AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
234 PM EDT TUE JUN 28 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A SURFACE FRONT WILL APPROACH CENTRAL NC THIS AFTERNOON AND CROSS
THE REGION TONIGHT. SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
WILL OCCUR AHEAD OF THIS FEATURE. DRIER MORE STABLE AIR WILL
OVERSPREAD THE REGION WEDNESDAY. VERY WARM AND DRY CONDITIONS
EXPECTED THROUGH THE REST OF THE WORK WEEK... AND INTO THE WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 225 PM TUESDAY...

TONIGHT...INTENSE HEATING THIS AFTERNOON COUPLED WITH MOIST AIR MASS
(PRECIP WATER VALUES OFF BLENDED SATELLITE TOTAL PRECIP WATER AROUND
1.7 INCHES) LEADING TO A MODERATELY UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE WITH MLCAPE
VALUES OFF THE 17Z MESO ANALYSIS 2500-3000 J/KG IN THE WESTERN
PIEDMONT. HAND ANALYSIS DEPICTS A WEAK SURFACE TROUGH SW-NE ACROSS
THE PIEDMONT AND THIS IS STARTING TO SHOW UP ON THE VISIBLE
SATELLITE IMAGERY AS A LINE OF ENHANCED CU. APPROACH OF A MID LEVEL
TROUGH FROM EASTERN TN WILL SERVE TO DEEPEN THE LOW LEVEL TROUGH
WHICH WILL FOCUS LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE IN THIS REGION. MEANWHILE
UPPER LEVEL JET OVER EASTERN LAKES PROJECTED TO CROSS SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND/NORTHERN MID ATLANTIC TONIGHT. THIS FEATURE WILL INCREASE
UPPER DIVERGENCE OVER OUR REGION ESPECIALLY AFTER 00Z.
THUS...APPEARS THAT CENTRAL NC SHOULD SEE SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
SHOWERS AND T-STORMS DEVELOP BY MID-LATE AFTERNOON...MAINLY OVER THE
PIEDMONT COUNTIES. THESE SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL DRIFT EWD WITH TIME
AS WINDS ALOFT ARE RELATIVELY WEAK (20KTS OR LESS).

WHILE THE WINDS ALOFT THAT NOT ALL THAT IMPRESSIVE...THE INTENSE
HEATING AT THE SURFACE RESULT IN SURFACE DEWPOINT SPREADS 20-25
DEGREES. THIS ENVIRONMENT SUPPORT OF INVERTED VEE
SOUNDINGS...SUGGESTING DAMAGING DOWNBURST WINDS. THIS IS MOST LIKELY
TO OCCUR WITH STORMS THAT HAVE PERSISTENT UPDRAFTS WHICH WILL CAUSE
PRECIP LOADING ALOFT.

DUE TO THE SLOW MOVEMENT...ANY STORMS THAT OCCUR OVER URBANIZED
AREAS OR POOR DRAINAGE AREA MAY RESULT IN LOCALIZED FLOODING.

AFTER 11 PM...EXPECT MOST OF THE CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY TO OCCUR EAST
OF HIGHWAY 1. SCATTERED CONVECTION MAY OCCUR WELL PAST MIDNIGHT IN
THE EAST AS MID LEVEL TROUGH DRIFTS SLOWLY EAST AND UPPER JET
PROVIDES THE COASTAL PLAIN WITH UPPER LEVEL LIFT.

MIN TEMPS TONIGHT MAINLY UPPER 60S TO THE LOWER 70S.

WEDNESDAY...FOCUS FOR SCATTERED CONVECTION WILL REMAIN OVER THE
CENTRAL-SOUTHERN COASTAL PLAIN AND THE EASTERN SANDHILLS AS A
SURFACE FRONT AND ASSOCIATED MID LEVEL TROUGH DRIFT E-SE ACROSS THE
REGION. THE LATEST MODEL GUIDANCE A TAD FASTER WITH THE EWD MOVEMENT
WITH SOME OF THE MORE AGGRESSIVE MODELS DEPICTING THE SURFACE FRONT
EXITING OUR SE COUNTIES BY 18Z.

