AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
304 PM EDT MON MAY 6 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
A STRONG UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL TRACK SLOWLY EAST NORTHEAST INTO THE
CAROLINAS THROUGH WEDNESDAY...THEN MOVE OFFSHORE THE MID-ATLANTIC
COAST WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 255 PM MONDAY...

OVERVIEW:
A POTENT UPPER LEVEL LOW CENTERED OVER EASTERN TN AT 18Z WILL REMAIN
NEARLY STATIONARY THROUGH TONIGHT. SHORTWAVE ENERGY ROUNDING THE
BASE OF THE UPPER LOW OVER UPSTATE SC AT 18Z WILL TRACK INTO WESTERN
NORTH CAROLINA LATE THIS AFTERNOON...PROGRESSING NORTHWEST INTO
VA/WV THIS EVENING INTO TONIGHT.

PRECIPITATION:
AS THE AFOREMENTIONED SHORTWAVE TRACKS THROUGH UPSTATE SC AND
EVENTUALLY INTO WESTERN NC AROUND AND SHORTLY AFTER PEAK HEATING
(18-00Z)...EXPECT ISOLD/SCT CONVECTION TO DEVELOP WEST OF HWY 1
ACROSS THE W/SW PIEDMONT WHERE INSOLATION AND STEEPENING MID-LEVEL
LAPSE RATES WILL CONTRIBUTE TO 500-1000 J/KG OF MLCAPE. AN ISOLD
FLASH FLOOD THREAT WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE IN THE NW PIEDMONT THIS
AFT/EVE IF ADDITIONAL SHRA/TSRA ACTIVITY DEVELOPS AND TRAINS OVER
AREAS THAT RECEIVED LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL EARLIER TODAY.

SEVERE THREAT:
MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND DEEP-LAYER SHEAR WILL BECOME MORE
FAVORABLE FOR ORGANIZED CONVECTION THIS AFT/EVE WEST OF HWY 1 AS
SHORTWAVE ENERGY TRACKS INTO THE WESTERN PIEDMONT AROUND THE
NORTHEAST PERIPHERY OF THE UPPER LOW. LOW AND MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES
ON THE ORDER OF 7-8 C/KM IN THE PRESENCE OF 35-45 KT DEEP-LAYER
SHEAR WILL SUPPORT A POTENTIAL FOR ISOLD SUPERCELLS WITH A PRIMARY
THREAT OF LARGE HAIL. DAMAGING WIND CANNOT BE RULED OUT WHERE
MID-LEVEL DRYING AND STEEPENING LOW-LEVEL LAPSE RATES CONTRIBUTE TO
RELATIVELY HIGHER DCAPE...PRIMARILY IN THE WESTERN SANDHILLS AND SW
PIEDMONT.

TEMPERATURES:
EXPECT LOWS TONIGHT RANGING GENERALLY FROM THE LOWER TO MID
50S...COOLEST IN THE WEST/SW PIEDMONT. -VINCENT

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 230 PM MONDAY...

...UNSETTLED WEATHER WILL CONTINUE WITH THE LINGERING MID/UPPER LOW
TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY EVENING...

THERE IS GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT WITH THE FORECAST TRACK/STRENGTH OF
UPPER LOW CURRENTLY LOCATED OVER THE LOWER TENNESSEE VALLEY AND
SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS. THE MID/UPPER LEVEL CUT OFF LOW SHOULD BEGIN
THE MORNING TUESDAY OVER UPSTATE SC. THE SYSTEM IS THEN FORECAST TO
SLOWLY WEAKEN AND OPEN UP AS IT MOVES ENE OVER CENTRAL NORTH
CAROLINA BY TUESDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING... THEN INTO SOUTHERN VIRGINIA
BY EARLY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. THE UPPER LOW IS THEN FORECAST TO
WOBBLE AROUND OVER VA ON WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. SEVERAL
VORTICITY MAXIMA ARE FORECAST TO ROTATE AROUND THE MID/UPPER
CIRCULATION AS IT MAKES THIS TRACK ACROSS THE REGION TUESDAY THROUGH
WEDNESDAY EVENING. THE FINAL VORTICITY MAXIMUM SHOULD ROUND THE
UPPER LOW WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON... TRACKING SE ACROSS CENTRAL AND
EASTERN NC DURING MAXIMUM HEATING. THE UPSHOT OF ALL THIS WILL BE
LIKELIHOOD OF SHOWERS AND SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS TUESDAY THROUGH
WEDNESDAY EVENING... WITH THE HIGHEST LIKELIHOOD DURING THE
AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS BOTH DAYS AIDED BY SURFACE HEATING UNDER
THE DECREASING HEIGHTS AND TEMPERATURES ALOFT. THE SEVERE THREAT
APPEARS SMALL BUT CERTAINLY NON-ZERO BOTH DAYS. THE MID LEVEL LAPSE
RATES ARE STILL FORECAST IN THE 6.5 TO 6.75 C/KM DURING THE
AFTERNOON WITH CORRESPONDING MLCAPES ON THE ORDER OF 500 TO 1000
J/KG. THE LACK OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AS SURFACE DEW POINTS MIX OUT
INTO THE 40S AND LOWER 50S TUESDAY... COMBINED WITH ONLY MODEST
WARMING INTO THE UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S SHOULD KEEP THE INSTABILITY
SOMEWHAT IN CHECK. THERE MAY BE MORE COVERAGE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AS
A SURFACE COLD FRONT SHOULD FOCUS CONVERGENCE AND LIFT AS THE LAST
VORTICITY LOBE PASSES OVERHEAD DURING PEAK HEATING INTO THE EVENING.
SENSIBLE WEATHER... VARIABLY CLOUDY TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY
EVENING WITH SHOWERS AND SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS BOTH AFTERNOON AND
EVENING PERIODS... DECREASING TO A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND ISOLATED
THUNDER TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT. LOWS IN THE 50S. HIGHS IN THE
UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 245 PM SUNDAY...

