Heavy Rain in Virginia, July 29, 2010

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WAKEFIELD VA
529 PM EDT THU JUL 29 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL DROP SOUTH ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH TONIGHT.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE MID ATLANTIC REGION FROM THE
NORTH FRIDAY AND SATURDAY...THEN BECOME CENTERED OFF THE SOUTHERN
NEW ENGLAND COAST SATURDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
SURFACE COLD FRONT IS CURRENTLY MOVING INTO NORTHERN VA/CENTRAL
MD. ALONG/AHEAD OF THE FRONT...SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO
DEVELOP AND PUSH SOUTHEASTWARD FROM NORTHERN VA EASTWARD TO THE
LOWER EASTERN SHORE. A LARGE PORTION OF OUR AREA...CENTRAL VA TO
THE LOWER EASTERN SHORE REMAINS IN A SVR TSTM WATCH UNTIL 7PM. AS
THE FRONT CONTINUES TO PROGRESS SOUTHWARD THROUGH THIS
EVENING...WILL SEE A LARGER CONCENTRATION OF TSTMS DEVELOP
SOUTHWARD INTO OUR CWA. SO FAR CONVECTION LOOKS LIKE IT WILL BE
MOST PRONOUNCED EAST OF THE I-95 CORRIDOR...WITH RICHMOND AND
POINTS SOUTHWEST OF KRIC BEING IN THE RIP-OFF ZONE DUE TO MORE OF
A DOWNSLOPE COMPONENT TO THE LOW-LEVEL FLOW. THERE IS PLENTY OF
LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE/INSTABILITY IN PLACE ACROSS THE REGION THIS
AFTERNOON/EVENING WHICH WILL ALLOW TSTMS TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP
ALMOST ANYWHERE. HOWEVER...THE BEST OPPORTUNITY FOR SEVERE WX WILL
REMAIN OVER OUR NORTHERN ZONES INTO THE LOWER EASTERN SHORE WHERE
DYNAMICS ARE BETTER IN VICINITY OF THE COLD FRONT. HAVE HIGHEST
POPS THROUGH SUNSET FROM THE NORTHERN/MIDDLE PENINSULA EASTWARD
INTO THE LOWER EASTERN SHORE...THEN ACROSS ALL OF EASTERN
VA/NORTHEAST NC BETWEEN 00Z-06Z FRI AS THE FRONT PASSES.

THE COLD FRONT WILL PUSH WELL SOUTH OF OUR CWA BY 12Z FRI. BASED
ON THE LATEST MODEL PROJECTIONS HAVE CONTINUED TO LINGER POPS OVER
E/SE AREAS (ESPECIALLY THROUGH 06Z). EXPECTING QUICK CLEARING
BEHIND THE FRONT LATE TONIGHT/EARLY FRI AM AS THE HIGH BUILDS IN
FROM THE OH VLY. LOWS TONIGHT WILL BE IN THE MID-60S IN THE
EASTERN PIEDMONT TO MID-70S IN SE VA/NE NC.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH SUNDAY/...
FRIDAY...
HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE REGION WILL ALLOW FOR DRY WEATHER...EXCEPT
FOR MAYBE A STRAY SEABREEZE INDUCED SHWR/TSTM OVER NE NC. NOT TOO
CONFIDENT ABOUT THAT POSSIBILITY...SO HAVE ONLY GHOSTS POPS
(<15%). HIGH TEMPS WILL DROP BACK SLIGHTLY INTO THE 80S TO NR 90
ON FRIDAY AS MODEL THICKNESSES LOWER IN THE WAKE OF THE COLD
FRONT.

SATURDAY...
HIGH PRESSURE SLIDES EASTWARD OFF THE MID-ATLANTIC
COAST BY LATE IN THE DAY. WITH THE HIGH TO OUR EAST...THE
LOW-LEVEL FLOW WILL TURN MORE TO THE SOUTH...EXCEPT REMAINING E OR
SE AT THE COAST. THIS WILL USHER SOME MOISTURE/CLOUDS UP FROM THE
CAROLINAS...PARTICULARLY INTO OUR WESTERN ZONES NEAREST THE
MTNS/FOOTHILLS. AT THIS POINT...IT APPEARS ANY TSTMS THAT DEVELOP
WILL REMAIN CONFINED TO THE MTNS/FOOTHILLS AND THUS HAVE ONLY ISOLATED
POPS IN THE AFTERNOON ACROSS OUR EXTREME WESTERN COUNTIES. WHAT WE WILL
SEE IS AN INCREASE IN CLOUD COVER THROUGH THE DAY. HIGHS WILL BE
IN THE UPPER 80S/LOW 90S.

