...WIND ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 PM EST THIS
AFTERNOON...

A WIND ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 PM EST THIS AFTERNOON. 

A STRONG COLD FRONT WAS MOVING EAST ACROSS CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA
LATE THIS MORNING. VERY STRONG HIGH PRESSURE WAS BUILDING IN THE
REGION BEHIND THE FRONT. THIS WAS CAUSING NORTHWEST WINDS TO GUSTS
AROUND 40 MPH IN THE TRIAD. THESE STRONG GUSTS WILL AFFECT THE
TRIANGLE AFTER 1030 AM...AND INTO THE NORTHERN COASTAL PLAIN BY
MID DAY. SOME LOCATIONS ALONG AND NORTH OF HIGHWAY 64 COULD SEE A
FEW GUSTS TO NEAR 45 MPH ESPECIALLY KERR LAKE...LAKE GASTON...AND
ROANOKE RAPIDS.

FREQUENT NORTHWEST WIND GUSTS UP TO 45 MPH THIS AFTERNOON WILL
POSE A HAZARD TO MOTORISTS. THE NORTHWEST WIND DIRECTION WILL
CREATE A STRONG CROSS WIND ACROSS INTERSTATE 95 AND PORTIONS OF
INTERSTATE 85 NORTH OF DURHAM AND SOUTH OF GREENSBORO.
MOTORISTS...ESPECIALLY THOSE DRIVING VANS...CAMPERS... TRAILERS
AND OTHER HIGH PROFILE VEHICLES...SHOULD EXERCISE CAUTION WHILE
DRIVING IN THE WIND ADVISORY AREA. BE ALERT FOR SUDDEN GUSTS OF
WIND WHICH MAY CAUSE YOU TO LOSE CONTROL OF YOUR VEHICLE.

A WIND ADVISORY MEANS THAT STRONG WIND GUSTS WILL BE CAPABLE OF
BRINGING DOWN A FEW TREE LIMBS AND POSING A HAZARD TO MOTORISTS.
USE EXTRA CAUTION TODAY WHILE DRIVING.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
207 AM EST WED DEC 31 2008

SYNOPSIS...

A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA THIS MORNING
RESULTING IN STRONG GUSTY WINDS FROM MID MORNING THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON. IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT MUCH COLDER AIR WILL SURGE
INTO THE REGION WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. FOR THE FIRST OF THE NEW
YEAR...TEMPERATURES WILL ONCE AGAIN FEEL LIKE WINTER UNDER CLEAR
SKIES.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/...
AS OF 200 AM WEDNESDAY...

THE STRONG COLD FRONT IS PUSHING ITS WAY ACROSS KY AND TN EARLY
THIS MORNING AND WILL REACH THE TRIAD SHORTLY AFTER DAYBREAK. THE
INITIAL WIND SHIFT TO THE NW WILL NOT BE ALL THAT SIGNIFICANT FROM
12Z-14Z...HOWEVER AFTER 15Z THE COLDER AND DRIER AIR SURGES INTO
CENTRAL NC VERY RAPIDLY. THE FRONT WILL QUICKLY SWEEP ACROSS THE
ENTIRE CWA BY 15Z. THE COLD AIR ADVECTION BEHIND THE FRONT IS VERY
STRONG AND 1000-850 MB THICKNESSES FALL NEARLY 50 METERS THROUGH
THE DAY. A STRONG MID LEVEL TROUGH MOVING BY JUST TO OUR NORTH
WILL PROVIDE FOR VERY STRONG WINDS ALOFT...WITH 40 KT OF DOWNSLOPE
850 MB WINDS TO CONTEND WITH. EVEN WITH THE DOWNSLOPE...THE DEGREE
OF COLD AIR ADVECTION WILL BE HARD TO OVERCOME. BECAUSE OF
THIS...EXPECT A NON DIURNAL TEMP TREND THIS AFTERNOON WITH
TEMPERATURES HIGHS IN THE MID 40S AROUND 15Z IN THE TRIAD TO MID 50S
IN THE SE COASTAL PLAN BY 18Z...WITH TEMPS BEGINNING TO DROP
THEREAFTER. HAVE DROPPED FORECAST HIGHS FOR THIS MORNING A LITTLE
BASED ON THICKNESS TRENDS.

