AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
1021 PM EDT WED APR 11 2007

.SHORT TERM /OVERNIGHT/...
A WARM FRONT HAS WORKED INTO THE EASTERN PORTION OF THE CWA...
WHILE COLD AIR HAS PUSHED INTO THE NW PIEDMONT. AN AREA OF LIGHT
TO MODERATE RAIN WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT...AND TAPER OFF
AFTER MIDNIGHT AS A COLD FRONT SWEEPS ACROSS THE REGION...
MOVING EAST OF THE CWA AFTER SUNRISE THURSDAY.

THE WEDGE OF COLD AIR OVER THE NORTHWEST HAS MADE IT NECESSARY TO
ADJUST TEMPERATURES IN THE REGION. WITH THE RAIN DIMINISHING OVER
THE NORTHWEST WILL DROP POPS TO LIKELY WHERE THEY WERE CATEGORICAL
EARLIER. MINOR CHANGES TO TEMPERATURES CWA-WIDE TO FIT CURRENT
TREND. NO OTHER CHANGES AT THE PRESENT TIME.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...
/ISSUED 303 PM EDT WED APR 11 2007/

SYNOPSIS...

A COASTAL TROUGH WILL SPREAD INLAND OVER FROM SE TO NW THROUGH THE
COASTAL PLAIN AND SANDHILLS AND INTO THE CENTRAL PIEDMONT IN THE
LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH CENTRAL
NC AFTER MIDNIGHT...AND WILL MOVE OFFSHORE THURSDAY MORNING. BY
THURSDAY AFTERNOON...A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT BETWEEN EXITING
SURFACE LOW AND INCOMING WEAK SURFACE HIGH WILL RESULT IN A A BRISK
WESTERLY WIND THAT WILL ADVECT DRY AND SEASONABLY MILD AIR INTO
CENTRAL NC. NEXT WEATHER SYSTEM WILL APPROACH THE AREA LATE
SATURDAY.

SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...

TONIGHT...
THE SE TO NW CAD DEMISE IS SLOWLY BEGINNING TO EVOLVE AS DEWPOINTS
IN THE SOUTHERN COASTAL PLAIN  ARE JUST NOW BEGINNING TO RISE INTO
THE MID TO UPPER 50S WITH TEMPERATURES WARMING INTO THE UPPER 50S TO
LOWER 60S. TOUGH CALL ON HOW MUCH AREAL COVERAGE TO EXPECT LATER
THIS EVENING AS ATLANTIC MARITIME INFLUENCE SPREADS INLAND WITH
COASTAL TROUGH. LOW CAPE...HIGH SHEAR ENVIRONMENT PROGGED BY
SHORT-TERM MODELS WITH ELEVATED CAPE ONLY AROUND 4-500J/KG WITH
LAPSE RATES NOT AS QUITE AS UNSTABLE AS PREVIOUS MODEL
RUNS(6.0-6.15). REVIEW OF 18Z METAR 6HR RAINFALL ACCUMULATIONS
AROUND THE FA...INDICATE THE HIGHER QPF IN THE NW PIEDMONT (NEAR
HALF AN INCH) WORKED OUT RATHER WELL UP TO THIS POINT...AND WILL
CONTINUE WITH THIS TREND INTO THE EVENING HOURS...WITH GREATER
SUPPORT ALOFT FROM UPPER DIFFLUENCE REGION AND BROAD SCALE CYCLONIC
CIRCULATION FROM NEGATIVE TILTING SHORTWAVE TROUGH. WILL GO WITH
ADDITIONAL 0.25 OF AN INCH IN THE NW...SHARPLY DECREASING TO THE SE.
OF COURSE ANY CONVECTION THAT IS ABLE TO DEVELOP WILL RESULT IN
LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS. WILL DECREASE PROBABILITY OF THUNDER IN THE
EAST...TO ISOLATED AS THERE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE ENOUGH SUPPORT TO
WARRANT HIGHER THREAT. SHOWERS EXPECTED TO QUICKLY TAPER OFF AFTER
MIDNIGHT. TEMPERATURES OVERNIGHT WILL BE SLOWLY RISING OR STEADY FOR
MUCH OF THE NIGHT...WITH PERHAPS A SLIGHT COOL DOWN IN THE WEST
LATE. WILL CONTINUE WITH NON-DIURNAL TEMPERATURE CURVE OVERNIGHT.

THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...RAPID CLEAR OUT BEHIND FRONT...WITH MOSTLY
SUNNY SKIES BY MID MORNING. BREEZY THURSDAY AFTERNOON WITH TIGHT
PRESSURE GRADIENT. STATISTICAL MOS GUIDANCE INDICATING 17 TO 20 KTS
OF DRY WESTERLY FLOW. FULL SUN THICKNESSES GIVE HIGHS IN THE
70S...WITH MAYBE SEE ADDITIONAL WARMING FROM SUBSIDENCE WARMING IN
THE WEST. MIXING CONTINUES OVERNIGHT...KEEPING WIND 5 TO 8 KTS...AND
KEEP MIN TEMPERATURES UP AS WELL. LOWS IN THE UPPER 30S TO MID 40S.
WEAK SURFACE RIDGING AND MINOR SHORTWAVE RIDGING ALOFT FOR FRIDAY.
WILL SEE AN INCREASE IN MID AND HIGH CLOUDS LATE IN THE DAY.
OTHERWISE...DRY AND SLIGHTLY COOLER WITH TRAJECTORIES FROM THE NW.
HIGHS 65 TO 70. LOWS FRIDAY NIGHT...LOWER TO MID 40S.

SATURDAY...WAA SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP SATURDAY AFTERNOON
ALONG LIFTING WARM FRONT ACROSS THE AREA...AHEAD OF COLD FRONT.
BULK OF PRECIP TO OCCUR OVERNIGHT. CONTINUED CHANCE POPS...WITH
HIGHEST CHANCE POPS IN THE WEST. LEANED TOWARDS MEAN ENSEMBLE MOS
GUIDANCE ON SATURDAY WITH MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES. HIGHS IN THE 60S.

LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...

DESPITE SOME DIFFERENCES IN THE MODEL FORECAST TRACK OF THE
DEEPENING LOW OVER THE CAROLINAS AND THE MID-ATLANTIC FOR SATURDAY
NIGHT INTO SUNDAY...THE CONSENSUS IS FAIRLY CLEAR AND HAS BEEN
CONSISTENT IN SHOWING HIGH CHANCES FOR SHOWERS WITH CONSIDERABLE
MOISTURE IN THE MEAN OVER CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA.  AT THIS
POINT...WILL INTRODUCE LIKELY CHANCES FOR SHOWERS SATURDAY NIGHT
THROUGH SUNDAY MORNING...WITH CHANCES GRADUALLY TAPERING OFF SUNDAY
AFTERNOON AS THE SURFACE LOW PULLS AWAY TO THE NORTHEAST.  BASED ON
THE VERY LATEST GFS...COULD BE MOVING THE SHOWERS OUT A LITTLE FAST
FOR THE KRWI AND KRZZ AREAS EARLY SUNDAY EVENING...BUT THE END OF
THE PRECIPITATION SHOULD BE SHORTLY AFTER DARK AT THE LATEST.

THE 06Z GFS WAS VERY COLD IN ITS ATMOSPHERIC PROFILE...WITH MODEL
SOUNDINGS FROM THAT SHOWING AN ABOVE FREEZING LAYER ONLY AROUND
1000FT THICK IN THE PIEDMONT BY 18Z SUNDAY AND 1296M THICKNESSES
FROM 1000-850MB OVER THE NORTHWEST PIEDMONT BY 12Z MONDAY.  SURFACE
WET-BULB ZERO TEMPERATURES...HOWEVER...NEVER GOT BELOW 0C.  THE 12Z
GFS HAS TRENDED WARMER...WITH DRY AIR MOVING INTO CENTRAL NORTH
CAROLINA WELL BEFORE THE ABOVE FREEZING LAYER NEAREST THE SURFACE
WOULD BECOME SUFFICIENTLY THIN TO WARRANT CONCERN ABOUT PRECIPITATION
TYPE.  EVEN ON THE 06Z GFS...THERE WAS ENOUGH ELEVATED INSTABILITY
TO CONTINUE MENTIONING THE CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS...AND IF THE
TREND OF THE GFS CONTINUES THERE COULD BE SOME OVERNIGHT STRONG
THUNDERSTORMS SATURDAY WITH WINDS OVER A DEEP LAYER JUST OFF OF THE
SURFACE 40KT OR GREATER.  BY MONDAY MORNING...TEMPERATURES MAY BE AS
COLD AS THE MID 30S IN STRONG COLD-AIR ADVECTION BEHIND THE
DEEPENING LOW.  THE WIND IS EXPECTED TO BE STRONG ENOUGH TO PRECLUDE
FROST...BUT IT SHOULD BE CHILLY ONCE AGAIN AND AT A MINIMUM THOSE
HEADED OUT EARLY MONDAY MORNING SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR A BRISK START.

