AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
156 PM EDT SAT AUG 11 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL OVER THE TN VALLEY THIS MORNING WILL
MOVING SLOWLY EASTWARD ACROSS THE MIDDLE ATLANTIC REGION LATE THIS
AFTERNOON INTO SUNDAY. WEAK HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN FROM THE
WEST LATE SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 1030 AM SATURDAY...

OVERVIEW:
CLOSED UPPER LOW OVER THE GREAT LAKES WILL LIFT NORTHEAST INTO
QUEBEC TONIGHT. ATTENDANT UPPER TROUGH AND SURFACE COLD FRONT WILL
REMAIN STALLED OVER WESTERN NC...THEN PROGRESS EASTWARD ACROSS THE
CAROLINAS LATE TONIGHT/EARLY SUNDAY.

PRECIP CHANCES:

VERY CHALLENGING PRECIP/CONVECTIVE FORECAST FOR THIS AFTERNOON AND
THIS EVENING.

WHILE CENTRAL NC IS IN A MINIMUM AT THE MOMENT...SEVERAL KEY
ELEMENTS/INGREDIENTS ARE EXPECTED TO COME TOGETHER THIS AFTERNOON
AND EVENING TO BRING AN ACTIVE/WET PERIOD. AT 10 AM...THE SURFACE
COLD FRONT WAS IDLY RESTING OVER THE FOOTHILLS OF THE CAROLINAS AND
VIRGINIA. IN THE BROAD SWLY FLOW EAST OF THE UPPER TROUGH...
DEEP MOISTURE FEATURING PWS OF 1.75-2.0" EXTENDED SW TO NE ALONG THE
ENTIRE ATLANTIC SEABOARD. WV IMAGERY SHOWED A COUPLE OF WEAK S/W
TROUGHS UPSTREAM ACROSS GA/SC EMBEDDED WITHIN THE DEEP MOIST SWLY
FLOW ALOFT. THESE MINOR DISTURBANCES LIFTING NORTHEAST INTO THE
AREA WILL DRIVE RAIN CHANCES THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE
MORNING/EARLY AFTERNOON HOURS...UNTIL THE LARGE SCALE ASCENT WILL
FINALLY BEGIN TO INCREASE ACROSS THE AREA BETWEEN 21Z TO 06Z TONIGHT
WITH THE ARRIVAL OF THE MID/UPPER TROUGH DYNAMICS...INCREASING UPPER
JET DIVERGENCE ATTENDANT TO A 70-75KT JETSTREAK...AND ALONG THE SLOW
EASTWARD MOVING LOW-LEVEL FRONTAL CONVERGENCE ZONE.

THE CHALLENGING ASPECT TO ALL THIS AND WHAT MAY EVENTUALLY
BE THE TELL-TELL SIGN IN DETERMINING THE AREAL COVERAGE/RAINFALL
AMOUNTS AND STRENGTH/SEVERITY  OF THE STORMS...WILL BE HOW MUCH
INSOLATION WE WILL SEE IN THE MOISTURE-LADEN-EXTENSIVE CLOUD
COVER BLANKETING THE REGION. THE RESULTANT WEAK MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES
WILL CERTAINLY TEMPER DESTABILIZATION...BUT MODELS STILL SUGGEST
MODERATE INSTABILITY TO DEVELOP ACROSS THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON WHICH
SHOULD SUPPORT RATHER ROBUST POPS. AS SUCH WILL KEEP POPS IN THE
LIKELY CATEGORY AFTER 18Z AND CONTINUING THROUGH 06Z...WITH A WEST
TO EAST TAPERING OF POPS THROUGH DAYBREAK AS DRIER INFILTRATES IN
FROM THE WEST WITH PASSAGE OF THE UPPER TROUGH.

SEVERE THREAT THIS AFTERNOON/TONIGHT:
EXTENSIVE LOW-LEVEL CLOUD COVER WILL SLOW THE DAYTIME HEATING
PROCESS...BUT MODERATE INSTABILITY IS STILL EXPECTED TO DEVELOP BY
MID/LATE AFTERNOON WITH MLCAPE VALUES AROUND 2000 J/KG. SEASONABLY
STRONG 30KTS OF LOW/MID LEVEL FLOW SUGGESTS SOME RISK OF
GUSTY/DAMAGING WINDS IN THE STRONGER STORMS TODAY. FINALLY...WITH
THE SLOW MOVING FRONT...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE WESTERN PORTIONS OF
THE AREA THROUGH THE AFTERNOON...LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN WILL POSE A
MINOR FLOODING THREAT.

