    Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC 229 PM EDT Mon Apr 15 2024 .SYNOPSIS... A cold front will drop southward through the area tonight, before returning northward as a warm front on Wednesday. A strong cold front will move through this weekend, with high pressure building in early next week. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... Severe Thunderstorrm Watch #109 is valid until 10 PM since it covers most of VA to the NC border, although storms are likely to exit our forecast around 7 PM. Very steep mid-level lapse rates of around 8C/km due to 500 mb temps of around -20C were observed on earlier upper air data and more recent MetOp-C NUCAPS data. This will contribute to a very favorable environment for large hail perhaps approaching significant hail up to 2 inches in diameter. Storms will be fast movers moving around 35 knots and given large dewpoint depressions and strond mid-level flow may be also capable of producing strong to damaging winds. Storms should exit our CWA by 8 PM, likely a little sooner than that. Rapidly clearing skies are expected later this evening behind exiting cold front. High pressure builds over the area overnight into Tue morning with quiet conditions overnight through Tue morning.