ALTHOUGH CONDITIONS WILL BE DRY MONDAY INTO TUESDAY...THE MAIN
WEATHER ISSUE THEN WILL BE BREEZY CONDITIONS AND LOWERING DEW
POINTS.  MONDAY SHOULD BE THE BREEZIEST DAY IF THE GFS VERIFIES WITH
ITS 30-35KT WINDS JUST OFF OF THE SURFACE AND A WELL-MIXED BOUNDARY
LAYER.  THERE STILL COULD BE SOME RESIDUAL GUSTINESS TUESDAY.  HIGH
TEMPERATURES WILL AVERAGE BELOW NORMAL.

ANOTHER UPPER LOW IS FORECAST TO MOVE FROM THE PLAINS INTO THE
TENNESSEE VALLEY BY WEDNESDAY NIGHT.  WITH THE RIDGE AXIS FORECAST
TO BE OVERHEAD AT 00Z THURSDAY...CLOUDS WILL BE ON THE INCREASE
BUT THE CHANCES FOR SHOWERS SHOULD HOLD OFF UNTIL THURSDAY MORNING.
BASED ON THE AMPLITUDE OF THE UPPER PATTERN WILL KEEP DRY CONDITIONS
IN THE FORECAST DURING LATE IN THE SEVENTH DAY...ALTHOUGH THE BEST
ALTERNATIVE AT THIS TIME WOULD BE A SMALL CHANCE OF SHOWERS LATE
WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

LOOKING BEYOND THE EXTENDED PERIOD...THE BELOW NORMAL WEATHER REGIME
APPEARS TO CONTINUE INTO THE FOLLOWING WEEKEND.  BY THEN...NORMAL
HIGHS START TO GET WELL INTO THE 70S.  TEMPERATURES THAT WARM WILL
BE DIFFICULT TO COME BY...ESPECIALLY IF THE REALLY LONG-RANGE GFS IS
CORRECT WITH ANOTHER LOW DEVELOPING OVER THE SOUTHEAST AND OFF OF
THE COAST LATE NEXT WEEK.

AVIATION /18Z-18Z/...

IFR CONDITIONS WILL BE THE RULE OVERNIGHT...WITH SOME LIFR
CONDITIONS EXPECTED ESPECIALLY TOWARD THE TRIAD AHEAD OF A WEAK WARM
FRONT MOVING THROUGH OVERNIGHT AS THE COLD AIR DAMMING WEDGE STARTS
TO BREAK DOWN IN CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA.  PERIODS OF RAIN AND
DRIZZLE WILL DIMINISH OVERNIGHT AS A SURFACE TROUGH MOVES EAST AND
SURFACE WINDS QUICKLY SHIFT TO THE SOUTHWEST AND WEST.  FOLLOWING
TROUGH PASSAGE...THE GFS IN ITS LOW-LEVEL RELATIVE HUMIDITY FIELDS
AND MODEL SOUNDINGS QUICKLY DIMINISHES THE BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE
AND WOULD ANTICIPATE A FAIRLY RAPID IMPROVING TREND FROM IFR
CEILINGS TO VFR BETWEEN 06Z AND ABOUT 12Z.  DECENT LOW-LEVEL LAPSE
RATES THURSDAY MORNING WILL LEAD TO GUSTY SURFACE WINDS BY 15Z.

FOR THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS...MENTIONED LOW-LEVEL WIND
SHEAR AT ALL TAF SITES IN CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA.  KRAX WSR-88D
SHOWS WINDS TO BE SOUTHEAST AT AROUND 35KT WITHIN THE FIRST COUPLE
OF THOUSAND FEET OF THE SURFACE.  GIVEN THAT THE SURFACE WINDS ARE...
IN GENERAL...LESS THAN 10KT AND SEVERAL OBSERVATION SITES IN CENTRAL
NORTH CAROLINA ARE FROM THE NORTHEAST AT THE SURFACE...THE MENTION
OF LLWS SEEMS PRUDENT.  925MB WINDS ARE FORECAST TO INCREASE TO
AROUND 40KT EARLY THIS EVENING BEFORE DIMINISHING SOME FOLLOWING THE
PASSAGE OF THE SURFACE TROUGH...BEING JUST UNDER 30KT ACROSS CENTRAL
NORTH CAROLINA BY 12Z THURSDAY...CONTINUING THURSDAY MORNING.

FIRE WEATHER...

IN LIGHT OF TODAYS RAINFALL AND TONIGHTS EXPECTED RAINFALL...
LARGE FUEL MOISTURE LEVELS SHOULD BE ADEQUATE...DESPITE STRONG
MIXING EXPECTED TOMORROW AFTERNOON AND AFTN DEWPOINTS IN THE 30 TO
35 PERCENT RANGE. THEREFORE WILL ONLY MENTION IN HAZARDOUS WEATHER
OUTLOOK (HWO) IN LIEU OF SPECIAL FIRE WX STATEMENT (SPS).
