AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WAKEFIELD VA 704 PM EDT MON JUL 14 2014 .SYNOPSIS... A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY AND TOWARD THE MID ATLANTIC REGION TONIGHT INTO TUESDAY MORNING. THE FRONT WILL THEN SLOWLY PUSH ACROSS THE AREA TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH MIDDAY WEDNESDAY...THEN SLIDES OUT TO SEA WEDNESDAY NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE REGION THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM TUESDAY MORNING/... SCTD SHOWERS AND TSTMS DEVELOPING OVR WRN/CNTRL VA AND NC THIS AFTN WERE THE RESULT OF A COMBINATION OF A LEE SIDE TROF AND MODERATE INSTABILITY (LI'S -5/-6 AND MLCAPE 1500-2000 J/KG). STRONGEST ACTIVITY WILL LIKELY REMAIN NNW OF AKQ CWA THRU THIS EVENG...WHERE BETTER SHEAR AND SHRTWV ENERGY/DYNAMICS ARE FCST. WILL HAVE HIGHEST POPS (40-50%) ACRS THE NRN HALF OF THE REGION TNGT...WITH POPS DECREASING TO 30-20% EXTRM SE VA AND NE NC. ANY STORMS THAT DO OCCUR OVR THE AREA TNGT...COULD CONTAIN STRONG GUSTY WINDS AND BRIEF HEAVY DOWNPOURS. OTHERWISE...PARTLY CLOUDY WARM AND HUMID WITH MIN TEMPS 70-75. && .SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY/... TUE THRU WED...UPR TROF OVR THE GREAT LAKES/OH VALLEY DIGS SSE TWD THE MID ATLC REGION. THIS WILL HELP PUSH THE COLD FRONT ACRS THE REGION TO THE CST TUE AFTN INTO WED MORNG. MODERATE INSTABILITY COMBINED WITH BETTER DYNAMICS...AND BETTER SHEAR (INCLUDING RRQ FORCING FM THE UPPER JET)...WILL RESULT IN LIKELY POPS FOR SHOWERS AND TSTMS ACRS THE AREA. SEVERE POTENTIAL EXISTS (MAINLY STRAIGHT LINE WIND THREAT) TUE AFTN/EVENG...AS DEEP LAYER SHEAR VALUES INCREASE TO >30 KT (NOT BAD FOR TIME OF YEAR). THE SEVERE THREAT WILL THEN LIKELY TRANSITION TO MAINLY A HEAVY RAIN THREAT TUE NGT INTO EARLY WED MORNG...AS THE COLD FRONT SLOWLY MOVES TO THE CST. BEST CHANCE OF SEVERE TSTMS ON TUE (SLIGHT RISK BY SPC) WILL BE FM ARND I95 EWRD TO THE CST...WHERE THE BEST BUOYANCY/INSTABILITY WILL BE LOCATED ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT. LOCALIZED FLOODING MAY ALSO BE AN ISSUE...AND MAY PERSIST TUE NGT INTO WED MORNG GIVEN THE SLOW MOVEMENT OF THE FRONT...STRONG FORCING FOR ASCENT...AND PW'S IN EXCESS OF 2 INCHES. WILL CONTINUE TO HIGHLIGHT THESE THREATS IN THE HWO. MAX TEMPS ON TUE WILL RANGE FM THE MID 80S TO LWR 90S. LOWS TUE NGT WILL RANGE FM THE MID 60S TO LWR 70S. DURING WED...POPS WILL DECREASE FM WNW TO ESE AS THE COLD FRONT GRADUALLY SLIDES OFF THE CST. LO LEVEL FLOW SHIFTS TO THE N-NE BEHIND THE FRONT WITH A DRIER/NOT AS WARM AIRMASS EVENTUALLY OVERSPREADING THE REGION FM THE W/NW. INCREASING SUNSHINE FM W TO E DURING WED...WITH HIGHS IN THE LWR TO MID 80S. HI PRES THEN BLDS INTO AND OVR THE AREA WED NGT THRU THU. LOWS WED NGT RANGING FM THE UPR 50S TO THE UPR 60S. HIGHS ON THU IN THE LWR TO MID 80S. && .LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/... MEDIUM RANGE FORECAST PERIOD BEGINS WITH COLD FRONT ORIENTED OFFSHORE, AND SFC HIGH PRESSURE BEHIND THE FRONT IN PLACE OVER THE AREA FRIDAY MORNING. THIS SHOULD ADD UP TO A DRY, PLEASANT DAY ON FRIDAY WITH LOW LEVEL EASTERLY FLOW. HOWEVER, THIS PERIOD OF BENIGN WX WL BE SHORT LIVED. A MAJORITY OF MEDIUM RANGE MODEL GUIDANCE DEPICT SHORTWAVE ENERGY ROUNDING THE BASE OF THE SECOND UPPER LEVEL TROUGH (IN PLACE ACROSS THE PAC NW THIS AFTN) WHICH WILL CROSS THE CENTRAL/SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS MIDWEEK, AND WILL BE OVER THE MID-SOUTH BY FRIDAY MORNING. THIS WILL ALLOW THE FRONT TO GET PULLED BACK NORTH AS A WARM FRONT OVER THE WEEKEND. WL LIKELY SEE RAIN CHANCES SLOWLY KICK BACK UP INCREMENTALLY LATE FRIDAY AND OVER THE WEEKEND AS WEAK DISTURBANCES MOVE ALONG THE WAVY