SOUTHEASTERN ORANGE...SOUTHWESTERN GRANVILLE AND DURHAM COUNTIES...

AT 606 AM EDT...THE THUNDERSTORMS WITH THE HEAVY RAIN HAVE EXITED 
THE REGION. HOWEVER WATER LEVELS WERE STILL RISING ON AREA CREEKS

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
320 AM EDT SUN JUN 30 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL REMAIN OVER THE EASTERN PART OF THE
COUNTRY THROUGH WEDNESDAY. THIS WEATHER SYSTEM WILL CAUSE PERIODS OF
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH HEAVY RAIN ACROSS CENTRAL
NC...ESPECIALLY MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 3 AM SUNDAY...

AN UNSEASONABLE DEEP MID/UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL AMPLIFY FURTHER
TODAY ACROSS THE OH/TN VALLEY REGION... WITH CENTRAL NC CAUGHT
BETWEEN THIS FEATURE AND THE WESTERN ATLANTIC RIDGE. THIS WILL ALLOW
FOR SOUTH/SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW THROUGHOUT THE COLUMN TO INCREASE TODAY
AND PW'S TO INCREASE BACK ABOVE 2 INCHES ACROSS THE EASTERN
HALF/THIRD OF THE AREA TODAY. THIS COMBINED WITH INCREASING UPPER
DIVERGENCE AND WEAK SUBTLE IMPULSES EMBEDDED IN THE
SOUTH/SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL ALLOW FOR PERIOD OF SHOWERS AND
STORMS TODAY WITH HEAVY RAIN... ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE EASTERN
HALF/THIRD OF THE AREA. WILL GO WITH POPS RANGING FROM HIGH CHANCE
NORTHWEST (WHERE MOISTURE WILL BE THE LEAST) TO CATEGORICAL ACROSS
THE EAST/SOUTHEAST. WE SHOULD SEE SEVERAL ROUNDS OF CONVECTION TODAY
AND TONIGHT... WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF TRAINING STORMS IN THE DEEP
SOUTH/SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW. EXPECT THE ACTIVITY WILL BE MORE MULTICELL
GIVEN THE DEEP LAYER SHEAR IS EXPECTED TO BE IN THE 25 TO 35 KT
RANGE. HOWEVER... GIVEN THE EXPECTED MOIST COLUMN AND POOR LAPSE
RATES... THINK THE SEVERE THREAT WILL GENERALLY BE LOW LIMITED TO
ISOLATED DAMAGING WIND GUSTS. THINK THE WESTERN PIEDMONT MAY STAND
THE BEST CHANCE AT SEE A SEVERE STORM OR TWO... GIVEN A BIT MORE
DRIER AIR ALOFT. STILL THINK THE MAIN THREAT TODAY WILL BE FROM THE
HEAVY RAIN AND POSSIBLE FLASH FLOODING. WILL NOT ISSUE A FLASH FLOOD
WATCH AT THIS TIME... AS FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE VALUES ARE STILL A
GOOD 2-3 INCHES FOR ONE HOURS ACROSS OUR EASTERN AND SOUTHEASTERN
PORTION OF OUR AREA.... WHERE WE EXPECTED THE BEST COVERAGE OF HEAVY
RAIN TODAY... ALONG WITH A STORM MOTION IN THE 20 TO 25 MPH RANGE
(ALTHOUGH TRAINING OF STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE GIVEN THE FLOW). WITH
THAT SAID... THE WESTERN ATLANTIC RIDGE BEGINS TO PUSH WESTWARD A
BIT TONIGHT INTO MONDAY... AS THE UPPER TROUGH AXIS RETROGRADES EVER
SO SLOWLY WESTWARD. THIS WILL LIKELY SHIFT THE HIGHER PW'S WESTWARD
INTO OUR WESTERN AREAS AS WELL... WHERE THE LOWER FLASH FLOOD
GUIDANCE VALUES ARE. FOR NOW... WILL OPT TO WAIT AND SEE HOW THE
SHOWERS AND STORMS EVOLVE TODAY... KEEPING IN MIND THAT A FLASH
FLOOD WATCH MAY BE NEEDED FOR MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY... PERHAPS INTO
WEDNESDAY. WRT CHANCES SHOWERS AND STORMS TONIGHT INTO MONDAY...
EXPECTED PERIODS OF SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL CONTINUE... WITH GREAT
COVERAGE AREAWIDE.

