AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WAKEFIELD VA
434 PM EDT TUE JUN 17 2014
.SYNOPSIS...
HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH THURSDAY WITH
THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE EACH AFTERNOON AND EVENING. A MORE DEFINED
FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS EXPECTED TO SAG SOUTHWARD INTO THE MID
ATLANTIC REGION THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY AND STALL ACROSS THE
AREA THROUGH THE UPCOMING WEEKEND...INCREASING THUNDERSTORM
CHANCES EACH DAY DURING THIS TIMEFRAME.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
IT DOES NOT APPEAR AS IF RECORD HIGHS WILL BE MET FOR TODAY.
HOWEVER...THE CLIMATE SECTION BELOW WILL BE UPDATED LATER THIS
EVENING ONCE HIGH TEMPS HAVE BEEN ACHIEVED AND FINAL READINGS OF
THE DAY HAVE BEEN DETERMINED.
FOR THE REST OF THIS EVENING...
ONCE AGAIN A NARROW BAND OF ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS
HAVE DEVELOPED JUST NORTH OF A LINE FROM FRANKLIN TO EMPORIA TO
SOUTH HILL AND THE WRN MECKLENBURG/LUNENBURG COUNTY LINE. A SECOND
AREA TO WATCH WILL BE ALONG SEABREEZE BOUNDARIES FROM CHES BAY AND
THE ATLANTIC OCEAN...ESPECIALLY IN FAR SE VA/NE NC. VERY STRONG
UPDRAFTS WILL ACCOMPANY THESE AIRMASS THUNDERSTORMS AND WILL
LIKELY PRODUCE BRIEF PERIODS OF GUSTY WINDS...SMALL HAIL (PEA TO
PENNY SIZED) AND DANGEROUS CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING. A FEW STORMS
MAY BECOME SEVERE WITH LARGE HAIL (ONE INCH OR LARGER IN DIAMETER)
AND WINDS IN EXCESS OF 58 MPH. STEERING FLOW ALOFT IS ALL OF
5-15 KT AT BEST...THEREFORE ANY STORMS THAT DEVELOP WILL BE SLOW
TO DRIFT SWD OVER TIME. VERY SIMILAR TO MONDAY EVENING...CONVECTION
IS LIKELY TO DISSIPATE AROUND SUNSET WITH THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING.
SLIGHTLY WARMER 850 TEMPS TONIGHT SHOULD YIELD WARMER OVERNIGHT LOWS
OF 71-75 DEGREES MOST LOCATIONS. DEWPOINTS IN THE UPPER 60S TO LOWER
70S WILL CONTINUE MUGGY CONDITIONS. HAZE...RATHER THAN FOG...WILL BE
A FACTOR TO THOSE WITH AVIATION AND MARINE CONCERNS LATE TONIGHT
INTO WED MORNING AS VISIBILITIES DROP TO AROUND 5 MILES.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY/...
A WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY/PSEUDO-LEE TROUGH STALLS OVER THE AREA WED...
STRETCHING FROM THE DELMARVA TO SE VA TO THE NC COASTAL PLAIN.
PERSISTENT MID-UPPER LEVEL RIDGING OVER THE SE CONUS AND THE
PRESENCE OF DRY AIR ALOFT WILL CONTINUE TO SQUASH WIDESPREAD
PRECIP CHANCES FOR THE DAY. HOWEVER WITH A HOT...HUMID...AND
UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT IN PLACE...CANNOT RULE OUT ANOTHER ROUND OF
AIRMASS THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPMENT DURING THE AFTN/EVENING HOURS
(MOST LIKELY ALONG THE TROUGH AXIS AS WELL AS ANY SEABREEZE
BOUNDARIES PRESENT). ONCE AGAIN LIGHT WINDS THROUGH THE COLUMN
SHOULD RESULT IN VERY LITTLE STORM MOTION AND IT IS POSSIBLE THAT
MOST STORMS SHOULD RAIN THEMSELVES OUT AND THEN REDEVELOP CLOSE
BY. AS PER THE PREVIOUS TWO EVENING...SOME STORMS MAY BECOME
