AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Charleston WV
856 PM EDT Wed Jun 22 2022

.SYNOPSIS...
Showers and potentially strong thunderstorms in WV early
tonight ahead of a cold front. Mostly dry and warm into the
weekend per high pressure. Next cold front Sunday night.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/...
As of 855 PM Wednesday...

Strong to severe thunderstorms moving southeast through WV
impacting this evening took advantage of strong CAPE, which was
waning, but bulk shear associated with a cold front entering
the area from the north was increasing a bit. This, with dew
points up around 70, was allowing thunderstorms to persist into
the night, essentially until they move out of the area around
midnight. Severe thunderstorm watch 402 was canceled in
southeast Ohio.

The forecast remains on track, with patchy fog likely in there
wake early Thursday morning. Other than morning stratocu in and
near the mountains Thursday morning, high pressure will bring
about sunshine with lower temperatures and humidity on
Thursday.

As of 230 PM Wednesday...

A shortwave trough migrating into the Great Lakes accompanied
by a surface cold front will be the primary feature of focus
through the course of the forecast period. Puffy afternoon cu
field at the time of writing will begin to transform as diurnal
heating erodes away at remnant convective inhibition in place.
Vertical development of the afternoon cu will tap into mixed
layer CAPE values on the upwards of 2500 J/kg to spark strong to
possibly severe thunderstorms, especially across the northeast
portions of the forecast area. Shear values will be more
utilized east of the Appalachians, so organization of storms
will be more isolated in nature in our neck of the woods.
Primary hazards that will be monitored with convection this
afternoon will be damaging winds, large hail, and localized
water issues from heavy downpours. Opted to not extend the
higher potential of POPs along the western flank of the line
based on timing and latest analysis of higher resolution models.

Lingering showers will hug the mountains after midnight into
Thursday morning, while the remainder of the area begins to feel
the influence of surface high pressure and the eastern extent
of ridging aloft. Dry weather then triumphs for the concluding
hours of the period.

Hot and muggy conditions currently reside over the Central
Appalachians with most reporting sites observing temperatures
stretching into the low 90s and dew points slowly rising into
the upper 60s/low 70s. Heat index values have crossed into the
triple digits across areas along the Ohio River Valley, which
warranted the Heat Advisory in effect until this evening. Lack
of a cold airmass dropping down in the wake of the cold front
will maintain warm temperatures on Thursday, but knocked down
closer to the climatological norm for this time of year in
comparison to today.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
As of 240 PM Wednesday...

High pressure sliding over or just north of the area will help
to keep the region dry in this period with partly to mostly
sunny skies and winds on the light side. Temps may warm slightly
from Thursday, but still expecting mountain highs in the 70s
and lower elevation highs in the 80s.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
As of 240 PM Wednesday...

As the high pressure area slides off the Mid-Atlantic coast,
low level winds will shift and bring increasing moisture back to
the area on Saturday. As a result, we may be able to fire off a
few showers or thunderstorms Saturday afternoon or evening,
with the best chances in the southern part of the CWA, and
perhaps up the higher terrain on the eastern border. However, a
much more coherent area of precipitation is expected Sunday
afternoon into Sunday night as a cold front approaches from the
northwest and passes through the area. We'll have to assess the
severe potential as it gets closer, but as of now, while
instability may be decent ahead of the front, shear may be
minimal. Behind the front, we can expect clear skies with cooler
and much more comfortable weather. Highs Monday and Tuesday are
forecast for the upper 70s to lower 80s at lower elevations,
with dewpoints down into the 50s, and perhaps even upper 40s in
some spots. A wind shift and increasing heights may allow for
temps to start rising again on Wednesday.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
As of 855 PM Wednesday...

Strong to severe thunderstorms moving southeast through WV
impacting this evening, impacting CRW, CKB and EKN right at the
start of the period, will also impact BKW 01Z-03Z before moving
out of the area around 04Z. Fog may develop at these sites
overnight and break up around dawn. MVFR stratocu accompanying
and following the thunderstorms may also reform early Thursday
morning in and near the mountains.

High pressure building into the area will then bring MVFR
conditions late Thursday morning through Thursday afternoon.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 00Z FRIDAY...

FORECAST CONFIDENCE: Medium to High.

ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: Thunderstorm impacts early on will vary
with additional amendments likely needed. Fog and stratocu may
vary into Thursday morning.
