AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
300 PM EDT WED AUG 8 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA LATE THIS
AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING. WEAK SFC HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER
THE AREA ON THURSDAY BEFORE A STRONG SFC COLD FRONT PUSHES ACROSS
THE AREA FROM THE WEST LATE FRIDAY AND INTO SATURDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 300 PM WEDNESDAY...

TONIGHT:
AS ONE SHORTWAVE EXITS OFFSHORE...ANOTHER WELL DEFINED MID/UPPER
LEVEL SHORTWAVE VORT OVER WVA WILL PROGRESS SLOWLY EASTWARD ACROSS
NC AND VA BETWEEN 18Z TO 06 TONIGHT. STORMS HAVE FIRED QUICKLY ALONG
THE LEADING EDGE OF THE DPVA ASSOCIATED WITH THIS WAVE AND IN THE
STEEP LOW-LEVEL LAPSE RATES AXIS ALIGNED OVER WESTERN NC WHERE
DAYTIME HEATING HAS BEEN ABATED BY THE SLOW EROSION OF LOW CLOUDS TO
THE EAST. MODERATE INSTABILITY ON THE ORDER OF 2000-2500 J/KG HAS
DEVELOPED AND IS EXPANDING EASTWARD AS AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES WARM
UNIFORMLY INTO THE UPPER 80S...FURTHER AIDED BY MODEST MID-LEVEL
LAPSE RATES BETWEEN 6.5-7.0 AS DRIER...AS SLIGHTLY COOLER AIR ALOFT
SPREADS INTO THE AREA FROM THE WEST.

WHILE THE DRIER AIR SHOULD LIMIT COVERAGE...ANY STORM THAT CAN
ACHIEVE A DEEP UPDRAFT WILL ALSO HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE
STRONG TO DAMAGING THUNDERSTORM WINDS...WITH SPC MESOANALYSIS
INDICATING 1000 TO 1200 J/KG OF DCAPE ACROSS WESTERN NC  AND
VIRGINIA. STORMS HAVE EXHIBITED LITTLE EASTWARD MOVEMENT AT THIS
TIME...BUT EXPECT THIS TO CHANGE AS FORCING BEGINS TO PIVOT
EASTWARD. CONFIDENCE IS LOW ON HOW MUCH DOWNSTREAM
DEVELOPMENT/SUSTAINMENT WE WILL SEE...WITH SOME OF THE NEW THE NEW
12Z WRF CAM MODELS NOW SHOWING A CONVECTIVE LINE/CLUSTER MOVING
THROUGH THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA THROUGH 03Z THIS EVENING.

WILL INCREASE POPS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING WITH LIKELY POPS
IN THE WEST TO CHANCE POPS EVERYWHERE ELSE. STORMS SHOULD BE OUT OF
THE AREA BY OR BEFORE 06Z AS SHORTWAVE WAVE SHIFTS EAST OF THE AREA.

ANY DEBRIS CLOUDINESS SHOULD DIMINISH...GIVING WAY TO MOSTLY CLEAR
SKIES OVERNIGHT WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR FOG/STRATUS TO DEVELOP
EARLY THURSDAY MORNING. OVERNIGHT LOWS TONIGHT 69-73.

THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT:
CENTRAL NC WILL LIE BETWEEN SYSTEMS/SHORTWAVE TROUGHS ON THURSDAY...
AS LEAD SHORTWAVE ENERGY CURRENTLY OVER THE UPPER MIDWEST DIGS
SOUTHEAST INTO THE TN VALLEY DURING THE DAY. WITH ONLY AVAILABLE
FORCING IN THE MEANS OF STRONG DAYTIME HEATING...EXPECT NO MORE THAN
ISOLATED POPS THURSDAY AFTERNOON...WITH MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES YIELDING
FULL SUN THICKNESSES IN THE LOWER 90S.

POPS WILL ACTUALLY BE ON THE INCREASE THURSDAY NIGHT/EARLY FRIDAY
MORNING AS THE AFOREMENTIONED LEAD SHORTWAVE TROUGH OVER THE TN
VALLEY ADVANCES EASTWARD...GETTING STRETCHED BY THE ANOMALOUSLY DEEP
CLOSED MID/UPPER LOW SETTLING OVER THE GREAT LAKES/OHIO VALLEY.
RENEWED WARM MOIST AIR ADVECTION WILL SUPPORT AN AREA SHOWERS
OVERSPREADING CENTRAL NC FROM THE WEST/SOUTHWEST. WILL INCREASE POPS
INTO THE CHANCE CATEGORY...ACROSS WESTERN AND CENTRAL PORTIONS OF
THE PIEDMONT TO SLIGHT ACROSS THE FAR NE COASTAL PLAIN. MINS
THURSDAY NIGHT 70 TO 75.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY /...
AS OF 250 PM WEDNESDAY...

