AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
110 PM EST WED FEB 29 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH TONIGHT. DRIER THURSDAY. REPEAT
SHOWING OF WARM/COLD FRONT COMBO FRIDAY INTO EARLY SATURDAY.
DRIER/COOLER AIR DEVELOPS ON SATURDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
COLD FRONT CURRENTLY MOVING INTO WESTERN OH AND CENTRAL KY...WITH AN
ABUNDANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AHEAD OF THE FRONT IN THE
WARM SECTOR. WE WILL CONTINUE TO SEE THESE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
MOVING THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...WITH STRONG TO SEVERE
STORMS POSSIBLE. HEAVY DOWNPOURS ARE ALSO POSSIBLE IN THE STRONGER
SHOWERS...INCREASING FLOODING CONCERNS.

FLASH FLOOD WATCH ISSUED...SEE HYDRO SECTION.

THINGS SHOULD QUIET DOWN AFTER THE COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH...WENT
WITH A MIX OF MAV/MET TONIGHT WITH TEMPERATURES COOLING INTO THE LOW
TO MID 40S ACROSS THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA BY MORNING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
NO BIG CHANGES FOR THIS PERIOD...AS OUR FAST PACE CONTINUES...WHICH
IS COMMON DURING LATE WINTER...AND THE MONTH OF MARCH.

SUBSIDENCE MID LEVEL INVERSION TRIES TO LOWER INTO THE 5 TO 10 THSD
FOOT RANGE ON THURSDAY...WITH MARGINAL 850 MB MOISTURE AT THE BASE
OF THE INVERSION.  COULD NOT RULE OUT SOME LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS IN THE
NORTH - BUT FELT OUR 20 POPS STILL APPEAR ON TARGET.

DRY THURSDAY NIGHT.  STILL THE POSSIBILITY OF SOME VALLEY FOG IN THE
SOUTHERN VALLEYS OF WV AND SOUTHWEST VIRGINIA...BUT HAVE NOT
INCLUDED YET.

WE REPEAT THE WARM/COLD FRONTAL COMBO AGAIN ON FRIDAY INTO EARLY
SATURDAY. COMPARED TO THE PRECIPITABLE WATER AROUND 1.3 FOR
TODAY...STILL THINKING A BIT LESS...AROUND AN INCH FOR FRIDAY NIGHTS
SYSTEM.  YET...WITH THE RESULT OF THE FIRST SYSTEM TODAY AND
TONIGHT...STILL A CONCERN.  WILL NOT INCLUDE IN THE HAZARDOUS
WEATHER OUTLOOK YET.  LETS DEAL WITH THE FIRST SYSTEM TODAY AND THIS
EVENING.

WAS SLIGHTLY FASTER REDUCING POPS FROM WEST TO EAST ON SATURDAY.
BASING THE FORECAST ON THE COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE AROUND 12Z FOR THE
CRW-CKB CORRIDOR...CROSSING MOUNTAINS AROUND 15Z SATURDAY. RIGHT NOW
THINKING ON THE ORDER OF .5 TO 1.0 IN OUR QPF FRIDAY AFTERNOON
THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT.

IN ITS WAKE...SOME ONLY SOME SLIGHT CHANCE POPS SATURDAY AFTERNOON
ALONG PBZ BORDER AND IN OUR MOUNTAINS...THEN SOME CHANCE POPS
DEVELOPING SATURDAY NIGHT FOR SOME LIGHT RAIN OR SNOW
SHOWERS...AGAIN IN THE NORTH AND MOUNTAINS.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
FRIDAY WILL BE DRY INITIALLY BUT CHANCES FOR PRECIP WILL INCREASE
DURING THE DAY AS A WARM FRONT LIFTS NORTHEAST ACROSS THE AREA.
SYSTEM LOOKS SIMILAR TO WEDNESDAY/S WITH A BRIEF LULL IN PRECIP
POSSIBLE BETWEEN WARM FRONT AND COLD FRONT OVERNIGHT. MODEL OUTPUT
CONTINUES TO DEPICT BEST INSTABILITY POST WARM FRONT LATE FRIDAY
WITH MUCAPES AROUND 1000J AND THUS WILL GO WITH CHANCE T-STORMS
BEGINNING 00Z FRI. INSTABILITY WILL DECREASE OVERNIGHT SAT BUT
ENOUGH WILL REMAIN TO CONTINUE CHANCE THUNDERSTORMS WITH GOOD
FRONTAL LIFT. QPF VALUES LOOK TO BE AROUND THE HALF-INCH TO
THREE-QUARTER INCH AND WITH ENOUGH FORWARD MOTION OF SYSTEM...WOULD
NORMALLY NOT EXPECT MAJOR WATER ISSUES ON ITS OWN MERIT.  BUT
AGAIN...WILL NEED TO MONITOR RAINFALL RECEIVED WITH WEDNESDAY/S
SYSTEM AS IT MAY NOT TAKE MUCH ADDITIONAL RAINFALL TO CREATE ISSUES.

