1245 AM EST THU NOV 8 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
STRONG LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE FROM THE OFF THE MID ATLANTIC TO OFF
OF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST TONIGHT AND THURSDAY PRODUCING A CHILLY
AND SOMEWHAT MOIST NORTHWEST FLOW ACROSS EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE REGION FRIDAY INTO THE WEEKEND. THE
HIGH WILL SHIFT OFFSHORE WITH ANOTHER COLD FRONT APPROACHING ON
TUESDAY AND MOVING OFFSHORE BY WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...

CAROLINA THIS EVENING WITH 850 MB TEMPS -1C AND 500 TEMPS -26C!
STRONG LOW PRESSURE CONTINUES OFF THE MID ATLANTIC COAST THIS
EVENING AND WILL MOVE NORTH OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST THURSDAY. THE
LOW CONTINUES TO CIRCULATE A NORTHWEST FLOW OF COLD AND SOMEWHAT
MOIST AIR ACROSS EASTERN NC TONIGHT. AREA RADARS ARE CURRENTLY
INDICATING SPOTTY LIGHT PRECIPITATION RETURNS MOVING SOUTHEAST
ACROSS THE REGION ASSOCIATED WITH THE WRAP AROUND MOISTURE AND THE
UPPER LOW OVER THE REGION. MOST OF THIS PRECIPITATION WAS FAILING TO
REACH THE GROUND AND CLOUDS ARE BEGINNING TO BREAK APART A SIGN THAT
SUBSIDENCE WAS OCCURRING DESPITE DEEP CYCLONIC FLOW. WILL CONTINUE
TO ADVERTISE CONSIDERABLE CLOUDS EVEN WITH LARGE BREAKS AS CLOUDS
OVER VIRGINIA WILL BE ROTATING SOUTH INTO NORTH CAROLINA OVERNIGHT.
WILL CONTINUE TO TAPER OFF PRECIPITATION AFTER 03Z AND ESPECIALLY
AFTER 06Z AS DEEPER DRY AIR MOVES INTO THE REGION. THERE IS SOME
CONCERN FOR FREEZING TEMPERATURES INLAND IF SKIES REMAIN CLEAR FOR A
SUFFICENT TIME AS WINDS HAVE DECOUPLED AWAY FROM THE COAST. WILL
CONTINUE TO MONITOR BUT BEST POTENTIAL FOR THIS IS OVER AREAS THAT
ALREADY HAVE HAD A HARD FREEZE. LOW TEMPERATURES WILL RANGE FROM THE
MID 30S (ISOLATED LOWER 30S) INLAND TO THE LOWER 40S BEACHES.

&&

DRY ATMOSPHERE WITH PWATS NEAR 0.40 INCHES FRI AND SAT...ROUGHLY
BELOW THE 25TH PERCENTILE FOR EARLY NOVEMBER...SO EXPECT MOSTLY
SUNNY SKIES WITH EXCELLENT INSOLATION BOTH DAYS. MAX TEMPS WILL BE
IN THE LOW 60S FRI AND WARM TO THE MID/UPPER 60S ON SAT.

RIDGE WILL CREST OVER THE REGION SAT AFTERNOON THEN PUSH OFF THE
COAST SUN INTO MON. RIDGE AXIS WILL EXTEND SW TO NE OFF THE COAST
WHICH WILL PRODUCE E/SE WINDS ACROSS THE REGION SUN/MON. TEMPS WILL
RANGE SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL SUN/MON IN THE LOWER 70S ACROSS SW
PORTIONS TO UPPER 60S FOR NE ZONES. AN UPPER TROUGH WILL DIG SOUTH
ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS STATES MON AND PROGRESS EASTWARD
TOWARDS THE REGION TUES INTO WED. AN ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL
PUSH EAST ACROSS EASTERN NC TUES INTO EARLY WED...ALTHOUGH SOME
MINOR TIMING DIFFERENCES STILL EXIST BETWEEN THE EXTENDED
GUIDANCE. ADJUSTED POPS/WX TO REFLECT LATEST TRENDS IN ECMWF/GFS
SCENARIO TUES/WED. WEAK INSTABILITY MAY BUILD ACROSS SOUTHERN
ZONES AHEAD OF THE FRONT WHICH MAY WARRANT MENTION OF THUNDER
BUT GIVEN UNCERTAINTY KEPT OUT MENTION OF THUNDER FOR NOW.
