AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
321 PM EDT MON JUL 23 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A SERIES OF UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES WILL CROSS THE MID ATLANTIC
REGION THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT. THESE DISTURBANCES WILL GLANCE CENTRAL
NORTH CAROLINA...CAUSING SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS TO OCCUR.

&&

.NEAR TERM /REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 146 PM MONDAY...

CONVECTIVE TEMP BEING REACHED AT MOST LOCALES AT 17Z...RESULTING IN
EXPANSION OF THE CU FIELD AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF ISOLATED
CONVECTION. LATEST MESO ANALYSIS SUGGEST TWO AREAS FOR FAVORED
CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT IN THE NEAR TERM: FIRST... WEST-TO-EAST LOW
LEVEL TROUGH EXTENDING FROM THE SOUTHERN PIEDMONT INTO THE CENTRAL
COASTAL PLAIN. WHILE AIR MASS IN THIS REGION MODERATELY
UNSTABLE...WEAK BULK SHEAR AND MARGINAL MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES
SHOULD KEEP MOST OF THE CONVECTION BELOW SEVERE LIMITS THOUGH A FEW
CELLS COULD PRODUCE QUITE A BIT OF LIGHTNING. THE SECOND AREA IS
CLOSER TO THE VIRGINIA BORDER WHERE A SEWD MOVING
CONVECTIVELY-INDUCED VORTICITY (SEEN ON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY OVER SW
OH) WILL CROSS THE CENTRAL APPALACHIANS THIS AFTERNOON AND MOVE INTO
THE VA PIEDMONT BY LATE IN THE DAY. THE APPROACH OF THIS MID LEVEL
SYSTEM WILL INCREASE BULK SHEAR ENOUGH TO CAUSE CONVECTION TO
POSSIBLY ORGANIZE INTO BROKEN BANDS...INCREASING THE POSSIBILITY OF
LOCALLY STRONG TO DAMAGING WINDS. ALSO ADEQUATE INSTABILITY SUGGEST
A BETTER PROBABILITY OF SOME HAIL WITH THE STRONGER STORMS ALONG
WITH FREQUENT TO EXCESSIVE LIGHTNING STRIKES. CURRENTLY HAVE SOLID
CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE FAR NORTH FOR THIS AFTERNOON THOUGH A
CONTINUED INCREASE IN CONVECTIVE COVERAGE OVER WESTERN VA SUGGEST A
LIKELY POP MAY BE WARRANTED. FARTHER SOUTH...POPS 30-40 PERCENT
SHOULD COVER THE SITUATION.

BASED ON EXTRAPOLATION...CENTRAL NC SHOULD BE ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE
VORTICITY MAXIMA BY 03Z. THUS...SHOULD SEE MAJORITY OF THE
CONVECTION DISSIPATE PRIOR TO MIDNIGHT THOUGH A FEW RENEGADE SHOWERS
STILL POSSIBLE WELL INTO THE NIGHT. MODEL GUIDANCE SUGGEST THAT THE
LOW LEVEL AIR MASS WILL REMAIN WELL MIXED WITH A STEADY SW SURFACE
WIND 7-8KTS. IF THIS VERIFIES AND SKIES REMAIN PARTLY TO MOSTLY
CLOUDY...MOST PLACES WILL REMAIN IN THE MID-UPPER 70S FOR MOST OF
THE OVERNIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 321 PM MONDAY...

TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT...ANOTHER IN A SERIES OF UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCES WILL APPROACH FROM THE NW IN THE MORNING AND AFFECT
CENTRAL TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND TUESDAY NIGHT. MID LEVEL SHEAR A TAD
BETTER THAN THIS AFTERNOON WHICH SUGGEST BETTER CHANCE FOR
STRONG/DAMAGING WIND GUSTS WITH THE STRONGEST CONVECTION. APPEARS TO
BE ENOUGH AMPLE TIME IN THE MORNING THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON FOR
STRONG INSOLATION TO ACHIEVE SBCAPE VALUES 4000-5000 J/KG AND MLCAPE
2500-3500 J/KG. INSTABILITY ALOFT SUGGEST POTENTIAL FOR DAMAGING
WIND GUSTS AND MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL. IN ADDITION...A FEW OF THE
STORMS COULD PRODUCE A LARGE AMOUNT OF LIGHTNING.

WITH LOW LEVEL THICKNESSES COMPARABLE TO TODAY...EXPECT SIMILAR
TEMPS TUESDAY AFTERNOON IN THE MID 90S...THOUGH COULD BE A TOUCH
"COOLER" IF CLOUDS COME IN SOONER/THICKER IN THE NW PIEDMONT.

