...A FLASH FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 100 AM EDT FOR
CENTRAL WAYNE COUNTY...

AT 1033 PM EDT...NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DOPPLER RADAR CONTINUED TO 
INDICATE A THUNDERSTORM PRODUCING RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF ONE TO TWO 
INCHES PER HOUR.  THIS STORM WAS LOCATED NEAR GOLDSBORO...NEARLY 
STATIONARY.

DOPPLER RADAR INDICATES TWO TO FOUR INCHES OF RAIN HAS FALLEN IN AND 
AROUND THE CITY OF GOLDSBORO. COUNTY OFFICIALS REPORTED NUMEROUS 
ROADS FLOODED THROUGHOUT THE CITY.

MOST FLOOD DEATHS OCCUR IN AUTOMOBILES. NEVER DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE INTO
AREAS WHERE THE WATER COVERS THE ROADWAY. FLOOD WATERS ARE USUALLY
DEEPER THAN THEY APPEAR. JUST ONE FOOT OF FLOWING WATER IS POWERFUL
ENOUGH TO SWEEP VEHICLES OFF THE ROAD. WHEN ENCOUNTERING FLOODED 
ROADS MAKE THE SMART CHOICE...TURN AROUND...DONT DROWN.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
958 PM EDT SAT AUG 30 2008

.SYNOPSIS...

A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL MOVE SOUTH THROUGH CENTRAL NC SUNDAY. STRONG
HIGH PRESSURE WILL EXTEND INTO THE STATE FROM THE GREAT LAKES AND
NEW ENGLAND MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...

AS OF 958 PM SATURDAY...

THE STRONG THUNDERSTORMS THAT AFFECTED MAINLY THE NORTHERN PIEDMONT
AND NORTHERN COASTAL PLAIN LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING WERE
FINALLY ON THE WANE AS OF MID EVENING. SEE THE LOCAL STORM REPORTS
FOR THE DETAILS ON THE REPORTS OF FLOODING... HAIL... AND WIND.

THE FOCUS OF CONVECTION APPEARS TO BE SHIFTING INTO THE CENTRAL
COASTAL PLAIN IN THE VICINITY OF BENSON AND GOLDSBORO. THIS AREA WAS
MOST FAVORED FOR STRONG CONVECTION WITH VERY HEAVY RAINFALL THROUGH
AT LEAST 1200 AM. A STRONG OUTFLOW BOUNDARY CONTINUED TO SURGE
SOUTHWARD INTO HARNETT... SOUTHERN JOHNSTON... AND WAYNE COUNTIES...
WHERE THE STRONGEST INSTABILITY REMAINED. AS THE OUTFLOW CONTINUES
TO PUSH SOUTHWARD... A WEST TO EAST BAND OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL
CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AND AFFECT MUCH OF WAYNE AND JOHNSTON
COUNTIES... MAINLY JUST SOUTH OF SMITHFIELD EAST THROUGH GOLDSBORO.

THIS LINE OF STORMS WILL HAVE SURFACE DEW POINTS IN THE MID 70S
ALONG WITH PRECIPITABLE WATERS OF NEARLY 2 INCHES TO WORK WITH. DUE
TO THE VERY WEAK MEAN STEERING FLOW FROM THE WEST AT 5 KNOTS...
EXPECT SOME VERY HEAVY RAINFALL AS THE STORMS WILL CONTINUE TO SHOW
LITTLE MOVEMENT... AND THE RAINFALL RATES WILL BE IN EXCESS OF 2
INCHES PER HOUR. THIS MAY BE ENOUGH TO RESULT IN FLASH FLOODING FOR
PORTIONS OF WAYNE... JOHNSTON... AND POSSIBLY NORTHERN SAMPSON
COUNTY BETWEEN 1000 PM AND 100 AM. THE STORMS MAY BACKBUILD INTO
PORTIONS OF SOUTHEASTERN HARNETT AND/OR CUMBERLAND COUNTIES AS WELL.

OTHERWISE... NO MAJOR CHANGES TO THE FORECAST OVERNIGHT. THE COLD
FRONT WAS LOCATED WELL NORTH OF THE STATE. THIS FRONT WILL NOT
ARRIVE INTO OUR REGION UNTIL DURING THE DAY SUNDAY. ALTHOUGH THERE
MAY STILL BE SOME ISOLATED SHOWERS/THUNDER OVERNIGHT... IT APPEARS THE MAIN
ACTION WILL BE FOCUSED IN OUR SE COUNTIES. WE WILL MAINTAIN HIGH POP
SE... WITH ONLY ISOLATED ELSEWHERE OVERNIGHT.

A RELATIVELY WET GROUND WITH DEW POINTS BETWEEN 68-73... CALM
WINDS... AND CLEARING SKIES... EXPECT WIDESPREAD FOG... SOME LOCALLY
DENSE BETWEEN 08Z-12Z SUNDAY MORNING. -BADGETT

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION AS OF 230 PM SATURDAY...