THE MAIN ISSUE FOR TODAY WILL BE THE WINDY CONDITIONS. MODEL
SOUNDINGS ARE CONSISTENT IN SHOWING MIXED LAYERS REACHING UP TO
800MB BY MIDDAY WHERE 40 KT OF WIND IS PRESENT. EVEN AT
925MB...WINDS WILL BE NEAR 35 KT. THE PRESSURE GRADIENT ACROSS
THE STATE WILL ALSO BE AROUND 15 MB BY LATE THIS MORNING AND ALL
THIS WITH A STRONG DOWNSLOPE FLOW AND COLD AIR ADVECTION WILL ACT
TO MAXIMIZE WIND GUST POTENTIAL. EXPECT SUSTAINED WINDS TO REACH
20-25 MPH WITH GUSTS AS HIGH AS 40-42 MPH. GIVEN THE NATURE OF
FREQUENT GUSTS POSSIBLY REACHING THE LOWER 40 MPH RANGE WILL GO
WITH A WIND ADVISORY FOR MUCH OF THE AREA. HIGHEST WINDS SHOULD BE
IN THE TRIAD EAST TO RALEIGH AND WILSON NORTH INTO
VIRGINIA...MAINLY ALONG AND NORTH OF HIGHWAY 64.

THESE WINDY CONDITIONS ALONG WITH QUICKLY DROPPING RH LEVELS
(WITH DEWPOINTS RAPIDLY LOWERING INTO THE LOWER TEENS BY AFTERNOON)
ARE CAUSE FOR SOME FIRE WEATHER ISSUES. FINE FUELS SHOULD DRY OUT
RATHER QUICKLY THIS AFTERNOON. THE COOLER TEMPERATURES SHOULD HELP
TO MITIGATE THE THREAT SOMEWHAT THOUGH AND AT THIS TIME HAVE
OPTED TO GO WITH AN INCREASED FIRE DANGER STATEMENT. PLEASE SEE
THE FIRE WEATHER DISCUSSION BELOW FOR DETAILS ON THE INCREASED
FIRE WEATHER DANGER.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 200 AM WEDNESDAY...

FORECAST MODEL THICKNESSES HAVE COOLED TO BETWEEN 1265-1270
METERS NEW YEARS EVE EVENING/THURSDAY MORNING. THIS WILL SUPPORT
OVERNIGHT LOWS IN THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 20S FOR WEDNESDAY
NIGHT/THURSDAY MORNING. THE ONLY THING PERHAPS PREVENTING SOME
AREAS FROM FALLING INTO THE LOWER 20S AND UPPER TEENS WILL BE A
CONTINUED NORTH WIND OF 5-10 MPH OVERNIGHT. BY MIDNIGHT TONIGHT
THOUGH TEMPERATURES WILL HAVE FALLEN INTO THE LOWER 30S AND WITH A
NORTH WIND OF 8 MPH EXPECT WIND CHILLS IN THE LOWER 20S AS WE RING
IN THE NEW YEAR. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL BOTTOM OUT IN THE LOWER TO
MIDDLE 20S COME THURSDAY MORNING.

THE COLD HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BE DIRECTLY OVER CENTRAL NC
NEW YEARS DAY AS RESULTING IN CHILLY DAYTIME HIGHS BUT CALM WINDS.
FORECAST THICKNESSES FOR THURSDAY HAVE FALLEN A LITTLE WITH THE
LATEST RUN SO WILL DROP AFTERNOON HIGHS A FEW DEGREES ON THURSDAY
GOING ON THE COLD SIDE OF GUIDANCE. HIGH TEMPERATURES TO STRUGGLE
TO REACH THE 40S ACROSS THE NORTH...WITH LOWER 40S IN MOST
LOCATION. A FEW PLACES IN THE SOUTH MAY BE ABLE TO SNEAK INTO THE
MOD 40S. SKIES WILL REMAIN MOSTLY CLEAR THURSDAY WITH JUST A FEW
PATCHY HIGH CLOUDS POSSIBLE.

THURSDAY NIGHT WILL BE CONTINUED COLD AND DRY AS THE HIGH PRESSURE
SYSTEMS SLOWLY MOVES OFFSHORE. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL AGAIN FALL INTO
THE 20S BUT SHOULD BE A FEW DEGREES WARMER THAT NEW YEARS MORNING.
WILL STAY ON THE COLD SIDE OF GUIDANCE IN THE MID TO UPPER 20S.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 100 PM TUESDAY...

ZONAL FLOW ALOFT THAT HAS COVERED THE U.S. FOR THE PAST WEEK OR SO
WILL DEVELOP INTO A SPLIT FLOW PATTERN AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS
PERIOD AS A PIECE OF ENERGY DIVES SE INTO THE DESERT SW BY SUNDAY
MORNING. THIS WILL EVENTUALLY LEAD TO A COMPLEX WEATHER PATTERN FOR
CENTRAL NC BY LATE MONDAY INTO TUESDAY.

SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY...SURFACE HIGH WILL BUILD INTO CENTRAL NC FROM
THE GREAT LAKES REGION SATURDAY AND SETTLE OVERHEAD ON SUNDAY. THIS
WEATHER SYSTEM WILL PROVIDE US WITH DRY AND SEASONABLY COOL
CONDITIONS.

SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY...AS HIGH MOVES OFFSHORE SUNDAY
NIGHT...ANOTHER FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH A S/W CROSSING THE GREAT LAKES
INTO NEW ENGLAND WILL DRIFT INTO THE REGION AND STALL NEAR OR SOUTH
OF OUR AREA MONDAY. THE SURFACE HIGH BUILDING IN BEHIND THIS FRONT
APPEARS TO BE MODIFIED POLAR IN CHARACTER. THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO
SEND A SHALLOW COLD AIR MASS INTO THE REGION MONDAY OR MONDAY NIGHT.

TUESDAY...MEDIUM RANGE GUIDANCE SUGGEST THE POTENTIAL FOR A COMPLEX
WEATHER SCENARIO TO UNFOLD. GUIDANCE INDICATE SOUTHERN STREAM
SYSTEM LIFTING EAST OUT OF THE SOUTHERN PLAINS/TX. THIS WILL INDUCE
CYCLOGENESIS IN VICINITY OF THE WESTERN GULF MONDAY NIGHT WITH
SURFACE LOW TRACKING INTO THE LOWER MS VALLEY/TN VALLEY TUESDAY.
00Z/30TH ECMWF DEPICTS A MILLER A SCENARIO...A DOMINATE LOW
TRACKING WEST OF THE MOUNTAINS. GFS...ON THE OTHER HAND...DEPICTS A
MILLER B SCENARIO WITH A SECONDARY LOW FORMING ALONG THE STALLED
FRONT TUESDAY OVER THE SE U.S. COAST...TRACKING NE ALONG THE
CAROLINA COAST TUESDAY NIGHT. DEPENDING UPON THE DEPTH/DEGREE OF
COLD AIR NEAR THE SURFACE...THE GFS SCENARIO WOULD HAVE SOME P-TYPE
IMPLICATIONS FOR THE PIEDMONT COUNTIES TUESDAY. DID NOTE THAT PARENT
SURFACE HIGH OVER NEW ENGLAND TUESDAY RELATIVELY WEAK AT AROUND
1025MB. A STRONGER HIGH WOULD HEIGHTEN AWARENESS TO POTENTIAL P-TYPE
CONCERNS.

SINCE THIS IS SO FAR OUT IN TIME AND TIMING ADJUSTMENTS ARE LIKELY
TO OCCUR...WILL KEEP POPS IN THE SLIGHT CHANCE CATEGORY FOR MONDAY
NIGHT/TUESDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /07Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 1230 AM WEDNESDAY...

SKC VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE 24-HOUR TAF PERIOD. THE
WIND WILL PRESENT AN INCREASINGLY SIGNIFICANT AVIATION HAZARD EARLY
THIS MORNING IN THE FORM OF LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR...AND LATER THIS
MORNING THROUGH THE AFTERNOON HOURS IN THE FORM OF VERY GUSTY
NORTHWESTERLY SURFACE WINDS.

A LOW PRESSURE CENTER CURRENTLY LOCATED IN OHIO WILL FURTHER
STRENGTHEN AS IT MOVES QUICKLY EAST THIS MORNING...THEN BOMB (24
MB/24 HR INTENSIFICATION) OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST LATER TODAY AND
TONIGHT. AN ATTENDANT STRONG COLD FRONT IS FORECAST TO SWEEP
EASTWARD ACROSS CENTRAL NC LATER THIS MORNING.

THE STRENGTH OF THE LLJ ACROSS THE AREA THIS MORNING (40-45 KT AT 2
KFT) WARRANTS A FORECAST OF LLWS AT CENTRAL NC TERMINALS THROUGH
12-13Z THIS MORNING. EXPECT THE LLJ TO MIX OUT WITH DIURNAL HEATING
AND END THE THREAT OF LLWS BY MID MORNING. HOWEVER...THE STRONG
PRESSURE GRADIENT AND MSLP RISES ASSOCIATED WITH THE DEPARTING SFC
LOW COMBINED WITH TURBULENT MIXING OF STRONGER WINDS ALOFT WILL
PROMOTE THE DEVELOPMENT OF SUSTAINED NWRLY SFC WINDS IN THE 20 TO
25 KNOT RANGE...WITH FREQUENT (OCCASIONAL) GUSTS BETWEEN 30 AND 40
KNOTS.

