Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC
929 PM EST Thu Dec 22 2022
.SYNOPSIS...
Coastal low pressure will pass through the area tonight. An
Arctic front will pass through Friday, and a surge of Arctic
air will follow. Arctic high pressure settles overhead for the
holiday weekend with the coldest air by far this season. High
pressure will remain overhead through the middle portion of next
week, but temperatures will moderate closer to seasonable
levels during this time.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
Low pressure is located in southeast Virginia with a coastal
front bisecting eastern parts of the CWA. The marine air is
having trouble working westward, with the Blue Ridge Mountains
serving as a barrier between 30s west and 40s/50s east. Rain is
gradually lifting to the northeast, although some drizzle may
linger until winds lose the easterly component as the low tracks
to the north. With patchy temperatures near freezing west of
the Blue Ridge, some additional minor ice accretion could occur
on elevated surfaces, but temperatures should continue to tick
up a few degrees as the passing low helps to break up the wedge
in place.
Some flooding issues are arising east of the Blue Ridge this
evening due to persistent moderate rain falling on increasingly
saturated ground. Most of the issues are occurring in Virginia
where over 2 inches of rain has fallen.
Once steadier rain comes to an end late this evening, lingering
moisture could result in fog formation.
Overnight, a powerful Arctic front will approach from the west.
The front should reach the Appalachian crest between 3 and 5 AM.
This front has resulted in a sharp, record-breaking rapid drop
in temperatures across much of the lower 48 over the last day.
Sharp temperature drops will ensue over our area as well as this
front crosses.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
***POWERFUL ARCTIC FRONT TO DELIVER A SHARP DROP IN TEMPERATURES
AND DAMAGING WIND GUSTS***
The Arctic front will slice through the region Friday morning. A
sharp drop in temperatures (20 to 30 degrees in the span of a
few hours) will come as quite a shock, and could rapidly re-
freeze any residual moisture. A thin, low-topped line of shallow
convection is likely on the front and could be accompanied by a
burst of precipitation (perhaps rain changing to snow/pellets).
Winds will turn to the west and increase abruptly, with gusts
around 50 mph likely east of the mountains (perhaps a brief
period near 60 mph right as the front crosses) Friday morning
into early afternoon. Over the higher terrain, wind gusts of 60
to 70 mph are more likely.
Along and west of the Allegheny Front, a period of snow showers
accumulating up to a few inches combined with the high winds
could result in near blizzard conditions at times Friday.
Blustery and very cold conditions will take over through the
first half of the weekend. Temperatures will fall into the
single digits to below zero at night, and when combined with
the wind it will feel like below zero across the entire region
(-25 to -40 for the higher elevations). Highs will struggle to
escape the teens and 20s for most, remaining below 0 for the
mountain locales.
Winds will slacken only gradually through Saturday night, with
continued dangerous cold continuing. The persistent cold and
wind may prove dangerous, especially for anyone who experiences
power outages. Have a plan to protect you, your pets, plants,
pipes, livestock, and other property that are sensitive to
extreme cold conditions.
&&
.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Bitterly cold temperatures for Christmas give way to a gradual
warming trend by the middle part of next week.
Much quieter in the extended part the forecast with the exceptions
of brutally cold temperatures and wind chills for the Christmas
holiday. It will be one the coldest Christmas Day's for our region
in more than 5 years. An extra yule log or two will come in handy
Christmas morning with near record temperatures in the single digits
and lower teens. Sunny and breezy conditions are expected Christmas
afternoon although temperatures look to struggle. Highs will range
from the upper single digits over the mountains to mid and upper 20s
further east toward the bay. Wind chills will slightly improve as
winds gradually diminish with high pressure building in. Even with
that said, expect wind chills between 5 to -5 degrees below zero
Christmas morning improving into the mid to upper teens and low 20s
Christmas afternoon. Warm layers will be needed if spending any time
outdoors.
