Weather forecast office sourcewfo_sourceNewspaper
Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA weak upper level disturbance arriving from the Ohio River Valley moved across the central Appalachians during the afternoon and evening, contributing to the atmospheric instability provided by strong surface heating that allowed afternoon temperatures to climb into the mid to upper 80s across the mountains, and into the lower to mid 90s east of the Blue Ridge. Downdraft CAPE values were observed in the 1000 to 1200 J/Kg range by late afternoon across the Piedmont of Virginia. Mid-level winds ahead of the approaching disturbance approached 30 knots, which supported multi-cellular cluster storms.
