AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
306 PM EDT MON JUL 9 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT STRETCHING EAST TO WEST ACROSS VIRGINIA WILL DRIFT
SLOWLY SOUTH TOWARD NORTH CAROLINA. THE FRONT WILL THEN STALL AND
LINGER OVER THE REGION THROUGH MUCH OF THE WORK WEEK... BRINGING
UNSETTLED WEATHER.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 235 PM...

MODELS CONTINUE TO STRUGGLE WITH THE WEAK TROUGH OVER NORTH
CAROLINA... ITS LOCATION AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF ANY MINOR MESO LOWS.
DO NOT EXPECT TOO MUCH MOVEMENT OF THE TROUGH AND WILL BASE THE
FORECAST LOOSELY ON A MEAN TROUGH POSITION FROM CHARLOTTE NORTHEAST
TO ROCKY MOUNT DURING THIS FORECAST PERIOD.

STILL EXPECTING CONVECTION TO INCREASE OVER CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA
AS THE DAY TURNS TO EVENING WITH BEST COVERAGE NEAR AND SOUTH OF THE
ABOVE MENTIONED TROUGH. WITH PRECIPITABLE WATERS ON THE INCREASE TO
NEAR TWO INCHES BY TUESDAY... BUT LITTLE UPPER LEVEL DYNAMICS...
EXPECT THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE TO MAXIMIZE LATE AFTERNOON AND SLOWLY
WANE TO ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCATTERED AS MIDNIGHT APPROACHES. IF
CONVECTION INDEED ENDS LATE TONIGHT... EXPECT AN EARLIER START TO
CONVECTION WITH A NEARLY SATURATED AIR MASS. LIKELY POPS BY LATE
TUESDAY MORNING... THOUGH HIGHER NEAR AND SOUTH OF THE TROUGH.

SEVERE THREAT TODAY AND EARLY TONIGHT CONTINUES WITH HIGH DOWNDRAFT
CAPE AND SURFACE DEWPOINT DEPRESSIONS IN MANY LOCATIONS EXCEEDING 25
DEGREES. SEVERE THREAT MUCH REDUCED FOR TUESDAY WITH MORE CLOUDS...
LOWER TEMPERATURES... AND MUCH LOWER CAPE.

LOW TEMPERATURES EXPECTED TO DIP A BIT FROM THE PAST COUPLE OF
NIGHTS AS THE SURFACE TROUGH FILLS SLIGHTLY... LOWERING 1000 TO 850
MILLIBAR THICKNESSES. CLOUDS AND MOISTURE WILL COMPENSATE FOR THIS
SOMEWHAT... WITH MOST LOW TEMPERATURES IN THE MID 70S. AFTERNOON
HIGH TEMPERATURES UNDER MOSTLY CLOUDY TO CLOUDY SKIES WILL STRUGGLE
TO REACH 85 TO 90 DEGREES.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 305 PM MONDAY...

