.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
CONVECTION WILL PERSIST INTO THU NIGHT AS THE SFC COLD FRONT MOVES
TWD THE COAST AND OFFSHORE AFTER MIDNIGHT. LINGERING SHOWERS ARE
POSSIBLE NEAR THE COAST FRI MORNING...THEN THE UPPER TROUGH AXIS
WILL SWING THROUGH THE AREA FRI AFTN. ALTHOUGH MODELS ARE HINTING AT
A RELATIVELY DRY AIRMASS BEING IN PLACE BEHIND THE DEPARTING FRONT...
THERE SHOULD BE ENOUGH LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE PRESENT WITH PLENTY OF
INSTABILITY ALOFT TO PRODUCE LIGHT SHOWERS IN OPEN-CELLULAR
CONVECTION. THE UPPER TROUGH IS SLOW TO PASS OFFSHORE UNTIL EARLY
SAT MORNING...FOLLOWED BY SFC HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN FROM THE
NW ON SAT AND SLIDING TO THE SE (AND EVENTUALLY OFFSHORE) SUN INTO
SUN NIGHT. A ZONAL WEATHER PATTERN DEVELOPS IN THE MID AND UPPER
LEVELS LATE SUN INTO MON...WHICH IS EXPECTED TO BRING PRECIP BACK
INTO THE FORECAST ON MON.
&&
.AVIATION /20Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
INCREASING MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY THIS AFTERNOON HAVE RESULTED IN
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT.
CONDITIONS HAVE BEEN PREDOMINANTLY MVFR TO VFR...EXCEPT UNDER
STRONGER STORM CORES WHERE +RA IS CAUSING VSBYS TO DROP DOWN TO 2SM
OR LESS. SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL CONTINUE ACROSS
THE ENTIRE AREA THROUGH LATE EVENING. CEILINGS WILL REMAIN
BKN-OVC AT 1500-3000 FT AGL. GUSTY WINDS TO 33 KT ARE ALSO LIKELY
IN THE STRONGER STORMS.
FOLLOWING THE CONVECTION THIS EVENING...CIGS WILL DROP TO IFR
AROUND 11/0300Z AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING COLD FRONT. THE FRONT WILL
SLOWLY PUSH TOWARDS THE COAST OVERNIGHT BUT IS EXPECTED TO STALL
NEAR THE COAST ON TUE. HAVE NOT IMPROVED IFR CONDITIONS BEHIND
THE FRONT AS WINDS WITH THE FRONT ARE NOT VERY STRONG AND MAY NOT
BE ENOUGH TO OFFSET THE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE PRESENT. ANY IFR
CONDITIONS SHOULD IMPROVE BY 11/1500Z WITH MIXING AND DRIER
WESTERLY FLOW WELL BEHIND THE FRONTAL PASSAGE. EXPECT SCATTERED
SHOWERS AND STORMS TUE AFTERNOON...HOWEVER COVERAGE WILL BE MUCH
MORE LIMITED THAN TODAY.
UNSETTLED CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK AS
THE STALLED FRONT ON TUE RE-DEVELOPS INTO A LEE TROUGH THAT WILL
LINGER ALONG THE COAST INTO EARLY THU. A MORE ORGANIZED LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM WILL CROSS THE REGION THU NIGHT/FRI MORNING...THEN LIGHT
SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE FRI AFTN AS AN UPPER TROUGH AXIS SWINGS
THROUGH THE REGION. SFC HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE AREA FROM
THE NW LATE FRI NIGHT INTO SAT...SLIDING SE ON SUN INTO MON.
&&
.MARINE...
