AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WAKEFIELD VA
735 PM EST SUN FEB 10 2008
.SYNOPSIS...
A STRONG COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH THE MID ATLANTIC INTO TONIGHT...BRINGING
VERY WINDY CONDITIONS TO THE REGION. COLD HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN
FROM THE NORTHWEST TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY...THEN MOVES OFF THE MID
ATLANTIC COAST ON TUESDAY. ANOTHER COLD FRONT APPROACHES
TUESDAY...AND CROSSES THE REGION ON WEDNESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS BACK OVER THE AREA LATE IN THE WEEK.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 2 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
GIVEN OBS ACROSS CENTRAL VA ATTM...DECIDED TO HOLD ONTO WIND ADVY
A COUPLE OF HOURS MORE OVR VA COUNTIES. THINKING IS WNDS WL COME
DOWN AND GUSTS WL BECOME LESS FREQUENT THROUGH ERY THIS
EVENING...BUT USE EXTENDED ADVY AS A BIT OF A BUFFER AS WINDS
RELAX A BIT. WINDS STILL EXPECTED TO EASE SIGNIFICANTLY AFTER
MIDNIGHT. PRVS DISCUSSION IS BELOW.
GUSTY WINDS HAVE BEEN REALIZED THROUGHOUT THE AREA AS THE STRONG
FRONT SLOWLY APPROACHES. PRETTY SIG TEMP/DEW PT GRADIENT JUST TO
OUR NW...LOUISA RIGHT NOW IS SITTING AT 55/23 WHEREAS JUST BEHIND
THE FRONT TEMPS ARE DROPPING INTO THE UPR 20S TO LWR 30S AND DEW
PTS ARE 1 TO 18 DEGREES. FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH THROUGH THE
REGION THIS AFTN AND EVNG...AND OFFSHORE AFTER SUNSET. THIS MAKES
FOR A COLD NIGHT TONIGHT AFTER A PERIOD OF PRETTY MILD TEMPS.
WINDS TAKE A WHILE TO DIMINISH TONIGHT ESP OVER THE EASTERN
SHORE...SO WIND CHILLS WILL TAKE A DIVE AS WELL. AS IT STANDS
RIGHT NOW...THE EASTERN SHORES WIND CHILLS WILL BE RIGHT AROUND
ZERO...AROUND 5 DEGREES OVER THE NORTHERN PIEDMONT TO MID TEENS
FOR OUR SE COUNTIES. SINCE OUR WIND CHILL ADVSRY CRITERIA FOR OUR
MD AND VA COUNTIES IS -5 DEGREES...THIS IS JUST ABOVE THAT
THRESHOLD SO NO PRODUCTS WILL BE ISSUED. BUT THE EVNG SHIFT WILL
HAVE TO MONITOR AND THINK ABOUT ISSUING AN ADVSRY IF THE EASTERN
SHORE INDEED DROPS A BIT COLDER.
&&
.SHORT TERM /2 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
THE
CENTER OF THE HIGH BUILDS IN OVERHEAD ON MONDAY SO WINDS DIMINISH
EVEN FURTHER AND SKIES REMAIN MOCLEAR. THE EASTERN SHORE MAY HOLD
ONTO SOME GUSTS THROUGH MID AFTN HOWEVER UNTIL THE HIGH REACHES
THE COAST. A PRETTY STRONG PUSH OF COLD AIR WILL KEEP TEMPS DOWN
IN THE MID 30S FOR MUCH OF THE PIEDMONT...CLOSER TO 40 DEGREES IN
THE SE. THE EASTERN SHORE DOESNT LOOK TO GET ABOVE FREEZING.
PRETTY SIMILAR LOWS ON MON NIGHT...COULD BE LOWER BUT AN INCREASE
IN CLOUDS IS EXPECTED ESP OVER THE WEST.
WINDS SHIFT BACK TO THE SOUTH ON TUES AS HIGH PRESSURE MVS
OFFSHORE AND CLOUDS ARE EXPECTED TO INCREASE RAPIDLY THROUGHOUT
THE DAY AS THE NEXT SYSTEM MVS INTO THE OHIO VALLEY. THE NAM IS
SLIGHTLY FASTER (WHEREAS THE LATEST GFS RUNS ARE SLIGHTLY SLOWER THAN
PREVIOUS RUNS) SO DIDNT TOUCH THE CURRENT FCST TOO MUCH. THIS
BRINGS THE CHANCE OF RAIN INTO OUR NW COUNTIES TUES AFTN. A LOW
DVLPS OFF THE SE COAST LATE TUES AND HEADS UP THIS WAY AS THE
PRIMARY LOW MVS INTO NEW ENGLAND...SO WHILE OUR AREA IS BETWEEN
THESE TWO SYSTEMS TUES NIGHT...OUR PRECIP CHANCES REMAIN RATHER
LOW FOR THIS PERIOD. AS THE LOW MVS INTO OUR COASTAL WATERS WED
MORNING AND THE FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE WEST...OUR PRECIP
CHANCES INCREASE BUT NOT ALL THAT SIGNIFICANTLY AS MOISTURE STILL
LOOKS TO BE SOMEWHAT CUT-OFF FOR US AND MAIN LOBE OF ENERGY
REMAINS TO OUR NORTH.
&&
.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...

DCRG CLDNS W OF CHES BAY AFTR MIDNITE. SO FCSTD BELOW FREEZING