SUNDAY...
MODELS SHOW A SHORTWAVE TROUGH PASSING THROUGH THE MID-ATLANTIC
REGION ON SUNDAY...WITH A FAIRLY DECENT MOISTURE TAP FROM THE
SOUTH. MODELS ARE PICKING UP ON A GOOD POSSIBILITY OF SHRS/TSTMS
THAT DAY...BUT DO NOT WON'T TO GO OVERBOARD ATTM. HAVE CONTINUED
WITH SOLID CHC POPS (30-40%) ALL AREAS ON SUNDAY. TEMPS WERE ALSO HELD
BELOW 90 DEGREES ALL AREAS DUE TO THE EXCESSIVE CLOUD COVER AND
GOOD CHANCE OF PRECIP.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
LATEST 12Z RUNS OF THE GFS/ECMWF COMING INTO BETTER AGREEMENT WITH
THE MID LVL PATTERN...ECMWF STILL SLIGHTLY MORE CONTINUING TO BE
SOMEWHAT MORE AMPLIFIED BUT BOTH MODELS SHOW A TROUGH OF MODERATE
STRENGTH MOVING THROUGH THE NE STATES/MID ATLC SUN NGT/ERLY
MONDAY...AND WELL OFF THE COAST LATE MON/TUE. WILL CONTINUE FAIRLY
HIGH POPS (40%) SUN NGT ALL AREAS WITH FAIRLY DEEP MSTR SEEN IN
THE MODELS TSECTIONS AND COOL AIR ALOFT. SHOULD SEE HIGHER POPS
CONFINED FARTHER E ON MON...AND THEN DRY ALL AREAS BY MON EVENING
AS DRIER AIR FILTERS IN FROM THE N IN RESPONSE TO SFC HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDING IN. HIGH TEMPS MON STAY FAIRLY COOL COMPARED TO
WHAT HAS BEEN EXPERIENCED THUS FAR THIS SUMMER...(MAINLY MID-UPR
80S TO ARND 90).

EXPECT TO SEE A WARMING TREND TUE-WED WITH HIGHS BACK INTO AT
LEAST THE LWR 90S OVER THE INTERIOR AND UPR 80S AT THE COAST ALONG
WITH MAINLY DRY CONDITIONS (SCHC AFTN TSTMS BY WED). NEXT FRONT
LOOKS TO MOVE THRU THU...WILL CARRY 20-30% POPS ALL ZONES AND
HIGHS MAINLY 90-95 AND LOWS 70-75.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
CURRENTLY VFR AT ALL TAF SITES. AS COLD FRONT NEARS EXPECT
THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP NORTH AND WEST THEN MOVE TO THE SOUTH AND
EAST. THUNDERSTORMS THAT IMPACT TAF SITES COULD BRINGS STRONG
WINDS...HEAVY RAIN...AND LOWERED CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES.
CONDITIONS COULD APPROACH MVFR OR IFR IN STRONGER STORMS.

THE COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO PASS THROUGH THE AREA LATE THIS
EVENING SHIFTING THE WINDS FROM THE SW TO THE N. FOG COULD BE AN
ISSUE FRIDAY MORNING IF ANY TAF SITES RECEIVE RAIN TODAY AND HAVE
LIGHT/CALM WINDS OVERNIGHT. VFR CONDITIONS WILL EXIST AS HIGH
PRESSURE TAKES OVER ON FRIDAY. ANOTHER SYSTEM COULD IMPACT THE AREA
SATURDAY NIGHT.

&&

.MARINE...
SCTD TSTMS WILL BRING LOCALLY HIGHER WINDS THIS EVENING...BUT
SYNOPTICALLY THE MAIN ISSUE IN NEAR TERM WILL BE A COLD FRONT
MOVING THROUGH LATER TONIGHT...AND CAA SURGE FRI MRNG. HAVE RAISED
SCA FOR THE BAY/SND AND CSTL WTRS S OF CAPE CHARLES LGT FRI MRNG
(LINGERING THE FLAGS THE LONGEST OVER THE CSTL WATERS DUE TO 5 FT
SEAS). BEYOND THIS...A FAIRLY QUIET PATTERN FRI NGT INTO SAT...AS
SFC HI BLDS OVR THE NE STATES/NEAR MID ATLC. MORE UNCERTAIN FOR
SUN/MON AND MODELS SEEM TO BE NARROWING IN ON A SOLN THAT DEPICTS
SFC HI OFF THE NEW ENGLAND CST...AND AT LEAST A TROF OF LO PRES
MOVNG INTO AND ACRS THE AREA...RESULTING IN E OR SE FLO AROUND 15
KT (KEEPING SEAS 3-4 FT/ A BIT ABOVE WAVEWATCH SUN-MON W/ THE ELY
FLOW).
