Area forecast discussion, Jun 22, 6:58 PM EST, 1 hour 2 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV 758 PM EDT THU JUN 22 2006 .AVIATION... LINE OF CONVECTION MOVING INTO THE WESTERN PORTION OF THE CWA AT THIS TIME. LINE IS REMAINING ACTIVE AS OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES CONTINUE TO FIRE CONVECTION IN ADVANCE OF MAIN LINE. THIS TREND IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TIL AROUND 06Z...WITH ACTIVITY GRADUALLY TAPERING OVERNIGHT. EXPECT CIGS ACROSS SITES TO DROP INTO MVFR CATEGORIES AS THE BOUNDARY ADVANCES. IN ADDITION...GUSTY OUTFLOW WINDS CAN BE EXPECTED. DYING OVERNIGHT CONVECTION WILL ALSO REINFORCE BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE WHICH WILL ALLOW VALLEY FOG TO DEVELOP ALONG THE RIVERS BY DAYBREAK. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 333 PM EDT THU JUN 22 2006/ LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/... QUASI-STATIONARY FRONTAL BOUNDARY TO SET UP ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA FRIDAY NIGHT AND LINGER THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD. MOIST UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE...COUPLED WITH DYNAMIC FORCING PRODUCED BY CLOSE BAROCLINIC ZONE WILL LEAD TO AN ACTIVE PERIOD OF WEATHER. GFS SUFFERING FROM GRID SCALE FEEDBACK THROUGH ITS SHORT TERM...SO THROUGH 84 HOUR FORECAST UTILIZED THE NAM. BOUNDARY PROGGED TO LINGER INTO THE START OF NEXT WEEK AND GRADUALLY WEAKEN ..WITH CONTINUED CHANCE FOR MAINLY DIURNAL SHOWER ACTIVITY. FOR TEMPS...STAYED CLOSE TO HPC GUIDANCE VALUES. PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 258 PM EDT THU JUN 22 2006/ SHORT TERM /REST OF TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/... GOOD DIVERGENCE ALOFT THIS AFTERNOON WILL KEEP THE THUNDERSTORMS GOING IN THE NW PORTION OF THE CWA UNTIL SUNSET. NE ORIENTATION OF THE FLOW ALOFT SHOULD PUSH THE DIVERGENCE AREA TO THE NE THIS EVENING. FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL PUSH SE LATER TONIGHT AS WAVE MOVES THROUGH FLOW. BUT...IT WILL TAKE SECOND STRONGER WAVE TO PUSH THE FRONT SOUTH FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY. THIS WILL MEAN THE FRONT WILL BE IN THE VICINITY OF THE OHIO RIVER THROUGH THE DAY FRIDAY. EXACT LOCATION OF FRONT WILL MAKE TEMPERATURE FORECAST TRICKY. HAVE KEPT LOW TEMPS UP TONIGHT OHIO RIVER WEST BUT EXPECT FEW CLOUDS EAST. MAX TEMP FORECAST FOR FRIDAY HAVE HELD DOWN TEMPS OHIO RIVER WEST WITH CLOUDS AND PCPN. IN WEST VIRGINIA HAVE PUSHED THE MAX TEMPS IN SW TO NEAR 90. AVIATION... EXPECT CIGS TO REMAIN IN VFR EXCEPT BRIEF MVFR IN THUNDERSTORMS. WITH CONTINUING DRY CONDITIONS AND THE FOCUS OF THE UPPER DIVERGENCE GUIDING THE THUNDERSTORMS TO THE NORTH OF OUR CWA...DO NOT EXPECT MUCH IN THE WAY OF FOG PROBLEMS. NEW TAFS WILL BETTER FOCUS ON FOG TONIGHT AFTER WE SEE WHERE RAIN DOES OCCUR. PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 336 AM EDT THU JUN 22 2006/ SHORT TERM /REST OF TODAY THROUGH TONIGHT/... FRONTS REMAIN TO OUR NORTHWEST...LEAVING US IN THE WARM SECTOR STILL. CLOSEST TO THE FRONT...SE OHIO AND N AND W WEST VIRGINIA WILL SEE THE BEST CHANCE OF MORNING AND AFTERNOON CONVECTION TODAY. OTHERWISE...SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY AFTERNOON...MUCH OF THE REMAINDER OF THE CWA SHOULD EXPERIENCE OFF AND ON HIGH CLOUDS FOR THE MOST PART. STILL WE ARE IN A MOIST AND UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT...SO A ROUGE POP UP SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM WILL NOT BE OUT OF THE QUESTION LATER TODAY. TEMPERATURE WISE TODAY...MODELS ARE PRETTY CONSISTENT...SO HAVE NOT DEVIATED MUCH. STILL HAVE GONE A COUPLE DEGREES COOLER ACROSS SE OHIO...WHERE MORE CLOUDS SHOULD PERSIST TODAY. THE FRONT WILL SLIDE SOUTHEASTWARD OVER CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN OHIO...OVERNIGHT TONIGHT...GIVING SE OHIO AND NW WEST VIRGINIA A BETTER CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. HAVE INCREASED POPS TO LIKELY AS A RESULT ACROSS THAT AREA. IN FACT...OVERNIGHT TONIGHT WILL BE THE BEST CHANCE FOR THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA TO RECEIVE SOME MUCH NEEDED RAIN. && .RLX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... WV...NONE. OH...NONE. KY...NONE.
