00Z Aviation Forecast Discussion update.
Elected to extend the Flood Watch across parts of KY, WV, and VA into late Sunday evening to account for the slow departure of the cold front. Across our northern zones, flash flooding concerns diminish after tonight, so the Watch remains on schedule to expire Sunday morning.
KEY MESSAGES
1) Flash flooding concerns spill into Sunday amid a slow departure of a cold front. Slow moving showers and storms containing heavy downpours will exacerbate already saturated soils today and Sunday.
2) Turning dry and warmer for the new week before returning to an unsettled state after Thursday.
DISCUSSION
KEY MESSAGE 1...
Afternoon radar trends have ramped up over the past few hours under the guise of embedded shortwave energy riding along a west-east oriented frontal boundary draped just north of the forecast area. This places the bulk of the Central Appalachians within a humid and unstable environment conducive for the rapid development of showers and storms today into this evening. These slowly propagating cells containing heavy downpours equivalent to 1-3"/hr will provoke already saturated soils and lead to areas of flash flooding. There has already been evidence of these heavy rain producers across parts of southeast Ohio as well as our southern coalfields today, leading to several reports of flooded roadways. Concerns for additional flash flooding continues through the daytime hours before gradually diminishing with the loss of daytime heating.
The quasi-stationary front will slowly propagate southward overnight into Sunday, but will fail to make a full exodus from the area. As a result, shower and storm coverage will appear once more across the southern half of the CWA for Sunday afternoon. With little to no chance for soil recovery across the coalfields, opted to extend the Flood Watch for northeast Kentucky, southern West Virginia, and southwest Virginia through Sunday evening to account for the additional rainfall potential.
Our northern zones will become less susceptible to flash flooding on Sunday in response to the southward trajectory of the frontal boundary, allowing the current Watch to expire Sunday morning.
KEY MESSAGE 2...
Once the frontal boundary slips southward towards the Gulf coast beginning on Monday, drier weather takes hold amid upper level ridging taking center stage. This feature will yield a warming trend, returning afternoon high temperatures into the mid to upper 90s for much of the lower elevations. Coupled with slightly increasing moisture/humidity, heat indices nose up into the upper 90s by midweek. Uncertainty still lies in the latter half of the week forecast period, where periodic disturbances bring unsettled weather back to the area.
AVIATION /06Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/
A combination of low stratus, fog, and some light rain will produce a mix of MVFR to LIFR conditions across the area through the early morning. While the northern terminals should improve to VFR during the day, MVFR ceilings and periodic visibility restrictions may persist as more showers and storms develop to the south.
Light and variable winds become easterly during the day.
FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 06Z MONDAY...
FORECAST CONFIDENCE: Low.
ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: Visibilities may fluctuate in fog early this morning. Timing of CIG/VIS improvements and extent of precipitation during the day may vary from the forecast.