MOIST AND MODERATELY UNSTABLE AIR MASS OVER CENTRAL NC IN
CONJUNCTION WITH A WEAKENING SHEAR AXIS ALOFT HAS TRIGGERED
ISOLATED CONVECTION AS OF 18Z. EXPECT COVERAGE TO INCREASE THROUGH
23Z THEN SLOWLY DIMINISH. DUE TO THE WEAK WIND FLOW ALOFT AND
PRECIP WATER VALUES AROUND1.75...THE HEAVIER SHOWERS WILL PRODUCE
RAINFALL AMOUNTS APPROACHING TWO INCHES IN LESS THAN AN HOUR. IF
THIS RAIN FALLS OVER URBAN AREAS...THESE LOCALES WILL LIKELY
EXPERIENCE SOME FLOODING OF STREETS AND POOR DRAINAGE AREAS.

AFTER 00Z...AIR MASS WILL SLOWLY STABILIZE. AFTER 04Z...ANY
CONVECTION WILL BE ISOLATED AND MAINLY CONFINED TO THE SOUTHERN
COUNTIES...CLOSER TO UPPER SHEAR AXIS AND WHERE LOW LEVEL
INSTABILITY WILL BE BEST. AS HAD OCCURRED THE PAST COUPLE OF
NIGHTS...EXPECT WIDESPREAD FOG TO DEVELOP OVER MOST OF THE REGION
WITH AREAS OF DENSE FOG LIKELY ESPECIALLY ALONG AND EAST OF A
ALBEMARLE...HILLSBOROUGH...OXFORD LINE. CONFIDENCE NOT HIGH ENOUGH
TO ISSUE A DENSE FOG ADVISORY AT THIS TIME BUT THIS IS SOMETHING
THAT WILL TO BE MONITORED. FAVORED MIN TEMPS A DEGREE OR TWO ABOVE
MOS AS MIN TEMPS HAVE BEEN VERIFYING SLIGHTLY ABOVE MOS GUIDANCE
RECENTLY DUE TO TROPICAL-LIKE AIR MASS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 255 PM SATURDAY...

ON SUNDAY...BEST INSTABILITY PROJECTED TO LIE ACROSS THE SOUTHERN
COUNTIES WITH SURFACE BASED LIFTED INDICES NEAR MINUS 4. THIS TYPE
OF AIR MASS COUPLED WITH WEAK SHEAR AXIS ALOFT AND OUTFLOW
BOUNDARIES FROM CONVECTION THAT OCCURS SATURDAY EVENING SHOULD BE
ABLE TO INITIATE AND SUSTAINED SCATTERED CONVECTION. WITH DEVELOPING
LOW LEVEL ELY FLOW...MAY SEE ADDITIONAL INFLUENCE FROM THE SEABREEZE
AS WELL. PREVIOUS FORECAST OF SLIGHT CHANCE FAR NORTH TO BETTER
CHANCE SOUTH STILL LOOKS GOOD. THICKNESSES SUGGEST MAX TEMPS
COMPARABLE TO TODAY.

SUNDAY NIGHT...STRENGTHENING HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE GREAT LAKES
WILL PUSH A BACKDOOR FRONT SOUTHWARD ACROSS THE REGION. THIS FEATURE
MAY SUSTAIN ISOLATED TO SCATTERED CONVECTION WELL INTO SUNDAY
EVENING.

ON MONDAY...HIGH PRESSURE NEAR SURFACE AND ALOFT BEGINS TO BUILD
OVER THE REGION. ASSOCIATED SUBSIDENCE AND ADVECTION OF DRIER AIR
NEAR SURFACE WILL RESULT IN PLENTY OF SUN. 850MB THERMAL TROUGH
PROJECTED TO NUDGE INTO REGION FROM THE NE. LOW LEVEL THICKNESSES
PROGGED TO BE ABOUT 15M LOWER MONDAY AFTERNOON COMPARED TO SUN.
THIS SHOULD CORRESPOND TO MAX TEMPS ABOUT 5 DEGREES COOLER ON
MONDAY. (A NICE WAY TO END THE SUMMER SEASON).

RIDGE WILL MAINTAIN PRESENCE OVER THE AREA MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY
NIGHT. THIS WILL RESULT IN DRY WEATHER WITH TEMPS FAIRLY CLOSE TO
NORMAL.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS 230 PM SATURDAY...

AT THE START OF THE PERIOD...DEEP LAYER RIDGING IN PLACE OVER THE
MID-ATLANTIC BEGINS TO BREAK DOWN...AS REMNANTS OF GUSTAV...A
NORTHERN PLAINS SHORTWAVE TROUGH LIFTS NORTH INTO SOUTHERN CANADA
AND A CLOSED UPPER LOW OVER THE NORTHEAST MARITIMES...DELIVER
GLANCING BLOWS TO THE ONCE DOMINANT ANTICYCLONE.

