AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BALTIMORE MD/WASHINGTON DC
1023 AM EDT MON MAR 22 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
A CLOSED UPPER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL SLOWLY MOVE TOWARD THE
AREA TODAY...CROSSING OVER THE REGION LATER TONIGHT. THE LOW WILL
INTENSIFY AS IT MOVES OFF TO OUR NORTHEAST TUESDAY AND HIGH
PRESSURE WILL RETURN FOR THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. A COLD FRONT WILL
APPROACH THE REGION LATE IN THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
A COMPLEX AND TIGHTLY-PACKED UPPER LOW MAKING IT/S ENTRANCE TO THE
MID ATLC TODAY. SCATTERED SHOWERS HAVE ALREADY MADE THEIR WAY THRU
THE AREA OVERNIGHT...ENOUGH TO WET THE GROUND. MORE OF THE SAME
FOR THE REST OF THE MORNING AND AFTN. EARLIER...THE OCCLUDED FRONT
DOWN ACROSS THE DEEP SOUTH/SRN APLCNS THAT KICKED-OFF THE LINE OF
CONVECTION HAD A PRONOUNCED BREAK IN THE LINE HAS BASICALLY LAID
OVER THE CWA. SINCE THEN...MORE A FEW ISOLATED AREAS OF CONVECTION
HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DEVELOP IN THESE GAPS AND STREAM QUICKLY NWD
OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF HRS.

THE MOIST CONVEYOR BELT HAS ALSO BEEN GATHERING AND ORGANIZING
ACROSS THE I-95 CORRIDOR OF ERN NC AND SRN VA THIS MORNING.
CURRENTLY...THE WRN EDGE HAS BEEN A CLUSTER OF EMBEDDED
CONVECTION WHICH HAS EFFICIENTLY PRODUCED A LARGE AREA OF
STRATIFORM PRECIP - COVERING THE AREA BETWEEN I-95 AND THE COAST.
THIS ACTIVITY CONTINUES TO MOVE SWIFTLY NWD AND WILL COVER THE ERN
HALF OF THE CWA BY THE NOON HR. THIS ACTIVITY WILL CONTINUE TO BE
A MIX OF WEAK CONVECTION AND MODERATE-HEAVY STRATIFORM RAIN. JUST
TO THE WEST AND NORTH OF THIS ACTIVITY IS A CLUSTER OF MORE
DISCRETE CELLS THAT ARE PRODUCING A FEW LIGHTNING STRIKES AND EVEN
SOME SMALL HAIL POSSIBLE W/ COOLING TEMPS ALOFT.

SELY ONSHORE FLOW WILL KEEP THE AREA MOIST AND LOCALES THAT ARE
ABLE TO WARM-UP INTO THE L70S WILL SEE THE HIGHEST INSTABILITY
VALUES - ON THE ORDER OF A FEW HUNDRED J/KG OF CAPE. OVERALL
THOUGH...THE NEARLY SATURATED COLUMN NOT CONDUCIVE FOR MUCH MORE
THAN WEAK AND ISOLATED UPDRAFTS. WIND SHEAR ABOUT THE ONLY DECENT
CONVECTIVE PARAMETER...W/ A 30-40KT BOUNDARY LAYER JET MAX MOVING
UP THE ERN SEABOARD. THIS FEATURE WILL MINIMIZE STORM-TOTAL
RAINFALL...AS EVEN THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL NOT EXPECTED TO REMAIN
OVER ONE AREA FOR TOO LONG.

PREV DISC... /THIS EVENING/...
THE COLD FRONT WILL SLOWLY MOVE THROUGH NORTHEASTERN MARYLAND
THIS EVENING. THERE WILL BE ENOUGH SUBSIDENCE BEHIND THE COLD
FRONT FOR DRY CONDITIONS ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PORTIONS
OF THE CWA. HOWEVER...THE UPPER- LEVEL LOW ASSOCIATED WITH THIS
SYSTEM WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION OVERNIGHT. THIS WILL BRING THE
SLIGHT CHANCE FOR SHOWERS...BUT ANY RAINFALL WILL BE LIGHT AND
MUCH OF THE TIME WILL TURN OUT DRY DUE TO A LACK OF INSTABILITY AT
NIGHT.

