NWS Forecaster Discussion
313 fxus61 kakq 211533 afdakq Area forecast discussion National Weather Service Wakefield Virginia 1033 am EST Sat Nov 21 2009 Synopsis... high pressure builds into the region this afternoon and tonight...then becomes centered to our north on Sunday. Low pressure develops to our south tonight...then tracks northeast off the coastal Carolinas late Sunday through Monday. The low moves farther offshore Monday night into Tuesday. && Near term /until 6 PM this evening/... surface hi pressure centered to our north will continue to dominate the region this afternoon...as next system to affect the area moves along the western sections of the Gulf Coast. North/NE winds over the region will lead to temperatures in the upper 50s to lower 60s. Hi clouds will continue to spread across the County Warning Area...due to SW flow aloft in advance of next system. So...generally a prtly sny afternoon. && Short term /6 PM this evening through Tuesday/... increasing high clouds tonight as system pushes into the southeast US. It will take some time to saturate middle/low levels of the airmass (s-n) over the region. Precipitation will start off fairly light at first as overrunning develops with SW flow aloft well ahead of main system on sun. Look for highs in the middle/upper 50s. Precipitation chances increase Sun night and into Monday as system moves to the NE off the Carolina coast. Best shot of precipitation accums over a quarter of an inch will be over the southern third of the County Warning Area with highest amounts by Monday afternoon over the far southeast. Following close to/but not as high as the European model (ecmwf) solution with regard to precipitation amounts as system moves further up the East Coast. Would not be surprised to see clouds and areas of -ra/dz continue into Tuesday am before enough dry air filters out the bl later in the day. Overall for this system...currently looking at near a half of an inch of precipitation over the northwest and around an inch over the far southeast. This will occur enough over time to keep any flash flooding issues to a minimum with the recent rainfall we have seen as of late. && Long term /Tuesday night through Friday/... for Tuesday night/Wed...ridging develops either along the East Coast (ecmwf) or well off the coast (gfs). Gnly keeping skies partly cloudy for this period with near to slightly above average temperatures...highs into lower 60s and lows mainly in the 40s. As the ridge breaks down on Thanksgiving day...GFS/ECMWF bring next system into the area from the south (although again west/ major differences in track). Bring increasing clouds into the forecast...along with at least a slight chance for showers. Front looks to push through by Friday...drier and cooler weather for Friday. && Aviation /16z Saturday through Wednesday/... VFR cndtns expeceted through forecast prd despite widespread cirrus ovrsprdg region from SW. Low apprchs from S by late sun with next chance for lower ceilings and chance for rain into Monday. The weather improves again by Tuesday. && Marine... cndtns remain below Small Craft Advisory levels through Sun morning as high prs dominates. Low prs along the southern states moves slowly NE late sun into Erly next week. NE prs gradient prognosticated to increases aftr 18z sun from the mouth of the ches Bay on S. Meanwhile...sustained NE fetch slowly builds seas to around 5 feet across the coastal waters Sun afternoon and beyond. Although there is still some disagreement in the models on the eventual track of this systm...confidence high enough at this time to hoist (marginal) Small Craft Advisory headlines starting Sun afternoon and continuing Sun night across all coastal waters...Currituck sand and the mouth of the ches Bay. Will end Small Craft Advisory headlines late Sun night (at the end of the 4th prd)...although latest wavewatch has seas at or above 5 feet through Tuesday. && Akq watches/warnings/advisories... Maryland...none. NC...none. Virginia...none. Marine...Small Craft Advisory from 1 PM Sunday to 6 am EST Monday for anz632-633-650-652-654-656-658. && $$ Synopsis...tmg near term...tmg short term...tmg/ccw long term...lkb aviation...mpr/lsa marine...mpr/lsa
