AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
745 AM EDT SAT SEP 6 2008

.SYNOPSIS...TROPICAL STORM HANNA HAS MOVED ONSHORE NEAR NORTH
MYRTLE BEACH AND WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE NORTH NORTHEAST ACROSS THE
COASTAL PLAIN OF NORTH CAROLINA THIS MORNING AND EARLY THIS
AFTERNOON.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
AS OF 335 AM EDT SATURDAY...

HANNA MAKING LANDFALL NEAR NORTH MYRTLE BEACH AND WILL CONTINUE TO
MOVE NORTH ACROSS THE COASTAL PLAIN OF NORTH CAROLINA. WHILE WIND
SPEEDS SO FAR HAVE NOT REACHED HIGH WIND WARNING CRITERIA...HAVE
RECEIVED REPORTS OF SPORADIC POWER OUTAGES AND REPORTS OF TREES
DOWN IN PLACES. WITH HANNA STILL TO OUR SOUTH AND ITS RELATIVELY
FAST NORTHWARD TRANSLATION....RELUCTANT TO CANCEL THE HIGH WIND
WARNING AT THIS TIME. PREFER TO LEAVE WIND ADVISORY/HIGH WIND
WARNINGS AS IS UNTIL CENTER OF HANNA HAS PROGRESSED FARTHER NWD
AND WINDS IN OUR REGION HAVE BACKED TO A MORE W-NW FLOW.

NEXT CONCERN THROUGH AT LEAST 12Z (AND PROBABLY FOR A FEW HOURS
BEYOND) WILL BE HEAVY RAIN. BAND OF HEAVY RAIN CURRENTLY ALONG THE
HIGHWAY 1 CORRIDOR PRODUCING RAINFALL RATES OF 1.5 INCHES PER
HOUR. MAX UPPER LEVEL DIVERGENCE OVER REGION AT THIS TIME AND THIS
FEATURE PROGGED TO LIFT NWD BY 12Z. BULK SHEAR IN THE 850-300MB OF
30-40KTS STILL GENERALLY ALIGNED ALONG THE TRACK...FAVORING A HEAVY
RAIN AXIS NEAR OR TO THE LEFT OF THE TRACK. THUS...APPEARS HEAVY
RAIN AXIS OVER THE PIEDMONT INTO SANDHILLS AND WILL REMAIN NEARLY
STATIONARY THROUGH DAYBREAK THEN LIFT NWD. EXPECT AN ADDITIONAL 2-4
INCHES ON TOP OF THE 1 TO 3 INCHES THAT HAS LIKELY ALREADY FALLEN.
THIS WILL LEAD TO FLOODING OF NUMEROUS CREEKS AND STREAMS. LITTLE
CHANGE REQUIRED TO NEAR TERM FORECAST.

FINALLY...WILL LIKELY SEE AN ENHANCED TORNADO THREAT OVER OUR FAR
SE-EASTERN COUNTIES NEXT FEW HOURS AS HANNA LIFTS NWD. 0-1KM STORM
RELATIVE HELICITY HAS INCREASED DRAMATICALLY AND IS IN EXCESS OF
400 M2/S2. HOWEVER LOW LEVEL INSTABILITY LACKING WITH MUCAPE LESS
THAN 500 J/KG. THUS ONLY ISOLATED WEAK TORNADOES EXPECTED AT THIS
TIME.

AS HANNA CIRCULATION MOVES INTO THE NORTHERN COASTAL PLAIN AT MID
DAY AND THEN INTO SE VA AFTER MID AFTERNOON...W-NW ON THE BACK
SIDE OF THE CIRCULATION WILL ADVECT DRIER AIR INTO
REGION. EXPECT RAIN TO DIMINISH SW TO NE THIS MORNING WITH CLOUDS
DEPARTING LATER IN THE DAY. LITTLE CHANGE TO TEMPS FROM EARLIER
FORECAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 350 AM SATURDAY...

WINDS WILL SUBSIDE AND CLOUDS SLOWLY DEPART THIS EVENING. AIR MASS
DRIES OUT ENOUGH SUNDAY OVER MAJORITY OF FORECAST AREA TO EXCLUDE
MENTION OF POPS. EXCEPTION WILL BE THE FAR S-SE WHERE A LINGERING
SURFACE TROUGH AND RESIDUAL MOISTURE WILL SUPPORT ISOLATED
CONVECTION. THICKNESSES SUPPORT MAX TEMPS ABOUT 5 DEGREES ABOVE
NORMAL.

ON MONDAY...MID LEVEL SHEAR AXIS ENTERS REGION WITH INCREASING LOW
LEVEL INSTABILITY (-3 TO -4 BY AFTERNOON) ALONG WITH  MID LEVEL
LAPSE RATES AROUND 6 DEG C/KM. WILL MENTION SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FOR
NOW.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 420 AM SATURDAY...

HAVE MADE A FEW CHANGES TO THE FORECAST IN THIS PERIOD. BOTH ECMWF
AND GFS SLOWLY DRAG SURFACE BOUNDARY THROUGH THE REGION LATE TUESDAY
INTO WEDNESDAY THEN STALL BOUNDARY NEAR OR JUST SOUTH OF AREA.
MEANWHILE DRY AIR RIDGE NOSES SWD FROM PARENT HIGH OVER NEW ENGLAND.
PARENT HIGH RATHER WEAK (1027MB) BUT PATTERN SIGNALS POTENTIAL FOR
CAD EVENT. 850MB FLOW REMAIN S-SE THROUGH EVENT WHICH SHOULD RESULT
IN OVERCAST SKIES AND POTENTIAL FOR SOME RAIN. IF MODEL GUIDANCE IN
LATER RUNS REMAIN CONSISTENT...WILL NEED TO INCREASE POPS. HAVE
LOWERED TEMPS A FEW DEGREES FROM PREVIOUS FORECAST BUT IF CAD EVENT
DOES MATERIALIZE...MAX TEMPS WED AND THU MAY END UP BEING 5-7
DEGREES COOLER THAN FORECAST.

&&

.AVIATION /12Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 745 AM SATURDAY...
HANNAS CIRCULATION CENTER IS QUICKLY TRACKING NORTH ACROSS THE
CENTRAL COASTAL PLAIN. WIDESPREAD LIFR TO IFR CEILINGS WILL CONTINUE
THROUGH MID TO LATE MORNING...WITH VISIBILITY RESTRICTIONS
RESTRICTED TO IFR IN THE HEAVIER RAIN BANDS. HIGH WIND GUSTS RANGING
FROM 45KTS AT FAY AND RWI TO 25 KNOTS AT GSO AND INT WILL BE OF
CONCERN AS WELL.

CONDITIONS WILL QUICKLY IMPROVE TO VFR FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST
BY MIDDAY...AS HANNAS DEEPER MOISTURE SHIELD LIFTS NORTH OF THE
AREA. MOSTLY CLEAR TO FAIR SKIES ARE EXPECTED BY THE EVENING...WITH
WINDS SUBSIDING TO 3 TO 5 KTS. THESE CONDITIONS COMBINED WITH
SATURATED SOILS WILL MAKE LOCALLY DENSE FOG OVERNIGHT...ESPECIALLY
AT RDU...RWI...AND FAY WHERE 3 TO 5 INCHES HAS FALLEN.

OTHERWISE...MOSTLY VFR CONDITIONS FORECAST FROM SUNDAY ONWARD...
WITH THE EXCEPTION OF MORNING FOG.
