AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
312 PM EDT WED OCT 27 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
UNSEASONABLY WARM...HUMID...AND BREEZY CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE
ACROSS THE REGION TONIGHT. A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL MOVE EAST
THROUGH THE AREA THURSDAY. MUCH COLDER AIR WILL OVERSPREAD THE
REGION THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY.

&&

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

SURFACE FRONT REMAINS WELL TO THE W-NW OF THE FORECAST AREA...HAVING
MOVED LITTLE SINCE EARLY THIS MORNING. HEATING AS AIDED TO
DESTABILIZE NEAR SURFACE AIR MASS WITH SURFACE LIFTED INDICES IN THE
MODERATE RANGE (MINUS 3 TO MINUS 6) AND MLCAPE OF 1000-1500 J/KG.
PER SPC MESO ANALYSIS...KINEMATICS REMAIN IMPRESSIVE WITH BULK SHEAR
35-45 KTS AND 0-1KM SR HELICITY AROUND 200 M2/S2. THESE PARAMETERS
EXPECTED TO REMAIN CONSTANT THROUGH THE EVENING. EXPECT CONVECTIVE
COVERAGE TO INCREASE THIS EVENING INTO THE OVERNIGHT AS AN UPPER
LEVEL IMPULSE APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. THIS SYSTEM WILL HELP TO
SPIN UP A SURFACE WAVE ON THE FRONT IN NORTH GA LATE TONIGHT THEN
PROPAGATE TO THE NE ACROSS CENTRAL NC DURING THE LATE NIGHT HOURS
INTO THU MORNING. THE APPROACH OF THIS WEATHER SYSTEM WILL INCREASE
SHOWER AND T-STORM COVERAGE LATE TONIGHT INTO THE OVERNIGHT. CURRENT
INDICATIONS ARE THAT THE LEADING EDGE OF THE CONVECTION WILL REMAIN
OVER THE WESTERN PIEDMONT THROUGH MOST OF THE EVENING THEN PROGRESS
SLOWLY BUT STEADILY EAST OVERNIGHT INTO THU MORNING. EXPECT LEADING
EDGE OF CONVECTION TO REACH THE TRIANGLE AREA AROUND OR AFTER
MIDNIGHT...AND INTO THE SANDHILLS AND COASTAL PLAIN DURING THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS. WHILE THE BEST PARAMETERS TO SUPPORT SEVERE WEATHER
WILL BE LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING...POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE
WEATHER TO OCCUR WELL INTO THE OVERNIGHT EXISTS DUE TO THE FAVORABLE
WIND PROFILE. THE DRAWBACK FOR SEVERE WEATHER IS THAT THE NEAR
SURFACE AIR MASS WILL GRADUALLY STABILIZE OVERNIGHT. THUS AS WE GET
PAST 10 PM-12 MIDNIGHT...EXPECT SEVERE STORMS TO BE LESS NUMEROUS
WITH SEVERE STORMS THOSE THAT HAVE CORES OF SUFFICIENT DEPTH TO
TRANSLATE STRONG WINDS TO THE SURFACE.

IT WILL REMAIN MILD OVERNIGHT SINCE SURFACE FRONT WILL NOT REACH THE
NW PIEDMONT UNTIL CLOSE TO DAYBREAK. MIN TEMPS MID 60S TO LOWER 70S
SE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 305 PM WEDNESDAY...

BAND OF CONVECTION ASSOCIATED WITH THE SURFACE FRONT WILL LIE
ACROSS THE REGION...ENDING BY MID MORNING IN THE WEST. EXPECT
SURFACE FRONT TO EXIT THE COASTAL PLAIN COUNTIES AROUND MID
AFTERNOON. DUE TO SLOWER EXIT OF THE FRONT...WILL MAINTAIN LIKELY
POPS THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS ALONG AND EAST OF I-95 THEN DIMINISH
POPS IN THE AFTERNOON. 850MB TROUGH PROJECTED TO CROSS THE REGION
THU AFTERNOON. THE PASSAGE OF THIS FEATURE WILL INITIATE LOW LEVEL
COLD AIR ADVECTION AND ARRIVAL OF DRIER AIR. EXPECT SKIES TO GRADUAL
CLEAR FROM THE NW IN THE AFTERNOON....WITH THE CLEARING LINE
ANTICIPATED TO BE NEAR I-95 AROUND SUNSET.