STRONG TO SEVERE AND MAY BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING LOCALLY GUSTY
WINDS...HAIL...AND DANGEROUS CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING. WILL CARRY
A BASELINE 20 PERCENT POP SINCE IT WILL BE DIFFICULT TO NAIL DOWN
EXACT PLACEMENT AND TIMING OF POTENTIAL STORMS IN THIS KIND OF
CONVECTIVE ENVIRONMENT UNTIL THE CAP BREAKS AND CUMULUS CLOUDS
FORM. AND PER A PERSISTENCE FORECAST DUE TO LITTLE CHANGE IN THE
ATMOSPHERE...ANY STORMS THAT DEVELOP SHOULD DISSIPATE BY MID TO
LATE EVENING WITH THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING. A MORE DEFINED
STATIONARY FRONT EXTENDING FROM NCNTRL MT TO THE NRN OH VALLEY AND
THROUGH NRN NJ STARTS TO SAG SWD ON THU. CONVECTION SHOULD BECOME
MORE FOCUSED AND ORGANIZED ALONG THIS BOUNDARY. HOWEVER...THE MID
ATLANTIC REGION WILL CONTINUE TO SIT WITHIN A WARM SECTOR WITH
THUNDERSTORMS GENERATING ALONG THE WEAK LEE TROUGH THU AFTN. IT IS
POSSIBLE THAT MCS ACTIVITY ALONG THIS BOUNDARY COULD DIVE ACROSS
THE LOCAL AREA THU NIGHT SINCE THE FRONT IS EXPECTED TO REACH THE
VA/NC BORDER BY FRI MORNING. IT IS ALSO POSSIBLE THAT ANY ONGOING
MCS ACTIVITY COULD SPLIT AND STAY JUST TO THE NORTH AND BACK TO
THE WEST DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. WILL NEED TO MONITOR CLOSELY
FOR THIS POTENTIAL. THE FRONT STALLS ACROSS THE DELMARVA/ERN VA
REGION AND WOBBLES OVER THIS AREA AS A WARM FRONT ON FRI. WAVES OF
SHORTWAVE MOISTURE/ENERGY CAUGHT UP IN NW FLOW ALOFT ARE EXPECTED
TO INTERACT WITH THIS BOUNDARY AND INCREASE CHANCES FOR
THUNDERSTORMS...ESPECIALLY DURING THE AFTN.
SFC WINDS WILL GENERALLY BE LIGHT FROM THE SW-W MOST OF THE DAY
WED/THU UNTIL AMPLE DAYTIME HEATING BREAKS THE CAP AND AFTN MIXING
COMMENCES. GUSTS SHOULD BE AROUND 10-15 MPH EACH DAY. THE SW RETURN
FLOW WILL ALSO HELP TO BOOST TEMPERATURES INTO THE UPPER 90S WED
(MID 90S AT THE IMMEDIATE COAST)...WHICH IS STILL SUPPORTED BY
850 TEMPS OF 18-20C. GIVEN THE SLIGHTLY WARMER HIGH TEMPS ON
TUESDAY...DECIDED TO BUMP HIGH TEMPS UP BY A 1-2 DEGREES AREAWIDE.
THIS SUPPORTS THE POTENTIAL TO BREAK OR AT LEAST TIE RECORD HIGHS
FOR THE DAY. SEE CLIMATE SECTION BELOW FOR ADDITIONAL DETAILS.
THU SHOULD BE SIMILAR TO WED IN REGARD TO TEMPERATURES SINCE 850
TEMPS DO NOT VARY MUCH FROM 18-21C. AFTN MIXING SHOULD GIVE TEMPS
A NICE BOOST...HOWEVER INCREASING HIGH CLOUDS COMING IN FROM THE
NW (FROM ONGOING MCS ACTIVITY IN THE MIDWEST) COULD HAMPER TEMPS
FROM REACHING THEIR FULL POTENTIAL BY A FEW DEGREES. IN
ADDITION...DEWPOINTS ON TUESDAY GENERALLY STAYED IN THE LOWER 70S
UNTIL 1-2 PM BEFORE LOWERING TO 65-70 DEGREES DURING AFTN
MIXING/EROSION OF THE CAP. HAVE FOLLOWED THIS TREND INTO
WED...WHICH WILL RESULT IN HEAT INDEX VALUES OF 99-104 DEGREES FOR
MOST AREAS IN THE AFTN. PERSISTENT DEWPOINTS IN THE UPPER 60S TO
LOWER 70S PREVAIL ON THU AND HEAT INDEX VALUES WILL BE SIMILAR TO
WED (HI OF 99-104 DEGREES). THE PENDING HEAT CONTINUES TO BE
HIGHLIGHTED IN THE HWO. WARM OVERNIGHT LOWS ALSO REMAIN IN THE
LOWER 70S WED/THU NIGHTS.
