Flash Flooding in Virginia, August 18, 2024

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Wakefield VA
401 PM EDT Sun Aug 18 2024

.SYNOPSIS...
Scattered showers and storms are possible through Monday as an upper
level trough moves into the area. Cooler and drier conditions are
expected from Tuesday through the rest of next week as high pressure
remains to the north of the local area under a trough aloft.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
As of 350 PM EDT Sunday...

Key Messages:

- A Severe Thunderstorm Watch has been issued for most of the
  area (outside of the far SE) through 10 PM EDT. The primary
  threat is damaging wind gusts.

- Locally heavy rain with localized flash flood is possible.

Latest sfc analysis depicts low pressure over the E Great Lakes with
a trailing cold front over the Appalachian Mountains. Aloft, a
trough over the E CONUS (centered over the Ohio Valley) continues to
gradually move E. The cold front will slowly approach the local area
while the trough deepens as it gradually moves E. Scattered showers
and storms have begun to develop across central VA and the Eastern
Shore. Scattered storms are expected to increase in coverage through
the evening with the bulk of the area having PoPs in the 50-60%
range after 21z (60-70% across the Northern Neck and Eastern Shore).
Showers/storms gradually push E as the cold front sweeps through
overnight, tapering off late tonight/early Monday morning. Given
MLCAPE values of 1500-2000 J/kg, moderate 0-6 km shear of 25-30 kt,
and mid level lapse rates of 5.5-6C, the potential exists for storms
to become severe. The SPC has placed most of the FA in a slight risk
(2/5). The primary threat is damaging wind gusts. However, given mid
level lapse rates of 5.5-6C, hail will also be possible in any more
discrete storms. Additionally, given high 3CAPE and sfc vorticity
across the Ches Bay, a few waterspouts will also be possible. A
Severe Thunderstorm Watch has been issued for most of the area
(apart from the far SE) from the MD Eastern Shore SW through
Northampton, NC through 10 PM EDT.

Apart from the severe threat, there is also the potential for heavy
rain, potentially leading to localized flooding. The highest threat
is N of I-64 and E of I-95 to the Northern Neck. This area already
received 2-4" over the past 24 hrs and will likely see another 1-2"+
today. Given the rainfall yesterday evening/overnight, FFG here is
locally lower (1-1.5" in 1 hr or 2-2.5" in 3 hrs). Additionally,
forecast soundings show Bunkers Right storm motion of 18-20 kt with
Corfidi Upshear vectors around 15 kt. As such, expect slow moving
storms with training of storms possible. WPC has this area under a
slight risk for Excessive Rainfall (including W portions of the
Eastern Shore) with a marginal risk elsewhere.

Temps as of 340 PM ranged from the upper 80s to around 90F across
the area. Even though the cold front crosses the area tonight, the
drier air lags behind with dew points remaining in the upper 60s W
to lower 70s E. Given the higher dew points, rain cooled air from
storms, and light winds, at least patchy (potentially widespread)
fog is possible across inland portions of the FA. Locally dense fog
is possible. Lows overnight will likely range from the mid- upper
60s W to the low-mid 70s along the coast.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
As of 350 PM EDT Sunday...

Key Messages:

-Scattered showers and storms are expected on Monday with strong
 to locally severe storms possible.

-Cool and dry conditions return Monday night into Tuesday.

The upper level trough remains over the area on Mon with a final
shortwave pushing through Mon afternoon into Mon evening.
Instability (HREF SBCAPE of 1000-1500 J/kg) will be lower but still
sufficient for widespread scattered showers and storms. However,
given W/WNW sfc winds behind the cold front, widespread severe
weather appears unlikely. That being said, gusty winds (mainly 30-50
mph) will be possible with any showers/storms given steep low level
lapse rates. Cannot rule out an isolated severe gust or two as well.
As such, SPC has the entire area under a marginal (level 1/5) risk
for severe weather Mon. Additionally, showers/storms may drop up to
around 1" of rain (locally higher) over a large area with isolated
instances of flooding possible. The most vulnerable location is the
Northern Neck where the heaviest rainfall occurred last night
and where additional rainfall is expected this afternoon/evening
ahead of Monday's rain. WPC has a marginal risk for Excessive
Rainfall over much of the area (generally N of Hampton Roads).
Any showers or storms taper off from W to E Mon evening.

Highs Mon are expected to range from the lower 80s NW to the upper
80s SE. Cooler, drier air pushes in behind the shortwave Mon night
with clearing skies late (apart from bay effect clouds). Lows Mon
night in the upper 50s NW to the upper 60s SE are expected. Tues
will be a very pleasant day for August with highs in the upper 70s
to lower 80s under mostly sunny skies with dew points in the 50s for
most. A large area of high pressure centered over the Great Lakes
Tue night nudges into the local area. With it, temps drop into the
lower 50s NW to the upper 50s SE (low-mid 60s along the coast).

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
As of 400 PM EDT Sunday...

Key Messages:

-Much cooler, drier weather is expected next week.

-A gradual warmup is expected by next weekend.

