AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
315 PM EDT WED JUL 4 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE EXTENDING EASTWARD FROM THE CENTRAL PLAINS
TOWARD THE CAROLINAS WILL RESULT IN ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES
THROUGH THE UPCOMING WEEKEND...WITH A CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
AS OF 100 PM WEDNESDAY...

OVERVIEW:
NW FLOW ALOFT WILL BE IN PLACE OVER THE CAROLINAS TODAY... ON THE
EASTERN PERIPHERY OF AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE CENTERED OVER THE CENTRAL
MS RIVER VALLEY. 15Z WV IMAGERY...SPC MESOANALYSIS AND THE LATEST
RAP MODEL DATA INDICATED A SHORTWAVE UPSTREAM OF THE AREA OVER
KY/WV/VA.

TEMPERATURES:
THE FORECAST TODAY WILL HIGHLY DEPEND ON THE EVOLUTION OF CONVECTION
THIS AFT/EVE. W/REGARD TO HIGHS...1000-850 MB THICKNESSES ARE
PROGGED AT 1435-1440 METERS ACROSS THE AREA BY 00Z THIS EVENING...
WITH H85 TEMPS IN VICINITY OF ~20C. AS LONG AS CONVECTION OCCURS
NEAR OR AFTER PEAK HEATING...EXPECT HIGHS IN THE MID/UPPER
90S...SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY. EXPECT LOWS TONIGHT SIMILAR TO THIS
MORNING...IN THE LOWER 70S...OR 71-74F.

PRECIPITATION CHANCES:
W/REGARD TO THERMODYNAMICS...MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES ARE ON THE ORDER
OF 5.5-6 C/KM TODAY...SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY AND SUBSTANTIALLY WEAKER
THAN EARLIER THIS WEEK /LAST WEEKEND/ WHEN AN 'UNREGIONALLY' STRONG
ELEVATED MIXED LAYER WAS PRESENT. WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE MID/UPPER
90S AND DEWPOINTS EXPECTED TO RANGE FROM THE MID 60S IN THE WEST/NW
PIEDMONT (WESTERN PERIPHERY OF LEE TROUGH) TO NEAR 70F IN THE
SANDHILLS/COASTAL PLAIN (EASTERN PERIPHERY OF LEE
TROUGH)...ANTICIPATE SEASONABLE MLCAPE VALUES AROUND 1500-2000 J/KG
DURING PEAK HEATING...PERHAPS UP TO 2500 J/KG OVER PORTIONS OF THE
COASTAL PLAIN. W/REGARD TO FORCING... A LEE SURFACE TROUGH WILL BE
PRESENT OVER CENTRAL NC...IN VICINITY OF THE HWY 1 CORRIDOR. IN THE
UPPER LEVELS...THE AFOREMENTIONED SHORTWAVE ENERGY UPSTREAM IN
KY/WV/VA AT 15Z IS PROGGED TO PROGRESS SLOWLY SOUTHWARD THROUGH
CENTRAL NC BETWEEN 21Z THIS AFTERNOON AND 03Z TONIGHT. THE LATEST
HIGH-RES CONVECTION ALLOWING MODELS SUGGEST A POTENTIAL FOR ISOLD
CONVECTION BETWEEN 18-21Z IN VICINITY OF THE LEE TROUGH...WITH THE
BEST COVERAGE GENERALLY BETWEEN 21Z THIS AFTERNOON AND 03Z TONIGHT.
GIVEN SEASONABLE INSTABILITY...A LEE SURFACE TROUGH AS A LOW-LEVEL
FOCUS...SHORTWAVE ENERGY PROGRESSING SOUTHWARD INTO THE AREA
AROUND/SHORTLY AFTER PEAK HEATING...AND HIGH-RES CONVECTION ALLOWING
MODELS INDICATING AT LEAST SCATTERED CONVECTION...HAVE UPPED PRECIP
CHANCES TO 40% EVERYWHERE THIS AFT/EVE. WILL INDICATE PRECIP CHANCES
DECREASING BY MIDNIGHT AS THE AFOREMENTIONED SHORTWAVE PROGRESSES
SLOWLY SOUTHWARD TOWARD SC AND IN ANTICIPATION OF CONVECTIVE
OVERTURNING/STABILIZATION. ISOLATED CONVECTION CANNOT BE RULED OUT
AFTER MIDNIGHT DEPENDING ON COVERAGE LATER THIS AFT/EVE AND WHETHER
OR NOT ADDITIONAL DISTURBANCES PROGRESS INTO THE AREA VIA NW FLOW
ALOFT...AND WILL KEEP A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS/STORMS IN THE
FORECAST EVERYWHERE THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE NIGHT.

