.WHAT HAS CHANGED...
Aviation updated.
QPF amounts look quite low for the Sunday/Monday system and the
midweek system.
Patchy frost in the mountains Tuesday morning.
&&
.KEY MESSAGES...
1) A couple of systems to bring shower chances but rainfall
amounts are limited.
&&
.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...
A few sprinkles or light showers under a scattered to broken
deck of cumulus/altocumulus out there this afternoon with just
modest upper support.
A front arrives Sunday into Monday from the west/northwest.
Since this system is mainly northern stream dominated and lacks
ample flow from the Gulf, am not expecting a lot of rainfall
from it. A few areas may get a quarter inch, but most will be
around a tenth of an inch or less, if at all. Best chances
should be north of U.S. 460 (north of Blacksburg/Roanoke).
Another shot of cooler air arrives Monday night with clearing
skies and lightening winds. Temps drop into the mid to upper 30s
in the mountains, and patchy frost appears likely, but still
will depend on how fast the winds weaken as the high will be
over the central Appalachians/upper Ohio Valley Tuesday morning.
Next front looks to bring another chance for scattered
showers/storms Wednesday. Temperatures will run close to normal
through Friday then warm above normal by next weekend.
&&
.AVIATION /18Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
VFR conditions through the TAF period with scattered to broken
cumulus/altocumulus this afternoon. Southwest winds will gust to
around 20kts at most terminals then weaken after 23z, with SKC
to SCT mid clouds overnight into Sunday morning.
Forecast confidence is high.
EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...
A front arrives late Sunday night, and will bring showers/few
storms to the area, and potential sub-VFR flight conditions
through Monday. However, rain looks to be light. Winds increase
again late Monday behind the front, gusting to around 20 knots.
High pressure then builds back into the area late Monday, with
VFR prevailing through Tuesday. Another system brings showers
into the area for Wednesday, then dry Thursday.
&&
.RNK WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
VA...None.
NC...None.
WV...None.
