AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
1005 PM EDT SUN AUG 14 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
AN UNSEASONABLY STRONG UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AND ATTENDANT SURFACE COLD
FRONT WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION LATE TODAY AND TONIGHT...WITH THE
UPPER TROUGH SLOWLY PUSHING EAST AND OFFSHORE MONDAY NIGHT. HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS IN FOR TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. CONDITIONS WILL BECOME
MORE MOIST AND UNSETTLED AGAIN LATE IN THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 1005 PM SUNDAY...

LOCAL SEVERE WEATHER STILL OCCURRING IN A SMALL AREA WITH A CLUSTER
OF THUNDERSTORMS APPROACHING THE TRIANGLE FROM THE WEST. THE LATEST
MSAS SHOWS GOOD SURFACE-BASED INSTABILITY LINGERING OVER PARTS OF
CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA AHEAD OF THE UPPER TROUGH...WITH LIFTED
INDICES TO -6C JUST EAST OF THE TRIANGLE. SOME OF THE SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS LIKELY WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP IN THE INSTABILITY AS
UPPER DIFFLUENCE APPEARS MAXIMIZED ON WATER VAPOR OVER THE REGION.
ONCE THESE SHOWERS AND STORMS DIMINISH OR MOVE OFF TO THE EAST...
BUFR SOUNDINGS SHOW CONDITIONS BECOMING FAIRLY STABLE AND THE
CHANCES FOR ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT CURRENTLY APPEARS SMALL.
OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL CONTINUE TO BE FORECAST ABOUT AS IS...WITH
LOCATIONS THAT RECEIVED RAINFALL EXPECTED TO FALL LITTLE DURING THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS DUE TO ANY RESIDUAL CLOUDS AND MIXING AROUND THE
UPPER TROUGH.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 130 PM SUNDAY...

THE APPROACHING UPPER TROUGH AXIS IS OVERHEAD MONDAY...AND BOTH THE
NAM AND THE GFS FORECAST A MODERATELY-STRONG MID-LEVEL SHORTWAVE
MOVING FROM THE NORTHWEST AND INTO CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA BETWEEN
18Z MONDAY AND 00Z TUESDAY. WHILE BUFR SOUNDINGS ARE NOT IMPRESSIVE
IN TERMS OF INSTABILITY...500MB TEMPERATURES FALL TO BELOW -10C
MAINLY ALONG AND NORTH OF U.S. 64...WITH A SUBTLE TROUGH OF
MARGINALLY LOWER 500MB TEMPERATURES LATE IN THE DAY OVER THE
NORTHEAST PIEDMONT AND NORTHERN COASTAL PLAIN. IT IS BASICALLY IN
THIS AREA WHERE THE GUIDANCE SUGGESTS 1000-500MB LAPSE RATES SHOULD
BE APPROACHING 7C/KM MONDAY AFTERNOON...WITH MLCAPE NEAR 1000J/KG
AND -10C TO -30C CAPE AROUND 500J/KG. IN ADDITION...IN A SMALL AREA
OVER THE NORTHERN COASTAL PLAIN...PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES ARE
FORECAST TO SHOW A RELATIVE MAXIMUM AS COMPARED TO THE REST OF
CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA...JUST OVER 1.5 INCHES THERE. A FEW LINGERING
CLOUDS AND...IN FACT...LIKELY A DECENT AMOUNT OF SUN IN THE MORNING
SHOULD THEN TURN TO A NOTICEABLE INCREASE IN CLOUDS ESPECIALLY ALONG
AND NORTH OF U.S. 64 IN COOLER TEMPERATURES ALOFT WITH A MORE
GRADUAL INCREASE AND NOT AS MUCH CLOUD COVERAGE TOWARD KMEB...
KFAY...AND KCTZ. WILL FORECAST CHANCES FOR AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORMS
MAINLY ALONG AND NORTH OF A LINE FROM ABOUT KTDF TO KGSB DURING THE
LATE AFTERNOON MONDAY...WITH THE HIGHER POPS NORTH OF KGSB ALONG THE
INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR. CHANCES FOR ANY SHOWER OR STORM MAY BE
PRETTY LIMITED ESPECIALLY IN THE SOUTHWEST PIEDMONT WEST OF
KFAY...BUT GIVEN THE APPROACH OF THE SHORTWAVE IN THE AFTERNOON IN
THE TROUGH AXIS ALOFT...WILL REFRAIN FROM CUTTING CHANCES THAT FINE
FOR NOW. CONTEMPLATING THE MENTION OF A STRONG THUNDERSTORM IN THE
HWO DUE TO THE LIFT AND INSTABILITY IN THE COOL TROUGH ALOFT...
ESPECIALLY NORTHEAST. HIGHS SHOULD BE APPROACHING 85 IN THE
TRIAD...AND AROUND 90 IN THE SOUTHEAST WHERE SUN SHOULD BE MORE
ABUNDANT LONGER.

ANY LINGERING SHOWERS IN THE FAR NORTHEAST MONDAY NIGHT DIMINISH
QUICKLY AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN...WITH SURFACE RIDGING AND
SUBSIDENT EVIDENT BY 06Z TUESDAY. BUFR SOUNDINGS SHOW A CAP BETWEEN
600MB AND 700MB BECOMING STRONGER FOR TUESDAY AFTERNOON...WITH THE
GFS IN PARTICULAR VERY DRY AND STABLE. AFTER DAYTIME HIGHS IN THE
UPPER 80S TO AROUND 90 TUESDAY IN A DRY AIR MASS...NIGHTTIME LOWS
TUESDAY NIGHT...ESPECIALLY IN SOME OF THE TYPICALLY COOLER LOCATIONS
NORTHEAST...COULD FALL CLOSE TO 60 DEGREES.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 130 PM SUNDAY...