COLD FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA FROM WEST TO EAST
EARLY SAT AND SHOULD BE NEAR THE EASTERN FORECAST AREA/S BORDER BY
12-15Z SAT. THIS MAKES LOW TEMPS SAT MORNING A BIT TRICKY AS TEMPS
MAY STAY ELEVATED MUCH OF THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD BEFORE DROPPING POST
FRONT NEAR SUNRISE.  HAVE TAKEN THIS APPROACH WITH THE CENTRAL PART
OF CWA. PRECIP SHOULD END BY 18Z ACROSS THE AREA EXCEPT MOUNTAIN
LOCATIONS WHERE WILL CONTINUE SLIGHT CHANCE POPS. BEYOND THIS PERIOD
MODEL OUTPUT BEGINS TO DIVERGE BUT WILL LEAN TOWARDS THE EC SOLUTION
WHICH DEPICTS A SECONDARY COLD PUSH SUNDAY WHICH RAMPS UP A
SHORTWAVE DIVING SOUTHEAST MOVING THROUGH THE MEAN NORTHWEST FLOW
ALOFT. AT THIS POINT IN TIME IT APPEARS THAT THE MAIN FORCING AND
MOISTURE WITH THIS SYSTEM WILL REMAIN TO THE SOUTH AND WEST OF
FORECAST AREA BUT CERTAINLY WARRANTS CONTINUED SLIGHT CHANCE/LOW
CHANCE POPS FOR THIS TIME PERIOD.

AFTER THIS SHORTWAVE EXITS...UPPER LEVEL RIDGING WILL BUILD INTO
AREA WITH DRY CONDITIONS TUESDAY WITH ONLY AN INCREASE IN HIGH-LEVEL
CLOUDS ON WEDNESDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
TWO BATCHES OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ONGOING ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA. ONE IS EXITING TO THE EAST AND ANY IMPACTS ON TAF SITES IS
QUICKLY DISSIPATING. THE NEXT IS AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT AND ALREADY
PUSHING THROUGH KHTS...AND APPROACHING KCRW AND KPKB. EXPECT MVFR
AND IFR CONDITIONS MOVING THROUGH WITH THESE SHOWERS...ALSO COULD
GET SOME STRONG WIND GUSTS AS THEY PASS THROUGH. UNTIL THE COLD
FRONT MOVES THROUGH WILL CONTINUE TO SEE SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS...WITH CIGS AND VSBYS STARTING TO IMPROVE FROM WEST TO
EAST LATE THIS EVENING AND TONIGHT.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 18Z THURSDAY...

FORECAST CONFIDENCE: MEDIUM.

ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: TIMING OF MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS IN THE SHOWERS

.HYDROLOGY...
WARM ADVECTION ELEVATED CONVECTION PRODUCED UP TO AN INCH RAINFALL
ACROSS NE WV COUNTIES OF CWA INCLUDING NORTHERN MOUNTAIN COUNTIES.
UPSHUR COUNTY HAS STREAMS UP...AND OVER POORLY DRAINED ROADS BUT NO
ROAD CLOSURES OR OTHER PROBLEMS.

LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS THAT PRODUCED SEVERE WEATHER ALONG THE LOWER
OHIO VALLEY EARLIER THIS MORNING AND CONTINUED TO DO SO ON ITS SW
END IN CENTRAL KY THROUGH LATE MORNING...WAS WEAKENING ON ITS NE END
ENTERING CWA.

THE REST OF THIS LINE NOW SEEMS TO BE CONGEALING INTO THE MAIN
EVENT...STRUNG OUT WNW-ENE AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT...THE WSW END
CLOSEST TO THE FRONT.  THIS MAY NOT ALLOW ANOTHER LINE TO FORM BUT
RATHER...BE THE MAIN EVENT ITSELF.

MANY STREAMS ACROSS NORTHERN WV ARE BANKFULL FROM THE EARLIER RAIN
AND THIS NEW BATCH AIMED RIGHT AT THAT LOCATION WILL CAUSE WATER
PROBLEMS.  ROLLED WITH FLASH FLOOD WATCH ON ACCOUNT OF LATE DAY
CONVECTIVE NATURE OF THE RAIN.

RFC HAS TORNADO ON COAL AND BELINGTON ON TYGART GOING TO ACTION
STAGE OTHERWISE NO RIVER PROBLEMS...THOUGH FCST STAGES HAVE COME UP
SEVERAL FT SINCE YESTERDAY.  SO THIS SHOULD BE MAINLY A SMALL STREAM
AND POOR DRAINAGE ISSUE.

PERSISTENT FLOOD TOOL DOES SHOW MODERATE TO HIGH THREAT N CNTRL WV
COUNTIES THIS AFTERNOON.  THE THREAT FADES AND THAN RE-EMERGES SAME
AREA LATE TODAY.