EXPECT HIGH TEMPS TODAY AND MONDAY WILL BE HAMPERED BY THE AMOUNT OF
MOISTURE/CLOUD COVER... ESPECIALLY ON MONDAY WHEN SHOWER/STORM
COVERAGE IS EXPECTED TO BE THE GREATEST. THUS... WILL GO WITH HIGHS
TODAY IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S... WITH HIGHS IN THE LOWER TO MID 80S
MONDAY. IT WILL BE WARM AND MUGGY TONIGHT... WITH LOWS IN THE LOWER
70S... WITH EVEN SOME MID 70S FOR AREAS THAT MISS OUT ON THE RAIN.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 320 AM SUNDAY...

MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...A STRONG UPPER LEVEL HIGH OVER THE
WESTERN ATLANTIC WILL IMPEDE THE EASTWARD PROGRESSION OF ANY STORM
SYSTEMS FROM THE CENTRAL U.S. THIS PERIOD. THUS THE UPPER LEVEL LOW
OVER THE OH VALLEY MONDAY NIGHT WILL SLOWLY RETROGRADE TO A POSITION
OVER THE LOWER MISSOURI VALLEY BY EARLY WEDNESDAY. THE CIRCULATION
AROUND THIS LOW AND THE ATLANTIC HIGH WILL RESULT IN A DEEP SLY FLOW
OVER THE CAROLINAS. THIS FLOW WILL ORIGINATE OVER THE MOISTURE-RICH
SOUTHERN GULF WHERE PRECIP WATER VALUES ARE IN THE 2.25-2.4 INCH
RANGE THIS MORNING.  THIS MOISTURE LADEN AIR MASS WILL SERVE AS A
LAUNCHING PAD FOR SHOWERS AND T-STORMS TO DEVELOP...ESPECIALLY
DURING THE HEAT OF THE DAY OR WITH THE PASSAGE OF ANY UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCES. THUS...EXPECT ABNORMALLY HIGH POPS FOR THIS TIME OF
YEAR MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

POTENTIAL WILL EXIST FOR LOCALIZED FLOODING AS DEEP SLY FLOW WILL
LIKELY RESULT IN CONVECTION TRAINING REPEATEDLY OVER THE SAME
LOCATION. WHILE THE NEED FOR A FLOOD OR FLASH FLOOD WATCH NEEDS TO
BE CONSIDERED...DIFFICULT TO PINPOINT TIME AND LOCATION DUE TO THE
LACK OF A LOW LEVEL BOUNDARY TO FOCUS CONVECTION. NOT OUT OF THE
QUESTION THAT 1-3 INCHES OF RAIN WILL FALL ACROSS CENTRAL NC MONDAY
NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS PROBABLE. BEST
ROUTE AT THIS TIME IS TO HIGHLIGHT FLOODING THREAT IN HWO.

EXTENSIVE CLOUDINESS AND SCATTERED-NUMEROUS SHOWERS/STORMS WILL
LIMIT NORMAL DIURNAL TEMP TREND. WHILE OVERNIGHT MIN TEMPS WILL BE
IN THE MUGGY UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S...AFTERNOON TEMPS IN THE LOW-MID
80S WILL BE COMMON (VERSUS NORMAL UPPER 80S TO NEAR 90).

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 320 AM SUNDAY...

THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY SHOULD SEE A GRADUAL DIMINISHING IN THE
CONVECTIVE COVERAGE AS MAIN MOISTURE PLUME SHIFTS WESTWARD IN
RESPONSE TO ATLANTIC HIGH BUILDING WESTWARD. RESIDUAL MOISTURE
COUPLED WITH HEATING WILL CAUSE ISOLATED-SCATTERED AFTERNOON
CONVECTION. AFTERNOON TEMPS WILL RETURN TO NEAR NORMAL LEVELS AS
BUILDING HEIGHTS ALOFT WILL LEAD TO DRIER AIR AND BETTER POTENTIAL
FOR PARTLY SUNNY SKIES. AFTERNOON TEMPS THURSDAY IN THE MID-UPPER
80S....RISING INTO THE THE UPPER 80S TO AROUND 90 FRIDAY-SATURDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 140 AM SUNDAY...