THE EVENTUAL TRACK OF TROPICAL CYCLONE HANNA AND WHAT IMPACTS IT
WILL HAVE ON ALL OF THE SOUTHEAST INCLUDING NORTH CAROLINA WILL
DEPEND ON JUST HOW FAST DOES THE MID AND UPPER RIDGE BREAK DOWN
ACROSS THE REGION...AND IT IS HERE THAT BOTH DYNAMIC AND TROPICAL
MODELS BEGIN TO DISPLAY LARGE SPREAD AND UNCERTAINTY.

HPCS 7 DAY COORDINATES IS SLOWER THAN BOTH THE EC AND GFS...WHICH
IS HIGHLY JUSTIFIABLE GIVEN THE LARGE SPREAD AND
UNCERTAINTY...KEEPS HANNA OVER FLORIDA...WELL SOUTH OF THE AREA.
WILL INTRODUCE LOW CHANCE POPS BOTH FRIDAY AND SATURDAY GIVEN DEEP
EASTERLY FETCH OFF THE ATLANTIC. TEMPERATURES DROPPING OFF TO MORE
SEASONABLE READINGS AS MARITIME INFLUENCE INCREASES.

ALL INTERESTS FROM NORTHERN GULF TO THE SOUTHEASTERN US SHOULD
CLOSELY MONITOR THE LATEST OFFICIAL FORECAST INFORMATION AND
GUIDANCE W/REGARDS TO TROPICAL SYSTEMS...AT WWW.NHC.NOAA.GOV

&&

.AVIATION /18Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...

AS OF 215 PM SATURDAY...

CLOUD BASES HAVE RISEN TO VFR CONDITIONS AT GSO
AND INT...BUT LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND FOG/STRATUS BURN OFF FROM
THIS MORNING HAS KEPT FEW TO SCT BASES JUST BELOW 3000 FT ACROSS
THE EAST AND SOUTHEAST. INSTABILITY HAS ALSO INCREASED ACROSS THE
AREA...WITH CAPE VALUES REACHING 2500+ J/KG IN THE EAST. SO
FAR...ONLY A COUPLE SMALL SHOWERS HAVE FORMED SOUTH OF GSO/INT.
EXPECT THE COVERAGE OF THUNDERSTORMS TO INCREASE THIS
AFTERNOON...AND THUS ANY TERMINAL COULD SEE BRIEF MVFR TO IFR
CONDITIONS. WHERE THUNDERSTORMS DO OCCUR...SLOW MOVEMENT WILL
CAUSE FLIGHT RULE CONDITIONS TO PERSIST FOR HALF AN HOUR TO AN
HOUR OR LONGER. CONVECTION WILL EVENTUALLY DIE OFF AFTER SUNSET.

TONIGHT...WITH NO AIRMASS CHANGE FROM LAST NIGHT AND A WEAK BOUNDARY
LAYER WINDS...EXPECT SIGNIFICANT VISIBILITY RESTRICTIONS ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN PIEDMONT AND SANDHILLS.  IN ADDITION...RAINFALL AT A
TERMINAL THIS EVENING WILL INCREASE CHANCES OF IFR/LIFR CONDITIONS.

SUNDAY...SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING INTO NEW ENGLAND WILL BEGIN
TO EXTEND DOWN THE EASTERN SEABOARD AND PUSH A WEAK BACKDOOR COLD
FRONT SOUTH TOWARD THE AREA.  BEFORE THE FRONT PUSHES THROUGH... A
SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM WILL BE POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY AT SOUTHERN
TERMINALS IN A CONTINUED MUGGY AIRMASS

LOOKING AHEAD...UPPER-LEVEL RIDGE AND SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL
DOMINATE WEATHER CONDITIONS THROUGHOUT THE MID ATLANTIC REGION
THROUGH MIDWEEK...WITH PREDOMINATELY VFR CONDITIONS.

RICHMOND-SCOTLAND-HOKE-CUMBERLAND-SAMPSON-
1008 AM EDT SAT AUG 30 2008

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT.

ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP THIS
AFTERNOON IN ASSOCIATION WITH AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE OVER
SOUTH CAROLINA. A FEW STORMS MAY BECOME STRONG...AND AN ISOLATED
SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WITH A PRIMARY THREAT OF DAMAGING WINDS AND
PENNY SIZE HAIL IS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION. THE BEST CHANCE FOR
STRONG THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE IN THE SOUTHWEST PIEDMONT...
SANDHILLS...AND SOUTHEAST COASTAL PLAIN...BETWEEN 1 PM AND 9 PM.

ADDITIONALLY...DUE TO VERY WEAK FLOW ALOFT...ANY STORMS THAT DEVELOP
THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING WILL BE SLOW MOVING OR NEARLY
STATIONARY. THIS WILL LEAD TO LOCALLY TORRENTIAL RAINFALL WITH A
THREAT OF MINOR FLOODING...PARTICULARLY IF ANY STORMS DEVELOP
OVER URBAN AREAS.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY.

HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS NOT EXPECTED AT THIS TIME.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SKYWARN SPOTTERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO REPORT ANY SEVERE OR
SIGNIFICANT WEATHER ASSOCIATED WITH THE STORMS THROUGH THIS EVENING.
