Fxus61 kakq 170550 afdakq area forecast discussion national weather service wakefield va 150 am edt Wed jul 17 2019 Synopsis High pressure will remain off the southeast coast through Wednesday. A weak trough of low pressure will cross the region Thursday. Otherwise, hot and humid weather will continue until Monday. Near term until 6 am this morning As of 945 pm edt Tuesday... showers tstms have diminished in coverage and intensity over the past two hours, with only pops of only 20% overnight, mainly from the WRN shore of the bay to the ERN shore. Very warm and humid this evening with temperatures in the upper 70s to low 80s and dewpoints in the low mid 70s. Partly to mostly cloudy this evening with decreasing clouds expected overnight, and low temperatures ranging through the 70s. Short term 6 am this morning through 6 pm Thursday As of 325 pm edt Tuesday... while remnants of a tropical cyclone pass well N of the region wed-wed night... Sfc hi pres becomes reestablished off the mid- atlantic SE CONUS coast. SW flow pushes hot and humid air into the region Wed W only minimal (diurnal) rain chances. Highs in the m-u90s inland... L90s at the (immediate) coast. Before (even) hotter wx arrives (for fri-mon)... A weak trough aloft will be crossing the region Wed night-thu which potentially causes another increase in convection. Otw... Partly cloudy w lows Wed night in the l70s W to the m-u70s elsewhere. Highs thu in the l-m90s. Heat advisory has been raised for areas along E of I 95 for wed for heat indices reaching around 105f. Dew point forecast is tricky on Wed given potential for a bit of lowering (due to sw winds) before around the time of peak heating but that may result in a bit higher actual temperature. Heat advisory may be necessary again thu... ESP over SE va-ne nc. Long term Thursday night through Tuesday As of 240 pm edt Tuesday... not much to say (that hasn't already been conveyed) about the upcoming heatwave Fri into early next week (mon). A typical mid july summertime wx pattern persists through the extended forecast period as (stagnant) hi pres sfc- aloft builds from the se mid-atlantic states on W through the mid ms valley. Confidence is very high right now that this will be the hottest period of the summer so far and result in dangerous heat indices. Mainly partly cloudy... Hot humid during the day... Very warm humid at night through the period (w AOB climo diurnal pops (blo 30%) - except a bit higher by mon). Highs Fri in the 90s... Then highs Sat and Sun mainly 95-101f - locally u80s-l90s at the immediate coast each day. Heat effects will be cumulative through the period as nighttime lows will avg 75-80f. Heat advisories (heat indices 105-109f) and or excessive heat warnings (heat indices 110f+) are likely Fri through next weekend (dependent upon future dew point forecasts). Will continue to highlight this potential in the hwo. Record highs may be tough to reach but record high lows appear to be attainable... See climate below. A breakdown of the hot pattern is showing up on the extended guidance Mon through Tue as the heat ridge weakens and a trough aloft begins to amplify toward the ERN conus. Highs still in the 90s Mon W pops to 40-50% ahead of an approaching cold front. Timing of that front completely through the fa remains uncertain but it does appears that Tue will begin the cooldown in earnest (w continued relatively high pops). Highs Tue in the u80s. Aviation 06z Wednesday through Sunday As of 150 am edt Wednesday... despite some lingering isolated showers from ric to orf,VFR conditions noted across area terminals early this morning. Sct-bkn mid and high clouds with a ssw wind of 5-8kt to continue early this morning through midday, increasing to 8-12kt out of the SW by aftn, with some occasional gusts to ~15-18kt possible. We do have the chc for some additional isolated to widely sct aftn evening showers tstms this aftn, mainly over SE sections

from phf orf ecg. Outlook: very similar setup on thu, with a chance for additional sct showers and storms Thursday aftn evening, dropping back to 20% or less Friday through Sunday. Predominate conditions will remainVFR at terminals, with brief flight restrictions (mainly due to lowered vsby) with any showers tstms. Marine As of 945 pm edt Tuesday... there have been some enhanced winds at times over the bay resulting from outflow from earlier thunderstorms. As of late this evening the northern bay was still experiencing winds gusts to 25 kt, but most locations from the potomac river south were 15 kt or less. A general SW wind of 10 to 15 kt is expected overnight and wind may be lighter at times. The SW winds persist overnight as bermuda high reestablish control of the weather along the eastern seaboard. A trough of low pressure over the ohio valley will begin to push eastward into the area Wed afternoon into Wed night. This will tighten the gradient and kick winds up to 10 to 15 kt in the bay and 15 to 20 in the coastal waters. Some of the wave guidance suggest a short period of waves up near 5 ft in the northern coastal waters. For now have held values at 3 to 4 ft for last Wed into Wed night. Overall not raising any SCA flags through Wednesday night. The winds will begin to relax to around 10 kt on the bay and rivers and 10 to 15 kt on the ocean waters on Thursday as the trough of low pressure slides over the area. This pattern will continue into Friday allowing for a continued weakening of the winds to around 10 kt, but once the weak trough breaks down, the bermuda high will once again begin to build into the region and the southerly to southwesterly flow will again strengthen to around 10 to 15 kt for the coming weekend. Climate Upcoming heatwave may challenge or break record highs and or record high lows (esp from Fri through sun).

Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program.