TEMPERATURES:
GIVEN RELATIVELY LITTLE CHANGE IN THE OVERALL PATTERN ASIDE FROM
BEING SLIGHTLY CLOSER TO THE LOW-LEVEL TROUGH ATTENDANT THE UPPER
LEVEL LOW...EXPECT HIGHS SIMILAR TO FRIDAY...LOWER/MID 80S WEST TO
MID/UPPER 80S EAST...OR 83-88F. WITH THE COLD FRONT MAKING SLOW
EASTWARD PROGRESS INTO THE AREA TONIGHT...EXPECT LOWS SLIGHTLY
COOLER THAN THIS MORNING...IN THE MID/UPPER 60S WEST TO UPPER 60S/
LOWER 70S EAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 200 AM SATURDAY...

SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT: A COUPLE OF SHORT WAVES MAY PULSE UP THE
BACK OF THE FRONT AS IT EXITS TO THE EAST. DYNAMIC TROPOPAUSE MAPS
SHOW THE BEST FORCING MOVING THROUGH CENTRAL NC AT 18Z. THIS WILL
KEEP A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IN THE EASTERN
HALF OF THE CWA...ESPECIALLY DURING THE AFTERNOON AS DAYTIME HEATING
AND INSTABILITY INCREASE. ABOUT 20 KNOTS OF BULK SHEAR SHOULD STILL
BE AVAILABLE AS WELL DURING THIS TIMEFRAME BUT QUICKLY
DETERIORATING. ANY CONVECTION SHOULD QUICKLY TAPER OFF AFTER 00Z
MONDAY AS THE FRONT MOVES OFFSHORE. HIGHS SUNDAY NEAR CLIMATOLOGICAL
NORMALS IN THE UPPER 80S. A RIDGE OF SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL
BUILD IN FROM THE WEST ON SUNDAY NIGHT KEEPING THINGS DRY AND THE
RISK FOR FOG OR LOW STRATUS RELATIVELY LOW. LOWS SUNDAY NIGHT MIDDLE
60S NORTHWEST TO UPPER 60S SOUTHEAST.

MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT: MONDAY SHOULD BE A FAIRLY PLEASANT DAY AS
CENTRAL NC WILL BE IN THE WEAK RIDGING BETWEEN TWO LONGWAVE UPPER
LEVEL TROUGHS. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE OVERHEAD AS WELL
WHICH SHOULD KEEP THINGS DRY FOR MOST OF THE DAY. LIGHT
SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW OF 5-10 KNOTS SHOULD PREVAIL THROUGHOUT THE DAY
WITH LITTLE TO NO GUSTINESS. THIS WEAK WARM AIR ADVECTION WILL BUMP
MAX TEMPERATURES UP TO OR JUST ABOVE 90...SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL.
AGAIN LITTLE TO NO THREAT FOR FOG OR LOW STRATUS BUT THE AIRMASS
WILL BE INCREASING IN MOISTURE CLOSER TO SUNRISE. LOWS MONDAY NIGHT
MIDDLE 60S TO NEAR 70. -ELLIS

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 200 AM SATURDAY...

TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT:
THE FIRST PORTION OF THE LONG TERM WILL CONSIST OF A LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM PASSING TO THE NORTH WITH AN FRONTAL SYSTEM MOVING ACROSS
NORTH CAROLINA TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. WHILE MODELS AGREE FOR
THE MOST PART ON THE TIMING OF THE FRONT...THEY ARE IN DISARRAY WHEN
IT COMES TO THE PLACEMENT AND ALSO THE STRENGTH OF THE PARENT LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM. THE GFS AND CANADIAN BOTH DEVELOP A STRONGER LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM WITH THE GFS MOVING IT OVER THE GREAT LAKES BY 00Z
WEDNESDAY AND THE CANADIAN FURTHER SOUTH OVER THE OHIO VALLEY. THE
ECMWF DOES NOT PRODUCE A STRONG LONG AND INSTEAD MOVES A COLLECTION
OF MESO-LOWS TO THE NORTH WITH THE STRONGEST ONE ONLY A MEAGER 1009
MB. WITH THE TIMING LATE EVENING TO OVERNIGHT TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY
THE ECMWF PRODUCES MUCH LESS QPF AND THE FRONT PASSES LARGELY DRY.
BECAUSE OF THE UNCERTAINTY AT THIS TIME...WILL CARRY LOW CHANCE POPS
THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS WITH SLIGHT CHANCE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON
ACROSS THE CWA. DYNAMIC TROPOPAUSE MAPS SHOW GOOD FORCING STILL
PRESENT WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON SO POPS THERE MAY NEED TO BE EDGED
UPWARD IN FUTURE FORECAST PACKAGES. TEMPERATURES DURING THIS PERIOD
WILL MAX OUT IN THE UPPER 80S TO LOW 90S WITH LOWS UPPER 60S TO
LOWER 70S.

THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY:
THURSDAY WILL BE PLEASANT AND DRY AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE AND A
WEAK UPPER LEVEL RIDGE MOVE IN FROM THE WEST. HAVE TAKEN OUT SLIGHT
CHANCE OF POPS IN THURSDAY AFTERNOON AS A VERY DRY AIRMASS WILL BE
IN PLACE WITH PW VALUES 0.5-0.75 INCHES ACROSS THE CWA. LIGHT WINDS
OUT OF THE NORTHWEST THURSDAY MORNING WILL GRADUALLY BACK TO THE
SOUTHWEST BY THURSDAY EVENING HIGHS THURSDAY NEAR 90 DEGREES WITH
LOWS UPPER 60S TO NEAR 70.

ON FRIDAY THE FORECAST CONFIDENCE BECOMES VERY LOW AS MODELS ONCE
AGAIN DIFFER DRASTICALLY WITH THE ECMWF THIS TIME BEING THE CULPRIT
IN PRODUCING A STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM ACROSS THE SOUTHERN GREAT
LAKES THAT CAUSES PRECIP TO SPREAD ACROSS THE CWA BY FRIDAY EVENING.
MEANWHILE THE PARENT LOW IN THE GFS IS MUCH FURTHER NORTH ACROSS THE
HUDSON BAY WITH A STRONG SURFACE HIGH OVER THE UPPER PLAINS STATES.
THIS KEEPS PRECIP ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONT TO OUR WEST UNTIL LATER
ON FRIDAY. WILL CARRY SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FRIDAY AFTERNOON INTO THE
EVENING. HIGHS FRIDAY UPPER 80S TO LOW 90S WITH LOWS FRIDAY NIGHT
NEAR 70 DEGREES. -ELLIS

&&

.AVIATION /18Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 130 PM SATURDAY...

WITH A COLD FRONT JUST TO OUR WEST AND A VERY MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIR
MASS PRESENT OVER THE REGION AHEAD OF THE FRONT...CONVECTION HAS
ALREADY DEVELOPED EARLY THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS MOST OF CENTRAL NC.
HAVE INCLUDED MENTION OF THUNDER (AND ASSOCIATED MVFR CONDITIONS) AT
ALL TAF SITES FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS...THEN WITH VCSH THROUGH
THE LATE EVENING/EARLY OVERNIGHT HOURS. SIMILAR TO LAST NIGHT...
SHOWERS AND/OR STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE THROUGHOUT THE OVERNIGHT
HOURS...ESPECIALLY FROM THE TRIANGLE AND EAST...BUT CONFIDENCE IN
COVERAGE AND LOCATION IS TOO LOW TO INCLUDE ANY MENTION IN THE TAF
FOR NOW. ANOTHER NIGHT OF MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED AS THE
FRONT WILL BE SLOW TO ADVANCE INTO THE AREA. CONDITIONS SHOULD
IMPROVE FIRST ACROSS THE TRIAD DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS OF
SUNDAY AS THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH...AND BY MID MORNING FURTHER EAST
(WHERE THERE IS UNCERTAINTY ON HOW FAR EAST THE FRONT WILL ACTUALLY
MAKE IT). THERE COULD BE AN ISOLATED SHOWER AND/STORM ACROSS THE
EAST ON SUNDAY...BUT WILL LEAVE MENTION OUT OF THE TAF FOR NOW.

OUTLOOK...DRIER AND MORE STABLE AIR WILL GRADUALLY OVERSPREAD
CENTRAL NC ON SUNDAY LEADING TO IMPROVING AVIATION CONDITIONS.
MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...BUT
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED (MAINLY AFTERNOON/EVENING) CONVECTION WILL
RETURN FOR TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY.
