Hail and Damaging Wind in North Carolina, June 26, 2015

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
831 PM EDT FRI JUN 26 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A DEEP LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL MOVE UP THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY
TONIGHT AND SATURDAY...TRIGGERING INCREASING CHANCES FOR SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS FROM TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY EVENING. A STRONG
COLD FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA SATURDAY NIGHT...RESULTING IN
GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS AND UNSEASONABLY COOLER TEMPERATURES.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 830 PM EDT FRIDAY...

FORECAST AREA REMAINS IN VOID BETWEEN STORMS TO OUR SOUTH AND
WEST. WW363 IS IN EFFECT FOR FAR WESTERN VA AND PARTS OF SOUTHERN
WV IN ANTICIPATION OF ARRIVAL OF MCS LATER THIS EVENING AND
OVERNIGHT. HRRR INDICATES ARRIVAL AROUND MIDNIGHT.

A FRONTAL BOUNDARY REMAINS STALLED ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. THIS
FEATURE WILL PROVIDE AS A FOCUSSING MECHANISM FOR SHOWERS/STORMS
TO FOLLOW DURING THE OVERNIGHT. ENHANCEMENT OF SHOWERS ACROSS THE
AREA IS EXPECTED DURING THE LATE NIGHT AS EASTERLY UPSLOPE FLOW
INCREASES AFTER MIDNIGHT PROVIDING ADDITIONAL LIFT AND
CONCENTRATION OF DEEPER MOISTURE ALONG THE BLUE RIDGE.

FRONT OVER THE AREA IS EXPECTED TO LIFT NORTH AS A WARM FRONT
SATURDAY...ALLOWING WINDS TO SHIFT SOUTHWESTERLY AREAWIDE. THIS
SHOULD PROVIDE A BREAK IN THE RAINFALL THREAT FOR A FEW HOURS
BEFORE THE SUPPORTING UPPER LEVEL TROUGH ASSOCIATED WITH THE LOW
PUSHES A BKN-SOLID LINE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS ACROSS OUR AREA
FROM THE WEST. GUSTY WINDS AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN WILL BE
POSSIBLE WITH THE STORMS.

CONCERNING THE POTENTIAL FOR WIDESPREAD HEAVY RAIN...
FORECAST MODELS CONTINUE TO TREND FURTHER WEST AND NORTH WITH THE
BRUNT OF HEAVY RAIN ASSOCIATED WITH THE LOW...KEEPING IT MORE
CONFINED ALONG AND NORTH OF THE OHIO RIVER. WHILE LOCALLY HEAVY
RAIN MAY RESULT IN A FEW FLOODING ISSUES ACROSS OUR AREA...BELIEVE
WE WILL NOT SEE ENOUGH WIDESPREAD HEAVY RAIN TO SUPPORT A FLASH
FLOOD WATCH AT THIS TIME. THAT SAID...WITH INCREASING EASTERLY
UPSLOPE FLOW LATE TONIGHT...WILL HAVE TO MONITOR FOR LOCALIZEDFLASH
FLOODING DUE TO THE POTENTIAL FOR STORM CELLS TO BECOME ANCHORED
NEAR CREST OF BLUE RIDGE WHERE UPSLOPE FLOW WILL BE THE GREATEST.
CONFIDENCE IS JUST NOT GREAT ENOUGH ATTM TO PINPOINT EXACT
LOCATION WHERE THE ANCHORING WILL OCCUR.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 250 PM EDT FRIDAY...