The cold and breezy conditions continue into Monday as temperatures
make a run at freezing. This is especially true in areas along and
east of the Blue Ridge while areas further west remain in the teens
and 20s. It's not until Tuesday as the upper level trough lifts well
north of the area and high pressure builds overhead to get
temperatures back above freezing in most locations outside of the
Allegheny Front.
The moderating trend toward more seasonable temperatures will
continue for Wednesday and Thursday with high pressure remaining
overhead. Dry conditions will remain with high temperatures punching
into the 40s and potentially the 50s by late next week.
&&
.AVIATION /02Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
CIGs are expected to be low this evening across all terminals,
with IFR to LIFR likely, although there may be some breaks into
MVFR. Fog may develop after steadier rain ends overnight, but
confidence is low on how widespread/dense it will be since
winds should remain slightly elevated.
Sub-VFR (IFR or brief LIFR conditions) will continue into Friday
morning, but a strong cold front will pass through by 13-15Z. A
period of rain and snow may accompany the frontal passage along
with a potent wind shift to the west and southwest. It remains
uncertain whether precipitation will last long enough to change
to snow before ending...but kept this mention in the TAF for
planning purposes. Westerly wind gusts around 35 to 45 knots
are most likely behind the cold front later Friday
morning/afternoon (50 kts at MRB). Rapidly falling temperatures
from above freezing to well below freezing along with a possible
period of snow may cause surfaces to quickly turn icy. Gusty
west to southwest winds will continue Friday night as well.
Gusty west to southwest winds are expected for Saturday and
Sunday with VFR conditions, and it will be bitterly cold. VFR
conditions continue into next week as high pressure gradually
builds in. Cold temperatures will remain Sunday into Monday with
breezy westerly flow. Gusts of 15-20 kts are likely Sunday with
10-15 kt gusts Monday as the gradient continues to relax. High
pressure will build overhead Monday into Tuesday causing lighter
winds across the region.
&&
.MARINE...
Low pressure is passing over the waters this evening, causing
easterly winds to eventually become southerly. Enhanced easterly
flow earlier this evening resulted in starting the Gale Warning
earlier for the southern Maryland waters, but expect some lulls
in the wind overnight. Elsewhere SCAs remain in effect.
A strong Arctic front will pass through the waters Friday
morning/midday and gusty westerly winds are expected behind the
boundary through Friday night (winds may turn south of west Friday
night). The strongest winds are expected late Friday morning through
Friday evening. A Gale Warning is in effect Friday and Friday night.
Given the combination of strong winds and quickly dropping
temperatures Friday afternoon/evening, freezing spray is
expected during this time as well. This threat likely continues
into Saturday as well with gusty winds and frigid temperatures.
Arctic high pressure will remain centered to the west while low
pressure remains over southern Canada Sunday into Monday. Gusty west
to southwest winds mean an SCA will possibly be needed once again
for the waters Sunday into Monday. Sub-SCA level winds return to the
waters with high pressure building overhead Monday through Wednesday
next week.
&&
.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
An onshore flow will strengthen through this evening as coastal
low pressure approaches. The coastal low will pass through
tonight. Tidal anomalies will increase and minor flooding is
likely around times of high tide. Have expanded existing
advisories, although uncertainty remains for the north end of
the bay. Will also have to monitor DC SW Waterfront, Straits
Point, and Annapolis which could come close to moderate flooding
if anomalies increase toward the higher end of the possible
range. A strong west to southwest flow will develop behind the
cold front Friday. This should push water out for most areas,
but with the flow being south of west, elevated water levels may
persist into Friday night.
&&
.CLIMATE...
Based on forecast lows in the single digits to teens, we are on
track for the coldest Christmas since 1989 for many locations.
Still, the current forecast lows for December 24 and 25 are
well above the record lows for those dates, which were mostly
set during the historic winter/cold air outbreak of 1983.
Below are the current forecast low temperatures for Christmas Day
(December 25), and the last time the observed low temperature
was equal or colder on Christmas Day. (Note, low temperatures
are likely to be a few degrees colder the morning of December 24).