CONSIDERABLE CLOUDINESS AND PERIODS OF SHOWERS WILL HOLD TEMPS DOWN
A BIT. HAVE LOWERED MAX TEMPS A FEW DEGREES FROM EARLIER
FORECAST...MAINLY IN THE EAST AND SOUTH.

COLD AIR ADVECTION THU NIGHT WILL KEEP THE BOUNDARY LAYER WELL
MIXED. STRENGTH OF COLD AIR ADVECTION SUGGEST MOS GUIDANCE TEMPS OF
MID40S NORTH TO AROUND 50 LOOK ON TARGET.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 300 PM WEDNESDAY...

FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...NORTHWEST FLOW OCCURS ALOFT LATE IN
THE WORK WEEK AND FOR THE START OF THE WEEKEND. DRY AIR WILL BE IN
PLACE OVERALL...WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES OF A HALF-INCH OR
LESS. SUBSIDENCE WILL BE IN PLACE AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN. 925MB
WINDS ARE NEAR 30KT EARLY FRIDAY...AND WITH MIXING EXPECT SLIGHTLY
BREEZY CONDITIONS MID-MORNING FRIDAY INTO THE AFTERNOON BEFORE THE
GRADIENT SUBSIDES. WINDS SHOULD TURN FAIRLY LIGHT OVERNIGHT FRIDAY
AND CURRENTLY EXPECT AT LEAST PATCHY FROST IN MANY...NON-URBAN AREAS
MAINLY NORTHWEST OF A LINE FROM ABOUT WADESBORO TO ROCKY MOUNT EARLY
SATURDAY MORNING. IF OVERNIGHT LOWS FRIDAY NIGHT REMAIN AS
FORECAST...THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE THERE WILL BE A FROST ADVISORY
LATE FRIDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY SATURDAY MORNING. WITH A FAST FLOW TO
OUR NORTH AND WITH GUIDANCE SUGGESTING A WEAK MID-LEVEL SHORTWAVE
PASSING JUST TO OUR NORTH ON SATURDAY...BOTH THE NAM AND GFS
INCREASE UPPER-LEVEL MOISTURE ESPECIALLY NEAR THE VIRGINIA BORDER
SATURDAY AFTERNOON. PARTICULARLY IN THE GRIDDED FORECAST...SHOW SKY
COVER BECOMING PARTLY CLOUDY FOR A TIME IN AREAS NORTH OF U.S. 64
SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND IN THE NORTHEAST SATURDAY EVENING AS THE WAVE
MOVES EAST. HIGH TEMPERATURES THAT SHOULD BE IN THE LOWER TO MID 60S
FRIDAY WARM TO THE MID TO UPPER 60S ON SATURDAY.

SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY...RIDGING ALOFT AND THE NORTHWEST FLOW
ARE DAMPENED BY A MODERATELY-STRONG MID-LEVEL SHORTWAVE MOVING
ACROSS THE CENTER OF CONUS. GUIDANCE STRENGTH AND TRACK DIFFER BUT
THE STRONG CONSENSUS IS FOR RIDGING ALOFT TO BE DAMPENED IN FAVOR OF
A FAST WESTERLY FLOW. SURFACE RIDGING OVER THE GULF SHOULD KEEP
CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION LOW...DESPITE THE ECMWF BEING STRONGER
THAN THE GFS WITH THE STRENGTH OF THE MID-LEVEL WAVE AND CLOSER TO
CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA IN ITS PASSAGE LATE IN THE WEEKEND. AHEAD OF
STRONGER RIDGING BUILDING SOUTHEAST FROM THE SOUTHERN CANADA AND THE
GREAT LAKES...A SECONDARY COLD FRONT SHOULD MOVE THROUGH CENTRAL
NORTH CAROLINA MONDAY...BUT THIS FRONT IS EXPECTED TO MOVE THROUGH
DRY COURTESY OF RIDGING CONTINUING OVER THE GULF. TEMPERATURES
SHOULD BE COOL AGAIN SATURDAY NIGHT WITH LOWS IN THE MID 30S TO NEAR
40...FOLLOWED BY HIGHS OF 70 TO 75 SUNDAY...AND FROM THE UPPER 60S
NEAR THE VIRGINIA BORDER MONDAY CLOSER TO THE FRONT...TO THE MID 70S
TOWARD THE SOUTH CAROLINA BORDER.

TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...WHILE THE TIMING AND STRENGTH DIFFER...
LONG-TERM MODEL CONSENSUS IS FOR A DIGGING UPPER TROUGH OVER THE
CENTER OF THE CONUS TOWARD THE GULF IN THIS TIME FRAME. THERE LIKELY
WILL BE MODIFICATIONS IN TIMING AND STRENGTH OVER TIME OUT THAT FAR
IN THE FORECAST...BUT THERE IS A STRONG CONSENSUS FOR INCREASING
SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT...AND INCREASING MOISTURE FROM THE ATLANTIC
AND/OR THE GULF WITH UPSLOPE LOW-LEVEL FLOW AND LIKELY INCREASING
ISENTROPIC LIFT BEHIND THE SURFACE FRONT. CHANCES FOR SHOWERS WILL
INCREASE TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY...AND DEPENDING ON THE EVOLUTION OF
THE SYSTEM IT IS POSSIBLE FOR A STRONG CONTRAST IN TEMPERATURES BY
WEDNESDAY NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST...WITH THE BEST CHANCE FOR THUNDER
ON WEDNESDAY ESPECIALLY IF THE SURFACE LOW COMING OUT OF THE GULF
COAST STATES IS AS VIGOROUS AS THE 00Z ECMWF FORECASTS. HIGHS COULD
BE THE COOLEST OF THE SEASON SO FAR WITH SOME GUIDANCE SUGGESTING
DAYTIME HIGHS NOT GETTING OUT OF THE 50S IN THE TRIAD...POSSIBLY AS
FAR EAST AS NEAR THE TRIANGLE.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 100 PM WEDNESDAY...

BREEZY SLY WINDS WITH INFREQUENT GUSTS TO 30KTS WILL CONTINUE ACROSS
CENTRAL NC THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON. A STRONG COLD
FRONT EXTENDING FROM WESTERN VA INTO NORTHERN GA WILL EDGE EAST
THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. LATEST MODEL GUIDANCE SUGGEST THAT THE
FRONT WILL NOT REACH THE TRIAD REGION UNTIL DAYBREAK...AND LIKELY
NOT CROSS RDU AND THE FAY VICINITIES UNTIL MID DAY OR EARLY
AFTERNOON THURSDAY. AIR MASS AHEAD OF THIS SYSTEM IS VERY MOIST
RESULTING IN CEILINGS IN THE MVFR/LOW END VFR RANGE. EXPECT LITTLE
CHANGE IN CEILINGS THROUGH EARLY EVENING. LATER TONIGHT...AFTER 9
PM...EXPECT CEILINGS TO LOWER TO AROUND 1000FT AS MOISTURE POOLS
AHEAD OF THE FRONT. WHILE ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND T-STORMS
CAN BE EXPECTED DURING THE HEAT OF THE DAY THROUGH EARLY
EVENING...THE BULK OF THE CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY WILL HOLD OFF UNTIL
AFTER SUNSET (IN THE WEST)...AND PROBABLY NOT UNTIL MIDNIGHT OR
LATER IN THE EAST.  IT WILL REMAIN BREEZY OVERNIGHT WITH SURFACE
WINDS 10-15KTS. WINDS JUST ABOVE THE SURFACE AT 2000FT WILL BE
30-35KTS...NOT QUITE LLWS CRITERIA.

EXPECT A BAND OF CONVECTION TO BE OCCURRING OVER THE REGION THURSDAY
MORNING WITH ITS ASSOCIATED IFR/MVFR CONDITIONS....ENDING BY MID
MORNING IN THE WEST...AND AROUND MID DAY OR EARLY AFTERNOON AT RDU
AND FAY AS THE SURFACE FRONT MOVES EAST. W-NW FLOW BEHIND THE FRONT
WILL USHER DRIER COOLER AIR INTO THE REGION. THIS CHANGE IN AIR MASS
WILL AID TO DISSIPATE CLOUDINESS WITH CLEARING PROGRESSING WEST-TO
EAST ACROSS CENTRAL NC THU AFTERNOON INTO THU EVENING. THE ONSET OF
COLD AIR ADVECTION WILL ALLOW WINDS TO REMAIN STEADY THU NIGHT WITH
GUSTS AROUND 20 MPH PROBABLE.  VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED FRI THROUGH
THE WEEKEND.