THE BIG STORY DURING THIS PORTION OF THE FORECAST WILL BE THE
WINTERISH GRADIENT WINDS WE WILL EXPERIENCE ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE
DEPARTING COLD FRONT...FOLLOWED BY MUCH COOLER CONDITIONS. THE
PARENT UPPER LOW WILL MAKE ITS WAY SLOWLY EASTWARD SATURDAY NIGHT
FROM THE THUMB OF MICHIGAN TO NEAR ERIE PA. THE 850 MB FLOW AROUND
THE LOW IS PROGGED TO PEAK IN THE 40 TO 50 KT RANGE AROUND 12Z
SUNDAY. MOST AREAS IN THE MOUNTAINS ACROSS THE REGION LATE SATURDAY
NIGHT TROUGH AT LEAST MID-DAY SUNDAY WILL SEE WIND GUSTS IN THE 20
TO 30 MPH RANGE...WITH THE HIGHEST RIDGE TOPS EXPERIENCING GUSTS OF
40 TO 45 MPH. WIND SPEEDS AND GUSTS WILL DECREASE THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON WITH 850 MB WINDS PROGGED TO DECREASE TO AROUND 15 TO 20
KTS BY SUNSET SUNDAY.

PRECIPITATION SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY WILL BE CONFINED TO TWO MAIN
AREAS. THERE WILL BE LINGERING SHOWERS AND SOME STORMS ACROSS THE
SOUTHEAST PART OF THE AREA COINCIDENT TO AND BEHIND THE DEPARTING
COLD FRONT. THE LAST FEW SHOWERS IN THIS PART OF THE FORECAST AREA
MAY LINGER UNTIL 200 AM TO 500 AM SUNDAY MORNING. THE OTHER AREA OF
PRECIPITATION WILL BE ISOLATED TO SCATTERED UPSLOPE SHOWERS ACROSS
THE PREFERRED AREAS OF SOUTHEAST WEST VIRGINIA...SOUTH INTO THE
NORTHERN MOUNTAINS OF NORTH CAROLINA. COVERAGE WILL DECREASE DURING
THE AFTERNOON SUNDAY AS THE WIND SPEEDS SLACKEN.

TEMPERATURES WILL TREND COOLER SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY. LOWS
SATURDAY NIGHT WILL RANGE FROM THE MID TO UPPER 50S ACROSS THE
MOUNTAINS WITH UPPER 50S TO LOWER 60S ACROSS THE PIEDMONT. HIGHS ON
SUNDAY WILL RANGE FROM AROUND 70 TO THE LOWER 70S ACROSS THE
MOUNTAINS TO THE UPPER 70S TO AROUND 80 ACROSS THE PIEDMONT.

DRY AND COOL HIGH PRESSURE WILL SETTLE OVER THE REGION ON SUNDAY
NIGHT. EXPECT NO PRECIPITATION WITH BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES. LOWS
WILL RANGE FROM THE LOW TO MID 50S ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS WITH UPPER
50S ACROSS THE PIEDMONT. WHILE NO RECORD LOW TEMPERATURES ARE
FORECAST...A FEW LOCATIONS WILL FALL TO READINGS WITHIN FIVE DEGREES
OF RECORD LOWS. SEE THE CLIMATE SECTION OF THIS DISCUSSION FOR
DETAILS.

ON MONDAY...THE CENTER OF THE SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL PROGRESS
EASTWARD IN ADVANCE OF OUR NEXT GREAT LAKES SHORTWAVE TROUGH. EXPECT
A RETURN OF A SOUTHERLY COMPONENT OF THE LOW LEVEL WINDS AND
INCREASING DEW POINTS AND TEMPERATURES. WHILE NO PRECIPITATION IS
FORECAST FOR THE MORNING...SOME ISOLATED SHOWERS MAY DEVELOP ACROSS
SOUTHEAST WEST VIRGINIA DURING THE AFTERNOON. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL
AVERAGE 5 TO 7 DEGREES MILDER THAN THOSE OF SUNDAY. ANTICIPATE UPPER
70S TO AROUND 80 IN THE MOUNTAINS AND LOW TO MID 80S ACROSS THE
PIEDMONT.

