Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Blacksburg VA
159 PM EDT Thu Aug 8 2024
.SYNOPSIS...
Moderate to heavy rainfall from current Tropical Storm Debby will
increase in coverage over the area Thursday into Friday, and will
increase the risk of flooding, especially along and east of the Blue
Ridge. Debby pushes to the northeast by Friday night, cooler
and drier air arrives by Saturday, and will bring more tranquil
weather for the start of the week.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
As of 1145 AM EDT Thursday...
Key Messages:
- High Risk of flooding today and tonight. Heavy rainfall
will likely result in considerable to catastrophic flash
flooding.
-Rotating storms could produce tornadoes across the Virginia
and North Carolina Piedmont.
At 11AM TS Debby was 80 miles southeast of Charlotte North
Carolina. Northwest edge of rainfall shield extended from
Amherst, VA to Boone, NC. The TS is moving slowly leading to
prolonged 1-2inch/hour rainfall amounts for the next 3 to 12
hours as the TS moves north.
Will be increasing wind gusts in the forecast based on current
observations across southern Virginia and Northern North
Carolina. However, the TS will gradually weaken, so the wind
threat will be mainly today and will diminish tonight. Due to
the combination of wind and saturated ground there have been
numerous trees reported down and the numbers of power outages
is increasing. A majority of these reports have been south of
Route 460.
No changes to temperatures at this time
Previous Discussion:
As of 300 AM EDT...
Tropical Storm Debby is currently located along on the South
Carolina coast, recently making landfall. Rain continues to develop
and increase in coverage and intensity across the Carolinas this
morning. Strong easterly flow ahead of Debby has resulted in areas
of upslope rain along and east of the Blue Ridge. These will
continue through the morning and increase in coverage as 850mb
moisture transport continues to strengthen. Main swath of rain
directly associated with Debby is beginning to push into Southside
Virginia and north central North Carolina. This will continue
through the morning and reach the 81 corridor by noon.
The threat for very efficient rainfall rates continues to increase
across our area. Fueled by high Precipitable Water and terrain
enhancement, high rainfall rates will likely result in flash
flooding over the Blue Ridge, Foothills, and Piedmont areas of
Virginia and North Carolina. Some convectively enhanced bands will
also occur across central Virginia, leading to the increased threat
of flash flooding. The aforementioned areas are where the confidence
of the heaviest rainfall remains. Heaviest rain timing appears to be
from 2pm this afternoon through 2am Friday.
The threat for very efficient rainfall rates continues to increase

also occur across central Virginia, leading to the increased threat
of flash flooding. The aforementioned areas are where the confidence
of the heaviest rainfall remains. Heaviest rain timing appears to be
from 2pm this afternoon through 2am Friday.
Secondary concern is the threat for rotating storms this afternoon
and tonight. Low pressure center will track somewhere along the 81
corridor through Virginia and the area of concern for tornadoes will
be in Central Virginia, particularly along and east of US29. Modeled
0-3km helicity values nearing 300 m2/s2 coinciding with CAPE nearing
1000 J/kg should support convective rainbands with embedded
supercells capable of producing tornadoes. To support this, several
radar confirmed tornadoes have already occurred this morning
across eastern North Carolina.
Be weather aware over the next 24 to 36 hours as conditions could
rapidly deteriorate. Have a way to receive warnings if a flash flood
warning or tornado warning is issued.
&&
.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
As of 300 AM EDT Thursday...
Key Messages:
1. Lingering light showers possible through Friday night.
2. Mostly dry weather expected for the remainder of the weekend.
The remnants of what is currently Tropical Storm Debby will be into
the upper Mid Atlantic and New England by Friday night, as the
system gets lifted northward by an upper trough. Some lingering
showers in the area are possible overnight and into early Saturday
morning, as a surface front pushes into the region from the west.
Behind the front and tropical system, a cooler and drier airmass
will build into the area, and high pressure will become situated
overhead through Sunday. For the remainder of the weekend, weather
will be much drier, and only very limited chances of precipitation,
mainly in NC and southward, as the front stalls across the
southeastern states.
Temperatures will be cooler, near to a couple degrees below seasonal
normals, in the mid to upper 70s in the west, and mid 80s in the
east. Plentiful sunshine and lower dewpoints are expected through
Sunday.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
As of 300 AM EDT Thursday...
Key Messages:
1. Quieter weather pattern for beginning of the week, with limited
precipitation probabilities.
2. Temperatures near normal through the period.
A much quieter weather pattern is expected for the beginning of the
work week, with surface high pressure settled over the Ohio Valley
and Mid Atlantic region, keeping precipitation chances limited. Some
isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms are possible
Tuesday afternoon, mainly along and south of the VA/NC border, as a
front drifts northward into the Carolinas, but probabilities are low
at this time.
Temperatures will be near normal through the period, in mostly the
70s west of the Blue Ridge, and low to mid 80s east.
&&
.AVIATION /18Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
As of 140 PM EDT Thursday...
Widespread IFR to MVFR ceilings across southern Virginia and
northern North Carolina with TS Debby. The TS is moving north
slowly so no changes to ceilings are expected through 00Z/8PM.
Visibility will be mainly VFR but the heavier rain will result
in MVFR ceilings. Winds will be gusting 25 to 40kts.
The center of Debby will track close to KROA and KLYH. By 12Z
Debby is expected to be far enough north to shift the winds to
the northwest. The rain will gradually move north out of the
local area between 06Z/2am and 12Z/8AM.
Winds will be lighter on Friday. Expecting IFR to LIFR ceilings
to be slow to lift Friday morning.
Average confidence on visibility and wind.
Below average confidence on ceiling.
AVIATION OUTLOOK...
Remnants of Debby continue moving N through the region through
Friday. Improving flight categories expected as Debby moves
away from the region Friday night.
High pressure moves into the region this weekend and VFR is
expected outside of areas of morning fog through early next
week.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
As of 315 AM EDT Thursday...
A rare High Risk for excessive rainfall has been issued for a
large portion on the area extending from the Blue Ridge of
Virginia and east into the Virginia and North Carolina Piedmont.
The last issued high risk for our area occurred in May of 2020
where significant flooding occurred with that event.
Expecting heavy rainfall to increase across the area today from
east to west as Debby continues to push inland across the
Carolinas, and then eventually north along the Blue Ridge
tonight. Very high ambient moisture associated with the tropical
remnants will allow very high efficient rainfall rates. Overall
much of the area remains in a drought, so should be able to
handle lower rainfall rates to an extent. However, the concern
is with convectively enhanced rainfall bands training
repeatedly across the mountains and Piedmont, coupled with PWAT
values exceeding 2.25 inches. This will produce large amounts of
rain within a short period of time, thus resulting in the high
risk of excessive rainfall.
Main stem river flooding is also expected in the Dan and
Roanoke River basins. Areawide 4 to 8 inches is expected and
likely to see several locations along the Roanoke and lower Dan
to go into flood stage by Friday.
