AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
310 PM EDT SAT MAY 31 2008

.SYNOPSIS...

THE COMBINATION OF A WARM AND UNSTABLE AIRMASS AND A LEE SIDE
TROUGH WILL PROMOTE THE DEVELOPMENT OF SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON. THE CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS WILL
CONTINUE ON SUNDAY AFTERNOON AS THE AIRMASS STAYS UNSTABLE AND A
WEAK FRONT ENTERS THE REGION. DRIER WEATHER RETURNS FOR MONDAY AND
TUESDAY AS WEAK HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 240 PM SATURDAY...

WE CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE POTENTIAL FOR CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT
ACROSS THE REGION THIS AFTERNOON INTO EARLY THIS EVENING. SPC
MESOANALYSIS PAGE SHOWS SBCAPES EXCEEDING 3000 J/KG ACROSS THE
MAJORITY OF CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA AS DEWPOINTS REMAIN IN THE
UPPER 60S/LOWER 70S WITH TEMPS CLIMBING INTO THE UPPER 80S TO NEAR
90 DEGREES. ALL THAT IS NEEDED NOW SOME SORT OF TRIGGER. LARGE
SCALE FORCING WILL STAY TO OUR NORTH THROUGH THE REST OF DAY. IN
FACT... CU DEVELOPMENT HAS BEEN DELAYED DUE TO SUBSIDENCE IN THE
WAKE OF THE WEAK VORT MAX THAT MOVE THROUGH EARLIER TODAY. THE
ONLY TRIGGER TO BE FOUND IS IN THE FORM A LEE SIDE TROUGH
CURRENTLY LOCATED ACROSS THE FOOTHILLS OF THE MOUNTAINS. LOW LEVEL
CONVERGENCE ALONG THIS TROUGH SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT TO GENERATE
CONVECTION BY LATE THIS AFTERNOON. ANY CONVECTION THAT DEVELOPS
WILL TRANSLATE EAST INTO CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA THROUGH EARLY THIS
EVENING.

THERE IS STILL THE POTENTIAL FOR A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS. SPC MESOANALYSIS DEPICTS EFFECTIVE SHEAR INCREASING
TO NEAR 40 KT... PRIMARILY ACROSS THE NORTHWEST AND NORTHERN
PIEDMONT. THIS IS SUFFICIENT FOR MULTICELLULAR CLUSTERS AND
PERHAPS FEW BETTER ORGANIZED STORMS. DAMAGING WIND GUSTS APPEAR TO
BE THE PRIMARY SEVERE WEATHER THREAT AS 0-3KM LAPSE RATES NEAR 8
C/KM THIS AFTERNOON. THE MORE ORGANIZED STORMS WILL ALSO CARRY A
LARGE HAIL POTENTIAL... BUT THIS THREAT WILL BE MITIGATED WITH
700-500 MB LAPSE RATES GENERALLY 5.5 TO 6 C/KM AND THE WET BULB
ZERO AROUND 12 KFT.

THE CURRENTLY PLAN IS TO MAINTAIN THE CURRENT POP CONFIGURATION...
HIGHEST CHANCES NW THIS AFTERNOON... SHIFTING EAST THIS EVENING.
HOWEVER... DEPENDING ON SATELLITE AND RADAR TRENDS... MAY ADJUST
DOWNWARD IF CONVECTIVE INITIATION DOES NOT OCCUR BEFORE THE
ISSUANCE OF THE FORECAST.

ANY CONVECTION THAT DEVELOPS WILL LINGER THROUGH THE EVENING
HOURS...SLOWLY DIMINISHING AS THE NIGHT THE NIGHT PROGRESSES WITH
THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING. THE CONTINUED PRESENCE OF THE LEE
TROUGH ACROSS THE AREA OVERNIGHT ALONG WITH A MOIST AIRMASS...
WARRANTS KEEPING A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS IN THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS. A HUMID NIGHT IS IN STORE WITH THE DEVELOPMENT OF
PATCHY FOG LIKELY... ESPECIALLY IN ANY AREAS THAT RECEIVE
RAINFALL. LOWS WILL ONLY DROP INTO THE UPPER 60S BY MORNING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 245 PM SATURDAY...

A WEAK COLD FRONT...CURRENTLY LOCATED FROM WESTERN NEW YORK TO
CENTRAL MISSOURI...WILL CATCH UP WITH THE LEE SIDE TROUGH AND
BECOME ORIENTED ACROSS CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA DURING THE DAY
SUNDAY. THE BEST INSTABILITY IS PROGGED TO BE LOCATED ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN HALF OF THE CWA... GENERALLY ACROSS THE SANDHILLS AND
SOUTHERN COASTAL PLAIN. SBCAPES IN THESE AREAS SHOULD CLIMB INTO
THE 2000-3000 J/KG RANGE. IN ADDITION... A BROAD UPPER LEVEL
TROUGH WILL MOVE INTO THE NORTHEAST AND MID-ATLANTIC WITH MODEST
HEIGHT FALLS OCCURRING OVER CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA AS THE REGION
RECEIVES A GLANCING BLOW FROM THE TROUGH. THIS SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT
TO GENERATE SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE
REGION...WITH THE BEST POTENTIAL ACROSS THE AFOREMENTIONED AREAS
WITH THE GREATEST INSTABILITY. LOW LEVEL THICKNESSES SUPPORT HIGHS
IN THE MID 80S IN THE FAR NW PIEDMONT TO AROUND 90 FURTHER SOUTH AND
EAST.

