Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC 1127 PM EDT Mon Jun 14 2021
SYNOPSIS. A series of cold fronts will move through the area through mid week. Canadian high pressure will build overhead for much of the second half of the week. Another cold front may approach the area early next week.
NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM TUESDAY MORNING/. A Severe Thunderstorm Watch is in effect until 2AM for central and southern Maryland east of Interstate 95 as well as King George County in Virginia. Previous discussion follows.
A relative min in CAPE has caused lower confidence for locations west of the Blue Ridge Mountains, but a few severe storms are possible this evening due to stronger shear and a boundary dropping in from the north. However, confidence increases for locations east of the Blue Ridge Mountains this evening due to higher amounts of instability. The surface flow has backed to the south ahead of the approaching boundary, and this has caused a southerly flow to increase dewpoints this evening. At the same time, a bay breeze can be seen on radar retrograding west while the boundary from the convection upstream is dropping south. The intersecting boundaries, strong shear around 50 kts, and increasing CAPE suggests that some storms will be severe, with discrete supercells possible. Damaging winds and large hail are the primary threats, but an isolated tornado cannot be ruled out as the low-level shear increases some near the bay breeze and around intersecting boundaries.
A low-end threat for flash flooding persists, especially across the Washington Metro area where convection will be more widespread and co-located with lower FFG. A Flash Flood Watch has been issued for this area. Elsewhere, higher FFG along with a faster storm motion means that confidence is too low for a Flash Flood Watch at this time.
Convection should gradually dissipate late this evening into the overnight as the cold front drops farther south and drier air advects in from the northwest.
SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/. A mid-level trough and associated cold front will move through the CWA Tuesday. This frontal passage will be notably drier, but cannot rule out a few showers with the relatively higher chance (still isolated in nature) up near the Mason-Dixon line. High temperatures Tuesday do look to be about 5 degrees cooler than today and closer to seasonal normals.
Dry and clear Tuesday night with temperatures dipping into the mid 40s across the Allegheny Front. As Canadian high pressure builds in Wednesday, the main story will be the below normal temperatures and low humidity values. The immediate metropolitan areas have the best chance of breaking 80, with the higher elevations out west not making it out of the 60s. Most locations will be in the low to mid 70s.
Come Wednesday night, there could be a few locations that make a run into the upper 30s, mainly across the valleys in the higher terrain of Garrett, western Grant, western Pendleton, and western Highland. Outside of the higher terrain, it will be a good night to open the windows and let in some cool air with low humidity.
LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/. Generally good agreement amongst guidance in regards to the long term period. A deep upper level trough will continue to pivot eastward on Thursday. However, with the trough axis offshore, we'll be under general subsidence, resulting in surface high pressure over the Ohio Valley becoming focused over the region through the end of the week. Seasonably cooler conditions with temperatures in the upper 70s are expected coupled with low humidity. The high will then continue to shift offshore on Friday, inducing a southerly flow which will bring the return of heat and humidity back to the region.
Guidance solutions diverge somewhat in regards to the timing of the next FROPA on Saturday. The ECMWF is a bit earlier than the GFS which would greatly determine how much convective activity develops. There's also question into the progression of the front as some of the guidance including their ensembles indicate the front stalling across the CWA Sunday. If that's the case, then potential for more unsettled weather is possible on Sunday into Monday. Guidance redevelops a Bermuda high just to our east by early next week, thus could see this situation play out correctly. Another area of low pressure may then traverse along said stalled boundary which would set us up for additional unsettled weather in terms of showers and thunderstorms, even the potential for isolated flooding. Will need to monitor trends over the next few days.
AVIATION /04Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/. Some storms across the eastern terminals may be severe with locally damaging wind gusts and large hail being the primary threats. The best chance for strong to severe storms will be through 04z across IAD, DCA, BWI, and MTN. A brief period of MVFR cigs/vsbys are possible overnight, but drier air should allow for VFR conditions most of the time.
Another cold front is expected to push through the region on Tuesday. However that front lacks and significant moisture. Therefore, conditions should remain VFR throughout. High pressure returns for Wednesday and continues through Friday under a westerly flow.
MARINE. SMWs will likely be needed tonight as thunderstorms move across the waters. The most likely time window for storms to move across the waters will be through 2 AM. A Small Craft Advisory is in effect tonight through tomorrow. South to southwest winds this evening will turn northwesterly behind the front later tonight through tomorrow. Northwesterly flow will continue on Wednesday, but winds are expected to be sub- SCA in nature
Generally lighter NW flow thereafter through Thursday night (though another mainly dry front may kick winds up a bit Tuesday night into Wednesday).
Small Craft Advisory conditions are likely Fri afternoon into Sunday.
TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING. Elevated water levels are expected tonight into Tuesday morning, but the flow will turn northwest during this time, so confidence in minor tidal flooding is low.
