AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
230 PM EDT WED JUN 22 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
RIDGING ALOFT WILL RESULT IN ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES THROUGH
THURSDAY. PRECIPITATION CHANCES ARE EXPECTED TO INCREASE FRIDAY
THROUGH THE WEEKEND AS THE RIDGE SHIFTS OFFSHORE AND A SLOW MOVING
TROUGH APPROACHES FROM THE WEST.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 230 PM WEDNESDAY...

SFC ANALYSIS THIS AFTERNOON SHOWED 997 MB LOW PRESSURE OVER MN/WI...
WITH A COLD FRONT EXTENDING SOUTH/SW THROUGH THE CENTRAL MS RIVER
VALLEY INTO THE LOWER MIDWEST. A WARM FRONT EXTENDED EAST THROUGH
THE GREAT LAKES INTO UPSTATE NY. A WEAK LEE TROUGH WAS NOTED OVER
THE MID-ATLANTIC AND CAROLINAS. ALOFT...LATEST WV IMAGERY AND RUC
DATA SHOWED AN H5 RIDGE CENTERED OVER FL...WITH A RIDGE AXIS
EXTENDING NORTH ALONG THE EAST COAST AND INCREASINGLY SOUTHWEST FLOW
ALOFT OVER THE CAROLINAS/VA. AN MCV WAS NOTED IN VICINITY OF THE
I-77 CORRIDOR AS OF 18Z...SPAWNED BY CONVECTION OVER LA/MS YESTERDAY
EVENING.

THROUGH TONIGHT:
ALTHOUGH A WEAK LEE TROUGH WAS NOTED IN SURFACE ANALYSIS...LOW LEVEL
FLOW (925-850 MB) IS UNIFORM FROM THE SOUTHWEST ACROSS CENTRAL NC
TODAY...AND ANY LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE ASSOC/W THE LEE TROUGH WILL
REMAIN VERY WEAK AND SHALLOW. ADDITIONAL LOW LEVEL FORCING ASSOC/W
THE SEABREEZE WILL BE POSSIBLE IN THE SE COASTAL PLAIN THIS
AFTERNOON GIVEN STRONG HEATING INLAND. ALOFT...THE RUC CONTINUES TO
SHOW DPVA ASSOC/W THE AFOREMENTIONED MCV FEATURE MOVING EAST/ENE
THROUGH CENTRAL NC BETWEEN 18Z THIS AFTERNOON AND 00Z THIS EVENING
VIA INCREASINGLY WESTERLY/WSW FLOW ALOFT AS THE MID-LEVEL RIDGE
MOVES OFFSHORE. W/REGARD TO THERMODYNAMICS...GIVEN STRONG INSOLATION
WITH MAX TEMPS IN THE UPPER 90S AND DEWPOINTS IN THE MID/UPPER 60S
TO LOWER 70S...EXPECT MLCAPE VALUES RANGING FROM 1500-3000 J/KG
ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA...HIGHEST IN THE SOUTH/SW WHERE CLOUD COVER
WAS MINIMAL THIS MORNING. WITH THE ABOVE IN MIND...ONE WOULD EXPECT
CONVECTION TO DEVELOP IN ASSOC/W THE MCV CROSSING THE AREA FROM
WEST-EAST DURING PEAK HEATING THIS AFTERNOON...ALTHOUGH THIS IS
CONTINGENT ON THE ACCURACY OF THE SPC MESOANALYSIS/RUC PORTRAYAL OF
SAID FEATURE. CURIOUSLY...THE 12Z HIGH-RES WRF/NMM MODELS DEVELOP
LITTLE IN THE WAY OF CONVECTION ACROSS CENTRAL NC THIS AFTERNOON
THROUGH TONIGHT...WITH MOST CONVECTION OCCURRING JUST OUTSIDE OF OR
ON THE PERIPHERY OF CENTRAL NC. ALTHOUGH THE HIGH-RES WRF/NMM MODELS
MAY BE SUPPRESSING CONVECTION OVER CENTRAL NC FOR A REASON...THIS
STILL SEEMS DIFFICULT TO BELIEVE GIVEN THE DEGREE OF DESTABILIZATION
ACROSS THE AREA...AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE POISED TO CROSS THE
AREA...AND OTHERWISE SIMILAR CONDITIONS TO YESTERDAY. GIVEN THE
DIFFICULT PATTERN WE'VE BEEN IN THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS AND A FAIR
AMOUNT OF UNCERTAINTY ASSOC/W CONVECTIVE INITIATION/COVERAGE...WILL
INDICATE CHANCE POPS (30%) ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA THROUGH TONIGHT...
ALTHOUGH COVERAGE COULD EASILY EXCEED 30% IN PORTIONS OF THE AREA IN
ASSOC/W OUTFLOW INTERACTIONS...SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY EVENING. EXPECT
LOWS IN THE 70-75F RANGE THU MORNING OWING TO A VERY WARM AIRMASS
AND EXPECTED CLOUD COVER LATE TONIGHT AS WEAK HEIGHT FALLS COMMENCE
FROM THE WEST.