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE NAM AND THE GFS EXIST DURING THIS PERIOD...
PRIMARILY IN TERMS OF HOW FAR SOUTH THE SURFACE AND 850MB FRONTS ARE
ABLE TO PROGRESS. THE NAM IS FARTHER SOUTH...WITH THE 850MB FRONT
GETTING AT LEAST AS FAR SOUTH AS THE SOUTH CAROLINA BORDER...AND
DRIER AIR BEING ABLE TO FILTER INTO AT LEAST THE NORTHEAST PIEDMONT
AND ESPECIALLY THE NORTHERN COASTAL PLAIN OVER TIME. ON THE OTHER
HAND...THE GFS KEEPS THE 850MB FRONT BASICALLY ONLY AS FAR SOUTH AS
ABOUT U.S. 64...WITH A MUCH MORE MOIST AIR MASS OVER MUCH OF CENTRAL
NORTH CAROLINA. THE FRONT HAS MADE ONLY SLOW PROGRESS SO FAR...AND
FOR THIS FORECAST WILL LEAN TOWARD THE SLOWER GFS DUE TO THE LATEST
TRENDS AND SEASONAL EXPECTATIONS. THROUGHOUT THIS PERIOD...FOLLOWING
THE GFS...THE 850MB FRONT IS FAIRLY STATIONARY OVER AREAS ALONG AND
NORTH OF U.S. 64...WITH WEAK 850MB WAVES MOVING EAST-NORTHEAST ALONG
THE BOUNDARY. GFS BUFR SOUNDINGS ARE MOIST...WITH GENERALLY SLENDER
CAPE...AND LIFT WILL BE AIDED BY CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA BEING ON THE
FAR SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF THE RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF A 70KT 250MB
JET...AND MODEST SHORTWAVES MOVING THROUGH IN THE FLOW ALOFT NOTED
PARTICULARLY ON THE 1.5PVU SURFACE. DOWNDRAFT CAPE IS FAIRLY LOW...
NOT MUCH MORE THAN 100 OR 200J/KG AS FORECAST BY THE GFS...BUT -10C
TO -30C CAPE AT TIMES REACHES AS HIGH AS 500J/KG OR SO. WHILE
ISOLATED STRONG OR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE...THE PRIMARY
FORECAST CONCERN SHOULD BE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL AND LIGHTNING.
EVEN TAKING A BLEND OF THE GFS PRECIPITABLE WATER OVER TWO INCHES...
AND THE NAM FORECAST MUCH LOWER...AROUND 1.5 INCHES OR 1.75 INCHES...
AN AVERAGE PRECIPITABLE WATER BETWEEN 1.75 AND TWO INCHES WOULD BE
SUFFICIENT FOR LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN.

DURING THE PERIOD...FORECAST THE HIGHEST CHANCES FOR RAIN ALONG THE
850MB FRONT...STILL LIKELY OVER THE SANDHILLS AND SOUTHERN COASTAL
PLAIN...BUT WITH LESSER RAW PROBABILITIES COMPARED TO FARTHER NORTH.
THE HIGHEST 850MB THETA-E VALUES AS FORECAST BY THE GFS ARE ALSO
ALONG THE 850MB BOUNDARY...STILL RELATIVELY HIGH FARTHER SOUTH...BUT
HIGHEST APPROACHING THE VIRGINIA BORDER. TOTAL RAINFALL AMOUNTS FROM
TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY COULD APPROACH OR SLIGHTLY EXCEED A
COUPLE OF INCHES ALONG THE 850MB BOUNDARY...WITH LOCALLY HIGHER
AMOUNTS DEPENDING ON MESOSCALE INFLUENCES. IN TERMS OF
TEMPERATURES...BASED ON EXPECTED CLOUDS IN THE FRONTAL ZONE...
TENDED TO FORECAST MINIMUM VALUES NEAR THE HIGHEST GUIDANCE...AND
MAXIMUM VALUES NEARER THE COOLER GUIDANCE. BIAS-CORRECTED
INFORMATION FROM GUIDANCE HAD A GOOD APPROACH IT SEEMS AND LEANED
TOWARD THAT GUIDANCE FOR BOTH HIGHS AND LOWS.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 305 PM MONDAY...

DURING THIS PERIOD...CONSENSUS OF THE LONG-TERM GUIDANCE SUGGESTS
UPPER RIDGING WILL GRADUALLY BUILD WEST FROM THE ATLANTIC ACROSS THE
CAROLINAS. LOWER HEIGHTS...AND DECENT MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY...
TRANSITION TO AN AIR MASS WITH GREATER HEIGHTS AND DIMINISHING
MOISTURE IN THE ENTIRE ATMOSPHERIC COLUMN. COARSE MODEL SOUNDINGS
OVER TIME SUGGEST DRIER CONDITIONS PARTICULARLY IN THE MID AND UPPER
LEVELS FROM THE WEEKEND THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK...ALONG WITH A
MODEST REDUCTION IN 850MB THETA-E ESPECIALLY OVER MUCH OF THE
PIEDMONT AND COASTAL PLAIN. IN ADDITION...DAY TO DAY...OVERALL 0-6KM
SHEAR DIMINISHES TO CURRENTLY FORECAST VALUES IN SINGLE DIGITS KNOTS
BY LATE SUNDAY INTO MONDAY...MAKING STORM ORGANIZATION INCREASINGLY
DIFFICULT OVER TIME.