THE POSITION OF THE THE UPPER TROUGH AXIS JUST EAST OF THE SOUTHERN
APPALACHIANS AT 12 UTC WED IS PRETTY CONSISTENT AMONG THE
NAM/GFS/ECMWF. THE ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO BE NEAR THE
I-95 REGION AROUND DAYBREAK WED. THE COLD FRONT WILL MOVE SLOWLY
EAST ON WED AND WED NIGHT...MOVING OFFSHORE BY 12 UTC THU.
NAM/GFS/ECMWF DYNAMIC TROPOPAUSE FORECASTS INDICATE AN AMPLIFYING
DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE ACROSS TN/GA/SC LATE WED AND WED NIGHT...THIS
WILL INITIATE A WEAK SFC WAVE ALONG THE FRONT WHICH MAY SLOW THE
EASTWARD MOTION AND ENHANCE PRECIPITATION CHANCES ALONG AND AHEAD OF
THE FRONT. AIRMASS NEAR AND AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL BE MOIST AND
MODESTLY UNSTABLE WITH SFC DEW POINTS IN THE LOW 70S AND AFTN MLCAPE
VALUES OVER 1000 J/KG. AIRMASS BEHIND THE FRONT WILL DRY NOTICEABLY
WITH DEW POINTS FALLING TO NEAR 60 ACROSS THE TRIAD BY WED EVE. PW
VALUES WILL RANGE FROM AROUND 2 INCHES AT KMHX TO LESS THAN AN INCH
AT KGSO. WITH THIS IN MIND WILL KEEP FORECAST DRY ACROSS THE WESTERN
PIEDMONT WITH INCREASING CHANCES OF PRECIP ACROSS THE EASTERN
PIEDMONT AND COASTAL PLAIN WHERE POPS WILL MAX OUT NEAR 40 PERCENT.
THE WEAK WIND FIELD AND MODEST INSTABILITY SUGGEST THAT SEVERE
WEATHER THREAT IS LIMITED. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL RANGE IN THE 87-93
RANGE WITH THE COOLEST TEMPS ACROSS THE COASTAL PLAIN WHERE CLOUDS
AND SCT PRECIP WILL KEEP TEMPS DOWN.

CONVECTION SHOULD DIMINISH DURING THE EVENING ON WED AND DRY
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO ARRIVE OVERNIGHT. BEHIND THE FRONT A
DRIER AIRMASS WITH DEW POINTS NEAR AND SUB 60 WILL MOVE INTO CENTRAL
NC FROM THE NW. LOW TEMPS ON WED NIGHT WILL RANGE IN THE 60-71 RANGE
WITH SOME BUST POTENTIAL AS MIN TEMPS WILL DEPEND ON THE TIMING OF
THE AIRMASS CHANGE. OFTEN TIMES IN THIS SCENARIO THE SLOWER TIMING
IS THE BETTER COURSE TO TAKE. -BLAES

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 200 PM TUESDAY...

THIS PERIOD WILL FEATURE WARMING CONDITIONS AND GENERALLY DRY
WEATHER... ALTHOUGH WE MAY BE INCREASINGLY AT THE MERCY OF UPSTREAM
MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE SYSTEMS AND/OR THEIR REMNANTS AS WE HEAD INTO
THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND.

FOR THURSDAY/THURSDAY NIGHT: THE CLOSED MID LEVEL LOW OVER SOUTH
CENTRAL QUEBEC EARLY THURSDAY WILL MOVE SLOWLY TO THE EAST OVER THE
MARITIMES WHILE GRADUALLY BECOMING ABSORBED BY A LARGER DIGGING
TROUGH OVER NRN QUEBEC. THE BAGGY MID LEVEL TROUGH EXTENDING FROM
THIS LOW THROUGH THE CAROLINAS IS EXPECTED TO EASE VERY SLOWLY TO
THE ESE... PROPELLED BY THE RIDGE BUILDING OVER THE NATION'S
MIDSECTION TO THE UPPER MIDWEST. AT THE SURFACE... HIGH PRESSURE
WILL REMAIN CENTERED TO OUR NNW OVER OH/WV/WRN PA WITH THE FRONTAL
ZONE HOLDING ALONG THE EASTERN EDGE OF THE CWA. MODELS DEPICT ONE
VORTICITY MAXIMUM DROPPING TO THE SE ACROSS VA AND SWEEPING THROUGH
NE NC DURING THE EVENING HOURS... HOWEVER IT APPEARS THAT THE COLUMN
WILL BE QUITE DRY WITH CLIMATOLOGICALLY LOW SURFACE DEW POINTS...
AND MODEL-PROJECTED INSTABILITY IS LOW AS WELL. THUS... EXPECT THE
VAST MAJORITY OF THE AREA TO REMAIN DRY. HIGHS 88-92 WITH PROGGED
THICKNESSES CLOSE TO NORMAL. LOWS 64-69.