SEVERE THREAT:
PRIMARY THREATS WITH ANY DEEP CONVECTION TODAY WILL BE DAMAGING
WINDS AND QUARTER TO GOLFBALL SIZE HAIL...SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY.
ALTHOUGH EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR VALUES WILL PROBABLY BE IN THE 20-25
KT RANGE THIS AFTERNOON DUE TO DEEP BOUNDARY LAYER MIXING...MODEST
MID-LEVEL FLOW (AS HIGH AS 35-40 KT) IS PROGGED ACROSS THE AREA
DURING PEAK HEATING. THIS SUGGESTS THAT MULTICELL ORGANIZATION WOULD
BE POSSIBLE WITH ANY CONVECTION THAT DEVELOPS THIS AFTERNOON. EVEN
IF BULK SHEAR VALUES ARE INSUFFICIENT...STRONG COLD POOLS WOULD BE
EXPECTED TODAY IN ASSOC/W VERY STEEP LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES/STRONG
INSOLATION...AND THAT IN OF ITSELF COULD LEAD TO MULTICELL
ORGANIZATION. LIKE PREVIOUS DAYS...THE THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER
COULD BE FAIRLY WIDESPREAD DUE TO EXTENSIVE COLD POOL INTERACTIONS.
THE THREAT APPEARS TO BE GREATEST BETWEEN 4 PM THIS AFTERNOON AND
MIDNIGHT TONIGHT.

THURSDAY:
THE VERTICALLY STACKED LOW CURRENTLY CENTERED IN FAR SOUTHEAST
MINNESOTA WILL MOVE NORTHEAST AND BECOME CENTERED OVER THE NORTHERN
GREAT LAKES ON THU...WITH H5 TROUGHING/CYCLONIC FLOW ALOFT EXTENDING
SOUTH THROUGH THE OH/TN VALLEYS INTO PORTIONS OF THE DEEP SOUTH. THE
MID/UPPER LEVEL RIDGE CURRENTLY CENTERED ALONG THE EAST COAST WILL
SHIFT FURTHER OFFSHORE...AND CENTRAL NC IS EXPECTED TO SEE 30-40
METER 12-HR H5 HEIGHT FALLS DURING THE DAY WITH STRENGTHENING
SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT. ALTHOUGH BETTER SYNOPTIC FORCING WILL BE
PRESENT...INCREASED CLOUD COVER MAY INHIBIT INSOLATION AND
DESTABILIZATION...PERHAPS LIMITING MLCAPE VALUES TO 1500 J/KG OR
LESS...ALTHOUGH THIS WILL BE HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON THE DEGREE OF CLOUD
COVER. DESPITE LESS INSTABILITY THAN IN PREVIOUS DAYS...GIVEN THE
STRONGER BACKGROUND FORCING...EXPECT SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE THROUGHOUT THE DAY ACROSS ALL OF
CENTRAL NC...ALTHOUGH THE TIMING/LOCATION/COVERAGE REMAINS QUITE
UNCERTAIN AND WILL LIKELY BE DEPENDENT ON A VARIETY OF FACTORS
(BROAD SYNOPTIC FORCING...MINOR SHORTWAVES/MCV'S...ONGOING
CONVECTION AND OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES ETC.) WITH ALL OF THE ABOVE IN
MIND...WILL FCST PRECIP CHANCES OF 50% FOR THE ENTIRE AREA IN
DEFERENCE TO THE RELATIVELY GOOD SYNOPTIC FORCING. HIGH TEMPS WILL
BE PRIMARILY DEPENDENT ON THE DEGREE OF CLOUD COVER AND THE
TIMING/COVERAGE OF CONVECTION. IN THE ABSENCE OF CONVECTION...HIGHS
IN THE LOWER 90S LOOK OBTAINABLE GIVEN THE PROGGED THICKNESSES...
ALTHOUGH IF CLOUD COVER IS SUFFICIENTLY THICK SOME LOCATIONS MAY NOT
GET OUT OF THE UPPER 80S. W/REGARD TO SEVERE WX...MID-LEVEL FLOW IS
PROGGED TO STRENGTHEN TO 40-50 KT AS THE H5 RIDGE SHIFTS FURTHER
OFFSHORE AND THE HEIGHT GRADIENT TIGHTENS IN ASSOC/W THE VERTICALLY
STACKED LOW ADVANCING INTO THE GREAT LAKES. AS A RESULT...EFFECTIVE
BULK SHEAR VALUES WOULD BE SUFFICIENT FOR MULTICELLULAR
ORGANIZATION...AND PERHAPS SUPERCELLULAR. -VINCENT

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 145 PM WEDNESDAY....

