AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
317 PM EDT TUE MAY 5 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
A WEAK STATIONARY FRONT OVER CENTRAL NC WILL PUSH NORTH AS A WARM
FRONT LATER TONIGHT. AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AND SURFACE COLD FRONT
ARE EXPECTED TO PUSH EAST ACROSS CENTRAL NC WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO
THURSDAY MORNING.
&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 305 PM TUESDAY...

BEST CHANCE OF CONVECTION...SOME OF WHICH MAY BE SEVERE WILL EXIST
ACROSS THE SOUTHERN COUNTIES OF CENTRAL NC THROUGH 00Z. BREAKS IN
OVERCAST HAVE DEVELOPED...WARMING TEMPS WELL INTO THE 70S. THIS HAS
RESULTED IN SURFACE BASE CAPE VALUES AROUND 2000 J/KG WITH MIXED
LAYER CAPE 500-750 J/KG. 0-1KM HELICITY NEAR THE SC BORDER HOVERING
NEAR 150 M2/S2. SFC BOUNDARY  HAS HELD STEADY PAST FEW HOURS
STRETCHING FROM RWI-SOUTH OF RDU-ASHEBORO. WATER VAPOR DOES DEPICT
TAIL OF S/W ROTATING THROUGH MOUNTAINS AT THIS TIME. THIS FEATURE
MAY INITIATE CONVECTION OVER THE SOUTHERN PIEDMONT. IF THIS
OCCURS...STORMS SHOULD RAPIDLY DEVELOP AND POSSIBLY BECOME SEVERE.
WILL NEED TO MONITOR STORMS THAT INTERSECT OR MOVE ALONG BOUNDARY AS
HELICITY WILL BE ENHANCED ALONG THIS FEATURE...INCREASING TORNADIC
THREAT.

AIR MASS STABILIZES LATE THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT AS WHERE WILL BE
IN THE SUBSIDENCE REGION OF EXITING S/W. MAY SEE A STRAY SHOWER
OVERNIGHT INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY BUT MOST LOCALES WILL BE DRY. IF
MID/UPPER LEVEL CLOUDS THIN/DEPART...MAY SEE WIDESPREAD FOG/LOW
STRATUS WITH POCKETS OF DENSE FOG POSSIBLE. .
&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 254 PM TUESDAY...

MOIST AIR MASS WILL REMAIN IN PLACE WITH BEST INSTABILITY PROGGED TO
OCCUR EAST OF HIGHWAY 1. MODELS DIFFER ON TIMING OF NEXT MCV WITH
GFS/CANADIAN AS MUCH AS 6-9 HOURS FASTER THAN NAM-WRF. ECMWF A BIT
OF A COMPROMISE. CONSIDERING GFS USUALLY TOO FAST...FAVOR SLOWER
TIMING OFFERED BY NAM-WRF WITH SOME ADJUSTMENTS. EXPECT SCATTERED
CONVECTION TO FIRE DURING MAX HEATING WITH LITTLE IN THE MANNER OF
ORGANIZATION. EXPECT STORMS TO ORGANIZE INTO BROKEN SEGMENTS BY OR
AFTER 00Z AS MCV AND ASSOCIATED BULK SHEAR OF 35-40KTS BEGINS TO
AFFECT AREA. MAY SEE A FEW SEVERE STORMS AFTER SUNSET WITH MAIN
THREAT DAMAGING DOWNBURST  AND LARGE HAIL. IF WASHED OUT BOUNDARY
MAINTAINS PRESENCE...SLIGHT TORNADIC POTENTIAL WILL EXIST. FAVOR
WARMER MOS GUIDANCE FOR MAX TEMPS WED AS SLY FLOW INCREASES AFTER
15Z.  IF SUBSTANTIAL BREAKS DEVELOP...MAX TEMPS MAY END UP BEING 3
DEGREES WARMER.

MODELS GENERALLY AGREE IN THAT SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD BE
ONGOING WEDNESDAY EVENING OVER A GOOD PORTION OF OUR REGION. THIS
WILL BE IN RESPONSE TO THE MID/UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WHICH IS FORECAST
TO MOVE EAST ACROSS OUR REGION DURING THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT
PERIODS. CONVECTION SHOULD SHIFT EASTWARD FROM THE PIEDMONT INTO
THE COASTAL PLAIN DURING THE LATE EVENING INTO THE OVERNIGHT
PERIOD... WITH THE PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH. THE ACTUAL COLD FRONT IS
EXPECTED TO SLOWLY REACH THE COASTAL PLAIN REGION BY AROUND 12Z
THURSDAY. MODELS GENERALLY AGREE ON A PROJECTED LULL IN THE
CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY ON THURSDAY. THIS WILL BE DUE TO SUBSIDENCE ON
THE BACK SIDE OF THE DEPARTING UPPER TROUGH SHOULD BE OVER OUR
REGION. QPF STORM TOTALS IN THE 0.50 TO 1.00 INCH RANGE ON
AVERAGE... WITH LOCALLY HIGHER TOTALS. LOWS WEDNESDAY NIGHT OF
60-65 EXPECTED... WITH THE WARMER MAV GUIDANCE PREFERRED SE.
HIGHS THURSDAY SHOULD RETURN TO THE 78 TO 85 RANGE NW TO SOUTH
WITH PARTLY SUNNY SKIES.

THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING HOURS... AS A 35 TO 45KT SOUTH TO
SOUTHWESTERLY LOW LEVEL JET S-SW IS FORECAST TO BECOME ALIGNED OVER
CENTRAL AND EASTERN NC LATE WEDNESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY EVENING. THIS
SHOULD COMBINE WITH INCREASING INSTABILITY AND MODEST SHEAR TO
SUPPORT THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM THREAT. THE ONE FACTOR THAT MAY
REDUCE THE SEVERE THREAT WILL BE THE TIMING OF THE COLD FRONT ACROSS
CENTRAL NC (MOSTLY DURING THE DIURNAL COOLING PERIOD OVERNIGHT DOWN
EAST). THE THREAT OF SEVERE SHOULD END BEFORE 12Z THURSDAY. &&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 254 PM TUESDAY...

THURSDAY NIGHT SHOULD BE QUIET AS CONVECTIVE TRIGGERS APPEAR TO BE
ABSENT. A LIGHT SW FLOW SHOULD KEEP TEMPERATURES UP IN THE LOWER
TO MID 60S WITH PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES (A GOOD 10 DEGREES ABOVE
NORMAL).

FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT... ALTHOUGH THE MEAN FLOW BECOMES
MORE ZONAL OR WESTERLY... MODELS SUGGEST THAT THERE SHOULD BE SOME
CONVECTIVE TRIGGERS TRAVERSING OUR AREA. A WEAK COLD FRONT IS
EXPECTED TO PUSH INTO THE NORTHERN SECTIONS OF NC FRIDAY... THEN
SLOWLY RETREAT AS A WARM FRONT SATURDAY. A STRONGER COLD FRONT IS
EXPECTED TO PUSH INTO NC FROM THE NW LATE SATURDAY. THERE SHOULD
BE ENOUGH MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY TO INCREASE THE POP INTO THE
CHANCE CATEGORY FOR FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT AND EARLY
SUNDAY. THIS CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY SHOULD BE LARGELY DIURNALLY
DRIVEN EXCEPT FOR SATURDAY NIGHT WHEN THE COLD FRONT SHOULD
SUPPORT CONVERGENCE AND LIFT INTO THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD. LOWS WILL
CONTINUE TO AVERAGE WELL ABOVE NORMAL (IN THE 60S) FRIDAY THROUGH
SUNDAY. HIGHS WILL ALSO AVERAGE ABOVE NORMAL... MOSTLY IN THE
LOWER TO MID 80S THROUGH SUNDAY.

SUNDAY INTO MONDAY... THE COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO SHIFT SOUTH OF
NC SUNDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH MONDAY... AS A SURFACE HIGH IS
FORECAST TO SHIFT EAST ACROSS THE MID ATLANTIC AND NEW ENGLAND
STATES. POP SHOULD BE CONFINED TO AREAS TO OUR SOUTH NEAR THE
FRONT. THE LOW LEVEL FLOW SHOULD BECOME NE-E RATHER QUICKLY
LEADING TO POTENTIAL CLOUDINESS EARLY NEXT WEEK. IT WILL BE COOLER
BEHIND THE FRONT WITH LOWS IN THE 50S AND HIGHS IN THE 70S MONDAY
INTO TUESDAY (VERY CLOSE TO THE 30 YEAR NORMALS).

&&

.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 142 PM TUESDAY...

IFR/LIFR CEILINGS EARLY THIS AFTERNOON OVER THE NORTHERN PIEDMONT
WILL GRADUALLY LIFT INTO MVFR CONDITIONS BY 20-22Z AS LOW LEVEL
HEATING GRADUALLY LIFTS CEILINGS. MVFR CEILINGS EXPECTED ELSEWHERE
AS MOIST AIRMASS AND HEATING WILL MAINTAIN CEILINGS BETWEEN
1500-2500 FT. APPROACH OF AN DISTURBANCE ALOFT WILL SUSTAIN
SCATTERED CONVECTION THROUGH 02Z ACROSS THE AREA. EXPECT IFR
CONDITIONS NEAR THE HEAVIER SHOWERS AND STORMS.

EXPECT A LULL IN THE CONVECTION TONIGHT THROUGH EARLY WEDNESDAY
MORNING. NEARLY SATURATED AIR MASS WILL RESULT IN LIFR CEILINGS AND
POSSIBLY LIFR VISIBILITIES AS SKIES ALOFT BRIEFLY CLEAR...CAUSING
NEAR SURFACE LAYER TO COOL TO THE DEWPOINT. FOG AND LOW STRATUS THAT
FORM WILL LIFT BETWEEN 13-15Z WED.

WEDNESDAY...A MOIST AND MARGINALLY UNSTABLE AIR MASS WILL RESULT IN
BROKEN CEILINGS BETWEEN 2000-3500 FT BY AFTERNOON. A S-SW WIND
SUSTAINED 8-12 KTS WITH GUSTS 19-23KTS EXPECTED...ESPECIALLY IN
VICINITY OF KFAY AND KRWI WHERE HEATING MAY BE A BIT STRONGER. AIR
MASS WILL AGAIN SUPPORT SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS ...MAINLY AFTER 16Z. EXPECT CONVECTION TO PERSIST WELL
INTO THE NIGHT AS AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE APPROACHES AND CROSSES
THE REGION AFTER 00Z.

STABLE CONDITIONS EXPECTED THU INTO THU NIGHT WHILE A RETURN TO
UNSTABLE CONDITIONS AND PERIODS OF ADVERSE AVIATION CONDITIONS
ANTICIPATED FOR FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY.