SEVERE WEATHER THREAT:
16Z SPC MESOANALYSIS INDICATED MLCAPE VALUES RANGING FROM 1500-2500
J/KG...WITH LITTLE TO NO CIN. DIURNAL CU HAS JUST BEGUN TO DEVELOP
IN VICINITY OF THE LEE TROUGH OVER MOORE/LEE/CHATHAM COUNTIES AS OF
1645Z. ALTHOUGH ISOLD CONVECTION WILL BE POSSIBLE IN VICINITY OF THE
LEE TROUGH BETWEEN 18-21Z...EXPECT THE BEST CHANCE FOR CONVECTION IN
THE 21-03Z TIME FRAME AS SHORTWAVE ENERGY APPROACHES FROM THE NORTH.
0-6 KM SHEAR VALUES ARE PROGGED TO RANGE FROM 15-25 KT...SUPPORTIVE
OF MULTICELL ORGANIZATION AT BEST. HOWEVER...GIVEN A POTENTIAL FOR
STRONG COLD POOLS IN ASSOC/W HIGH DCAPE (1000-1500 J/KG) AND
RELATIVELY LARGE (~30F) SURFACE T/TD SPREADS...ISOLD TO SCT
CONVECTION COULD ORGANIZE ALONG OUTFLOW AND BECOME MORE
WIDESPREAD...ESPECIALLY IF COVERAGE IS MINIMAL PRIOR TO MAX HEATING
(~21Z) AND A RELATIVELY UNTOUCHED AIRMASS IS IN PLACE WHEN THE
BETTER UPPER LEVEL FORCING WILL BEGIN TO ARRIVE FROM THE NORTH. WITH
THE ABOVE IN MIND...EXPECT A POTENTIAL FOR ISOLD SEVERE STORMS WITH
A PRIMARY THREAT OF DAMAGING WINDS. THE THREAT APPEARS GREATEST
BETWEEN 4 PM THIS AFTERNOON AND MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. -VINCENT

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 220 PM WEDNESDAY...

CENTRAL NC REMAINS ON THE EASTERN PERIPHERY OF A SLOWLY BUILDING
MISSOURI ALLEY RIDGE ON THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT. FLOW AT LOW AND
MID LEVELS IS FROM THE NORTHWEST SUPPORTS THE MAINTENANCE OF A LEE
TROUGH ACROSS THE PIEDMONT OF THE CAROLINAS AND VIRGINIA. LARGE
SCALE FORCING FOR ASCENT IS GENERALLY LACKING BUT BOTH THE NAM AND
GFS INDICATE A SUBTLE WAVE IN THE NW FLOW MOST COHERENT AT 850/700
MB AS WELL AS ALOFT ON THE 1.5 PV SURFACE. IN ADDITION...LOW LEVEL
FORCING ASSOCIATED WITH THE LEE TROUGH AND PERHAPS DIFFERENTIAL
HEATING IN THE MOUNTAINS AND THE SEABREEZE WILL BE SUFFICIENT FOR
WIDELY SCATTERED CONVECTION. UPSTREAM CONDITIONS APPEAR FAVORABLE
FOR MCS DEVELOPMENT IN THE OHIO VALLEY WITH THAT CONVECTION LIKELY
TO SPILL SOUTHEAST AND POTENTIAL MOVING INTO THE NW PIEDMONT AFTER
MIDNIGHT ON THURSDAY NIGHT.

THICKNESS VALUES ON THURSDAY CLIMB TO BETWEEN 1440-1450M WITH 850 MB
TEMPS AROUND 22-23 DEG C. WITH SUFFICIENT INSOLATION...HIGH
TEMPERATURES SHOULD CLIMB INTO THE 98-101 RANGE. WITH DEWPOINTS
HOLDING IN THE UPPER 60S/LOWER 70S EAST OF THE LEE TROUGH...HEAT
INDEX VALUES WILL PEAK AT AROUND 105 DEGREES...PLAN ON ISSUING A
HEAT ADVISORY FOR THE COASTAL PLAIN AND SANDHILLS FOR THURSDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. LOWS THURSDAY NIGHT SHOULD RANGE IN THE MID
70S. -BLAES

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 310 PM WEDNESDAY...

NEAR RECORD HIGHS AND HEAT INDEX VALUES WELL OVER 100 FRIDAY THROUGH
SUNDAY WILL GIVE WAY TO COOLER AND WETTER WEATHER DURING THE
BEGINNING OF THE WORK WEEK.