MODELS CONTINUE TO BE IN GENERAL AGREEMENT IN THE APPROACH OF A
GRADUALLY WEAKENING UPPER TROUGH. H5 HEIGHTS SHOULD GRADUALLY LOWER
TO AROUND 5780 TO 5800M BY FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY. THIS MID/UPPER
LEVEL PATTERN FAVORS GENERAL STORMINESS (ACTIVE CONVECTIVE PERIOD)
FOR THE REGION. UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE TROUGH ALOFT... A BROAD
CYCLONIC FLOW WILL PERSIST FROM THE WSW ACROSS NC. WITH DAILY
SURFACE HEATING THE MLCAPE VALUES SHOULD EASILY ATTAIN 2000 J/KG BY
MID AFTERNOON. THIS WILL BE PLENTY OF FUEL FOR SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
THUNDERSTORMS IN THE MID TO LATE AFTERNOON... LASTING WELL INTO THE
NIGHT... WITH A MINIMUM OF ACTIVITY EXPECTED DURING THE MORNING
HOURS. DUE TO THE INCREASED CLOUDINESS AND CONVECTION DAILY FRIDAY
AND SATURDAY HIGHS ARE EXPECTED TO RANGE AROUND 88-95 (A FEW DEGREES
COOLER THAN IN RECENT DAYS). CONVERSELY... LOWS AT NIGHT WILL BE
WARMER WITH THE CLOUDS AND HIGHER DEW POINTS (MOSTLY 70-75).

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 157 PM WEDNESDAY...

THE UPPER TROUGH IS FORECAST TO GRADUALLY LIFT OUT OF THE REGION BY
MONDAY AND TUESDAY AS STRONG UPPER RIDGING BUILDS FROM THE SOUTHERN
ROCKIES EASTWARD OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AND MID-MISSISSIPPI
VALLEY. HOWEVER... THIS SHOULD CONTINUE TO BE A VERY ACTIVE
CONVECTIVE PATTERN FOR OUR REGION AS A WEAK SURFACE BOUNDARY WILL BE
WAVERING OVER THE MID-ATLANTIC STATES. ANY DISTURBANCES IN THE
INCREASINGLY DIFFLUENT FLOW ALOFT WILL AID IN TRIGGERING
CONVECTION... MAINLY DURING AND AFTER PEAK AFTERNOON HEATING. WE
WILL CARRY GOOD CHANCE POP FOR SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY (45-50
PERCENT)... MAINLY FOR 18Z-04Z DAILY. A MINIMUM IN CONVECTION SHOULD
OCCUR BETWEEN 08Z-17Z OR SO DAILY. LOWS WILL BE WARM WITH 70-75.
HIGHS SHOULD HOLD IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S NW... AND LOWER 90S OVER
THE SANDHILLS DAILY. OVERALL... RAINFALL SHOULD AVERAGE ABOVE
NORMAL. THIS IS A BIG CHANGE FROM THE RECENT PATTERN.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 200 PM WEDNESDAY...

24-HR TAF PERIOD:
VFR CONDITIONS ARE GENERALLY EXPECTED ACROSS ALL OF CENTRAL NC
THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD...EXCEPT IN ASSOC/W ISOLD TO SCT
THUNDERSTORMS BETWEEN ~21Z THIS AFTERNOON AND 06Z TONIGHT. DUE TO
CONSIDERABLE UNCERTAINTY IN THE TIMING/LOCATION OF CONVECTION...WILL
ONLY INCLUDE A LENGTHY 'SCT050CB' GROUP BETWEEN 21-04Z WHEN
CONVECTION APPEARS TO BE MOST LIKELY. WINDS WILL BE SOUTHWEST AT
10-15 KT MOST LOCATIONS THIS AFTERNOON...WITH OCCASIONAL GUSTS TO 20
KT. VARIABLE SFC WIND GUSTS AOA 50 KT WILL BE POSSIBLE IN ASSOC/W
ANY THUNDERSTORMS. WINDS WILL WEAKEN TO ~5 KT OVERNIGHT...THEN
INCREASE TO 10-15 KT WITH GUSTS UP TO 20 KT BY 15-18Z THU.

LOOKING AHEAD:
ISOLD TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED AGAIN THU AFT/EVE...
WITH ANY SUB-VFR CONDITIONS ASSOCIATED PRIMARILY WITH CONVECTION.
CHANCES FOR SHOWERS/STORMS WILL FURTHER INCREASE FRIDAY...AND
SUB-VFR CONDITIONS ASSOC/W CONVECTION (SOME SEVERE) WILL BE POSSIBLE
AT ALL TERMINALS. UNCERTAINTY PERSISTS OVER THE WEEKEND INTO EARLY
NEXT WEEK...HOWEVER...CONTINUED VFR CONDITIONS ARE GENERALLY
EXPECTED...WITH SUB-VFR CONDITIONS ASSOCIATED PRIMARILY WITH AFT/EVE
CONVECTION SAT/SUN/MON. -VINCENT