ON MONDAY NIGHT...THE TROUGH AXIS OF THE GREAT LAKES SYSTEM WILL
START PROGRESSING THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY. LOOK FOR SHOWERS AND
STORMS TO EXPAND IN COVERAGE ACROSS THE WESTERN PARTS OF THE AREA.
STILL LITTLE OR NO COVERAGE IS ANTICIPATED FOR AREAS EAST OF THE
CREST OF THE BLUE RIDGE. LOW TEMPERATURES WILL RANGE FROM THE UPPER
50S TO AROUND 60 ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS TO THE LOWER 60S ACROSS THE
PIEDMONT.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 320 PM EDT FRIDAY...

THIS PORTION OF THE FORECAST PERIOD IS EXPECTED TO BE ONE WITH
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS ACROSS THE AREA EACH DAY AND NIGHT. THE
AXIS OF A SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION BY MIDDAY
TUESDAY. THE COLD FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO
STALL OVER...OR JUST SOUTH OF THE AREA...AND TAKE ON A NW-SE
ORIENTATION. THROUGH FRIDAY...LITTLE MOVEMENT OF THIS FRONT IS
EXPECTED. THE COMBINATION OF DAYTIME HEATING...AND THE POTENTIAL FOR
ADDITIONAL WAVES OF ENERGY MOVING SOUTHEAST ALONG THIS FEATURE WILL
BE THE SOURCE OF THE FORECAST SCATTERED SHOWERS AND SOME STORMS.
HIGH TEMPERATURES DURING THIS PORTION OF THE FORECAST WILL RANGE
FROM THE UPPER 70S TO AROUND 80 ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS AND MID TO
UPPER 80S ACROSS THE PIEDMONT. LOW TEMPERATURES WILL MAINLY BE IN
THE LOWER 60S ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS AND UPPER 60S ACROSS THE PIEDMONT.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 800 PM EDT FRIDAY...

VFR CONDITIONS THIS EVENING ARE EXPECTED TO DETERIORATE AFTER
MIDNIGHT AS DEEP CONVECTION FROM THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX WEST OF THE
APPALACHIANS CROSSES THE MOUNTAINS DURING THE OVERNIGHT. NOT
CONFIDENT ENOUGH ON EXACT TIMING OF TSRA...THUS LEAVING OUT OF
TAFS ATTM. MORE CONFIDENT ON INCREASING CLOUDS AND INCREASING
COVERAGE OF SHOWERS WITH POTENTIAL FOR MVFR CIGS PER INCREASING
UPSLOPE EASTERLY FLOW DURING THE OVERNIGHT. MODELS HINT THAT CIGS
COULD DROP TO IFR AFTER 06Z/2AM...BUT WOULD LIKE TO SEE INCREASING
COVERAGE OF RAIN COOLED AIR BEFORE FORECASTING THE LOW CIGS.

PRIMARY CONCERN SATURDAY IS STRONG FRONTAL PASSAGE WHICH IS
FORECAST BY ALL MODELS TO OCCUR DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND
EVENING WITH 40-50KT WESTERLY WINDS 3KFT AGL DEVELOPING BEHIND THE
FRONT SATURDAY NIGHT. ANTICIPATING BKN LINE OF SHOWERS/TSTMS TO
ACCOMPANY THE FRONT SATURDAY AFTERNOON...FOLLOWED BY PARTIAL
CLEARING SATURDAY NIGHT WITH GUSTY WESTERLY WINDS. THESE WINDS ARE
EXPECTED TO PERSIST INTO THE DAY SUNDAY BEFORE DIMINISHING.

EXPECT MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS SUNDAY INTO MONDAY...HIGH PRESSURE
SPREADING ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. NEXT COLD FRONT IS FORECAST TO
ARRIVE WITH POTENTIAL FOR SHOWERS MONDAY EVENING/OVERNIGHT.
TIMING OF SHOWERS WITH THIS FRONT A BIT UNCERTAIN BUT COULD SEE
PERIODS OF MVFR MONDAY NIGHT AND MAINLY ALONG THE WESTERN SLOPES
TUESDAY...OTHERWISE VFR ACROSS THE EAST.