LOOKING AHEAD...THE GUSTY NWRLY WINDS WILL GRADUALLY SUBSIDE TO 10
KTS OR LESS BY MIDNIGHT OR SO THU MORNING. VFR CONDITIONS WILL
PERSIST UNTIL EARLY FRI AS SURFACE HIGH CRESTS OVERHEAD THU AND
SLIDES OFFSHORE THU NIGHT. THE RETURN FLOW AROUND THE DEPARTING SFC
HIGH AND AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING POTENT STORM SYSTEM FROM THE WEST
WILL INCREASE THE THREAT OF MVFR/IFR CEILINGS AND A CHANCE OF RAIN
FOR FRIDAY. VFR CONDITIONS ARE THEN EXPECTED BY FRIDAY EVENING
THROUGH THE WEEKEND AS HIGH PRESSURE AGAIN BUILDS OVERHEAD.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
AS OF 200 AM WEDNESDAY...

PER COORDINATION WITH THE NORTH CAROLINA FOREST SERVICE... AN
INCREASED FIRE STATEMENT HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR WEDNESDAY.

A LOW PRESSURE CENTER NEAR CHICAGO THIS EVENING IS FORECAST TO
STRENGTHEN ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY TONIGHT... THEN BOMB (24 MB/24
HR INTENSIFICATION) OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST WEDNESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY NIGHT. AN ATTENDANT COLD FRONT IS FORECAST TO SWEEP
EASTWARD ACROSS CENTRAL NC WEDNESDAY MORNING.

THE ASSOCIATED TIGHTENING PRESSURE GRADIENT... 5-10 MB/6 HR
PRESSURE RISES... AND STRONG COLD AIR ADVECTION -- WHICH WILL
PROMOTE DEEP MIXING... LARGE SCALE SUBSIDENCE... AND ASSOCIATED
INCREASED TURBULENT DOWNWARD MOMENTUM TRANSPORT -- IN THE WAKE OF
THE COLD FRONT WILL PROMOTE WINDY CONDITIONS ACROSS CENTRAL NC
WEDNESDAY. SUSTAINED NORTHWESTERLY SURFACE WINDS IN THE 20 TO 25
MPH RANGE... WITH FREQUENT GUSTS BETWEEN 30 AND 35 MPH AND
OCCASIONAL GUSTS BETWEEN 35 AND 40 MPH ARE LIKELY.

IN ADDITION TO THE STRONG NORTHWESTERLY WINDS... THE COMBINATION
OF DRY ADVECTION AND DOWNSLOPE COMPRESSIONAL DRYING BEHIND THE
COLD FRONT WILL SEND DEWPOINTS INTO THE TEENS (WITH SOME SINGLE
DIGITS POSSIBLE IN THE WESTERN PIEDMONT) BY AFTERNOON. ASSOCIATED
MINIMUM RELATIVE HUMIDITY LEVELS ARE FORECAST TO FALL INTO THE 25
TO 30 PERCENT RANGE. THE DRYNESS OF THE ATMOSPHERE WEDNESDAY WILL
DRAMATICALLY DRY OUT FINE FUEL MOISTURE - A PROCESS WHICH ALREADY
BEGAN IN EARNEST AS RHS FELL INTO THE TEENS TO 20S ON TUESDAY.
THE LOW HUMIDITY... DRYING FUEL MOISTURE... AND STRONG GUSTY NW
WINDS WILL PRODUCE RAPID FIRE SPREAD... AND BURNING IS THEREFORE
STRONGLY DISCOURAGED ON WEDNESDAY.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA.

.DAY ONE...THROUGH TONIGHT.

HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS NOT EXPECTED AT THIS TIME.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY.

STRONG GUSTY WINDS AS HIGH AS 35 TO 40 MPH ARE POSSIBLE LATE
WEDNESDAY MORNING INTO WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. WINDS OF THIS MAGNITUDE
COULD RESULT IN A FEW DOWNED TREE LIMBS AND MAKE DRIVING
DIFFICULT...ESPECIALLY FOR HIGH PROFILE VEHICLES.

THE STRONG WINDS WILL ALSO COMBINE WITH LOWERING RELATIVE HUMIDITY
VALUES TO CREATE AN INCREASED FIRE DANGER ACROSS CENTRAL NORTH
CAROLINA WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. BURNING IS NOT RECOMMENDED DUE TO
THE GUSTY WINDS AND RAPIDLY DRYING FUELS.
