Area forecast discussion, May 10, 3:29 PM EDT, 3 hours 59 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC
329 PM EDT Mon May 10 2021
.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front will settle to our south today. A slow moving upper
trough will reside to our north tomorrow and Wednesday, with
high pressure building overhead at the surface for the middle to
latter portions of the week.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM TUESDAY MORNING/...
Showers have finally cleared the area, and this morning's solid
overcast has largely broken up outside of southern Maryland to
near Fredericksburg. Just a few fair weather cumulus clouds
remain further north as post cold frontal northerly flow ushers
cooler and drier air into the region. Temperatures will max out
in the 60s this afternoon for most.
The overnight hours will start out with mostly clear skies, but
clouds will be on the increase overnight as a weak disturbance
embedded in zonal flow passes through. The HRRR even hints that
a few light showers may try to form across southwestern portions
of the forecast area. If any showers were to form, they'd be
light and brief in nature. Cloud cover will keep temperatures
warmer than they potentially could be, with overnight lows
ranging from the upper 30s in the mountains, to around 50 in
downtown DC and Baltimore.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
A mid-upper level trough currently centered over Lake Superior
will slowly drift southward toward our area during the day
tomorrow. As the upper low drops southward, and mid-levels start
to cool, showers are expected to develop in response to daytime
heating tomorrow afternoon. With equilibrium levels around -10
C, no lightning is expected, but the showers could produce a
brief heavy downpour with gusty winds. Any showers should decay
shortly after dark with loss of daytime heating. As the trough
drops southward, it will drive a very weak reinforcing cold
front through the area. Temperatures will be quite chilly
tomorrow night, with lows dropping into the 30s (to the west of
the Blue Ridge) and lower to middle 40s (to the east of the Blue
Ridge). Issued a Freeze Watch for most of the Allegheny Front
where temperatures are likely to be coldest.
Zonal flow aloft will be maintained on Wednesday as the upper
low to our north starts to move off to the east. At the surface,
high pressure will build toward the area from the Great Lakes.
The combination of building high pressure and zonal flow aloft
will lead to mostly sunny skies. Temperatures will hold below
normal (highs in the 60s) as northwesterly winds in advance of
the approaching high continue to transport seasonably cool air
into the area. As high pressure builds closer still Wednesday
night, wind may go weak enough for some spots to decouple. As a
result, frost/freeze headlines may potentially be needed again
to the west of the Blue Ridge.
&&
.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
Cyclonic flow begins to exit the northeastern U.S. on Thursday with
a split jet structure noted further upstream. A sprawling ridge of
surface high pressure extends from the Missouri Valley into much of
the eastern U.S. While a passing shortwave trough will weaken this
dome of high pressure, it should remain a fixture in the forecast
into the upcoming weekend. Models are in agreement that height falls
should move through the Mid-Atlantic on Friday. Compared to this
past weekend's upper low, this should be much less impressive in
terms of shower production. The vertical column is not nearly as
cold, instability is nearly non-existent, and wind fields aloft are
quite weak. However, will maintain a chance of some showers for
Friday. This system eventually induces cyclogenesis well off the
southeastern U.S. coast which is of no consequence to the Mid-
Atlantic region.
For the weekend, the northern stream is forecast to dominate the
pattern with prevailing northwesterly flow expected. This will
maintain the extended period of below average temperatures.
Depending on the level of amplification of the upstream flow, some
shower chances may intermittently impact the region over the
weekend. Confidence does remain low in the threat for showers. Winds
eventually become westerly by Sunday which may bring temperatures
closer to mid-May climatology. This would favor mid 70s with 60s
across the higher terrain. Will continue to monitor the progression
of an approaching warm front which may aid in further warmth into
next week. The composite of global ensembles support a warming trend
which also is indicated in the Day 6-10 Climate Prediction Center
outlook.
&&
.AVIATION /20Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
VFR conditions and northwesterly winds are expected at the
terminals through Wednesday. Winds may gust to around 15 to 20
knots each afternoon.
Thursday and Friday should bring VFR conditions to the
terminals. With surface high pressure in place, winds are to be
on the lighter side with variable directions at times. A few
showers are possible by Friday, but confidence is below average.
&&
.MARINE...
Winds will remain northwesterly through Wednesday, with gusts to
low-end SCA levels at times. The only opportunity for winds to
get stronger than low-end SCA will be tomorrow afternoon in any
convective showers that form. Coverage of these showers isn't
expected to be high, but an SMW or two can't be ruled out
tomorrow afternoon if these showers are able to bring higher
winds down from aloft.
Sprawling high pressure across the area will keep winds below small
craft levels for Thursday and Friday, and likely into the weekend as
well.