FRIDAY:
A SHORTWAVE TROUGH IS EXPECTED TO DIVE SOUTH OUT OF CANADA AND
DEEPEN FROM THE GREAT LAKES TO THE TN VALLEY FRIDAY AND
SATURDAY...BRING THE POTENTIAL FOR A COUPLE ROUNDS OF SEVERE STORMS
THIS WEEKEND.  THE LATEST DAY 3 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK FROM SPC HAS ALL
OF CENTRAL IN A SLIGHT RISK ON FRIDAY.

A LEAD SHORTWAVE...CURRENTLY NEAR THE DAKOTAS WILL SWING SOUTH
TOWARD THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS THURSDAY...WITH MODELS SHOWING THE
REMNANT SHEARED VORT LOBE CROSSING CENTRAL NC MID TO LATE DAY
FRIDAY.  SOME ONGOING WARM ADVECTION SHOWERS/STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE
OVER THE FOOTHILLS AND WESTERN PIEDMONT FRIDAY MORNING...WITH AN
EASTWARD SHIFT IN ACTIVITY DURING THE DAY AS DPVA OVERRUNS A MOIST
AND INCREASINGLY UNSTABLE AIRMASS OVER THE PIEDMONT AND COASTAL
PLAIN.  FORECAST SOUNDINGS SHOW PW VALUES APPROACHING 2 INCHES EAST
OF THE TRIAD WITH CONSIDERABLE CLOUD COVER TO START THE DAY.
THUS...THE DEGREE OF DESTABILIZATION WILL BE SOMEWHAT IN
QUESTION...ALTHOUGH WARM ADVECTION WILL AID IN PUSHING TEMPS INTO
THE UPPER 80S TO LOWER 90S...AND SREF PROBS SUGGEST 1000-2000 J/KG
OF MLCAPE WILL BE ATTAINABLE.  MID LEVEL FLOW WILL BE STEADILY
INCREASING FROM THE WEST AS THE UPPER TROUGH DEEPENS WEST OF THE
MOUNTAINS...AND 0-6KM BULK SHEAR MAY REACH 30 KTS FRIDAY AFTERNOON.
UNIDIRECTIONAL DEEP LAYER FLOW SHOULD FAVOR MAINLY MULTICELL
CLUSTERS AND A DAMAGING WIND THREAT.  HAVE LEFT CHANCE POPS OVER THE
WEST AND TRIMMED BACK POPS IN THE EAST PRIOR TO 18Z....WITH LIKELY
POPS IN THE AFTERNOON.

FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT:
POPS SHOULD TREND DOWNWARD FRIDAY NIGHT....DEPENDING ON HOW QUICKLY
CONVECTION EVOLVES FRIDAY AFTERNOON...AS THE INITIAL FORCING
DEPARTS.   THE COLD FRONT IS FORECAST TO BE WELL WEST OF THE
MOUNTAINS OVERNIGHT AS THE MAIN TROUGH AXIS SWINGS THROUGH THE OH/TN
VALLEYS. SHOWERS AND STORMS MAY BEGIN TO REDEVELOP SATURDAY MORNING
AS THE FRONT AND/OR PREFRONTAL TROUGH EMERGE OVER THE WESTERN
PIEDMONT.  STRONG TO SEVERE CONVECTION IS POSSIBLE AGAIN ON SATURDAY
AS THE FRONTAL FORCING AND STRONGER DEEP LAYER WIND FIELDS CROSS
CENTRAL NC.  ONGOING CONVECTION AND CLOUD COVER MAY LIMIT CAPE
DEVELOPMENT AND COVERAGE OF SEVERE STORMS...BUT OVERALL COVERAGE OF
CONVECTION COULD STILL BE SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS AS PW VALUES HOVER
NEAR W INCHES...ESPECIALLY OVER THE COASTAL PLAIN.