&&
.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
MEDIUM RANGE LOOKS TO BEGIN WITH NW FLOW ALOFT SAT-SUN...AND A
STALLED SFC/LOW LEVEL BOUNDARY FROM THE SOUTHERN MID ATLC INTO THE
CAROLINAS. GFS/ECMWF/GEM HAVE ONLY MINOR DIFFERENCES IN GENERAL
FEATURES THROUGH THE WEEKEND. OVERALL...THIS PATTERN WILL SUPPORT
ABOVE CLIMO POPS FRI NIGHT/SAT ALTHOUGH WILL NOT GO LIKELY YET
GIVEN THAT THIS IS STILL 3-4 DAYS OUT. DID GO 40-50% POPS SAT ALL
ZONES. FLOW TURNING ONSHORE TO THE E/NE ON SAT SUGGESTS SOMEWHAT
COOLER TEMPERATURES WITH HIGHS MAINLY IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S
(RANGING FROM AROUND 90 F OVER SOUTH CENTRAL VA/INTERIOR NE NC TO
THE LOWER 80 EASTERN SHORE). WILL TREND POPS DOWN A LITTLE SUN
(ESPECIALLY OVER THE N/NE WHERE SOMEWHAT DRIER AIR MAY TRY TO
BUILD IN ON THE SOUTHERN EDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE TO THE N). STILL
RETAINED 30% POPS MOST AREAS THROUGH GIVEN NW FLOW ALOFT AND LACK
OF CONFIDENCE THAT DRIER AIR MAKES IT THIS FAR SOUTH. MID LEVEL
FLOW FLATTENS AND BECOMES MORE DUE WESTERLY MON- TUE...ALLOWING
FOR A SLIGHT WARMING TREND...WITH HIGHS GENLY RISING BACK INTO THE
UPPER 80S TO LOWER 90S AND LOWS IN THE MID- UPPER 60S TO LOWER
70S. WENT GENLY DRY AFTER MIDNIGHT THROUGH EARLY AFTN MON/TUE...
WITH 20-30% POPS AFTN/EVENING.
&&
.AVIATION /20Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
MOSTLY CLEAR VFR CONDITIONS ACROSS THE ENTIRE REGION THIS AFTERNOON
WITH SOME FEW TO SCT CLOUDS AROUND 4KFT-6KFT. THE CU SHOULD INCREASE
SOME AS THE AFTERNOON PROGRESSES BUT WILL REMAIN FEW-SCT. ISOLATED
TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING
PRIMARILY ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE VA/NC BORDER. CONVECTION WILL BE
ISOLATED ENOUGH TO LEAVE MENTION OF THUNDER OUT OF THE TAFS FOR
NOW. ANY ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY SHOULD WEAKEN AND
DISSIPATE AROUND SUNSET WITH THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING. WINDS WILL
REMAIN VARIABLE IN DIRECTION FOR MUCH OF THE AFTERNOON. SEA BREEZE
AND BAY BREEZE DEVELOPMENT ALONG THE COAST IS DRIVING WIND
DIRECTIONS IN THE EAST. A TREND TOWARD SW WINDS WILL DEVELOP
TOWARD EVENING AND CONTINUE OVERNIGHT. THE INCREASING SW WINDS AND
MIXING SHOULD PRECLUDE FOG DEVELOPMENT OVERNIGHT...HOWEVER HAZE
SHOULD FORM OVERNIGHT AND PERSIST INTO WED MORNING WITH
VISIBILITIES DROPPING TO 5SM.
OUTLOOK...LOOK FOR A TYPICAL SUMMER PATTERN WITH ISO-SCT AFTN AND
EVENING TSTMS...ESPECIALLY WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. A MORE
WELL-DEFINED FRONT WILL SAG SWD ACROSS THE MID ATLANTIC REGION
THU NIGHT INTO FRIDAY...BRINGING INCREASING THUNDERSTORM
CHANCES/COVERAGE.
&&
.MARINE...
GENLY BENIGN OVER THE MARINE AREA OUTSIDE FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL
DAYS OUTSIDE OF ANY CONVECTION...WITH LITTLE IN THE WAY OF A
PRESSURE GRADIENT IN PLACE. WAVES/SEAS ONLY 1-2 FT THIS
AFTN...SHOULD SEE SOME INCREASE IN S/SE FLOW LATER THIS EVENING
SHIFTING TO THE SW OVERNIGHT BUT SPEEDS WILL STILL GENLY ONLY AVG
10-15 KT. OTHERWISE...WINDS WILL BE MORE DRIVEN BY THE SEABREEZE
AND PERHAPS CONVECTIVE BOUNDARIES WED-THU (W/SW IN THE MORNING
THEN E/SE BY LATER AFTN/EVENING). EVENTUALLY WINDS SHIFT TO THE
N/NE LATE THU NIGHT/FRI INTO SAT AS A BACKDOOR COLD FRONT DROPS
THROUGH THE AREA...AND STALLS OVER NC OVER THE WEEKEND. DID RAMP
THE WINDS UP A LITTLE STRONGER THAN THE MODELS FRI-SAT GIVEN SOME
MODEST COOL AIR ADVECTION BUT NOT TO SCA LEVELS. SEAS AVG
2-3 FT/WAVES 1-2 FT.
