear overnight Saturday night. Low
temperatures Sunday morning will be in the mid 20s to low 30s.
A drier west, downsloping, flow will return to the area under a
partly to mostly sunny sky. High temps will be in the upper 40s
to low 50s.

Another trough, although weaker, will track across the eastern
half of the country Sunday and Monday. This system appears to be
much drier than the one coming through today and tomorrow.
Temperatures will remain seasonal into early next week with
highs in the 40s and lows near 30.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
As of 300 PM EST Friday...

High pressure will build into the area from the southwest
Tuesday and Wednesday. Conditions will be dry with seasonal
temperatures. Highs in the upper 40s to low 50s and low in the
low 30s.

A shortwave trough is expected to track across the Great Lakes
and Northeast late next week. This will bring a front near/into
the area. GFS is signaling that a low pressure will form along
the front across the Deep South and track towards the east
coast. While the ECMWF keeps the rain south of the area.
Depending on what side of the front we end up on will determine
the temperatures for the end of the weak. Although, no real cold
weather is expected through the extended with no threat of
winter weather.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
As of 130 PM EST Friday...

Clouds will increase and lower during the afternoon and evening
ahead of a cold front that will cross the area tonight. Rain
showers will accompany this front late this evening into
tonight, with lowering Cigs to MVFR at the TAF sites. IFR
conditions are expected along the front for site across VA and
MD (CIGs 400-800 ft). South winds at around 10 kt or less ahead
of the front, and west 05-10 kt behind the front. Pcpn will end
from west to east late tonight into Sat morning.

Clouds will develop after sunrise Saturday morning as an upper-
level low pressure system tracks across the region. However,
VFR conditions are expected. There may be light rain/snow
showers on Saturday.

OUTLOOK...
Sctd light rain/snow showers possible Sat aftn, as an upper
trough crosses the region. Mainly rain showers along the coast.
Low pressure lingers across northern New England/eastern Canada
Sun through Mon, while high pressure remains to our south.
Mainly VFR conditions are expected with a breezy westerly wind.

&&

.MARINE...
As of 320 PM EST Friday...

Afternoon satellite imagery shows sprawling, vertically-stacked low
pressure centered over the Midwest. A warm front is lifting
northward through the region this afternoon with a cold/occluded
front extending southward along the spine of the Appalachians. Winds
across the local waters are generally from the S or SSE 10-15 kt.
Waves are around 1 ft with seas 2-3 ft.

Weak low pressure is forecast to deepen along the occluded/warm/cold
frontal junction tonight and move NE across the area after midnight.
Winds turn westerly behind the front but with little in the way of
cold advection am not expecting winds to rise above SCA thresholds
through the morning hours Saturday. Secondary area of cold advection
will set up late Saturday afternoon into the overnight period with
winds increasing to ~20 kt in the Bay and lower James River as well
as the Currituck Sound. The upper rivers will likely stay just below
SCA thresholds Saturday night. Waves in the Bay increase to 2-4 ft
overnight before subsiding to 2-3 ft on Sunday. Offshore, winds
increase to 20-25 kt Saturday afternoon into the overnight. Seas
will slowly build Saturday morning with some potential for 5 ft seas
across the northern coastal waters by early afternoon. Seas increase
to 4-6 ft Saturday night and will take some time to fall back below
5 ft on Sunday as the pressure gradient relaxes. Another upper level
system and its associated weak cold front cross the area late Monday
night into Tuesday, with another brief period of SCA winds possible
during this time frame over the Bay/Sound.
