AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV 328 PM EDT SAT JUN 24 2006 .LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/... A VERY WET PATTERN BY ALL THE MODELS THROUGH MUCH OF THIS PERIOD...ESPECIALLY SUNDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY MORNING WITH POTENTIAL WATER PROBLEMS. THE MODELS SHOW A LARGE UPPER LOW BEING CARVED OUT OVER THE MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY BY SUNDAY...WITH A DEEP TROPICAL SOUTHERLY FLOW REACHING ALL THE WAY FROM THE LOWER LATITUDES TO OVER OUR REGION INTO TUESDAY. THIS WILL KEEP A NORTH TO SOUTH FRONTAL BOUNDARY ACROSS OUR AREA...ALONG WITH VERY MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIR TO INTERACT WITH IT. THIS IN ITSELF WOULD BRING NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS LATER THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK...BUT THE MODELS ARE ALSO SHOWING A TROPICAL LOW LIFTING NORTHWARD ALONG THE MOUNTAINS LATER MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT. THE COMBINATION OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY AND THE TROPICAL LOW WOULD POINT TO THE GREATEST WATER THREAT BEING IN THE MOUNTAINS...AND THIS WILL BE HIGHLIGHTED IN THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK PRODUCT. THE UPPER LOW WILL LIFT OUT LATER TUESDAY AND BRING A COOL FRONT ACROSS OUR AREA TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY MORNING. THIS WOULD TAKE THE BEST CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OUT OF THE AREA WEDNESDAY. HOWEVER...A SERIES OF COOL FRONTS WILL CROSS THE AREA LATER IN THE WEEK INTO NEXT WEEKEND...KEEPING THE THREAT FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. TEMPERATURES LOOK TO BE NEAR NORMAL MUCH OF THE PERIOD...DUE MAINLY TO ALL THE CLOUDS AND PRECIP. MAV TEMPERATURE GUIDANCE LOOKS REASONABLE AND GENERALLY FOLLOWED. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 246 PM EDT SAT JUN 24 2006/ SHORT TERM /REST OF TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...

INCREASED POPS OVER THE EASTERN MOUNTAINS TONIGHT...LEAVING CHC POPS FOR MOST OTHER LOCATIONS. FRONTAL BAND REMAINS IN PLACE SUNDAY WITH MAIN DYNAMIC FOCUS SHIFTING FURTHER WEST. IN ADDITION...PW VALUES INCREASE FROM ALREADY HIGH VALUES...AS MOISTURE FEED FROM THE ATLANTIC BEGINS TO OPEN UP...AS DEEP 5H TROUGH BEGINS TO SET UP ACROSS THE MIDWEST. WITH THE GROUND BECOMING SATURATED WITH ACTIVITY ONGOING TODAY...WATER PROBLEMS WILL BECOME MORE PREVALENT SUNDAY. AVIATION... LAYER OF SC WIDESPREAD ACROSS THE CWA TODAY KEEPING CIGS IN THE IFR-MVFR RANGE THROUGHOUT MUCH OF THE DAY. AN AREA OF INSTABILITY COVERS THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE CWA...FROM S OF KHTS TO KEKN...LEADING TO SOME ISOLATED CB DEVELOPMENT. CB MORE NUMEROUS INVOF EKN WHERE UPSLOPE FLOW IS OCCURRING. FRONT WILL SHOW LITTLE MOVEMENT OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS. HIGHER AMOUNTS OF MOISTURE IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TO STREAM INTO THE FORECAST AREA FROM THE SOUTH .