HIGHS SATURDAY ARE TRICKY DEPENDING ON THE TIMING OF THE
FRONT/CONVECTION....BUT A STRONGER THAN NORMAL WEST TO EAST GRADIENT
SHOULD BE EXPECTED...AND THE CURRENT FORECAST WILL SHOW LOW TO MID
80S WEST AND UPPER 80S EAST.

MODELS HAVE SHOWN A SLOWING TREND WITH THE FRONT...AND THE 12Z IS
EVEN A BIT SLOWER THAN ITS PREVIOUS RUN.  THE ECMWF WOULD SUGGEST
THE FRONT WILL MAKE IT ALL THE WAY TO THE COAST...BUT IF IT HANGS UP
NEAR THE EASTERN PIEDMONT AND COASTAL PLAIN LIKE THE GFS
SHOWS...CONVECTION MAY BE POSSIBLE WELL INTO THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD.
LOWS UPPER 60S TO AROUND 70.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 230 PM WEDNESDAY...

THE COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO MOVE TO THE COAST AND EVENTUALLY WASH
OUT AS HIGH PRESSURE BRIEFLY BUILDS ACROSS THE REGION AND RELATIVELY
ZONAL FLOW DEVELOPS ALOFT.  DRIER AIR WITH DEWPOINTS POTENTIALLY IN
THE UPPER 50S TO LOWER 60S IS FORECAST TO FILTER INTO THE AREA
BEHIND THE FRONT ON SUNDAY.  MODELS SHOW A SHORTWAVE CROSSING THE
MIDWEST AND APPALACHIANS LATE MONDAY OR TUESDAY...THOUGH ITS
UNCERTAIN HOW QUICKLY THE POST-FRONTAL AIRMASS WILL RECOVER BY
THEN.  WE WILL KEEP POPS AT SLIGHT CHANCE DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS
THROUGH THE PERIOD...WITH HIGHS RETURNING TO AROUND NORMAL BY
MIDWEEK.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 150 PM WEDNESDAY...

SLOW WEST TO EAST EROSION OF LOW CLOUDS STILL HAS KRWI AND KFAY
HANGING ON TO SOME MVFR CEILINGS FOR THE MOMENT...BUT EXPECT
CEILINGS TO IMPROVE TO VFR VERY SOON.

THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EARLY
EVENING...AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL PROGRESS EAST THROUGH
CENTRAL NC THROUGH 06Z TONIGHT...PROVIDING AMPLE LIFT TO SUPPORT
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS. IN FACT...SOME OF THE NEWER MODEL
GUIDANCE FILTERING IN SUGGESTS CONVECTION COULD BE MORE WIDESPREAD
AND COULD POSSIBLY IMPACT ALL TAF SITES BETWEEN 18Z IN THE WEST...TO
AROUND 03Z ACROSS THE EAST/SOUTHEAST. FOR NOW WILL INCLUDE THUNDER
AT KINT AND KGSO ONLY...AND WILL MONITOR LATEST RADAR TRENDS BEFORE
ADDING THE MENTION OF THUNDER AND ASSOCIATED SUB-VFR CONDITIONS TO
ANY OTHER TAF SITES.

DEBRIS CLOUDINESS SHOULD CLEAR/SCATTER OUT BY MIDNIGHT...GIVING WAY
TO MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES. WITH LIGHT SOUTHERLY WINDS AND CONTINUED
HIGH DEWPOINTS IN THE LOWER 70S...THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME
FOG/STRATUS...ESPECIALLY IN THE EAST WHERE NEAR SURFACE MOISTURE
IS HIGHER.

ANY STRATUS/FOG SHOULD LIFT VERY QUICKLY THURSDAY MORNING(BY 13-14Z)
WITH PREDOMINATELY VFR CONDITIONS AND ONLY ISOLATED SHOWER/STORMS
POSSIBLE. A STRONGER MID LEVEL TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED SURFACE
BOUNDARY WILL BRING INCREASING CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND T-STORMS
LATE THURSDAY NIGHT/FRIDAY MORNING...CONTINUING  FRIDAY AFTERNOON
INTO FRIDAY NIGHT AND POSSIBLY LINGER INTO THE COASTAL PLAIN THROUGH
SATURDAY MORNING. A TRANSITION TO A MORE TRANQUIL WEATHER PATTERN
ANTICIPATED FOR SUNDAY.

&&

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