AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Charleston WV
248 PM EDT Wed Aug 10 2022

.SYNOPSIS...
Showers/storms, most likely through this evening. A welcome dry
reprieve is expected late week and the weekend. Unsettled but
not hazardous weather for next week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/...
As of 142 PM Wednesday...

A quasi stationary frontal boundary remains oriented west to east
across the area through early tonight. In the absence of upper level
forcing, expect just isolated to scattered showers or storms to
develop this afternoon and evening. The front drifts further south
overnight, keeping chances for precipitation along and south of the
aforementioned boundary. Meanwhile, a new cold front pushes south
Thursday morning, pushing any lingering showers out of the area by
mid morning.

A Flash Flood Watch remains in effect through 10 PM for the lowlands
and until midnight for the mountains. The atmosphere remains very
wet today, with diurnal heating, differential heating boundaries,
and orographic effects acting as low level forcing. With PWATs
around 2 inches, heavy downpours or repetitive storms over the same
areas could produce flash flooding.

Models suggest a low stratus deck will develop across most of WV
overnight tonight. Areas of fog will be possible, although could be
suppressed by cloud cover. Any fog will dissipate by 13Z, and low
stratus will lift by 15Z Thursday.

Lows tonight will range from the upper 60s lowlands, into the lower
60s northeast mountains and extreme northern sections. Highs on
Thursday will generally be in the lower 80s lowlands, ranging
into the mid 60s highest elevations.

&&

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

Secondary cold frontal passage will be ongoing at the start of
the period. Lingering showers will be waning Friday morning as
influencing high pressure drops down from Canada and the Great
Lakes. Dry weather and cooler temperatures spells a Chamber of
Commerce start to the weekend as the high maintains residence
over the Ohio Valley. Abundant sunshine will reflect a beautiful
mid-August Friday and Saturday with little to no interference
from disturbances aloft. A relief from high dew points will also
ensue. Dense valley fog could be likely for Saturday morning as
low temperatures drop into the mid 50s.

&&

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

Increased cloudiness on Sunday will denote the end of our
brief, albeit much welcomed, dry weather as shortwave energy
reinvigorates an upper level trough settling into the eastern
portions of the country. Global models are also coming more on
board with slight chance POPs for the end of the weekend
compared to a much drier solution only days ago. This will then
be followed by more unsettled weather for the work week with
lobes of weak disturbances impeding on the area and tapping into
the returning low level moisture to create diurnally driven
showers and storms. Temperatures look to hold steady just below
their climatological norm through the end of the period.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
As of 149 PM Wednesday...

Scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue to develop along
and south of a stationary boundary this afternoon and evening. Under
a very juicy airmass, showers or storms can produce heavy downpours
reducing visibilities to IFR/LIFR.

The stationary frontal boundary, positioned across northern WV,
will drift south through Thursday morning. MVFR ceilings will be
common through this evening, becoming IFR across at most places
after midnight. Isolated/scattered convection will still
possible along and south of this boundary into early Thursday.

Uncertain whether storms could affect a terminal or not under
isolated to scattered convection. Continue with mention VCTS during
the afternoon and evening, and VCSH during the nighttime hours.
Coded TSRA at CKB and EKN which are the most vulnerable to be
affected by convection elements as they move northeast. Shower
chances will be confined to the southern terminals after 06-08Z.

Some IFR patchy fog will be possible, particuarly north and west.

Winds will be west southwest south of the front, but light from
the north, north of the front. Gusty winds are possible in any
thunderstorms.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 18Z THURSDAY...

FORECAST CONFIDENCE: Medium.

ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: Brief IFR/LIFR VSBY restrictions are
possible in heavier showers or any thunderstorms.