24-HR TAF PERIOD:
MOISTURE CONTINUES TO INCREASE ACROSS THE AREA THIS MORNING AS A
DEEP TROUGH ALOFT CENTERED TO THE WEST OF THE AREA INCREASE
SOUTHERLY/SOUTH-SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW. THIS WILL LEAD TO ANOTHER ROUND
OF LOW STRATUS THIS MORNING... FIRST ACROSS THE EASTERN SITES
(KFAY/KRWI/KRDU) THEN... SPREADING WEST TO THE TRIAD TERMINALS
(KGSO/KINT). EXPECT CIGS WILL GENERALLY RANGE FROM IFR TO LOW END
MVFR. WITH MOISTURE CONTENT HIGHER ACROSS EASTERN PORTIONS OF
CENTRAL NC... EXPECT CIGS WILL BE SLOWEST TO LIFT THERE AFTER
SUNRISE... ALONG WITH THE THREAT OF A FEW SHOWERS AND STORMS FROM
TIME TO TIME THIS MORNING. EXPECT CIGS WILL GENERALLY BECOME VFR
FROM 13 TO 17Z ACROSS THE AREA (MAYBE LINGERING A BIT LONGER AT
KFAY/KRWI DEPENDING ON ANY SHOWER/STORM ACTIVITY). WILL GO WITH VCSH
FROM LATE MORNING INTO THE AFTERNOON FOR THE EASTERN TAF SITES...
GIVEN THE SUFFICIENT MOISTURE EXPECTED ACROSS THE EAST... ALONG WITH
THE PRESENCE OF SMALL AMPLITUDE DISTURBANCES EMBEDDED WITHIN
UNSEASONABLY STRONG S/SW FLOW ALOFT. SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL BE
POSSIBLE ACROSS WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA... BUT CONFIDENCE IN
THE COVERAGE IS NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO MENTION IN THE TAFS AT THIS TIME.
ANY SHOWERS AND STORMS TODAY WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE VERY
HEAVY RAIN AND LOW VISBYS... ALONG WITH SOME GUSTY WINDS. THE THREAT
FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL CONTINUE INTO THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT
AS CENTRAL NC WILL REMAIN IN A FAVORABLE LOCATIONS FOR CONTINUED
PERIODS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.

LOOKING AHEAD:
EXPECT ATYPICALLY WIDESPREAD AND PERSISTENT SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS
THROUGH MID-WEEK IN ASSOCIATION WITH AN UNSEASONABLY DEEP UPPER
LEVEL TROUGH CENTERED JUST WEST OF THE APPALACHIANS AND PLENTIFUL
GULF/ATLANTIC MOISTURE DOWNSTREAM OVER THE CAROLINAS. COVERAGE AND
INTENSITY OF CONVECTION WILL LIKELY PEAK DURING THE AFTERNOON AND
EVENING HOURS EACH DAY...WITH LINGERING ACTIVITY POSSIBLE DURING THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS AND AN ABOVE NORMAL POTENTIAL FOR IFR/LIFR STRATUS
OR FOG DURING THE MORNING HOURS.

&&

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

OFF...CAUSING WATER LEVELS ON AREA CREEKS AND STREAMS TO RISE
QUICKLY...POSSIBLY LEADING TO FLASH FLOODING. IN ADDITION...AN
ISOLATED SEVERE THUNDERSTORM IS POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON WITH THE
PRIMARY SEVERE WEATHER THREAT DAMAGING WINDS.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY.

PERIODS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH HEAVY RAIN CAN BE
EXPECTED MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY. DUE TO RECENT RAINFALL...THIS
ADDITIONAL RAINFALL MAY LEAD TO FLASH FLOODING...ESPECIALLY ALONG
CREEKS AND STREAMS IN URBANIZED LOCATIONS. A FLASH FLOOD WATCH MAY
BE NEEDED ONCE IT BECOMES MORE CERTAIN WHEN AND WHERE THE
WIDESPREAD HEAVY RAIN WILL OCCUR.