AN UPSLOPE COMPONENT TO THE LOW-LEVEL FLOW WILL BRING A BETTER
CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION FOR LOCATIONS ALONG AND WEST OF THE
ALLEGHENY FRONT TONIGHT. THERE WILL BE ENOUGH COLD AIR ASSOCIATED
WITH THE UPPER-LEVEL LOW FOR SNOW SHOWERS TO MIX IN MAINLY FOR
ELEVATIONS ABOVE 3KFT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
UPR LOW PASSING BY /EITHER OHD OR JUST S OF CWFA/ TUE. WITH IT COMES
THE RISK OF LAPSE RATE INDUCED SHRA. IN THIS CASE...H8 TEMPS/H10-5
TKNS/H10-8 TKNS ALL COLD ENUF TO SUPPORT SHSN IN THE MTNS IN THE
MRNG...WHICH IS WHEN H5 LOW CLOSEST. NOT QUITE SURE IF BLYR TEMPS WL
GO ALNG. FCST DOES INCL A SHRASN MIX FOR THE WRN FRINGE. THRAFTR...
ALTHO DIURNAL EFFECTS TYPICALLY WUD STEEPEN LAPSE RATES...THE LOWS
FWD PROGRESS TAKES HIEST RISK AREA TO THE ERN SHORE AND BYD. WNDS
TURN WLY...AND DWNSLOPING/DRYING WL TAKE PLACE. FOR THAT REASON...
POPS WL BE REDUCED DURING THE AFTN...AND EVEN ALLWD FOR A BIT OF
CLRG. THE XCPTN TO THIS WL BE THE WRN SLOPES OF THE APPLCHNS...WHERE
SUCH FLOW MEANS UPSLP CONDS. INCRD POPS TO CAT /DEF/ THERE...BUT
KEPT WX AS SHRA. THAT CUD BE A STRETCH...SINCE IT/LL BE CAA ONGOING.
NEXT 12-24 HRS WL BE KEY. FOR THAT MATTER...DONT XPCT MUCH
COMPRESSIONAL WARMING ANYWHERE...AS WE/LL BE W/IN THE THERMAL TROF.
DESPITE SPREAD IN POP FCST...MAXT DEPICTS LTL DISPARITY. MDL BLEND
ACCEPTED...WHICH GNLY REFLECTS MAXT IN THE 50S.

BLDG HIPRES WL BE MAIN FEATURE TUE NGT THRU WED NGT. LWRG SUBSIDENCE
INVSN WL SQUELCH UPSLP PCPN...BUT NOT BEFORE A MIX RTNS TUE EVE.
POPS IN THIS PD JUST CHC...AND RAPIDLY DECREASING. CLDS WL ALSO BE
DECREASING TUE NGT...AS DRIER AIR ADVECTS IN ON INCRSG WLY WNDS
/10-15 KT SUSTAINED/. THE WNDS WL BE THE MOST NOTABLE FEATURE FOR
WED TOO.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
DID NOT MAKE CHGS TO THE XTNDD FCST. PRIMARY PLAYERS WL BE CDFNT
DROPPING ACRS THE GRTLKS AND APPCHG LOPRES ALNG THIS BNDRY FM THE
SRN PLAINS/LWR MS VLY. PD OF IMPACT WL BE THU NGT AND FRI. FM THIS
STANDPT...THE NXT SYSTEM APPEARS WEAKER AND MORE PROGRESSIVE THAN
THE CRRNT ONE. OF COURSE...THERE/S STILL ROOM FOR GDNC ADJUSTMENTS
BTWN NOW AND THEN.