ALTHOUGH INSTABILITY WILL BE PLENTIFUL... THE AMOUNT OF SHEAR
APPEARS MARGINAL TO SUPPORT AN ORGANIZED SEVERE WEATHER EVENT.
0-6 KM BULK SHEAR DOES INCREASE TO NEAR 40 KT ACROSS THE SOUTHERN
ZONES TOMORROW AFTERNOON AND THIS WILL SUPPORT MULTICELLULAR
CLUSTERS AND PERHAPS A FEW BETTER ORGANIZED SUPERCELLS. HOWEVER...
IT APPEARS THE BEST SHEAR WILL BE OFFSET TO THE NORTH OF THE
GREATEST INSTABILITY. ALTHOUGH THE NEW DAY 2 SPC OUTLOOK HAS
REMOVED CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA FROM A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE
STORMS... STILL FEEL THERE WILL BE THE POTENTIAL FOR A FEW SEVERE.
0-3 KM LAPSE RATES WILL BE VERY STEEP TOMORROW... GENERALLY
GREATER THAN 7.5 C/KM... SO DAMAGING WIND GUSTS APPEAR TO BE THE
PRIMARY THREAT WITH LARGE HAIL A LESSER CONCERN DUE TO MARGINAL
700-500 MB LAPSE RATES OF AROUND 6 C/KM.

CONVECTION WILL LIKELY LINGER INTO SUNDAY EVENING...BUT SHOULD BE
CLEAR OF THE AREA AFTER MIDNIGHT AS THE SFC FRONT PUSHES OFFSHORE.
WEAK HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE AREA FOR MONDAY AS NORTHWEST
FLOW DEVELOPS ALOFT IN THE WAKE OF THE UPPER TROUGH. THIS WILL
HELP TO COOL OFF TEMPS A FEW DEGREES AS THICKNESSES DROP ABOUT 20M
COMPARED TO THIS WEEKEND. HIGHS GENERALLY IN THE MID 80S.

QUIET WEATHER SHOULD PERSIST INTO TUESDAY. THE NW FLOW QUICKLY
BECOMES MORE ZONAL. HIGH PRESSURE SLIDES OFF THE ATLANTIC COAST
AND WINDS WILL VEER AROUND TO A SOUTHERLY COMPONENT. THIS SERVES
TO WARM HIGH TEMPS BACK INTO THE UPPER 80S WITH INCREASING
HUMIDITY. HAVE KEPT THE FORECAST DRY FOR NOW... BUT THERE IS SOME
UNCERTAINTY IN THE FAR WESTERN PIEDMONT. BOTH THE NAM AND ECMWF
DEPICT A SUBTLE SHORTWAVE TRAVERSING THROUGH THE WESTERLY FLOW AND
APPROACHING WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA BY TUESDAY AFTERNOON. SFC-850
MB FLOW WOULD BE CONDUCIVE FOR UPSLOPE DEVELOPMENT WHICH WOULD BE
AIDED BY THE SHORTWAVE. WILL LEAVE POPS OUT OF THE FORECAST FOR
NOW AND WILL WAIT FOR SOME CONTINUITY IN THE MODELS ON HANDLING
THIS UPPER FEATURE.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 305 PM SATURDAY...

A STRONG UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM OVER THE WESTERN U.S WILL AID IN PUSHING
A FRONTAL SYSTEM EASTWARD THROUGH THE PERIOD. HIGH PRESSURE OFF THE
MID ATLANTIC COAST WILL COMBINE WITH THE ADVANCING SYSTEM TO KEEP
THE REGION IN A WARM MOIST SOUTHERLY FLOW. WEAK UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCES MOVING THROUGH THE SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL AID IN THE
DEVELOPMENT OF MAINLY AFTERNOON AND EVENING THUNDERSTORMS. HIGHS
WILL GENERALLY IN THE UPPER 80S TO LOWER 90S. OVERNIGHT CLOUD COVER
WILL AID IN KEEPING LOWS WILL BE IN THE 60S TO AROUND 70.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 300 PM...

MOIST DEWPOINT AIR IN THE MID 60S TO LOWER 70S COMBINED WITH
AFTERNOON HEATING WITH HIGHS IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S WILL RESULT IN
SCATTERED TO BROKEN CLOUD LAYER FROM 3 TO 5 THOUSAND FEET DURING THE
AFTERNOON. BREEZY SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL REMAIN OVER THE REGION THROUGH
THE AFTERNOON WITH SUSTAINED WINDS OF 10 TO 15 KNOTS AND GUSTS TO 20
TO 25 KNOTS. CLOUD DECK WILL BE MORE SCATTERED AND WINDS
WILL DIMINISH DURING THE EVENING WITH LOST OF HEATING.

THE ATMOSPHERE IS QUITE UNSTABLE...HOWEVER THE LACK OF A TRIGGER HAS
DELAYED DEVELOPMENT OF AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORMS. HOWEVER HAVE CARRIED
VCTS OR CB IN TAFS THROUGH SUNSET.

THROUGH THE BALANCE OF THE TAF PERIOD... MOIST SOUTHWEST FLOW AHEAD
OF COLD FRONT COMBINED WITH UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES MOVING THROUGH
WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL RESULT IN MAINLY SCATTERED AFTERNOON AND
EVENING THUNDERSTORMS EACH DAY... POSSIBLY LOWERING CONDITIONS TO
MVFR IN STRONGER STORMS.

&&

.RAH WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
NONE.
