AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WAKEFIELD VA
402 PM EDT MON JUL 7 2008
.SYNOPSIS...
A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE MOVES ACROSS THE REGION TONIGHT AND TUESDAY...THEN
PUSHES OFF THE COAST TUESDAY NIGHT. WEAK HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN
TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY MORNING...WITH A COLD FRONT MOVING ACROSS
THE AREA WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM TUESDAY MORNING/...
FOR THE EVENG...MAIN FCST CHALLENGES INVOLVE CHANCES FOR
SHWRS/TSTMS AND SEVERE POTENTIAL MAINLY THIS EVENING. THUS
FAR...UPPER LOW TO OUR WEST HAS MOVED SLOWER THAN
ANTICIPATED...AND LATEST RADAR TRENDS DEPICT VRY SLOW EASTWARD
PROGRESSION OF TSTMS FROM THE MTNS/I-81 CORRIDOR. HAVE DROPPED
PRECIP CHANCES TO 40-50% GIVEN THESE TRENDS.
NOT OUT OF THE QSTN TO SEE SOME STRNG TO MARGINAL SVR STORMS
DVLPNG (DAMAGING WNDS/HAIL BEING MAIN THREAT)...BUT WITH
EXPECTATION THAT MOST ORGANIZED STORMS WILL NOT REACH OUR CWA
UNTIL LATER IN THE EVENG FEEL SVR THERAT WILL BE ISOLATED...AND
HAVY RAIN THREAT LIKELY NOT AS HIGH AS YSDY GIVEN SOMEWHAT LOWER
DEW PTS TODAY (65-70 RATHER THAN LWR/MID 70S YSDY).
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY/...
PESKY UPPER LOW FINALLY LOOKS TO MOVE EASTWARD AND ACROSS THE AREA
AS A WEAKENED OPEN WAVE TROUGH ON TUESDAY. NOT A REAL STRONG COLD
POOL DUE TO ITS WEAKENED STATE...BUT CAN STILL EXPECT SOME ENHANCED
LIFT AND INSTABILITY SO HAVE BUMPED POPS UP TO 40% FOR THE AFTN/ERLY
EVENG FOR ALL ZONES. STRG WINDS/HAIL WOULD BE MAIN SVR THREAT IF
STORMS BECOME ORGANIZED ENOUGH. HIGHS MAINLY IN THE UPPER 80S TO
LOWER 90S.
EXPECT FAIRLY RAPID DISSIPATION OF PRECIP TUE NGT AS ARE OF NVA IN
MID LVLS MOVES IN...WITH PTLY TO MSTLY SUNNY SKIES FOR 1ST PART OF
WED. FAST MOVING FLOW WILL BRING INCREASING INSTABILITY BY LATER
WED AFTN/EVENG AS NXT FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. HAVE 40% CHC
FOR TSTMS ACRS NW ZONES BY LATER WED AFTN/30% FARTHER SE. HIGHS
AGAIN UPPER 80S TO LWR 90S.
ON THU...MID LVL WAVE FLATTENS OUT AS IS TYPICAL FOR THIS TIME OF
YEAR...WHICH WOULD TEND TO ALLOW THE FRONT TO STALL/WEAKEN OVER
SOUTHERN VA/NC. HAVE AT LEAST 20-30% CHANCES FOR TSTMS THU
AFTN/EVENG FOR ALL EXCEPT THE FAR NORTHERN ZONES (WHERE SOMEWHAT
DRIER AIRMASS LOOKS TO TAKE HOLD).
&&
.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
FRONT PROGGED TO STALL OVR OUR SRN COUNTIES THU NIGHT. ADDED A
SLIGHT CHC -SHRA/TSRA TO SE VA/NE NC OVERNIGHT ON THU...BUT THINK
BETTER CHC FOR -SH/TSRA COMES IN THE AFTN THRU EVENING ON FRI WITH
THESE STALLED BNDRY TYPE SITUATIONS. PLENTY OF MSTR TO WORK
WITH...AND IF PATTERN HOLDS CUD SEE POPS INCREASED AS WE NEAR THE
END OF THE WEEK. GUIDANCE COMING WITH TEMPS A DEG OR TWO LOWER THAN
PREV RUNS. STILL LOOKING AT HIGHS IN UPR 80S TO LWR 90S FOR THE
EXTENDED PRD OF THE FORECAST. LOWS UPR 60S TO AROUND 70. WEAK HIGH
PRES BUILDS IN BREIFLY FOR THE WEEKEND...BUT HV MAINTAINED SLIGHT
CHC POPS TO ACCOUNT FOR ANY LATER AFTN/EVENING SUMMER TYPE
CONVECTION.
&&
.AVIATION /20Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
WITH A WEAK UPPER SYSTEM SLOWLY MOVING ACROSS THE AREA THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING WILL AGAIN SEE TSTMS DEVELOPING. RUC SHOWS
THE INITIAL CHANCE NEAR THE COAST WITH BEST MOISTURE CONVERGENCE
THERE INCLUDING THE PHF ORF AND ECG AIRPORTS. LATER TSTMS
POSSSIBLE COMING OFF THE MOUNTAINS INTO RIC. CONDITIONS COULD
LOWER TO IFR TO MVFR IN TSTMS. BY 06Z TSTMS ARE GONE AND CLOUDS
SHOULD SCATTER OUT WITH MAINLY VFR SOME MVFR FOG ESPECIALLY IN
THE W AND N. ANOTHER CHANCE OF TSTMS ON TUE AFTERNOON AND EVENING
WITH SOME MVFR IFR CONDITIONS. ANOTHER FRNT WILL BRING CHCS AGAIN
FOR PCPN/LWR CIGS/VSBYS LATER WED INTO ERLY THU.
&&
.MARINE...
PER 3 PM OBS OVER THE BAY AND COASTAL LOCATIONS IT APPEARS GUSTS
AROUND 20 KT ARE MAKING IT TO THE SURFACE. SO SCA FOR BAY AND
CURRITUCK SND WILL REMAIN INTACT THRU 4 AM.
TUE AFTN AND EVENING WATERS MAY SEE GUSTY WINDS MIX DOWN TO THE SFC
ONCE AGAIN. HV ALREADY PUT NRN TWO COASTAL MARINE ZONES IN A SCA FOR
TUE NIGHT FOR GUSTS TO 25 KT AND SEAS 4 TO 5 FT. CUD POSSIBLY SEE
THESE GUSTS TRANSLATE OVR CHES BAY...BUT WITH CURRENT SCA HEADLINE
IN PLACE FOR TONIGHT, WILL HOLD OFF ON ISSUING ATTM.
FLAGS MAY BE POSSIBLY ONCE AGAIN ON WED WITHAN APPROACHING COLD
FRONT WHICH WILL LIKELY STALL OVER THE WATERS THRU MID WEEK. NE...