SUBSIDENCE IN THE REAR OF THE DEPARTING UPPER LOW TO OUR NW AND THE
APPROACH OF THE LOW AMPLITUDE SHORTWAVE RIDGE FROM THE WEST WILL AID
IN A SIGNIFICANTLY DRIER AND WARMER DAY THURSDAY. THE SKIES SHOULD
BECOME MOSTLY SUNNY. THE RETURN OF THE SUN THURSDAY WILL WARM THE
REGION BACK TO BETWEEN 75 AND 80. THESE READING SHOULD BE VERY NEAR
THE 30 YEAR NORMALS FOR MAY 9TH. LOWS THURSDAY NIGHT OF 53-58
EXPECTED WITH MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES.

FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY...

WARM FRIDAY... BUT INCREASING CHANCES OF SHOWERS/STORMS WITH A COLD
FRONT OVER THE WEEKEND. MUCH COOLER AND DRIER EARLY NEXT WEEK.

A MORE PROGRESSIVE BUT STILL AMPLIFIED FLOW PATTERN IS FORECAST TO
DEVELOP ACROSS THE UNITED STATES LATE WEEK THROUGH THE WEEKEND.
THERE CONTINUE TO BE SOME TIMING DIFFERENCES WITH THE EXPECTED COLD
FRONTAL PASSAGE OVER THE WEEKEND. HOWEVER... IT APPEARS THAT A MORE
PROGRESSIVE FLOW PATTERN SHOULD LEAD TO A QUICKER FRONTAL PASSAGE
THAN HAS BEEN EXPERIENCED WITH THE LAST TWO "CLOSED LOW" EVENTS.
CURRENTLY... THE TIMING OF THE COLD FRONT APPEARS TO BE SATURDAY
NIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING. THIS WOULD YIELD THE BEST CHANCE OF
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND OVERNIGHT...
LINGERING IN THE EAST INTO SUNDAY MORNING. WE WILL CONTINUE TO
ADVERTISE THE CHANCE POP SAT AFTERNOON INTO EARLY SUNDAY. COOLER AND
DRIER AIR CAN BE EXPECTED BEHIND THE FRONT LATE SUNDAY THROUGH
MONDAY AIDED BY THE AMPLIFIED TROUGH OVER THE EASTERN STATES. LOWS
60-65 WITH HIGHS 77-82 FRIDAY... AND 75-82 SATURDAY... COOLING TO
70-75 SUNDAY AND 65-70 MONDAY. THE HIGHS MONDAY SHOULD AGAIN BE
AROUND 10 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 200 PM MONDAY...

24-HR TAF PERIOD:
A RANGE OF CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THIS EVENING INTO TONIGHT...FROM
VFR AT THE FAY TERMINAL TO MVFR AND PERIODIC IFR CONDITIONS AT THE
INT/GSO/RDU/RWI TERMINALS IN ASSOCIATION WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH 21-00Z. THE BEST CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS
THROUGH 21Z WILL BE AT THE RDU/INT/GSO TERMINALS...THEN AT THE
INT/GSO TERMINALS BETWEEN 21-00Z WHERE AN ISOLD SEVERE STORM CAPABLE
OF PRODUCING LARGE HAIL WILL BE POSSIBLE. MVFR CEILINGS AND
SHOWERS/STORMS MAY LINGER AT THE INT/GSO/RDU TERMINALS THROUGH
00-03Z THIS EVENING...THOUGH CHANCES ARE EXPECTED TO DIMINISH
MARKEDLY BY MIDNIGHT. SUB-VFR VISBYS IN FOG OR LOW CEILINGS WILL BE
POSSIBLE AT ALL TERMINALS BETWEEN 06-12Z TUESDAY MORNING. MVFR
CONDITIONS WITH SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE ONCE AGAIN BY
THE END OF THE TAF PERIOD (12-18Z TUE) AS A POTENT UPPER LEVEL LOW
TRACKS SLOWLY EAST INTO CENTRAL NC.

LOOKING AHEAD:
SUB-VFR CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE THROUGH WED NIGHT AS THE
UPPER LEVEL LOW SLOWLY TRACKS NORTHEAST FROM CENTRAL NC TO THE
MID-ATLANTIC COAST. A PERIOD OF VFR CONDITIONS IS EXPECTED THU AND
THU NIGHT IN THE WAKE OF THE UPPER LEVEL LOW...WITH SUB-VFR
CONDITIONS POSSIBLE ONCE AGAIN FRI AFTERNOON INTO THE WEEKEND AS A
COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. -VINCENT