RELATIVELY CLEAR SKIES OVER THE WATERS LATE THIS MORNING INTO
EARLY AFTN WILL ALLOW STRONGER WINDS ALOFT TO MIX TO THE SFC. IN
ADDITION...CONVECTIVE SHOWERS PRODUCING HEAVY RAIN AND LOCALLY
STRONG WINDS WILL ALSO IMPACT THE WATERS THROUGH THIS EVENING
BEFORE DIMINISHING IN INTENSITY AFTER MIDNIGHT. AS A RESULT OF THE
ABOVE...SCA FLAGS HAVE NOW BEEN ISSUED FOR ALL AREA WATERS
THROUGH MIDNIGHT INTO TUE MORNING (DEPENDING ON MARINE ZONE).
WAVES WILL BUILD TO 3-4 FT ON CHES BAY AND SEAS WILL GENERALLY
BUILD TO 4-5 FT IN THE COASTAL WATERS. FOR COASTAL WATERS SOUTH
OF CAPE CHARLES...SEAS OF 5 FT WILL OCCUR CLOSER TO 20 NM. PLEASE
REFER TO THE COASTAL WATERS FORECAST OR MWWAKQ FOR FURTHER DETAILS.
SCA FLAGS FOR RIVERS/SOUND/SRN COASTAL WATERS WILL EXPIRE BY 7 AM
AND NRN COASTAL WATERS FLAGS WILL EXPIRE BY MID MORNING WHEN SEAS
ARE EXPECTED TO DROP BELOW 5 FT.
OTHERWISE...THE SFC COLD FRONT WILL LINGER ALONG THE COAST ON
TUE...KEEPING A CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE
WATERS THROUGH THE DAY. DRIER AIR MOVING INTO THE AREA BEHIND THE
FRONT TUE AFTN/EARLY EVENING MAY HELP TO MIX STRONGER WINDS TO THE
SFC...HOWEVER SPEEDS SHOULD GENERALLY BE AOB 15 KT FOR
BAY/SOUND/RIVERS AND AROUND 15-20 KT OVER COASTAL WATERS. ALTHOUGH
THE FRONT PUSHES OFFSHORE LATE TUE EVENING...A LEE TROUGH WILL
DEVELOP ON WED AND ALSO LINGER NEAR THE COAST INTO THU MORNING.
WINDS WILL BECOME WLY ON WED AND WED NIGHT AND REMAIN AOB 15 KT
OVER ALL WATERS.
A WEAK SHORTWAVE WILL CROSS THE STALLED FRONT WED NIGHT INTO THU
MORNING...PROVIDING JUST ENOUGH OF A FOCUSING MECHANISM FOR
THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT. A BETTER CHANCE FOR STRONG STORMS OCCURS
ON THU AS SFC LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM CROSSES THE WATERS THU AFTN
THROUGH LATE EVENING. HEAVY RAIN...STRONG WINDS AND POSSIBLY HAIL
ARE THE ANTICIPATED IMPACTS. SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE ALONG THE COAST
ON FRI AS THE SFC FRONT MOVES OFFSHORE AND IS FOLLOWED BY AN UPPER
TROUGH AXIS. DRYING NW FLOW IS ANTICIPATED TO DEVELOP FRI NIGHT AND
IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST THROUGH THE WEEKEND AS SFC HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS INTO THE REGION FROM THE NW SAT AND PUSHES SE ON SUN INTO
MON. A MORE PROGRESSIVE/ZONAL FLOW FORMS IN THE MID AND UPPER
LEVELS ON MON AND IS EXPECTED TO BRING PRECIP BACK INTO THE
FORECAST MON AFTN INTO THE EVENING.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
FLOOD WARNING IN EFFECT FOR NOTTOWAY AT SEBRELL. SEE FLSAKQ FOR
DETAILS. EXPECT SOME SPIKING OF LEVELS OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS
ACROSS ALL MAIN STEM RIVERS GIVEN THE PROJECTED RAINFALL. APPEARS
THE UPPER JAMES BASIN GOT A GOOD SOAKING ON SUNDAY. THAT RUNOFF MAY
EVENTUALLY PUSH THE LEVEL AT RICHMOND WESTHAM BACK TO NEAR FLOOD
STAGE.