CONVECTION WILL SLOWLY DIMINISH TUESDAY EVENING WITH BULK OF
ACTIVITY AFTER MIDNIGHT EXPECTED OVER THE SOUTHERN COUNTIES THOUGH
APPROACH OF ANOTHER DISTURBANCE INT EH NW FLOW MAY SPARK A FEW
SHOWERS IN THE NW PIEDMONT AFTER 2 AM. MIN TEMPS 69-74. -WSS

NORTHWEST MID LEVEL FLOW WILL BE DIRECTED INTO THE AREA ON
WEDNESDAY...WITH PERTURBATIONS IN THE SHEAR AXIS MOVING ACROSS THE
AREA DURING THE DAY. MEANWHILE...WEAK AND COOLER SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS BRIEFLY INTO THE REGION...WITH DRIER NORTHERLY FLOW
EDGING INTO THE NORTHERN TIER. WILL CONTINUE A CHANCE POP GRADUATED
HIGHER SOUTH. LOW LEVEL THICKNESSES SUGGESTS THAT HIGH TEMPS WILL BE
MOSTLY IN THE LOW 90S. DRYING CONTINUES WITH A TRANSITION TO LOW
AMPLITUDE RIDGING WEDNESDAY NIGHT...COULD ARGUE FOR A LINGERING
SLIGHT CHANCE POP ACROSS THE SOUTH AND EAST EARLY WED NIGHT...NOT
ENOUGH CONSISTENCY TO INCLUDE AT THIS POINT. MINS WILL BE
PERSISTENCE...70 TO 75. -MLM

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 100 PM MONDAY...

THE INITIAL EXTENDED FORECAST STARTS OUT THURSDAY WITH A FAMILIAR
PATTERN...SURFACE LEE TROFFING OVER CENTRAL NC AND WESTERLY FLOW
ALOFT. THE RESULTING HIGH INSTABILITY (HIGHS 92-96) BUT LACK OF
FORCING MECHANISMS ARE CONDUCIVE TO WIDELY SCATTERED DIURNAL
CONVECTION...WITH SLIGHT NODS FOR HIGHER POPS IN THE WEST WHERE
DIFFERENTIAL HEATING AND EASTWARD DRIFT OF SUBSEQUENT CONVECTION...
AND SEA BREEZE PENETRATION INTO THE COASTAL PLAIN.

A FRONT SAGGING SOUTH LATER FRIDAY OR FRIDAY NIGHT WILL PROVIDE SOME
ENHANCED LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE W/ENHANCED CONVECTIVE CHANCES AS IT
WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY SHARPENING OF AN UPPER TROF OVER THE EASTERN
CONUS. WILL CONTINUE CHANCE POPS FRIDAY AND SLIGHT CHANCES FRIDAY
NIGHT WITH FROPA CURRENTLY PROGGED FRIDAY NIGHT...WHICH WOULD BE
LEAST FAVORABLE STABILITY-WISE. HIGHS FRIDAY WILL REACH THE LOW TO
MID 90S.

UPPER TROF WILL BE IN PLACE SATURDAY AND MIGRATING SLOWLY EAST
THROUGH MONDAY...WITH ATTENDANT NORTHWEST FLOW. TEMPS WILL BE
SEASONABLE...LOW 90S AFTER MORNING LOWS 70 TO 75. CONVECTION WILL BE
MAINLY DRIVEN BY SMALLER SCALE PERTURBATIONS IN THE MID LEVEL
FLOW...WHICH OF COURSE ARE NOT FORECASTABLE THIS EARLY IN THE GAME.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 100 PM MONDAY...

A MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIR MASS WILL INTERACT WITH AN APPROACHING MID
LEVEL TROUGH TO CAUSE SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS TO OCCUR THIS
AFTERNOON THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS. THE THREAT FOR CONVECTION LOOKS
BEST ACROSS THE NORTH THOUGH CONVECTION IN THE SOUTH CANNOT BE
TOTALLY ELIMINATED. TIMING FAVORS 3 PM TO 9 PM ACROSS THE NORTH AND
5 PM TO 10 PM IN THE SOUTH. EXPECT MVFR/IFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITY
IN VICINITY OF THE HEAVIER SHOWERS AND STORMS. THE STRONGER STORMS
WILL PRODUCE WIND GUSTS 40-50 KTS.

ONCE CONVECTIVE DISSIPATES TONIGHT...EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS. UNLIKE
RECENT NIGHTS...A STEADY SW-W SURFACE WIND WILL OCCUR WITH SPEEDS
5-8KTS. WHERE WINDS BECOME CALM...HOWEVER...POCKETS OF MVFR FOG ARE
POSSIBLE. A LOW LEVEL JET (30-35KTS) CENTERED BETWEEN 2000-3000FT
OVERNIGHT MAY CREATE A WIND PROFILE JUST SHY OF LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR
CRITERIA.

TUESDAY...ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL CAUSE ANOTHER THREAT
OF SCATTERED STRONG CONVECTION LATE IN THE DAY AND WELL INTO THE
EVENING HOURS.  FOR WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...EXPECT A DAILY
THREAT FOR ISOLATED TO SCATTERED CONVECTION IN THE AFTERNOON-EARLY
EVENING HOURS WITH ASSOCIATED MVFR CEILINGS/VISIBILITY. IN
ADDITION...THERE WILL BE POCKETS OF MVFR/IFR FOG AND STRATUS BETWEEN
5 AM AND 9 AM EACH MORNING.

&&

.RAH WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
NONE.
