AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
314 PM EDT WED JUN 26 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
A WARM AND HUMID AIR MASS COMBINED WITH A PERSISTENT TROUGH OF LOW
PRESSURE OVER THE REGION WILL RESULT IN A GOOD CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE UPCOMING WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 255 PM WEDNESDAY...

THROUGH TONIGHT: THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO GROW UPSCALE ACROSS THE
ERN SANDHILLS INTO THE CENTRAL/SRN COASTAL PLAIN THIS AFTERNOON...
WITHIN AN AREA OF HIGHER DEW POINTS (MID 70S) AND RESULTANT HIGHER
INSTABILITY (MLCAPE OF 2500 J/KG ON LATEST MESOANALYSIS) NEAR A WEAK
MCV. STORMS HAVE ALSO INCREASED QUICKLY IN COVERAGE OVER THE HIGHER
TERRAIN OF NC/VA ASSOCIATED WITH ANOTHER WEAK SHORTWAVE TROUGH...
AND THESE ARE TRANSLATING EASTWARD INTO THE NORTHWEST PIEDMONT.
EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR REMAINS RATHER WEAK (UNDER 20 KTS) AND ISN'T
EXPECTED TO CHANGE MUCH... BUT LAPSE RATES HAVE RISEN TO AROUND 6
C/KM ALOFT AND TO AROUND 7.5 C/KM FROM 0-3 KM... AND THE MID LEVEL
FLOW SHOULD BE JUST ENOUGH TO MAINTAIN A RISK OF STRONG STORMS FOR
SEVERAL MORE HOURS AS THE WAVE OVER THE MOUNTAINS TRACKS EASTWARD.
CAPE IN THE MIXED-PHASE REGION HAS RISE TO 500-700 J/KG AND D-CAPE
HAS GROWN TO 900 J/KG... SO DESPITE THE POOR SHEAR... AN ISOLATED
STORM OR TWO COULD STILL BECOME SEVERE. WILL GO WITH LIKELY TO
CATEGORICAL POPS AREAWIDE THROUGH THIS EVENING... TAPERING OFF
SHORTLY AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH THE LOSS OF HEATING AND THE EASTWARD
PASSAGE AND FURTHER WEAKENING OF THE WAVE IN FAVOR OF THE STRONGER
TROUGH DIVING INTO THE OH VALLEY. WITH NO APPRECIABLE CHANGE IN AIR
MASS... LOWS SHOULD BE SIMILAR TO LAST NIGHT... 68-73.

FOR THURSDAY/THURSDAY NIGHT: LATEST MODEL OUTPUT AND OBSERVED
UPSTREAM CONDITIONS SUPPORT A CONTINUATION OF HIGH CHANCE POPS...
ALTHOUGH STORMS SHOULD DEVELOP/ARRIVE EARLIER IN THE DAY AS COMPARED
TO TODAY. THE PROMINENT SHORTWAVE TROUGH DROPPING THROUGH THE OH
VALLEY TONIGHT IS EXPECTED TO TRACK EASTWARD OVER THE CENTRAL/SRN
APPALACHIANS THURSDAY MORNING... AND THROUGH CENTRAL/ERN
VA/CAROLINAS IN THE AFTERNOON... PROPELLED BY A 120+ KT UPPER JET
CORE EXTENDING FROM SW CANADA DOWN THROUGH THE MIDWEST TOWARD THE
CENTRAL APPALACHIANS... INDUCING UPPER DIVERGENCE OVER NC. 0-6 KM
BULK SHEAR IS EXPECTED TO IMPROVE TO AROUND 25 KTS WHILE MUCAPE
CLIMBS TO 2500-3000 J/KG BY LATE MORNING... SO WE SHOULD SEE GOOD
COVERAGE OF ORGANIZED CONVECTION AS EARLY AS LATE MORNING. THIS
INSTABILITY COMBINED WITH BETTER DYNAMIC FORCING FOR ASCENT THAN
WE'RE SEEING TODAY SHOULD RESULT IN NUMEROUS STORMS SPREADING
EASTWARD IN THE AFTERNOON... AND SOME OF THESE COULD BE STRONG TO
SEVERE. HEAVY RAIN REMAINS POSSIBLE AS WELL WITH PRECIP WATER VALUES
EXPECTED TO HOLD AT 1.6 TO NEAR 2.0 INCHES. AN EARLIER ONSET WITH
LITTLE CHANGE IN THICKNESSES SHOULD RESULT IN HIGHS A COUPLE OF
DEGREES LOWER THAN TODAY... 83-89. LOWS 67-72 WITH POPS DIMINISHING
OVERNIGHT. -GIH

