AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
225 PM EDT THU JUL 21 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
STRONG HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT WILL EXTEND ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH
SATURDAY...BRINGING VERY HOT AND DRY CONDITIONS.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 210 PM THURSDAY...

...DANGEROUS HEAT WILL PERSIST...

REST OF TODAY THROUGH TONIGHT: THE STRONG MID LEVEL ANTICYCLONE
CONTINUES TO STRETCH FROM THE MID MISS VALLEY ACROSS KY/TN AND
THROUGH VA/NC. THE LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS STILL SHOWS A WEAK TROUGH
EXTENDING THROUGH THE EASTERN PIEDMONT OF NC/SC INTO CENTRAL GA.
ISOLATED CLUSTERS OF SLOW-MOVING STORMS HAVE DEVELOPED OVER THE
SOUTHERN PIEDMONT AND WRN SANDHILLS WITHIN THE WEAK STEERING
REGIME... ALONG THE MOISTURE DISCONTINUITY NOTED ON BOTH WATER VAPOR
AND BLENDED TPW IMAGERY OVER THE PIEDMONT... AND WITHIN AN AREA OF
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE POOLING AND A FOCUS OF HIGHER DEW POINTS.
FOLLOWING THIS TREND AND THE LATEST HRRR RUNS... WILL KEEP ISOLATED
POPS IN THIS REGION THROUGH EARLY EVENING... FOLLOWED BY A GRADUAL
DECREASE IN STORM CHANCE BY MIDNIGHT. THE WEAK DEEP LAYER SHEAR...
WARM MID LEVELS... AND LOW PRECIPITABLE WATER WILL CONTINUE TO LIMIT
COVERAGE... ALTHOUGH ANY STORM IS LIKELY TO PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY
DOWNPOURS. FORECAST HIGHS OF 94-104 STILL LOOK GOOD AS TEMPS ARE
STILL PACING ABOUT 1-4 DEGREES HIGHER THAN THIS TIME YESTERDAY. THE
HEAT ADVISORY WILL REMAIN IN PLACE UNTIL 8 PM. FOLLOWING PERSISTENCE
MORE CLOSELY THAN STATISTICAL GUIDANCE... EXPECT MUGGY LOWS TONIGHT
OF 73-78. AREAS OF MVFR FOG AND HAZE SHOULD ONCE AGAIN DEVELOP
OVERNIGHT... PARTICULARLY FROM HIGHWAY 1 EAST.

FOR FRIDAY... VERY LITTLE CHANGE IS ANTICIPATED IN THE OVERALL
PATTERN. THE MID LEVEL ANTICYCLONE CONTINUES ITS EVERY SO SLOW
EASTWARD DRIFT OVERHEAD... LEADING TO VERY WEAK DEEP LAYER SHEAR.
SURFACE TROUGHING HOLD THROUGH THE PIEDMONT... AND PRECIP WATER
VALUES SHOULD SIT CLOSE TO NORMAL. MODELS HAVE WIDE VARIABILITY WITH
RESPECT TO WHERE AFTERNOON CONVECTION MIGHT INITIATE... SO WILL
AGAIN FOLLOW CLOSE TO PERSISTENCE AND PLACE ISOLATED STORM CHANCES
OVER THE CENTRAL/SRN PIEDMONT INTO THE ADJACENT SANDHILLS AND
COASTAL PLAIN... WHERE LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND SURFACE DEW POINTS
WILL BE GREATEST. REGARDING TEMPS... GIVEN THAT THICKNESSES WILL
CONTINUE TO RISE... LIKELY TO BE AT LEAST A FEW METERS HIGHER THAN
TODAY... AND FACTORING IN THE OBSERVED TEMPS FROM YESTERDAY AND
TODAY... EXPECT HIGHS OF 96-104. HAVE LITTLE DOUBT THAT A HEAT
ADVISORY IS NEEDED FOR FRIDAY... HOWEVER THE DECISION TO GO WITH AN
EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING IS A MORE DIFFICULT ONE. INTERESTINGLY...
LOOKING AT THE CIPS EXPERIMENTAL WARM SEASON ANALOGS AND
SPECIFICALLY AT THE TOP THREE BEST-CORRELATED CASES... THE HIGH
TEMPS DURING THESE EVENTS WERE GENERALLY 96-104... WITH MAX HEAT
INDICES OF 99-108. THE MODELS CONTINUE TO MIX OUT OUR SURFACE DEW
POINTS TOMORROW AFTERNOON... DROPPING THEM WELL DOWN INTO THE 60S
ESPECIALLY IN THE WESTERN CWA. BUT AS WAS THE CASE YESTERDAY AND SO
FAR TODAY... DEW POINTS DROPPED NO FURTHER THAN THE UPPER 60S TO
LOWER 70S OVER THE AREA. FOLLOWING THIS PATTERN FOR TOMORROW WITH
THESE FORECAST HIGHS YIELDS MAXIMUM HEAT INDEX VALUES OF 108-112
FROM HIGHWAY 1 EAST AND 102-108 WEST. THESE SUCCESSIVE DAYS OF
OPPRESSIVE HEAT WITH LITTLE COOLING AT NIGHT WILL FURTHER INCREASE
THE HEAT STRESS AND PUBLIC HEALTH THREAT... ESPECIALLY IN URBAN
AREAS WHERE HEAT INDEX VALUES COULD BE LOCALLY HIGHER... AND
PARTICULARLY FOR THE VULNERABLE POPULATIONS. WILL ISSUE AN EXCESSIVE
HEAT WARNING FOR FRIDAY ALONG/EAST OF A LINE FROM ROCKINGHAM TO CARY
TO ROANOKE RAPIDS... WITH AN ADVISORY IN EFFECT WEST OF THIS LINE.
-GIH

