2023 Mid-Atlantic Severe Wx Thread (General Discussion)
yoda replied to Kmlwx's topic in Mid Atlantic
Mesoscale Discussion 1521 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0136 PM CDT Thu Jul 13 2023 Areas affected...Portions of eastern WV...VA...DC...western/central MD...and central/eastern PA Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible Valid 131836Z - 132100Z Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent SUMMARY...Some threat for damaging winds and hail may exist as thunderstorms move eastward this afternoon. The need for a watch remains unclear, but trends will be monitored. DISCUSSION...Scattered thunderstorms have developed this afternoon across parts of the central Appalachians. More isolated activity is attempting to deepen across parts of north-central into northeastern PA, closer to the upper trough over NY and southern Quebec. A surface lee trough is present along/east of the Appalachians/Blue Ridge Mountains, with ample daytime heating acting to steepen low-level lapse rates. Latest mesoanalysis shows a relative minimum in instability along/east of the lee trough across parts of central/eastern VA into central MD and eastern PA. This area appears to have shallower low-level moisture based on area 12Z soundings, and some lingering MLCIN. Still, various RAP/NAM forecast soundings across this region suggest that a well mixed boundary layer will support at least an isolated damaging wind threat with any convection that can spread eastward off the higher terrain this afternoon and evening. Around 25-35 kt of deep-layer shear should also foster some thunderstorm organization, with multicells to marginal supercells possible. Some hail may occur with the strongest cores. With better large-scale ascent focused farther north across NY and New England, overall thunderstorm coverage remains uncertain. The need for a Severe Thunderstorm Watch this afternoon is also unclear, but observational trends will be closely monitored. ..Gleason/Bunting.. 07/13/2023 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Excessive Rainfall Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 353 PM EDT Sat Jul 08 2023 Day 2 Valid 12Z Sun Jul 09 2023 - 12Z Mon Jul 10 2023 ...THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL FOR PORTIONS OF THE MID-ATLANTIC INTO WESTERN NEW ENGLAND... ...20Z Update... ...Mid-Atlantic through New England... In coordination with all the forecast offices from DC/Baltimore north through New England, a Moderate Risk area was introduced with this afternoon's update for portions of the Mid-Atlantic into western New England. All guidance continues to hone in on a corridor of heavy rainfall caused by numerous training showers and thunderstorms developing across the Moderate Risk area Sunday afternoon for southern and western areas, then progressing through New England Sunday Night. Expect a widespread 2-4 inch event especially from eastern PA north through VT. However local amounts are likely to exceed 6 inches of rain, with the most likely areas for the higher rainfall totals through the Catskills/Poconos of NY/PA and also through the Green Mountains of VT. Much of this area has been very hard hit in recent days with heavy rainfall, with a large area over 300% of climatological normal rains per 2-week AHPS data. Adding a stalling front into the mix which will allow for training of abnormally high moisture air on the order of PWATs to 1.75 inches makes for a likely scenario for flash flooding, especially when adding terrain influences into the mix. With the full day's worth of HREF data first available at 12Z, it's notable that portions of east central VT have a 30% chance of exceeding 100-year annual return intervals for the amount of rain expected, with the Catskills/Poconos and Green Mountains all over 70% chance of exceeding 3 and 6 hour FFGs Sunday afternoon and evening. The steady signal of widespread rain and good model agreement on both timing and areal amounts added enough confidence to the forecast to upgrade to the Moderate Risk for this update. -

Watch coming soon... 95% per SPC MCD https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md1401.html Mesoscale Discussion 1401 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1242 PM CDT Mon Jul 03 2023 Areas affected...Portions of the Mid-Atlantic Concerning...Severe potential...Severe Thunderstorm Watch likely Valid 031742Z - 031945Z Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent SUMMARY...Scattered storms will develop in a hot, moist environment. Scattered damaging winds and isolated large hail will be possible. One or more severe thunderstorm watches are likely for much of the Mid-Atlantic in the next 1-2 hours. DISCUSSION...Early-afternoon satellite imagery shows developing cumulus along the Appalachians. Some stable billow clouds remain in central/northern Virginia, but they have shown a dissipating trend over the last hour. Farther south, a weak MCV is slowly moving east in central North Carolina. Some convection has recently developed along the northeastern flank of this feature where temperatures are in the low 90s F. Due to modest rising mid-level heights, it seems that convection may still take some time to mature, with the MCV-related storms potentially being an exception. Modest mid-level winds remaining across the region (diminishing with southward extent) will lead to 30-35 kts of effective shear. Strong surface heating and dewpoints in the upper 60s to low 70s F will support 1000-2000 J/kg MLCAPE (greater with southward extent). Scattered thunderstorms are expected over the next few hours with the potential for strong/severe wind gusts. Large hail is possible with supercell structures, but will be more isolated in nature. A severe thunderstorm watch is likely for much of the Mid-Atlantic region in the next 1-2 hours. ..Wendt/Grams.. 07/03/2023 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