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 310 PM WEDNESDAY...

GENERALLY A PERSISTENCE FORECAST OF AFTERNOON AND EVENING...PULSE TO
LOOSELY ORGANIZED MULTI-CELLULAR STORMS...IN A CONTINUED WARM...
HUMID...AND WEAKLY PERTURBED REGIME OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN US. LARGE
SCALE FORCING SHOULD BE SOMEWHAT WEAKER...FRI VERSUS THU...
HOWEVER...AS CENTRAL NC WILL BE BETWEEN THE SHARP S/W TROUGH
PROGRESSING THROUGH THE MIDDLE ATLANTIC ON THU...AND RENEWED
HEIGHT FALLS IN S/W TROUGH AMPLIFICATION CENTERED OVER THE TN VALLEY
ON FRI. AS SUCH...CONVECTIVE COVERAGE MAY LEAN MORE TOWARD SCATTERED
TO NUMEROUS...VERSUS NUMEROUS TO WIDESPREAD...WITH THE STRONGEST
STORMS AGAIN CAPABLE OF PRODUCING LOCALIZED FLOODING...A FEW WET
MICROBURSTS...AND MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL. HIGHS WITHIN A COUPLE OF
DEGREES OF 90...AND GENERALLY LOWER 70S FOR LOWS.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 250 PM WEDNESDAY...

STORMY. SHARP AMPLIFICATION OF A DEVELOPING TROUGH ALOFT OVER THE TN
VALLEY...FLANKED BY STRONG RIDGES OVER THE ROCKIES AND WESTERN
ATLANTIC...WILL OCCUR THIS WEEKEND. THIS LARGE SCALE PATTERN WILL
GRADUALLY RETROGRESS...WITH THE TROUGH DRIFTING WESTWARD INTO THE MS
VALLEY...THROUGH EARLY TO MID NEXT WEEK. THE PRESENCE AND
PERSISTENCE OF THE TROUGH WILL PLACE MUCH OF THE EASTERN
US...INCLUDING CENTRAL NC...IN A PATTERN OF PERTURBED AND DEEPLY
MOIST SW TO SSW FLOW ALOFT - FAVORABLE FOR ABOVE AVERAGE
PRECIPITATION CHANCES...PARTICULARLY SUNDAY ONWARD. SATURDAY MAY
HAVE A RELATIVE LULL IN CONVECTION GENERALLY WEST OF US HWY 1...WHEN
A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL BRIEFLY DRIFT EASTWARD AND PROMOTE A DRYING
WESTERLY LOW LEVEL FLOW...WITH DEWPOINTS DIPPING INTO THE LOWER
60S...OVER THE WESTERN PIEDMONT. LIKELY CHANCES WILL CONTINUE TO
THE EAST ON SATURDAY...HOWEVER.

