Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Blacksburg VA
638 PM EDT Sun Jun 13 2021

.SYNOPSIS...
A front enters the area late tonight, pushing to the coast by
Tuesday. Drier air works in behind this system for much of the
coming week. The next chance of showers and thunderstorms
returns for next weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/...
As of 630 PM EDT Sunday...

...Small adjustments made to thunderstorm arrival...

The forecast on a whole will not be changed a great deal. We are
still expecting the ongoing thunderstorm activity southeast of
Covington to head southeast, and storms across central WV to
continue heading southeast into the Watch area. Have made minor
adjustments to the hourly grids regarding the timing of the best
chances of stronger storms entering the Watch area.

As of 500 PM EDT Sunday...

     Severe Thunderstorm Watch in effect through 10PM for
northwest part of the forecast area...

Forecast update in the near term reflects a more robust coverage
of showers and storms around the Lexington region over the next
couple of hours. Looking ahead into the evening hours, we will
become more concerned with activity that is currently across
northern sections of West Virginia. Showers and storms are
expected to head south following an instability axis and arrive
within the new Severe Thunderstorm Watch area with in the 7pm
to 9pm time frame, then progress southeast into the region. The
greatest severe threat will be damaging winds. Also, locations
that receive multiple rounds of heavy rain producing showers or
thunderstorms could be a candidate for localized flooding or
flash flooding. We will continue to monitor for both severe and
flooding threats.

As of 145 PM EDT Sunday...

     Threat of severe storms, some heavy rain along a line this
afternoon/evening...

High-res convective allowing models are somewhat different on
timing/strength of the convective clusters that extend eastern Ohio,
northern WV into the Shenandoah Valley north of Staunton this
afternoon.

The visible satellite shows limited vertical development in the cu
field in our forecast area. This shows that the 12z HREF/Nested NAM
and 16z RAP are overdone on convection as they were all showing
storms firing up in the Alleghanys from Greenbrier to Bath by now.
The 16z HRRR seems to have a better handle on what is occurring and
will lean toward its solution this afternoon, though the others have
the same flavor on lining up convection further north and showing a
scattered to broken line of storms moving south into our Alleghany
Highlands/Greenbrier Valley area east toward the Blue Ridge between
19z-22z, then shifting to the Roanoke/New River Valleys between 22-
01z, in two clusters, one pre-frontal the other more along an upper
wave.

Instability this afternoon is high but airmass is "drier" over us
with pwats of 1 to 1.3 inches. SBCAPEs are running above 2000 J/kg
in the mountains, and even higher over KY where temperatures are
warmer. Low cloud cover has slowed the destabilization further east,
but DCAPES are higher in the 1000-1300 J/kg range.

With instability present/available, am concerned we could at least
see some potential for stronger winds across our northern CWA later
this afternoon, though the better shear exists further north.

As we head through the evening, expect some weakening as this line
moves south through the NRV and Mountain Empire east to the piedmont
with models showing convection breaking up and ending late, though
some models are still showing lingering showers into the
overnight.

Will keep pops in the likely range north of I-64 this afternoon, to
chance pops along/west of the Blue Ridge, as a few showers/storms
could fire along the ridges after 4pm. By dusk ramp trying to time
the line of convection but also showing areal coverage lessening, so
will have likely pops from the Mountain Empire through the New and
Roanoke Valleys, northeast toward Lynchburg, tailing off the
low chance along/south of the Va/NC border.

As the vort associated with convection pushes off to the southeast
overnight, look for some clearing, but also have potential for low
clouds/fog again, especially where it rains, but confidence is low
on this. Will have more clouds in WV and the piedmont, with less in
along the Blue Ridge by dawn Monday with fog most everywhere in the
2 to 5 mile visby range.

Monday should be drier, as lower dewpoints at least work to the
mountains after frontal passage. There looks to be another wave
along the front moving across central Virginia Monday afternoon, but
overall a west-northwest flow increasing aloft to dry the airmass
out, so keeping any slight chance pops east of Lynchburg to Danville
line, with most places seeing  plenty of sunshine but staying warm
with highs in the lower 80s mountains to near 90 east.

Forecast confidence is high on threat of showers/storms through this
evening, though average on how high pops to go and how far south
this line makes it. Average confidence on fog/low clouds late
tonight but high confidence on a drier and sunnier Monday.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
As of 200 PM EDT Sunday...

 Shower chances trend down as high pressure builds in...

An upper trough sets up over much of the east coast of the CONUS,
anchored on a cutoff upper low in southeastern Canada. This will
advect some cooler, drier air into the area and help decrease the
chances of precip through the middle of the week. In addition,
higher surface pressure begins to settle in, arriving from the
midwest. The center of the surface high will be near OH and MI by
Wednesday night. The high pressure will also help to suppress
showers, but the possibility for some isolated showers exists
through Wednesday afternoon/evening, especially over the mountains,
but most will remain dry.

With largely clear skies and a bit of a drier air mass, expecting
diurnal temperature swings to be 20+ degrees as there is no cover to
block insolation during the day, no showers to cool daytime temps,
and little cover to prevent radiative cooling at night. This will be
more evident towards the mid-week; by Wednesday night, expecting
lows to drop into the 40s west of the Blue Ridge, 50s east. Highs in
this portion of the forecast will generally be in the mid 70s west,
mid 80s east.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
As of 200 PM EDT Sunday...

 Dry conditions last through Friday, but an approaching cold
front ends the calm weather this weekend...

High surface pressure will keep precip at bay through Friday.
Meanwhile a surface low moves through southern Canada and
towards the Great Lakes. That low has an associated cold front
trailing below it that approaches us by Saturday morning. The
surface high pressure that had been over us will slide off the
coast and synoptic flow will turn to the south/southwest ahead
of the front. This will warm things up for the weekend. Pre-
frontal showers will begin forming by Saturday afternoon and
should continue through Sunday.

Temperatures will start around or just below normal for the season
and rise to a few degrees above towards the end of the forecast
period.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
As of 125 PM EDT Sunday...

Have mainly VFR through this evening. Main concern for aviation
through this evening will be potential scattered to broken line
of convection that is extends from near CKB-north of SHD at
1730z moving southeast/south into the area after 19z, with
timing differences and strength per models. Appears LWB is in
the worse case scenario for impacts with sub-VFR likely in
thunderstorms between 22-24z, perhaps longer, with gusty winds
and heavy rain likely. ROA-BCB-BLF should see some
showers/storms possibly between 22z-02z, with VCTS at LYH around
01z. Showers will weaken/fade going toward late evening.

Overnight tonight, there remains differences in models as to
low cloud/fog development once again. Figured where it rains
will likely see this, so LWB/ROA/BCB/BLF should be seeing at
least MVFR in either fog/cigs after 06z, then clearing out after
12-14z Monday.

Front and deeper moisture should be across the piedmont by late
Monday morning so expect VFR.

Forecast confidence is high on cigs/vsbys most of the afternoon
today, then below average on extent of showers/storms having
impacts as far south as BLF-LYH late this afternoon/evening.

Confidence is average late tonight for fog/low clouds and above
average for VFR after 14z Mon.

Extended Aviation Discussion...

There is a low chance of thunderstorms Tuesday afternoon in the
mountains. Otherwise mainly VFR into Friday outside of any late
night fog in the mountains with high pressure settling in over
the region.
