Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC 929 PM EDT Sun Apr 20 2025
SYNOPSIS
A front will remain situated to the south near the Virginia/North Carolina border through early Monday before lifting northward as a warm front on Monday afternoon. A cold front will pass through the region early Tuesday. High pressure builds over the region through Thursday before the pattern becomes active again as a trough impacts the region Friday and into next weekend.
NEAR TERM /UNTIL 7 AM MONDAY MORNING/
Thus far, the dry air in the atmosphere has won out as no shower activity has formed at this point. Given some modest signal in the high-resolution guidance, will maintain isolated shower chances across the Potomac Highlands into the central Blue Ridge. Otherwise, mid to high clouds remain across the area which will help keep mild temperatures in place tonight.
Forecast lows will be in the 50s which is around 8 to 12 degrees above average.
SHORT TERM /7 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/
The front over southern Virginia will return north as a warm front early Monday morning. As the front lifts northward, clouds will increase over the region with winds shifting out of the south to southwest. Warm air advection will increase, but will likely be somewhat stymied by mostly cloudy skies. High temperatures are forecast to peak in the 70s with the highest temperatures being observed down in central Virginia. A cold front is expected to move into our region from the west during the afternoon periods on Monday and slowly shift eastward through the region through Tuesday morning.
The best lift and instability will be focused along and west of I-81 which should have the best chance for observing measurable precipitation from showers and potentially a few thunderstorms. As the front moves eastward into the I-95 corridor, the chances for widespread precipitation decreases due to lack of instability.
Showers and isolated thunderstorms will be possible in the region through early Tuesday Morning. Most guidance has the front sinking far enough south by Tuesday afternoon that the threat for showers will becoming minimal for our region.
Skies will remain mostly cloudy on Tuesday with afternoon high temperatures expected to be above normal in the mid to upper 70s to lower 80s. Winds will become light our of the north. Cooler temperatures will start to build into the region late Tuesday with overnight lows forecast to drop down into the 50s along and east of I-95 and temperatures in the 40s to the west.
LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/
A weak/broad surface high moves over the norther Mid-Atlantic Wednesday, then slides offshore Thursday. This maintains dry conditions for our area, with mid to upper 70s each day. The weather pattern becomes more active Friday into next weekend as an upper trough and cold front approach from the west. Increasingly southerly flow Friday advects in higher moisture (dew points in the low 60s)
that could result in numerous showers and some thunderstorms. The highest rain chances will be when the front moves through, but models differ on timing and strength of the front itself. Friday could end up being mostly dry up until the late afternoon, then wetter conditions for Friday night into Saturday. Drying out behind the cold front Saturday night. Temperatures slightly cooler Friday in the low to mid 70s, then warmer for Saturday in the upper 70s to low 80s. Some cooler air does move into the area Saturday night with lows dropping to the upper 40s to mid 50s.
AVIATION /01Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/
Winds are expected to become light out of the southeast late this evening and into early Monday Morning. Mid-level clouds will increase early on Monday as a warm front lifts northward through the region. Ceilings will start to drop Monday afternoon with the majority of the region observing a VFR cloud deck between 4k and 6k. A MVFR ceilings will likely build into the CHO terminal ahead of an approaching cold front Monday afternoon. Showers and an isolated thunderstorm will be possible at all terminals tomorrow, but the terminals with the best chance for observing precipitation will be MRB followed by CHO.
Winds will increase out of the south late Monday morning through Monday evening with occasional gusts of 15 to 18 knots possible.
On Tuesday, low level clouds are expected to break up and be replaced by a mid to high level broken cloud deck over all terminals with winds becoming light out of the west to northwest. VFR conditions expected on Tuesday.
VFR conditions are likely to prevail Wednesday into Thursday as broad high pressure over the area maintains dry conditions.
MARINE
SubSCA conditions are likely through this evening with winds generally out of the southeast over all waters. A warm front will lift northward through our marine areas on Monday leading to an increasing flow out of the south to southwest. Southerly channeling winds will lead to the need for Small Craft Advisories Monday afternoon and into Monday Evening. SCA conditions should return on Tuesday.
High pressure moves over, then east of the area Wednesday into Thursday. This likely results in favorable marine conditions across all the waters, with east to southeast winds around 5-10 kt.