FRONT TO OUR SOUTHEAST. STILL SOME TEMPORAL/SPATIAL DIFFERENCES TO IRON OUT, AS IS TYPICAL THIS FAR OUT, SO TRIED TO KEEP IT SOMEWHAT GENERAL FOR NOW. LOW (SLIGHT CHC) POPS FRIDAY NIGHT AND EARLY SATURDAY AS INITIAL WAVE PUSHES ACROSS...WITH HIGHER, MORE WIDESPREAD HIGH END CHC (40%) POP SATURDAY AS THE UPPER TROUGH AXIS PUSHES ACROSS. TAILED POPS OFF SOME INLAND ON SUNDAY, WITH HIGHEST POP/BEST CHC ACROSS THE SE WITH SOME REMNANT INSTABILITY PUSHING ACROSS THE COASTAL PLAIN AND OFFSHORE OF THE COASTAL CAROLINAS. AS FOR TEMPS, EXPECT MAXIMA TO AVERAGE AROUND -1 S.D. BELOW NORMAL OVER THE PERIOD. HIGHS IN THE LOW TO MID 80S INLAND FRI-SUN, WITH SOME WARMING EARLY NEXT WEEK AS SFC HIGH SLIDES OFFSHORE WITH RETURN FLOW AND A MORE TYPICAL SUMMERTIME SETUP LOOKING TO TAKE HOLD BY LATE IN THE PERIOD. EARLY MORNING LOWS WILL SETTLE INTO THE 60S TO NEAR 70 ALONG THE COAST. && .AVIATION /00Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/... SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST WILL CONTINUE TO PRODUCE S/SW WINDS THROUGH TUESDAY. VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED TO PREVAIL THROUGH THE NEXT 24 HOURS. ALTHOUGH AN ISOLATED TSTM CANNOT BE RULED OUT AT KRIC/KSBY...NOT ENOUGH CONFIDENCE IN TIMING/LOCATION OF ANY TSTMS LATER THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING TO PLACE IN TAFS. A COLD FRONT ARRIVES FROM THE WEST TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR MORE WIDESPREAD SHWRS/TSTMS. THE FRONT SLOWLY MOVES OFFSHORE WEDNESDAY...WITH DRIER AIR PREVAILING THROUGH FRIDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS NORTH OF THE REGION. && .MARINE... LATEST OBS REFLECT A GENERAL S-SW FLOW OVER THE WATERS AROUND 15KT SOUTH, 15-20 KT NORTH OF CAPE CHARLES A RESULT OF THE TIGHTENING PRES GRADIENT BETWEEN INLAND LEE TROUGH AND HIGH PRESSURE ANCHORED OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST. LOW PRESSURE OVER THE OHIO VALLEY WILL LIFT N OVER THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES LATE TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY...WITH THE TRAILING COLD FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE NW THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT...AND SLOWLY CROSSING THE AREA LATE TUESDAY NIGHT. HIGH RES MODELS INDICATING A NARROW WINDOW FOR BORDERLINE SCA OVER THE BAY THROUGH ABOUT MIDNIGHT OR SO. LATEST OBS INDICATE WINDS JUST UNDER SCA, SO WILL CONTINUE TO CAP AT 15 KT FOR THE 23Z CWF. MARINERS SHOULD BE AWARE OF POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAINFALL AND DANGEROUS LIGHTNING IN ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCT CONVECTION THIS EVENING, WITH MORE WIDESPREAD WIND/HVY RAIN/LIGHTNING EXPECTED TOMORROW AFTN/EVENING INTO EARLY WED. S-SW FLOW PERSISTS TOMORROW THROUGH EARLY WED AS PRES GRADIENT REMAINS COMPRESSED BETWEEN THE FRONT/PREFRONTAL TROUGH AND THE SFC HIGH OFFSHORE. WAVEWATCH IS ONCE AGAIN RUNNING A BIT HIGH IN PREFRONTAL SOUTHERLY FLOW, SO WL CONTINUE TO UNDERCUT WAVEWATCH AND KEPT SEAS IN THE 3-4 FT RANGE (2-3 BAY/SND) AS PER NWPS/SWAN. FRONT PUSHES ACROSS ON WEDNESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT, WITH A WIND SHIFT TO N IS EXPECTED QUICKLY BEHIND THE FRONTAL PASSAGE. MAY SEE A MODEST/SHORT LIVED NORTHERLY SURGE OVER THE BAY WEDNESDAY MORNING AS COOLER AIR FILTERS IN FROM THE NW, THOUGH SHOULD REMAIN PREDOMINATELY SUB-SCA. HIGH PRESSURE THEN BUILDS N OF THE REGION THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK AS WEAK LOW PRESSURE LINGERS OVER THE SOUTHEAST. THIS WILL MAINTAIN LIGHT ONSHORE (EAST-SOUTHEAST) FLOW ~10KT. && .AKQ WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... MD...NONE. NC...NONE. VA...NONE.