LONG-TERM GUIDANCE SUPPORTS MID- AND UPPER-LEVEL TROUGHINESS IN THE
EAST DURING THIS PERIOD...INCLUDING THE MID-ATLANTIC AND THE
CAROLINAS...WITH PERIODS OF GREATER DIFFLUENCE ESPECIALLY AS THE
WEEK WEARS ON. THE TIMING OF INDIVIDUAL MID-LEVEL SHORTWAVES IS...OF
COURSE...DIFFICULT IN THE EXTENDED...BUT THE PATTERN WOULD SUGGEST A
GRADUAL INCREASE FOR CHANCES OF SHOWERS AS WE APPROACH THE END OF
THE WEEK. ON WEDNESDAY...GUIDANCE CHANCES FOR SHOWERS ARE
LOW...MOSTLY ON THE CUSP OF SLIGHT CHANCE...AND BASED ON HIGH
PRESSURE FORECAST AT THE SURFACE THROUGH EARLY WEDNESDAY...WITH A
RETURN FLOW BEGINNING LATE IN THE DAY...ANY CHANCES FOR SHOWERS OR
THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD BE LOW AND CONFINED MOSTLY TO THE WEST...WHERE
UPSLOPE FLOW COULD RESULT IN ISOLATED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
MOVING OUT OF THE HIGHER TERRAIN TOWARD THE WESTERN PIEDMONT LATE IN
THE DAY AND DURING THE EVENING. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES ARE ALSO
RELATIVELY LOW...FROM ABOUT 1.25 INCHES TO JUST SHY OF 1.5 INCHES.
WILL KEEP THE FORECAST DRY FOR NOW...BUT AN ISOLATED SHOWER OR
THUNDERSTORM...MOVING WITH THE NORTH-TO-SOUTH THERMAL WIND BASED ON
THE THICKNESS FORECAST...COULD COME CLOSE TO THE YADKIN RIVER VERY
LATE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON OR EARLY WEDNESDAY EVENING.

PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES INCREASE THURSDAY...AND WITH MORE OF A
SURFACE TROUGH EXPECTED TO DEVELOP AS HIGH PRESSURE RETREATS...
CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS INCREASE. STILL ANTICIPATE
THE HIGHER CHANCES IN THE WESTERN PIEDMONT...WITH THE GREATER
CHANCES OF THUNDERSTORMS COMING FRIDAY AT THIS POINT. LONG-TERM
GUIDANCE IS CONSISTENT WITH ITS GREATEST MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY ON
FRIDAY...NOTING THESE ON PRECIPITABLE WATER FORECASTS AND COARSE
MODEL SOUNDINGS...AND GFS MOS ENSEMBLE POPS ARE SOLIDLY IN THE
CHANCE CATEGORY BY THEN. IN TIME...WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE
POPS ON FRIDAY SLOWLY BE INCREASED IN LATER FORECASTS.

SATURDAY...THE TIMING OF THE PASSAGE OF THE UPPER TROUGH IS A LITTLE
FASTER ON THE 00Z ECMWF VERSUS THE GFS...AND LEANING TOWARD THE
FORMER AS THE LATTER HAS A PRECIPITABLE WATER FORECAST THAT WOULD
SUGGEST A FASTER SOLUTION...WITH VALUES FALLING BELOW 1.5 INCHES IN
THE NORTHWEST...WILL MAINTAIN CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
MAINLY ALONG AND EAST OF U.S. 1. WHILE ON SUNDAY THE GFS CONTINUES
TO BE SOMEWHAT UNSTABLE...THE 00Z ECMWF FORECASTS A SHORTWAVE
MID-LEVEL RIDGE WITH COARSE SOUNDINGS THAT ARE FAIRLY STABLE. EVEN
THE MORE UNSTABLE GFS FORECASTS A SUBTLE INCREASE IN LOW-LEVEL
CAPPING ON ITS COARSE MODEL SOUNDINGS SUNDAY...SO FOR THE SEVENTH
DAY...WILL KEEP THE FORECAST DRY. TEMPERATURES THROUGH THIS PERIOD
WILL BE AT OR ABOUT A CATEGORY ABOVE THE NORMAL RANGE.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 740 PM SUNDAY...

24-HR TAF PERIOD:
OUTSIDE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED
DURING THE 00Z VALID TAF PERIOD. THIS EVENING...GIVEN THE STRENGTH
OF THE UPPER-LEVEL SYSTEM ROTATING AROUND THE LOWER GREAT LAKES AND
SOUTH INTO THE CAROLINAS...THUNDERSTORMS WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO
PRODUCE GUSTY WINDS. OVERNIGHT...WINDS WILL VEER TO THE NORTHWEST IN
MANY LOCATIONS AND AFTER SUNRISE MONDAY...MIXING SHOULD RESULT IN
WEST TO NORTHWEST WINDS SUSTAINED CLOSE TO 10KT WITH OCCASIONAL
GUSTS IN THE TEENS KTS. ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE MONDAY AFTERNOON...WITH THE BEST CHANCE
OF THESE EXPECTED TO BE FROM AROUND KRWI NORTH AND NORTHWEST.

LOOKING AHEAD:
VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO PREVAIL MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH
THURSDAY. EXPECT SYNOPTIC SUBSIDENCE AND VFR CONDITIONS ON TUE/WED.
A SMALL CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS IS EXPECTED THURS IN ASSOC/W
SOUTHERLY RETURN FLOW IN ADVANCE OF A WEAK FRONT...WITH THE BETTER
CHANCES TOWARD KGSO AND KINT. THEN...EXPECT A BETTER CHANCE OF
SHOWERS/STORMS ON FRIDAY THROUGHOUT CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA ASSOC/W
UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES IN CYCLONIC FLOW ALOFT.
