Area forecast discussion, Jun 22, 3:35 PM EDT, 2 hours 23 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON NC
335 PM EDT WED JUN 22 2011
.SYNOPSIS...
HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH MID WEEK AS HIGH
PRESSURE DOMINATES THE SOUTHEAST. THE CHANCES OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL INCREASE LATE THIS WEEK AS A COLD FRONT MOVES
ACROSS THE TENNESSEE VALLEY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 3 PM WEDNESDAY...SATELLITE SHOWING THE SMOKE PLUME FROM
THE PENDER COUNTY FIRE AND HIGHER LEVEL SMOKE FROM THE GEORGIA FIRE
WAS OVER THE REGION EARLIER AND FORECAST TRAJECTORIES INDICATE WE
MAY CONTINUE TO SEE THIS HIGHER LEVEL SMOKE ALSO. SMOKE WILL BE AN
ISSUE IN PENDER AND EXTREME NORTHERN NEW HANOVER COUNTIES. AN AIR
QUALITY ALERT WILL BE EXTENDED FOR PENDER AND EXTREME NORTHEAST NEW
HANOVER COUNTY THROUGH TOMORROW AT 3 PM. ADDITIONAL SMOKE ISSUES MAY
BECOME A PROBLEM WITH THE FIRE IN NORTHERN BLADEN COUNTY.
THE HEAT ADVISORY WILL CONTINUE FOR OUR SOUTHERN COUNTIES UNTIL 7 PM.
IF CONVECTION DOES FIRE IT IS EXPECTED TO BE ISOLATED WITH A FEW
HEAVY DOWN POURS. TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED AGAIN TO FALL INTO THE
MIDDLE TO UPPER 70S.
&&
.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 3 PM WEDNESDAY...AN H5 TROUGH AND AN APPROACHING WEAK COLD
FRONT WILL BRING SLIGHTLY ENHANCED CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. WHILE COVERAGE IS EXPECTED TO BE SCATTERED AT
BEST...THE STORMS COULD BRING SOME MUCH NEEDED RAIN...THOUGH THERE
WILL BE LOCATIONS THAT ARE LEFT DRY. FOR THOSE WHO DO GET
RAIN...AMOUNTS COULD BE SIGNIFICANT AS DEEP MOISTURE WILL BE
AVAILABLE. HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE LOW TO MID 90S ARE EXPECTED
THURSDAY AND IN THE UPPER 80S TO LOWER 90S FRIDAY.
&&
.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 3 PM WEDNESDAY...COASTAL CAROLINAS REMAIN ON WESTERN PERIPHERY
OF BERMUDA HIGH WITH SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW THROUGH MOST OF THE PERIOD.
OVERALL GRADIENT WEAKENS WITH LIGHTER WINDS SAT THROUGH EARLY NEXT
WEEK. SHOULD SEE FAIRLY DECENT SEA BREEZE EACH AFTERNOON AND EXPECT
THIS TO BE MAIN FOCAL POINT FOR SCT AFTN CONVECTION. BASE OF MID TO
UPPER TROUGH EXTENDING DOWN THROUGH OHIO VALLEY INTO THE CAROLINAS
WILL DEFINE THE BOUNDARY BETWEEN MUCH DRIER AIR TO THE NORTH AND
DEEPER MOISTURE TO THE SOUTH. THIS DRIER AIR WILL REMAIN ALOFT AND
MAY HELP TO PUT A CAP ON CONVECTION SAT AFTN. THE DRIER AIR MAY ONLY
MIX DOWN SLIGHTLY ON SAT THROUGH SUN BUT OVERALL A HOT HUMID SUMMER
TIME AIR MASS WILL REMAIN IN PLACE. TEMPS WILL RUN WITHIN A FEW
DEGREES OF 90 MOST PLACES WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS DOWN TO 70 TO 75.
&&
.AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 18Z...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN VFR THROUGHOUT THE VALID TAF PERIOD.
POSSIBLE ISOLATED CONVECTION COULD CAUSE BRIEF RESTRICTIONS LATER
THIS AFTERNOON.
THIS AFTERNOON...SMOKE FROM PERSISTENT WILDFIRE IN PENDER COUNTY
COULD DRIFT TO KILM...HOWEVER SIGNIFICANT RESTRICTIONS ARE NOT
LIKELY. MID AND HIGH CLOUDS WILL LIKELY REMAIN AROUND THE AREA
THROUGHOUT THE DAY. CONVECTION IS POSSIBLE AS UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCE COMES THROUGH AND SEA BREEZE DEVELOPS. LOCATIONS AND
TIMING ARE UNCERTAIN...AS ANY DEVELOPMENT WOULD BE ISOLATED...SO
WILL LEAVE OUT OF TAFS FOR NOW. A BIT STRONGER WINDS AS SURFACE LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM APPROACHING FROM THE WEST WILL CREATE A TIGHTER PG.
EXPECT WINDS TO BE ABOUT 10-15 KNOTS...GENERALLY SW FLOW WILL BE
BACKED TO THE SOUTH AS SEA BREEZE PUSHES INLAND.
OVERNIGHT...NOT EXPECTING FOG/STRATUS AS MODEL SOUNDINGS INDICATE A
NOCTURNAL LLJ THAT WILL KEEP THE ATMOSPHERE MIXED ALONG WITH CLOUD
COVER WHICH WILL LIMIT RADIATIONAL COOLING.
EXTENDED OUTLOOK...LOW CONFIDENCE ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS EACH
AFTERNOON. BETTER CHANCES THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY AS COLD FRONT
APPROACHES.
&&
.MARINE...
NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 3 PM WEDNESDAY...PIEDMONT TROUGH WILL PRODUCE A SOUTHWEST
FLOW OVER THE WATERS WITH THE NEAR SHORE WATERS WINDS BECOMING
SOUTH THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS THE SEA BREEZES DENSITY
CURRENT BECOME ESTABLISHED OVER THE WATERS. THE PRESSURE GRADIENT
OVER THE WATER WILL TIGHTEN OVERNIGHT AND WINDS WILL INCREASE FROM
10 TO 15 KNOTS TO 15 TO 20 KNOTS. THIS INCREASE IN WINDS WILL
INCREASE THE SEAS FROM 2 TO 3 FEET THIS AFTERNOON TO 2 TO 4 FEET
OVERNIGHT.
SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 3 PM WEDNESDAY...S TO SW WINDS WILL DOMINATE THROUGH THE
PERIOD. THE APPROACHING FRONT COULD RESULT IN WIND SPEEDS OF 15 TO
PERHAPS 20 KT THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH SEA HEIGHTS EXPECTED TO RUN 3
TO 4 FT WITH 5 FOOTERS POSSIBLE AT TIMES. NO FLAGS BUT SEAS COULD
BE A LITTLE ROUGH FOR MID TO LATE JUNE.
