Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC
249 PM EDT Sun Apr 11 2021

.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front is expected to cross the region early this evening.
A second front will swing across the region late Monday into early
Tuesday. High pressure will briefly return Tuesday. The next low
pressure system may impact the region Wednesday and Thursday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
Clouds, mainly low and mid-level, have increased across the
western two-thirds of our CWA since around 11am when there was
plenty of sunshine. Temperatures may rise another 1 to 3 degrees
from where they stand now at peak heating of the day. A few
showers are currently on radar over western Maryland and central
Virginia. Additional showers and a few thunderstorms are
expected to develop, mainly along and east of I-81 the rest of
the afternoon into early this evening. We remain in a Marginal
Risk for Severe Thunderstorms along US 15 and east to the
Chesapeake Bay. The main threat with the thunderstorms will be
damaging winds and hail. A cold front will pass through the
region this evening and push most of the activity out of the CWA
before midnight. A dry slot will work its way into the region
tonight. Temperatures will drop into the upper 40s to the middle
50s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
The main low pressure system moving into northern parts of Ohio
will send additional pieces of energy toward our CWA on Monday.
This combined with any daytime heating may just be enough to
destabilize the atmosphere to get showers and thunderstorms to
develop Monday afternoon. The slow-moving cold core main low
will be slow to move to the east then southeast. Therefore,
additional showers are possible again on Tuesday. Weak high
pressure will build back into the region late Tuesday into
Wednesday. Another area of low pressure may impact the region
towards the latter portion of the week.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
Forecast details remain a bit changeable/uncertain due to decreased
predictability in a blocky upper level pattern with multiple closed
lows. On Wednesday, shortwave ridging and surface high pressure will
be departing quickly to the east. A closed low will be located over
the Great Lakes. Shortwave energy and height falls ahead of this low
may result in some showers through the day, and eventually
development of surface low pressure along an old frontal zone to our
south. It's still uncertain at this time if the low will ultimately
provide widespread precipitation or just an increased chance of
showers. With the gradually approaching upper low, some snow could
even occur in the highest elevations. Regardless of precipitation,
temperatures will likely be dipping below normal.

Cooler and unsettled weather likely continues through Thursday and
possibly into Friday as the closed upper low drifts near or north of
the Mid Atlantic. When the low eventually departs, there should be
at least 24 hours of dry weather and a slight increase in
temperatures. However, model guidance solutions vary widely on the
ensuing pattern evolution after that. Another shortwave trough (or
two) could bring additional precipitation chances next weekend, but
timing is very uncertain for now.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Fair weather cumulus make up most of the cloud cover across the
terminals. A couple of these will become showers and perhaps a
strong thunderstorm or two between 19z and 22z. A cold front
will move through and clear out convection by around midnight.
Until convection affects the terminals, VFR conditions are
expected. MVFR conditions possible in heavier showers or
thunderstorms. The main threat will be brief wind gusts over 35
knots in strong to severe thunderstorms. Mainly VFR conditions
during the beginning of the week. However sub- VFR conditions
may arise periodically over BWI and MTN in instances of light,
periodic showers.

Upper level low pressure will bring rain at times Wednesday into
Thursday. Some MVFR ceilings seem likely, if not lower overnight.
The system may pull away by Friday.

&&

.MARINE...
A Small Craft Advisory remains in effect until 6 pm for the
central Chesapeake Bay and Tidal Potomac.

A cold front, moving through the CWA, could spawn heavy showers
and a few thunderstorms late this afternoon and early evening.
This activity could promote Special Marine Warnings since the
main threat with heavy thunderstorms will be damaging winds and
hail.

High pressure returns later tonight through Monday night, with
a weak gradient and sub SCA conditions expected. Another cold
front will cross the area early Tuesday, with sub SCA conditions
persisting. Northwest to north winds will continue Wednesday
and Thursday as high pressure builds well to our northwest,
however winds look to mainly stay below Advisory thresholds.

Low pressure may track near the area Wednesday into Thursday. Small
Craft Advisories may be needed at times as the low tracks nearby,
and then in northwest flow in its wake. Low confidence in the
details at this time.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
A light onshore flow will continue through Monday and this will
cause elevated water levels during this time. Most places are more
likely to reach caution stage vs minor flood stage since the flow
will be light. However, minor flooding is still possible at
sensitive areas like the southwest waterfront in Washington DC.

&&

.LWX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
DC...None.
MD...None.
VA...None.
WV...None.
MARINE...Small Craft Advisory until 6 PM EDT this evening for ANZ534-
     537-543.