THE PROLONGED STORMY PERIOD WILL ALSO FAVOR AN INCREASING RISK OF
FLOODING WITH EACH DAY THAT PASSES...WITH OTHERWISE AN OCCASIONAL
PRECIPITATION-LOADED WET MICROBURST FROM LOOSELY ORGANIZED
MULTI-CELL STORM MODES - ONES DRIVEN BY GENERALLY 20-30 KTS OF MID
LEVEL FLOW - THE OTHER MAIN HAZARD. THERE ARE INDICATIONS THAT THE
RETROGRESSION OF THE PATTERN WILL ALLOW THE WESTERN ATLANTIC RIDGING
TO EXPAND WESTWARD SUFFICIENTLY TO LESSEN PRECIPITATION
CHANCES/COVERAGE - FROM NUMEROUS/WIDESPREAD TO SCATTERED - OVER
EASTERN NC...INCLUDING THE RAH COASTAL PLAIN...BY THE MIDDLE OF THE
WEEK. HIGHS MOSTLY IN THE MIDDLE 80S...EXCEPT AROUND 90 ON
SATURDAY...AND LOWS 70 TO 75.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 155 PM WEDNESDAY...

VFR CONDITIONS WILL DOMINATE AT CENTRAL NC TAF SITES THROUGH 18Z
THURSDAY... HOWEVER THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE OF A SHORT PERIOD (UNDER
2 HOURS) OF MVFR OR IFR CONDITIONS IN AND NEAR CLUSTERS OF
THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON INTO VERY EARLY EVENING. STORMS ARE
MOST LIKELY TO AFFECT FAY 18Z-21Z... GSO/INT 19Z-22Z... AND RDU/RWI
20Z-00Z. STORMS MAY CONGEAL INTO LARGE CLUSTERS WHICH MAY BE
DIFFICULT TO CIRCUMNAVIGATE. STORMS SHOULD VERY SLOWLY WEAKEN AND
DISPERSE THROUGH 06Z TONIGHT. PATCHY SUB-VFR STRATUS IS POSSIBLE
LATE TONIGHT FROM 07Z-12Z BUT THE CHANCE THAT THESE SUB-VFR CLOUDS
WILL BECOME BROKEN ARE TOO LOW TO INCLUDE AS A PREDOMINANT
CONDITION. WARM AND HUMID CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THURSDAY... AND
THIS COMBINED WITH AN INCOMING UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE FROM THE WEST
WILL INITIATE SCATTERED STORMS BEGINNING AROUND THE NOON HOUR IN THE
TRIAD BEFORE SPREADING WESTWARD. TIMING UNCERTAINTY PRECLUDES
MENTIONING THUNDER WITH HIGH CONFIDENCE THAT LATE IN THE TAF VALID
PERIOD... BUT LATER TERMINAL FORECASTS WILL LIKELY INCLUDE A PERIOD
OF PREVAILING SUB-VFR THUNDERSTORMS.

LOOKING BEYOND 18Z THURSDAY: AN UNSETTLED PATTERN WILL PERSIST ALONG
THE U.S. EAST COAST. AS NOTED ABOVE... A BRIEF PERIOD OF SUB-VFR
CONDITIONS IN AND NEAR STORMS IS EXPECTED FROM VERY EARLY AFTERNOON
THROUGH VERY EARLY EVENING AS STORMS SPREAD EASTWARD THROUGH CENTRAL
NC. IFR STRATUS IS POSSIBLE AT RDU/RWI/FAY LATE THURSDAY NIGHT
THROUGH SUNRISE FRIDAY MORNING. GOOD CHANCE OF SHOWERS/STORMS AND
SUB-VFR CONDITIONS ESPECIALLY RDU/RWI/FAY LATE AFTERNOON FRIDAY
THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT... THEN SCATTERED LATE DAY STORMS MAY OCCUR
MAINLY AT RWI/FAY SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY. -GIH

.EQUIPMENT...
KRAX WSR-88D WILL BE DOWN FOR MUCH-NEEDED MAINTENANCE TODAY THROUGH
THURSDAY JUNE 27. KRAX HAS BEEN IN A SEVERELY DEGRADED MODE FOR
SEVERAL DAYS... AND THE NEEDED REPAIRS WERE DEEMED TO BE CRITICAL.
THE TEAM OF TECHNICIANS WILL MAKE THESE REPAIRS AS QUICKLY AS
POSSIBLE. WE APOLOGIZE FOR THE INCONVENIENCE. -GIH