A seasonally strong upper level trough remains over the East Coast
through late week with strong (~1024mb) high pressure centered to
the N of the local area. This will allow for a prolonged period of
cool and dry weather with well below normal temps expected from
through Fri. In fact, it will feel almost like Fall in the middle of
next week with highs in the upper 70s to lower 80s Wed and Thu and
widespread lows in the mid 50s inland Wed and Thu nights (60s along
the coast and upper 50s in urban areas like Richmond). Some model
guidance suggest lows may even drop into the upper 40s across the NW
rural portions of the FA Tue night/Wed morning and Wed night/Thu
morning! Quite pleasant for August. Additionally, dew points drop
into the 50s (potentially upper 40s NW) from Wed through early Fri.
Temps begin to warm Fri into the weekend with highs in the lower 80s
Fri, mid 80s Sat, and upper 80s to near 90F Sun. Dry weather is
expected through the week. Have added a climate section with respect
to low temp records.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
As of 205 PM Sunday...

SCT-BKN CU continue across the area through this afternoon with
partial clearing overnight before clouds redevelop on Mon. CIGs
were mainly VFR/MVFR this afternoon (2500-5000 ft CIGs).
Scattered showers and storms are expected to develop later this
afternoon and continue into this evening before tapering off
from W to E overnight. However, confidence is low on exact
timing and location of the storms. As such, have VCTS for all
terminals with TEMPOs for storms at all terminals except ECG
(where confidence is too low). IFR VIS and MVFR CIGs will be
possible with any showers/storms as well as gusty winds. While
the cold front crosses the area overnight, the drier air lags
behind. As such, at least patchy fog is possible inland
(especially where rain occurs this afternoon/evening). Locally
dense fog is also possible. The best chance for overnight fog is
at RIC and SBY with any fog likely lifting by 13-14z.

Outlook: Scattered showers and storms are likely again on Mon
ahead of the surge of dry air behind the cold front. Gusty
winds, IFR VIS, MVFR CIGs are possible with any showers/storms.
Convection tapers off from W to E Mon evening with dry and VFR
conditions expected Mon night. Primarily VFR conditions are
expected to prevail through the rest of the week as high
pressure builds in to the N.

&&

.MARINE...
As of 350 PM EDT Sunday...

Key Messages:

- Small Craft Advisories remain in effect for all coastal waters and
as swells from Hurricane Ernesto reach the coast.

- A rather strong cold front for August is expected to cross the Mid-
Atlantic coast Monday night into early Tuesday, with Small
Craft Advisories possible, mainly over the Chesapeake Bay.

High pressure is centered offshore this aftn with a trough inland.
The wind is S 10-15kt with occasional gusts to 20kt. Tropical Storm
Ernesto is now well NNE of Bermuda, with 4-6ft swell propagating to
the Mid-Atlantic coast. SCAs for the coastal waters remain in effect
through late tonight S of Cape Charles, and into Monday N of Cape
Charles. The SCA for the mouth of the Ches. Bay has been cancelled
as the swell in generally less than 4ft there. The trough will
gradually push toward the coast this evening and tstms are likely.
Any tstms could produce strong wind gusts, and a waterspout is
possible. Tstms diminish overnight with the wind becoming SW 5-10kt
as the trough nears the coast.

The models remain in decent agreement that another eastern CONUS
upper trough develops next week, allowing a decent cold front to
move through the local waters Monday night/Tuesday with winds
shifting to the N/NW. Current models are coming into better
agreement, though the NBM winds are still likely underdone. With
good mixing as rather cool air (by August standards) moves over the
warm waters, expect there will be a NNW surge at least into the 15-
20kt range with higher gusts late Monday night through early Tuesday
(and potentially again Tuesday night/Wednesday morning as the sfc
high is still centered off to the W of the local area). The current
marine forecast Monday night/early Tuesday is for northerly winds in
the 15-20kt with gusts to ~25 kt range for the Bay with waves up to
3-4 ft. Strong high pressure then centers near the region late in
the week, and will bring onshore flow at 10-15kt on average, and
highest S.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
As of 615 AM EDT Sunday...

Key Message:

- A High Risk of Rip Currents will continue Monday with
  nearshore waves of 3-4 ft combined with long period swell
  averaging 10 to 12 seconds.

- Coastal Flood Statements are in effect for Dorchester/Wicomico/Somerset
  MD for the high tide cycle late tonight/early Monday morning.

The latest 18/12Z run of the NWPS supports high rip risk for all
beaches Monday with lingering 3-4ft swell and 10-12s periods. There
will still likely be some lingering swell Tuesday. However, waves
should be more chaotic as a strong NNW wind develops behind a cold
front. The current rip risk forecast for Tuesday is moderate.
However, the latest NWPS guidance does depict high for most of the
beaches.

The latest Currents at the mouth of the Bay have trended more ebb
tide dominant today. Tidal departures in the upper Bay are ~1.0ft
and steady. High tide late tonight/early Monday morning will
potentially approach minor flood as it is the higher astronomical,
but with the currents ebbing, the departures would tend to fall a
bit in the upper Bay. The Coastal Flood Statement (rather than
advisory) has been maintained for portions of the lower MD eastern
shore given the latest forecast showing peak water levels just below
Minor Flood thresholds at Cambridge and Crisfield (with minor at
Bishop's Head).
