What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Wilmington, NC wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 1, 3:34 PM EDT, 2 hours 11 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 1, 3:34 PM EDT, 2 hours 11 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...COR
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON NC
334 PM EDT FRI JUN 1 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
AN UNSEASONABLY STRONG UPPER TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT
WILL BRING A FEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TO THE EASTERN CAROLINAS
THIS AFTERNOON AND OVERNIGHT. DRIER AND SLIGHTLY COOLER AIR WILL
OVERSPREAD THE REGION SATURDAY AND SUNDAY FOLLOWING THE COLD
FRONT. ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE AREA TUESDAY MORNING.
AN UPPER TROUGH LINGERING ALONG THE EASTERN SEABOARD COULD BRING
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS MUCH OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/...
AS OF 330 PM FRIDAY...HAVE UPDATED FORECAST TO REFLECT THE WATCH
AND THE PRE FRONTAL TROUGH THAT IS FIRING UP JUST WEST OF THE
AREA. STILL A COMPLEX FORECAST AS MORE CONVECTION MAY FIRE ALONG
THE TRAILING FRONT. HAVE APPLIED A NEAR TERM STRATEGY OF
CATEGORICAL POPS FOR WESTERN COUNTIES THEN A VERY BRIEF LULL
INCREASING ONCE AGAIN THIS EVENING AND EXTENDING TO THE EAST
LATER.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 330 PM FRIDAY...TREMENDOUSLY DIFFERENT FEEL TO THE WEATHER
THIS WEEKEND AS AN UNSEASONABLY ROBUST COLD FRONT MOVES OFFSHORE
FOLLOWED BY COOL AIR ADVECTION AND DRIER AIR INTO THE REGION.
THIS WILL RESULT IN A PCPN-FREE WEEKEND AND AN ALMOST "CRISP" FEEL
TO THE AIR SUNDAY MORNING WITH LOWS IN THE MID AND UPPER 50S AND
AROUND 60 AT THE COAST. MAX TEMPS TO RUN BELOW NORMAL WITH SUNDAY
MILDEST.

TIDAL CALCULATIONS INDICATE WE MAY NEED A COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY
MAINLY FOR NUISANCE FLOODING DURING HIGH TIDES OVER THE WEEKEND.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 330 PM FRIDAY...PERSISTENT UPPER TROUGHINESS REMAINS IN PLACE
OVER THE NORTHEASTERN U.S. AND MIDATLANTIC THROUGH THE PERIOD. THIS
WILL ALLOW PIECES OF SHORTWAVE ENERGY TO MOVE THROUGH AT JUST ABOUT
ANY TIME BUT THESE FEATURES WILL BE TOO MOISTURE-DEPRIVED TO YIELD
ANY APPRECIABLE PRECIP CHANCES. THE STRONGEST OF THESE UPPER WAVES
MOVES THROUGH LATE TUESDAY OR TUESDAY NIGHT (OR MONDAY NIGHT
ACCORDING TO ECMWF) AND MAY BE STRONG ENOUGH TO HAVE A SURFACE
REFLECTION ALONG THE WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY IT DRIVES THROUGH THE
CAROLINAS. THIS EVENT WILL BRING THE BEST CHANCE FOR RAIN DURING THE
LONG TERM BUT CHANCES WILL NOT BE VERY HIGH AND THE CONTINUED
RELATIVE DRYNESS WILL MINIMIZE QPF WHERE PRECIP DOES MANAGE TO
OCCUR. TEMPERATURE DEVIATIONS FROM CLIMO WILL TEND TO BE SMALL...A
FEW DEGREES SHY BY DAY FROM WEAK CAA AND LOW HEIGHTS...A FEW DEGREES
ABOVE AT NIGHT DUE TO CLOUD COVER.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 19Z FRIDAY...VFR WILL PREVAIL THROUGH THE EARLY OVERNIGHT
HOURS WITH PERIODS OF MVFR/IFR POSSIBLE LATER TODAY INTO THE
EVENING HOURS IN HEAVIER DOWNPOURS AS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
MOVE ACROSS THE AREA. VFR WILL PREVAIL AGAIN BEGINNING LATER
OVERNIGHT AND THROUGH THE END OF THE VALID PERIOD.

AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT WILL BRING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THIS
AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT...WITH SOME THUNDERSTORMS BEING SEVERE. CANNOT RULE
OUT MVFR/IFR IN HEAVIER DOWNPOURS AND BRIEFLY DEVELOPED FOG. FOR
TIMING...FLO/LBT IN THE MID-LATE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING...AND THE
COASTAL TERMINALS IN THE EVENING. SOUTH WINDS AOB 10-15 KTS WILL
CONTINUE THROUGHOUT THE DAY WITH HIGHER GUSTS...SUBSIDING BEFORE
MIDNIGHT. VFR WILL PREVAIL AS SHRA/TSRA WILL DISSIPATE AND WINDS
WILL BE SOUTHWEST AOB 8 KTS. CANNOT RULE OUT PATCHY FOG SATURDAY
MORNING...BUT GIVEN BOUNDARY LAYER WINDS CONFIDENCE IS LOW TO ACTUAL
DEVELOPMENT OF FOG. AFTER DAYBREAK...VFR WILL CONTINUE WITH NORTH
WINDS AOB 11 KTS.

EXTENDED OUTLOOK...SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS
THROUGH SATURDAY. VFR EXPECTED FRIDAY THROUGH THE END OF THE PERIOD.
&&

.MARINE...
NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 330 PM FRIDAY...WINDS AND SEAS REMAIN ON THE WEAK SIDE AT THIS
HOUR. STILL EXPECT WINDS TO INCREASE TO A RANGE OF 15-20 KNOTS LATER
WITH THE APPROACH/PASSAGE OF THE COLD FRONT. EXPECT THE STRONGEST
WINDS BETWEEN 0300 AND 0600 UTC. WILL MAINTAIN THE SHORT DURATION
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FOR THIS EVENING AND SCEC HEADLINE. BY MORNING
EXPECT A WESTERLY FLOW OF 10-15 KNOTS.

SHORT TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 330 PM FRIDAY...WINDS AND SEAS WILL BE JUST STARTING TO
IMPROVE DAYBREAK SATURDAY...BUT STILL ROUGH...WITH LEFT OVER
SOUTHERLY SWELL ENERGY. THUS AN EXERCISE CAUTION STATEMENT MAY BE
NEEDED EARLY. AS THE WEEKEND PROGRESSES FURTHER IMPROVEMENT IS
EXPECTED. NW WINDS SATURDAY WILL BACK TO W-WSW BY SUNDAY...SPEEDS
GENERALLY 15 KT OR LESS.

LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 330 PM FRIDAY...WESTERLY WINDS EXPECTED THROUGH MOST OF THE
LONG TERM...ALTHOUGH SOME UNCERTAINTY EXISTS REGARDING TIMING OF A
FRONTAL BOUNDARY EXPECTED AROUND THE MID WEEK PERIOD. THIS
BOUNDARY MAY COME AS SOON AS MONDAY NIGHT AND ONLY BRING A SMALL
SHIFT FROM SW TO NW WITH ITS PASSAGE. OTHER SOLUTIONS ARE MUCH
SLOWER...AS LATE AS TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY NIGHT. THIS SOLUTION HAS
A STRONGER WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE THAT MAY INTRODUCE A PRECEDENT
SOUTHERLY WIND AND A STRONGER NW WIND IN ITS WAKE. THE PERSISTENCE
OF THE GFS MODEL SHOWING THIS SOLUTION MAKES IT FAIRLY APPEALING
AND THE FORECAST WILL BE NUDGED TOWARDS IT WITHOUT EMBRACING FULLY
IN CASE THE FASTER AND WEAKER SOLUTION PANS OUT.
