AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Charleston WV 703 AM EDT Wed Apr 23 2025
SYNOPSIS
High pressure promotes dry weather today with rebounding daytime temperatures. A disturbance arrives late in the work week.
NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/
As of 700 AM Wednesday...
Cooled morning temperatures and reduced morning dew points based on current obs. With a substantially dry airmass aloft to mix into and full sunshine, expect afternoon well mixed dew points to come in well under central guidance. Have reduced dew points and slightly increased temperatures this afternoon to better reflect the airmass quality. This yields afternoon relative humidity values in the upper teens to mid 20s across most of the lower elevations. Given light winds and the state of the green-up, not expecting too much in the way of fire weather problems, but dead fuels will still readily carry fire.
As of 540 AM Wednesday...
Some clearing allowed for temperatures to drop a bit more than anticipated in spots this morning, so adjusted down accordingly.
Otherwise, rest of the forecast remains in good shape.
As of 130 AM Wednesday...
Dry weather prevails today under the guise of surface high pressure and departing ridging aloft. Clearing skies will establish slightly warmer temperatures this afternoon in comparison to Tuesday, with highs across the lowlands rebounding into the low 80s and the 60s/low 70s along the spine of the Appalachians.
A stalled frontal boundary to our south may loft isolated showers and perhaps a rumble of thunder into the coalfields during peak heating hours, but latest hi-res guidance suggests this will be a low end chance below 20 percent. Otherwise, another quiet night will be on tap tonight as the surface high slides east into the Delmarva region.
SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/
As of 310 AM Wednesday...
Key Points: * Precipitation chances creep into the area late Thursday.
* Showers and storms become more widespread on Friday.
On Thursday, moisture increases and temperatures rise above normal while a warm front edges north towards the area. Scattered showers should begin to develop, along with thunderstorms, particularly as the environment becomes less stable during the afternoon and evening hours. Some precipitation may then persist as the warm front wanders north Thursday night into Friday morning.
Southerly flow continues to transport moisture into the area behind the warm front, while a system ushers a cold front towards the area from the west. Widespread rain and thunderstorms are likely to envelop the area ahead of the cold front Friday into Friday night.
One to one and a half inch precipitable water values may support moderate to heavy showers at times, thus, a marginal risk of excessive rainfall is present for much of the area on Friday.
However, the probability of severe weather remains low.
LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/
As of 310 AM Wednesday...
Key Points: * Drier after a cold front crosses Saturday.
* Another disturbance arrives for the new work week.
A cold front crosses the area Saturday morning, then moisture gradually erodes from northwest to southeast following the departure of the front. High pressure builds in from the north late Saturday and then remains in control through Sunday, resulting in a drier finish to the weekend.
An approaching disturbance brings moisture and precipitation chances back to the area during the first half of the new work week, although some models suggest drier conditions could continue into Monday.
AVIATION /12Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/
As of 540 AM Wednesday...
High pressure on tap for today will yield VFR conditions through the period. High cirrus passing overhead this morning will clear out for the afternoon and into tonight.
Calm winds overnight will become light out of the northeast this morning. Gradient winds will gradually veer out of the southeast later in the day into tonight. A slight uptick in winds above the surface will mitigate any opportunities for fog overnight.