THE PREVIOUS FORECAST SUGGESTED THE HIGHEST CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS EARLY IN THIS LONG-TERM PERIOD...WITH GRADUALLY
LOWERING CHANCES OVER TIME. THIS FORECAST CONTINUES THAT TREND...
WITH THE HIGHER CHANCES DEFINITELY THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY...
WHEN HEIGHTS ALOFT ARE LOWEST...MOISTURE APPEARS GREATEST...AND LIFT
IS BEST WITH THE REMNANT FRONT OVERHEAD. FOR SATURDAY THROUGH
MONDAY...AND PARTICULARLY SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY...FOR THIS FORECAST
TRENDED LOWER WITH THE CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...AND
IF THE ECMWF VERIFIES IT WILL BE DIFFICULT TO GET MUCH DEEP
CONVECTION AT ALL GIVEN THE STABILITY AND MID-LEVEL DRY AIR THAT
MODEL FORECASTS. GFSX MOS GUIDANCE...HOWEVER...IS ABOVE CLIMATOLOGY
EACH DAY IN TERMS OF CHANCES OF PRECIPITATION...AND AS A RESULT AM
RELUCTANT TO MAKE A STARK CHANGE FROM SOLID CHANCES OF PRECIPITATION
TO DRY CONDITIONS. OVERALL...FROM THE END OF THE WEEK THROUGH THE
WEEKEND...IT IS CURRENTLY EXPECTED THAT THE CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL DIMINISH DAY TO DAY...AND EACH DAY THE RELATIVELY
HIGHER CHANCES COMPARED TO THE REST OF CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA WILL
LIE OVER THE WESTERN PIEDMONT AS THE HIGH ALOFT BUILDS IN FROM THE
EAST AND OVERALL MOISTURE TENDS TO BE HIGHER WEST.

AS THE HIGH BUILDS ALOFT...AND THE POTENTIAL FOR MORE HOURS OF SUN
INCREASES...TEMPERATURES SHOULD GRADUALLY START TO WARM. BY SUNDAY...
1000-850MB THICKNESSES...ALONG WITH GUIDANCE TEMPERATURES...FORECAST
HIGHS THROUGHOUT MUCH OF CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA BACK AT LEAST INTO
THE LOWER 90S...AND MID 90S COULD RETURN TO SEVERAL LOCATIONS IN THE
PIEDMONT FOR MONDAY. BY MONDAY...MAXIMUM APPARENT TEMPERATURES COULD
RISE BACK TO NEAR 100 PARTICULARLY IN AND AROUND U.S. 1 AND
INTERSTATE 95. EARLIER...80S SHOULD BE THE RULE FOR FRIDAY AND
SATURDAY...WITH A FEW LOCATIONS APPROACHING 90 SATURDAY MAINLY OVER
THE SANDHILLS...UNDER MORE CLOUDS AND A BETTER THREAT OF
PRECIPITATION.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 140 PM...

SHOWERS DEVELOPING SOUTH AND WEST OF HIGHWAYS 64 AND ONE. EXPECT
THUNDERSTORMS AS THE AFTERNOON PROGRESSES AND COVERAGE TO INCREASE
AND SPREAD OVER MOST OF CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA BY LATE AFTERNOON.
IFR VISIBILITIES IN SHOWERS. STORMS WILL DECREASE IN THE LATE
EVENING AND BECOME SCATTERED TO ISOLATED AS MIDNIGHT APPROACHES.
SOME FOG AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT... ESPECIALLY WHERE SIGNIFICANT
RAIN FALLS THIS AFTERNOON. SHOWERS OR THUNDERSTORMS ALMOST ANYTIME
AFTER SUNRISE TUESDAY... ESPECIALLY NEAR AND SOUTH OF HIGHWAY 64.

THERE WILL BE A CHANCE FOR SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS... PRIMARILY IN THE AFTERNOON THROUGH EARLY EVENING
INTO THURSDAY NIGHT... WITH CONVECTION DECREASING IN COVERAGE FOR
FRIDAY AND SATURDAY AND MORE LIKELY TO BE CONFINED TO THE
AFTERNOONS AND EVENINGS. THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE FOR MVFR CEILINGS
AND VISIBILITIES LATE NIGHT TO JUST AFTER SUNRISE EACH NIGHT.
