WEATHER SUMMARY FOR THE CENTRAL APPALACHIANS AND MIDDLE OHIO VALLEY
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
401 AM EDT FRI AUG 21 2009
.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION TODAY...GENERATING ANOTHER
ROUND OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. MUCH OF THE SHOWER AND
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL GRADUALLY DECREASE BY THE
AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY OVER SOUTHEAST OHIO AND AREAS NEAR TO THE
OHIO RIVER. HOWEVER...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE FOR
MUCH OF THE DAY AND OVERNIGHT OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN.
AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE KEEPS THE SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM
POSSIBILITY GOING OVER THE WEEKEND...ALTHOUGH THIS SHOULD BE
CONFINED TO THE AFTERNOON HOURS BY SUNDAY. MORE IMPORTANTLY...THE
WEEKEND WILL FEATURE LOWER HUMIDITY ALONG WITH SOMEWHAT COOLER
WEATHER...A WELCOME RELIEF FOR MOST FROM THE VERY MUGGY WEATHER OF
LATE.
THE DRY AND SOMEWHAT COOLER WEATHER WILL PREVAIL EARLY NEXT WEEK PER
HIGH PRESSURE...WITH RAIN FINALLY OUT OF THE FORECAST ALTOGETHER.

.NEAR TERM IMPACTS /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAY PRODUCE PONDING OF WATER
AND HYDROPLANING ON ROADS...SWOLLEN STREAMS AND CREEKS...AND POOR
DRAINAGE OF LOW LYING AREAS.
THE STRONGEST THUNDERSTORMS COULD PRODUCE WIND GUSTS CAPABLE OF
TREE DAMAGE...POWER FLUCTUATIONS OR EVEN OUTAGES...AND PERHAPS
BLOCKING OF ROADS FROM DEBRIS.
&&
.SHORT TERM IMPACTS /SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
NO SIGNIFICANT WEATHER IMPACTS EXPECTED AT THIS TIME.