&&

.AVIATION /14Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND TSTMS WILL CONTINUE THRU MUCH OF THE DAYTIME
HRS. THE HIGHLIGHTED TIMES FOR ACTIVITY ACROSS THE DC/BALT METRO
AREA TAF SITES IS ACTUALLY VERY SOON /14-18Z/. CLUSTERS OF WEAK
TSTMS NOW MOVING UP THE I-95 CORRIDOR /AND E OF THE BLUE RIDGE/
TOWARD METRO DC AT THIS HR. AFTER 11AM...STEADY RAINFALL AND A FEW
BRIEF TSRA WILL AFFECT THE METRO AREAS AND BALT AT LEAST AN HR
LATER. THIS WILL CONTINUE JUST INTO EARLY AFTN...W/ MORE BREAKS IN
THE ACTIVITY AFT 18Z. AFTERWHICH...STILL A CHANCE OF MORE ISOLATED
SHOWERS AND STORMS THRU THE LATE AFTN...JUST AHEAD OF THE COLD
FRONT.

CIGS/VSBYS WILL IMPROVE THIS AFTERNOON...BUT IFR CONDITIONS ARE
STILL POSSIBLE IN HEAVIER SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. A SOUTHEAST
FLOW WILL INCREASE LATER THIS MORNING AND AFTERNOON WITH GUSTS
AROUND 20 KNOTS.

CIGS/VSBYS WILL IMPROVE TO VFR TONIGHT. LCL MVFR PSBL TMRW INVOF
SHRA IN RESPOSE TO UPR LOW...PARTICULARLY IN THE MRNG. AFTR
THAT...NO FLGT RESTIRCTIONS XPCTD TIL END OF WK.

.MARINE...
SOUTHEASTERLY WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE THIS MORNING AHEAD OF
THE COLD FRONT. WIND GUSTS AROUND 20 TO 30 KNOTS ARE EXPECTED LATER
THIS MORNING INTO THIS AFTERNOON. THE STRONGEST WINDS WILL BE ACROSS
THE LOWER PORTION OF THE CHESAPEAKE BAY AND LOWER TIDAL POTOMAC.
WILL CONTINUE WITH THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY STARTING AT 13Z AND
LASTING INTO THIS EVENING. WINDS WILL DIMINISH BEHIND THE COLD FRONT
TONIGHT...BUT GUSTS AROUND 15 KNOTS ARE STILL EXPECTED ACROSS THE
CHESAPEAKE BAY AND LOWER TIDAL POTOMAC OVERNIGHT.

SHUD BE A RELATIVE LULL TUE AS UPR LOW PASSES BY WATERS. IN ITS
WAKE...WLY WNDS WL BECOME WLY AND INCR. SCA ANTICIPATED TUE NGT
AND WED FOR 20-25 KT W/IN MEAN MIXED LYR.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
WATER LEVELS REMAIN ABOUT HALF TO A FOOT ABOVE ASTRONOMICAL
PREDICTIONS ATTM. AS LOPRES APPCHS WATERS TDA...WL HV A PD OF SE
WNDS GUSTING UP TO 20-25 KT /DURING THE AFTN-EVENING HRS/. THAT
POSES A CONCERN AS WATER CUD GET PILED INTO BAY/PTMC. TWO THINGS
HELP OUT-- IT/LL BE A NEAP TIDE...AND THE HIER OF THE TWO TIDES
COMES AT MIDDAY BEFORE ANOMOLIES HV A CHC AT BLDG APPRECIABLY.
GDNC SUGGESTING THE CYCLE MIDDAY TMRW WL ACTUALLY BE THE HIEST TTL
TIDE...BUT THAT/LL BE WHEN WNDS TURN ARND TO THE W. IN THE END...A
FEW SITES MAY APPROACH MINOR THRESHOLDS. WL CONT TO MONITOR.