THE UPPER AIR PATTERN DURING THE FIRST HALF OF THE EXTENDED RANGE
FEATURES A LARGE RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT CENTERED ACROSS THE
MISSOURI VALLEY ON FRIDAY AND SATURDAY THAT PERSISTS INTO SUNDAY
WITH A MODEST SURFACE TROUGH ACROSS NC AND VA. THE AIR MASS DURING
THIS PERIOD WILL BE HOT BUT NOT NEARLY AS HOT AS THE PERIOD LAST
WEEK.  AFTERNOON THICKNESS VALUES CLIMB INTO THE 1440-1450M RANGE
WITH 850 MB TEMPS RANGING BETWEEN 22-24 DEG C DURING THE PERIOD. THE
WARMEST AIR MASS WILL EXTEND ACROSS VA INTO WV/NW NC INTO THE OHIO
VALLEY. HIGH TEMPS WILL RANGE BETWEEN 96-101 ALL THREE DAYS WITH
SATURDAY LIKELY THE HOTTEST DAY AND SUNDAY THE COOLEST. WITH
DEWPOINTS THAT RANGE IN THE UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S DURING THE
AFTERNOON HOURS ON ALL THREE DAYS...HEAT INDEX VALUES WILL APPROACH
OR SLIGHTLY EXCEED 105 FOR A FEW HOURS EACH DAY...MAINLY ACROSS THE
COASTAL PLAIN...SANDHILLS AND THE EASTERN PIEDMONT.

DO NOT EXPECT MUCH WIDESPREAD CONVECTION DURING THE PERIOD BUT EACH
DAY WILL FEATURE THE THREAT OF ISOLATED CONVECTION. THE GREATEST
CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE PERIOD WILL BE ON FRIDAY WHEN A
WEAK SHORTWAVE DROPS SOUTH ACROSS THE MID ATLANTIC...THE GFS/ECMWF
SUGGEST A STRONGER FEATURE THAN THE NAM. THE ENVIRONMENT ACROSS
CENTRAL NC ON FRIDAY FEATURES STEEP LOW AND FAIRLY STEEP MID LAYER
LAPSE RATES ALONG WITH A MODEST WIND FIELD AND VERY LITTLE SHEAR.
UPPER HEIGHTS BEGIN TO DROP ON SUNDAY AND THE UPPER FLOW BECOMES
MORE NORTHWESTERLY SUGGESTING SOME MCS ACTIVITY IN THE OH VALLEY
HAVE A BETTER CHANCE TO IMPACT MAINLY THE NORTHERN LOCATIONS SUNDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

THE RIDGE AXIS ACROSS THE MID ATLANTIC RETREATS ON MONDAY AS
TROUGHING DEVELOPS ACROSS THE NORTHEAST AND THE CENTER OF THE RIDGE
RETROGRADES INTO THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS. A COLD FRONT DROPS INTO VA
AND NC ON MONDAY AND DROPS INTO THE CAROLINAS ON TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY. THIS FEATURE SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT TO INITIATE AT LEAST
SCATTERED CONVECTION AND THIS NECESSITATES POPS IN THE 30-50
PERCENT RANGE. A COOLER AIRMASS SHOULD TRICKLE INTO THE REGION
WITH TEMPERATURES DROPPING TO NEAR NORMAL. HIGHS ON TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY WILL RANGE IN THE UPPER 80S TO LOWER 90S. -BLAES
&&

.AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... AS OF 145 PM
WEDNESDAY...

24-HR TAF PERIOD:
OUTSIDE OF ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS LATER
THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS AND LIGHT WINDS
TO PREVAIL. THE BEST CHANCE FOR SHOWERS/STORMS IS EXPECTED TO BE
BETWEEN 21Z THIS AFTERNOON AND 03Z TONIGHT AS AN UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCE PROGRESSES INTO CENTRAL NC FROM THE NORTH. ANY STORMS
THAT DEVELOP WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING SURFACE WIND GUSTS AS HIGH
AS 35-50 KNOTS. IT IS DIFFICULT TO ANTICIPATE THE EXACT EVOLUTION OF
CONVECTION (AND WHETHER OR NOT INDIVIDUAL TERMINALS WILL BE
AFFECTED) THIS AFT/EVE...AND HAVE OPTED TO ACCOUNT FOR IT BY
INCLUDING A TEMPO GROUP DURING THE MOST LIKELY 4-HR PERIOD FOR
CONVECTION TO DEVELOP (AS OUTLINE IN NEAR TERM SECTION OF AFD).
ISOLATED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE DURING THE
OVERNIGHT PERIOD (AFTER MIDNIGHT)...THOUGH PROBABILITIES ARE LOWER
THAN THIS AFT/EVE.

LOOKING AHEAD:
ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES WITH PRIMARILY AFTERNOON/EVENING CHANCES
FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF
THE WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND IN ASSOCIATION WITH N/NW FLOW ALOFT ON THE
EASTERN PERIPHERY OF AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OVER THE CENTRAL CONUS.
OTHERWISE...ANTICIPATE VFR CONDITIONS TO PREDOMINATE. -VINCENT