FOR FRIDAY/FRIDAY NIGHT: THE MID LEVEL TROUGH AXIS CONTINUES TO EASE
OFF TO OUR SE AS THE MID LEVEL RIDGE GAINS STRENGTH OVER MO/IL...
PLACING NC BENEATH A WEAK NNW MID LEVEL FLOW. WEAK FLOW HOLDS AT THE
SURFACE AS WELL WITH LEE TROUGHING OVER THE PIEDMONT AND THE HIGH
PRESSURE CENTERED TO OUR NORTH CONTINUING TO WEAKEN AND BECOME MORE
DIFFUSE. THE NAM/GFS/ECMWF DEPICT MCS ACTIVITY THURSDAY NIGHT OVER
LOWER MI... AND THE MEAN CLOUD LAYER FLOW SUGGESTS THAT ANY
RESULTANT MCV WOULD DROP SSE THROUGH NC LATE FRIDAY OR FRIDAY
NIGHT... HOWEVER AT THIS TIME RANGE IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO TIME
SUCH FEATURES WITH ANY ACCURACY... OR EVEN HAVE MUCH FAITH IN THEIR
EXISTENCE. WITH LOW DEEP-LAYER SHEAR... SCANT MOISTURE... AND VERY
WEAK TO ABSENT FORCING MECHANISMS... WILL STAY WITH A DRY FORECAST
FOR NOW. THICKNESSES STEADILY REBOUND AS MID LEVEL HEIGHTS SLOWLY
RISE... POINTING TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL HIGHS OF 89-93... UNDER
PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES WITH SCATTERED TO BROKEN SHALLOW CUMULUS. LOWS
67-71 WITH FAIR SKIES. -GIH

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 200 PM TUESDAY...

THE UPCOMING HOLIDAY WEEKEND IS SHAPING UP TO BE A HOT ONE (SEE
CLIMATE SECTION BELOW)... WITH VERY LOW CHANCES FOR RAIN. THE MID
LEVEL RIDGE TO OUR WEST WILL STEADILY EXPAND EASTWARD OVER THE
CAROLINAS AS THE PRIMARY BELT OF WESTERLIES GETS SUPPRESSED WELL TO
OUR NORTH ACROSS THE U.S./CANADIAN BORDER... WHILE THE WEAK LEE
SURFACE TROUGH SITS OVER THE PIEDMONT THROUGH THE PERIOD. THE
POTENTIAL PERSISTS FOR SUBTLE WAVES AND/OR AN MCV TO DROP THROUGH NC
SATURDAY/SUNDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH EVENING AND KICK OF A FEW
STORMS... HOWEVER THE HIGH UNCERTAINTY WITH RESPECT TO TIMING AND
PLACEMENT OF ANY SUCH FEATURE PRECLUDES ADDING ANY MENTION TO THE
FORECAST AT THIS TIME. MID LEVEL WARMTH OVERHEAD BECOMES EVEN MORE
PROFOUND BY JULY 4TH... GREATLY LIMITING CONVECTION... ALTHOUGH
GIVEN THE STRONG SURFACE HEATING AND POSSIBILITY OF LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE POOLING TO CREATE LOCAL POCKETS OF HIGHER INSTABILITY BY
AFTERNOON... AN ISOLATED LATE-DAY STORM OR TWO IS CERTAINLY NOT OUT
OF THE QUESTION. BY TUESDAY... MODELS SUGGEST THAT A DEEPENING AND
BROADENING VORTEX OVER HUDSON BAY WILL PUSH THE WESTERLIES A BIT TO
THE SOUTH (WITH FLOW TO OUR NW BECOMING INCREASINGLY CYCLONIC) AND
HELP LOWER HEIGHTS OVER THE OHIO VALLEY ENOUGH TO PUSH A COLD FRONT
INTO THE CENTRAL/SRN APPALACHIANS. WILL NOT SHOW A LARGE TREND
TOWARD WET WEATHER AT THIS FAR RANGE... HOWEVER WE WILL INCH MORE
TOWARD CLIMATOLOGICAL PRECIP CHANCES FOR TUESDAY. AFTER WELL ABOVE
NORMAL TEMPS SATURDAY INTO MONDAY THE 4TH... EXPECT TEMPS TO REMAIN
JUST ABOVE SEASONAL NORMALS ON TUESDAY. -GIH

&&

.AVIATION /17Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 1215 PM TUESDAY...

A MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIR MASS COUPLED WITH THE APPROACH OF A SURFACE
FRONT WILL HELP TO INITIATE SCATTER TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND T-STORMS
ACROSS CENTRAL NC LATE THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH TONIGHT. WHILE A
SHOWER OR TWO IS POSSIBLE IN THE COASTAL PLAIN THROUGH 4 PM...MOST
OF THE SHOWERS AND STORMS SHOULD INITIALLY DEVELOP OVER THE WESTERN
PIEDMONT LATE THIS AFTERNOON THEN PROGRESS E-SE. AFTER 10 PM...MOST
OF THE SHOWERS AND STORMS SHOULD OCCUR ALONG AND EAST OF HIGHWAY 1.
IN VICINITY OF THE STORMS...EXPECT MVFR CEILING AND IFR VISIBILITY
ALONG WITH FREQUENT LIGHTNING STRIKES AND WIND GUSTS 30-35KTS. A FEW
SEVERE STORMS PROBABLE WITH THE PRIMARY SEVERE WEATHER THREAT BEING
DAMAGING DOWNBURST WINDS.

SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL LIKELY PERSIST THROUGH MUCH OF THE
NIGHT...ESPECIALLY EAST OF HIGHWAY 1 AS THE MID LEVEL TROUGH SLOWLY
DRIFTS E-SE. POTENTIAL FOR LOW STRATUS AND MVFR/IFR FOG TO OCCUR
AFTER 10 PM OVER THE EASTERN PIEDMONT...SANDHILLS AND COASTAL PLAIN.
IF THE STRATUS AND FOG DEVELOP....IT SHOULD BURN OFF BY 10 AM
WEDNESDAY.

CONVECTION WILL DIMINISH TO COVERAGE ON WEDNESDAY AS DRIER MORE
STABLE AIR GRADUALLY OVERSPREADS THE REGION FROM THE NORTH. STILL
COULD BE A THREAT FOR CONVECTION IN THE KFAY VICINITY THROUGH
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.

MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY AS DRIER MORE
STABLE AIR SETTLES OVER THE REGION. MAY SEE A FEW HOURS OF MVFR FOG
EACH MORNING WHILE ANY AFTERNOON-EVENING CONVECTION WILL BE ISOLATED.

147 PM EDT TUE JUN 28 2011

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.

SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA
THIS AFTERNOON. WHILE A STORM OR TWO MAY DEVELOP IN THE COASTAL
PLAIN BY 4 PM...THE MAJORITY OF THE STORMS WILL INITIALLY DEVELOP IN
THE WESTERN PIEDMONT BETWEEN 2 AND 5 PM THEN MOVE EAST SOUTHEAST
ACROSS THE REST OF THE REGION. A FEW OF THE STORMS MAY BE
SEVERE...PRODUCING DAMAGING DOWNBURST WINDS. IN ADDITION...SOME OF
THE STORMS WILL PRODUCE AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF LIGHTNING.

SINCE THE AIR MASS ACROSS OUR REGION IS QUITE MOIST AND THE WINDS
ALOFT RELATIVELY LIGHT...LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL OCCUR WITH SOME
OF THE STORMS. THIS MAY LEAD TO LOCALIZED FLOODING...ESPECIALLY NEAR
URBAN AND POOR DRAINAGE AREAS.

THE THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE GREATEST BETWEEN 3 PM AND
MIDNIGHT.

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

HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS NOT EXPECTED AT THIS TIME.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SKYWARN SPOTTERS ACTIVATION IS LIKELY LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS
EVENING. SPOTTERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO REPORT ANY SEVERE OR SIGNIFICANT
WEATHER IMMEDIATELY TO THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE.