&&

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

RIDGING ALOFT AND ASSOCIATED HEAT WILL HOLD FIRM SAT...BEFORE
RETROGRESSING SLOWLY WESTWARD THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEKEND. A
RESULTANT PERSISTENCE FORECAST FOR SAT SUGGESTS TEMPERATURES AND
HEAT INDICES SHOULD REACH SIMILAR LEVELS AS THOSE EXPECTED ON
FRI...WHILE THE RETROGRESSION OF THE RIDGE SHOULD YIELD HIGHS A
DEGREE OR TWO LESS HOT FOR SUN. AN EXCESSIVE HEAT WATCH HAS
ACCORDINGLY BEEN ISSUED FOR ALL BUT THE NW PIEDMONT FOR SAT...AND A
HEAT ADVISORY WILL LIKELY BE REQUIRED FOR ALL OF CENTRAL NC FOR SUN.

STEERING FLOW WILL BACK TO WEST TO NW AND STRENGTHEN FROM AROUND 5
KTS SAT TO 15 KTS OR SO BY SUN...WHICH SUGGESTS MOUNTAIN
CONVECTION/OUTFLOW WILL STAND A PROGRESSIVELY BETTER CHANCE OF
PROPAGATING INTO THE WESTERN PIEDMONT THAN RECENT DAYS. MEANWHILE...
THE LEE TROUGH AND SEA-BREEZE/OUTFLOW WILL ALSO SERVE AS TRIGGERS
FOR ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCATTERED CONVECTION EACH AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. -MWS

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 140 PM THURSDAY...

MEDIUM RANGE NWP GUIDANCE SUGGESTS A CONTINUED RETROGRESSION OF THE
HEAT WAVE-CAUSING RIDGE ALOFT...AND RESULTANT TROUGHING/CYCLONIC
FLOW ALOFT OVER THE MIDDLE ATLANTIC REGION...EARLY TO MID NEXT WEEK.
AS SUCH...TEMPERATURES WILL RETURN TO MORE SEASONABLE LEVELS
GENERALLY IN THE 89 TO 94 DEGREE RANGE...WHILE THE COVERAGE OF MUCH
NEEDED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL INCREASE BY MON-TUE.
COVERAGE/CHANCES SHOULD BE HIGHEST MON (AROUND 40 PERCENT)...WHEN A
COLD FRONT WILL MAKE A CLOSE APPROACH INTO VA...AND SUBSEQUENT
OUTFLOW FORCING IS MOST APT TO DRIFT SOUTHWARD INTO CENTRAL NC. THE
HOT RIDGE IS THEN FORECAST TO MIGRATE EASTWARD ONCE AGAIN BY
THU...BUT SOUTH TO SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW AROUND OFFSHORE HIGH PRESSURE
MAY KEEP THE RETURN OF UPPER 90S TO AROUND 100 DEGREE HEAT AT BAY
THROUGH THU. -MWS

&&

.AVIATION /18Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 130 PM THURSDAY...

VFR CONDITIONS WILL DOMINATE THROUGH THIS EVENING WITH A HOT AIR
MASS LOCKED OVER THE REGION... FROM THE MIDATLANTIC AND NC BACK WEST
ACROSS THE OH VALLEY. ISOLATED SLOW-MOVING STORMS WILL PRODUCE VERY
LOCALIZED POCKETS OF MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS OVER CENTRAL NC.
CONFIDENCE IN ANY SUCH STORM AFFECTING AREA AIRPORTS IS LOW... AND
STORMS SHOULD BE LARGELY CIRCUMNAVIGABLE... ALTHOUGH THE BEST CHANCE
OF A STORM WILL BE AT RDU/FAY THROUGH 02Z. IN AN NEAR ISOLATED
STORMS... GUSTS OVER 35 KTS ARE POSSIBLE. OTHERWISE... CLOUD BASES
WILL HOLD ABOVE 5 KFT WITH VFR VSBYS THROUGH NIGHTFALL. AREAS OF
MVFR FOG AND HAZE ARE LIKELY OVERNIGHT... AFTER 07Z... MAINLY AT
RDU/RWI/FAY. THIS WILL LIFT AND MIX OUT TOWARD 14Z FRIDAY MORNING...
WITH SCATTERED CONVECTIVE CLOUDS BASED ABOVE 4 KFT AGAIN DEVELOPING
NEAR OR AFTER 16Z.

LOOKING BEYOND EARLY FRIDAY AFTERNOON... ISOLATED CONVECTION MAY
AGAIN AFFECT RDU/FAY FROM MID AFTERNOON INTO EARLY EVENING.
OTHERWISE... VFR CONDITIONS WILL HOLD WITH THE HOT WEATHER
PERSISTING THROUGH SATURDAY... ALTHOUGH THE RISK OF POCKETS OF
DAYBREAK MVFR FOG MAINLY AT RDU/RWI/FAY WILL REMAIN. THE CHANCE OF
SHOWERS/STORMS WILL RISE LATE SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY AS A FRONT
APPROACHES FROM THE NNW. -GIH
