Area forecast discussion, Jun 19, 3:17 PM EST, 3 hours 8 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WAKEFIELD VA 417 PM EDT THU JUN 19 2008 .SYNOPSIS... WEAK SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH SATURDAY. A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE AREA ON SUNDAY...THEN STALL ALONG THE MID ATLANTIC COAST EARLY NEXT WEEK. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/... ISOLATED CONVECTION IS BEGINNING TO FIRE WITH THE PEAK HEATING COINCIDING WITH WEAK DYNAMICAL SUPPORT (FLAT UPPER TROUGH AND ASSCD WEAK SFC FRONT WITH SOME LEE SIDE ENHANCEMENT). COMPARED TO THE STORMS THAT DEVELOPED LATE YDAY EVENING...THERMODYNAMIC SUPPORT THIS GO AROUND IS RATHER MEAGER...WITH MUCAPES 1000 J/KG... 700-500 MB LAPSE RATES NEAR 6.5 C/KM...AND SFC DWPTS RATHER LOW NOW (MID 40S-MID 50S) GIVEN THE DOWNSLOPING LLVL FLOW ABV THE SFC LAYER. STILL...GIVEN THE INVERTED V PROFILE AT LOW LVLS PER LAPS/RUC SOUNDINGS...EXPECT LCLY GUSTY WINDS ASSCD WITH ANY SHOWERS/TSTMS THIS EVENING. ALSO KEPT THE SLGHT/ISOLD CHANCES IN ACROSS FAR N/NE PTNS OF THE FCST AREA LATER THIS EVENING (INCLUDING THE LOWER ERN SHORE) AS THE FRONTAL SUPPORT SHIFTS E THOUGH THE FCST AREA. COULD SEE THE RELATIVELY WARMER CHES BAY WATERS ONCE AGAIN PLAY A ROLE IN THE DEVELOPMENT LATER ON TONIGHT...ESPECIALLY FOLLOWING THE PEAK DIURNAL HEATING. LOWS TONIGHT ONCE AGAIN ON THE COMFY SIDE FOR LATE JUNE AROUND THESE PARTS...I.E. 55-60 OVER N-NW PTNS AND LOW- MID 60S FAR SERN SECTIONS. && .SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/... WEAK/FLAT UPPER RIDGING TOMORROW WILL ALLOW FOR MESOSCALE BOUNDARIES TO TAKE SHAPE (I.E. WEAK THERMAL TROUGHING ACROSS CSTL PLAIN). 950 MB OFFSHORE WIND COMPONENT (W/WSW 15KTS OR GREATER) WILL LIKELY INHIBIT INLAND PENETRATION OF SEA BREEZES ALONG THE ATLC COAST...HOWEVER STILL ANTICIPATE SOME ENHANCED ERLY COMPONENT TO THE WINDS (I.E. AT LEAST A SE FLOW) TO DEVELOP RIGHT ALONG THE COAST BY AFTN. FOR NOW...HAVE CONFINED LOW (20%) POPS TO PTNS OF NERN NC ONLY...WHERE MEAGER LLVL MSTR CONVERGENCE WOULD BE PRESENT NEAR THE LEE SIDE TROUGH/SEA BREEZE BOUNDARIES. ELSEWHERE... LLVL AIRMASS IS JUST TOO DRY TO SUPPORT ANY MENTION. BEST RAIN CHANCES WILL TAKE PLACE THIS WEEKEND AHEAD/ALONG NEXT COLD FRONT. AT THIS POINT IT APPEARS HIGHEST CHCS (>50% ALL AREAS) WILL OCCUR ON SUN AS A SRN STREAM SHORTWAVE LIFTS NE ALONG THE FRONT ACROSS THE MID ATLC REGION. STILL A LITTLE WHILE OUT YET...BUT THIS SYSTEM WILL BE OUR NEXT BEST CHANCE OF GETTING MUCH NEEDED... WIDESPREAD SOAKING RAINS (HALF INCH TO INCH OR GREATER). && .LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/... A COLD FRONT PUSHES OFF THE COAST MONDAY. THE ECMWF AND NOW THE GFS ARE INDICATING A DIGGING UPPER TROF ALONG THE MID ATLANTIC TUESDAY. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THE MODELS SHOWED THIS AND NOT SURE IF IT WILL EVOLVE INTO THAT. SO HELD THE CHANCES OF PRECIP LOW FOR NOW ON TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY. THEN DRIER LOOKING FOR THURSDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL BE NEAR NORMAL THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH SLOWLY RISING HEIGHTS IN THE LATTER PART OF THE PERIODS CAN SEE TEMPS MOVING UP ABOVE NORMAL. THIS WILL PUSH MAX TEMPERATURES AROUND 90 IN SOME AREAS. && .AVIATION /20Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... VFR CONDS ACROSS THE REGION WITH LARGE AREA OF CU DEVELOPING THIS AFTERNOON. SMOKE PLUMES HAVE NOT CAUSED ANY SIGNIFICANT VIS PROBLEMS TODAY AS WNDS HAVE BEEN GENERALLY FROM THE N-NE. INSTABILITY ALOFT MAY RESULT IN SOME WIDELY SCATTERED CB/TSTM DEVELOPMENT DURING THE EVENING. MOST LIKELY CHC FOR TSTMS ACROSS NRN VA AND THE DELMARVA. WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE DEVELOPMENT ELSEWHERE...ESPECIALLY ALONG THE COASTS WITH THE SEABREEZE. FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK EXPECT GENERALLY VFR CONDS...EXCEPT FOR REDUCED VSBYS FROM SMOKE AT TIMES ACROSS SE VA/NE NC. A STRONGER FRONT WILL MOVE THRU THE REGION THIS WEEKEND BRINGING THE CHC FOR SHRAS/TSTMS TO ALL LOCALES. && .MARINE... VERY DIFFICULT WIND DIRECTION FORECAST FOR TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY. ALL MODELS SHOW MAINLY W WINDS OVER WESTERN PART OF THE AREA. HOWEVER OVER THE E THE OCEAN EFFECTS PLAY A ROLE WITH WINDS TURNING TO SOUTHEAST AND SOUTH DURING EACH AFTERNOON AND EVENING. WINDS WILL BE IN THE 10 TO 15 KT RANGE OR LESS THROUGH FRIDAY WITH A LITTLE STRONGER DURING THE EVENINGS OVER THE BAY. BY FRIDAY EVENING WINDS BECOME MORE SW TO S WITH WIND SPEEDS 10 TO 15 KTS. MODELS AGREE ON WINDS BEING MAINLY FROM THE SW SATURDAY AND SUNDAY AND MAY INCREASE CLOSE TO SMALL CRAFT CONDITIONS ON SUNDAY. AFTER THE FRONT PASSES WINDS DECREASE AND MOVE BACK TO THE W ON MONDAY. && .AKQ WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... MD...NONE. NC...NONE. VA...NONE.
