NWS Forecaster Discussion
Area forecast discussion National Weather Service Baltimore Maryland/Washington District of Columbia 227 PM EDT Sat may 25 2013 Synopsis... high pressure will build into the middle Atlantic region through the Memorial Day weekend. The high will move offshore Monday...and a warm front will cross the area on Tuesday. An upper ridge then builds through the rest of the week. && Near term /through Sunday/... 17z surface analysis indicated about 1004 mb low pressure in the Gulf of Maine...while 1030 mb high pressure was moving southward through the Great Lakes and into the Ohio Valley. Tight gradient between these two pressure systems have helped to produce another windy day...gusting at or above 25 miles per hour at times. But as high pressure continues to build in through the late afternoon/evening...gusts should diminish particularly around sunset. Have seen few-scattered cumulus development this afternoon particularly along the ridges and northern portion of the County Warning Area. But the atmosphere is relatively dry and stable...so cumulus have been rather flat and have not put much of a Dent in abundant sunshine today. Like wind gusts...any clouds should diminish around sunset...leaving a clear sky overnight. Despite the sunshine and a downsloping flow east of the mountains...temperatures have been slow to rise this afternoon and middle 60s may be as high as we get for many areas. Normal is middle to upper 70s. This will pave the way for another chilly night with minima in the 40s east of the Blue Ridge and 30s west of there. Will continue the frost advisory for The Highlands for minima in the mids 30s...and with winds expected to drop off late tonight. On Sunday...northwest flow continues but it should not be as windy as today and the cool air mass should begin to modify. Therefore...expect temperatures to rebound around 70 in the afternoon with ample sunshine. && Short term /Sunday night through Tuesday/... high pressure is forecast to move off the coast on Memorial Day Monday...resulting in a return flow to develop. May start to see an increase in clouds especially Monday night to the north of a warm front. This warm front will cross the County Warning Area on Tuesday...instigating a more significant warming trend. With the warm front and a return in moisture...there is a small chance of convection late Monday night into Tuesday...but most areas may wind up staying dry. && Long term /Tuesday night through Saturday/... above normal temperatures are expected middle to late week...perhaps even into the weekend as an upper ridge builds over the eastern states. Under the ridge...subsidence will likely put a lid on convection...however can/T rule out isolated diurnally driven storms over the mountains. && Aviation /17z Saturday through Wednesday/... wind will be the weather-related aviation impact through the rest of the afternoon at the lwx terminals. With good mixing...northwest winds of 15 knots will gust to 25 knots for the rest of the afternoon. Gusts diminish after sunset as high pressure builds in from the rest. Aside from a small chance of thunderstorms Tuesday...no significant weather is expected during the outlook period. && Marine... northwest winds continue this afternoon with low pressure in the Gulf of Maine and high pressure building in from the west. Small Craft Advisory continues...with occasional gusts around 25 knots through the afternoon. Winds diminish some tonight...enough for the Small Craft Advisory over the Upper/Middle tidal Potomac to drop. Will continue with Small Craft Advisory over much of the Bay/lower tidal Potomac into Sunday for 20 knots gusts. High pressure builds in through early next week. Will have to watch southerly flow up the for gusts at or above 15 knots during the middle week. && Fire weather... dewpoints in the 30s will remain over the area this afternoon. As temperatures rise into the middle 60s...this may bring relative humidity values of near 30 percent in some areas. This will occur as winds continue to gust 20 to 25 miles per hour. However...fuel moistures are very high which will limit an enhanced fire risk. && Lwx watches/warnings/advisories... District of Columbia...none. Maryland...frost advisory from midnight tonight to 8 am EDT Sunday for mdz501. Virginia...frost advisory from midnight tonight to 8 am EDT Sunday for vaz503-504. WV...frost advisory from midnight tonight to 8 am EDT Sunday for wvz501-503-505-506. Marine...Small Craft Advisory until 6 PM EDT Sunday for anz530>534- 537>543. Small Craft Advisory until 8 PM EDT this evening for anz535- 536. && $$ Bpp
