Severe Thunderstorm Warning 80, NWS Raleigh, NC

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
300 PM EDT FRI JUN 28 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 EACH DAY THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 245 PM FRIDAY...

THROUGH TONIGHT: LITTLE DOUBT THAT MOST IF NOT ALL OF THE AREA WILL
SEE SHOWERS/STORMS IN THE NEXT 18 HOURS. ACCORDING TO CURRENT
MESOANALYSES WE CONTINUE TO DESTABILIZE WITH MLCAPE ALREADY UP TO
1500-2500 J/KG AND MUCAPE AROUND 3000 J/KG. A BROKEN LINE OF SHOWERS
AND STORMS HAS FORMED OVER SOUTH-CENTRAL AND SW VA INTO THE NC
MOUNTAINS... AND THIS CONVECTION IS ON TRACK TO DROP ESE THROUGH
CENTRAL NC FROM MID AFTERNOON THROUGH THE EVENING. AS EXPECTED...
DEEP LAYER SHEAR CONTINUES TO IMPROVE TO 30-35 KTS... SUPPORTIVE OF
ORGANIZED CONVECTION... PARTICULARLY AS THIS INCOMING LINE FEEDS ON
A HIGHLY MOIST AND BUOYANT BOUNDARY LAYER WITH TEMPS NEAR 90 (THANKS
TO PLENTY OF HEATING THUS FAR) AND DEW POINTS IN THE LOW-MID 70S.
EXPECT CONVECTION TO BECOME MORE NUMEROUS AND STRENGTHEN AS IT TAPS
INTO THIS JUICIER AIR ALONG AND EAST OF THE HIGHWAY 1 CORRIDOR.
RECENT HRRR RUNS DEPICTED THIS SCENARIO FAIRLY WELL... BRINGING
SCATTERED STORMS INTO THE TRIAD TOWARD 19-20Z WHICH THEN CONGEAL
INTO AN ORGANIZED BAND OF STORM CLUSTERS HEADING EASTWARD THROUGH
04Z. STILL APPEARS THAT SEVERE WIND GUSTS WILL BE THE BIGGEST SEVERE
THREAT LATE TODAY INTO TONIGHT GIVEN THAT WE HAVE SOME DRIER AIR NOT
FAR OFF THE SURFACE AND DECENT D-CAPE AT OR OVER 800 J/KG. THE -10C
TO -30C CAPE IS NOT ESPECIALLY LARGE BUT HAS RISEN A BIT IN RECENT
HOURS TO NEAR 500 J/KG EAST OF THE HIGHER TERRAIN... THUS LARGE HAIL
REMAINS POSSIBLE BUT IS A SECONDARY THREAT. WILL CONTINUE TO TREND
POPS DOWN AND OUT GRADUALLY WEST TO EAST AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH LOSS OF
HEATING. FOG/STRATUS HAS BEEN TOUGH TO FORECAST THE LAST FEW DAYS
BUT WILL LEAN TOWARD PERSISTENCE... WITH BETTER COVERAGE EAST OF
HIGHWAY 1 WITHIN A VERY LIGHT SW FLOW.

FOR SATURDAY/SATURDAY NIGHT: CONTINUED WARM... DAMP... AND HUMID.
WE'LL REMAIN BENEATH CLIMATOLOGICALLY FAST CYCLONIC MID LEVEL FLOW
HEADING INTO THE WEEKEND. MODELS SHOW THE SURFACE TROUGH SHIFTING TO
THE COASTAL PLAIN SATURDAY MORNING WITH MARKEDLY LOWER SURFACE
THETA-E VALUES PUSHING INTO THE WRN FORECAST AREA. EXPECT TO SEE
SOME LINGERING PATCHY SHOWERS ALONG WITH AREAS OF STRATUS OVER THE
COASTAL PLAIN SATURDAY MORNING... BUT WEAK TO ABSENT DYNAMIC FORCING
FOR ASCENT AND TYPICALLY LOWER INSTABILITY AND LINGERING CINH THAT
TIME OF DAY WILL LIMIT COVERAGE/STRENGTH OF ANY CONVECTION DURING
THE MORNING... AND THE WRN PIEDMONT SHOULD REMAIN DRY THROUGH
MIDDAY. WITH THE INJECTION OF ENERGY DOWN ITS WEST SIDE... THE MID
LEVEL TROUGH IS EXPECTED TO DIG STRONGLY DOWN LAKE MICHIGAN INTO IN
AND THE WRN OH VALLEY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT... CAUSING A BACKING OF
MID LEVEL WINDS OVER NC TO A MORE SOUTHERLY DIRECTION AND A GRADUAL
STRENGTHENING AND BUILDING OF THE ATLANTIC ANTICYCLONE WESTWARD
TOWARD COASTAL NC. THIS WILL EFFECTIVELY LEAD TO DISSIPATION OF THE
ERN NC SURFACE TROUGH WHILE THE MORE SUBSTANTIAL FRONTAL ZONE
STRENGTHENS TO OUR WEST AND HIGH PW VALUES REBOUND BACK WESTWARD
THROUGH CENTRAL NC WITH AN ATTENDING RESURGENCE OF HIGHER 850 MB
THETA-E. THE NAM/GFS HANDLE THEIR PRECIP FIELDS DIFFERENTLY WITH THE
NAM HOLDING WIDESPREAD CONVECTION TO OUR EAST AND WEST UNTIL VERY
LATE SATURDAY NIGHT... WHILE THE GFS DEVELOPS CONVECTION WITH
HEATING SATURDAY AFTERNOON ESPECIALLY ALONG THE HIGHWAY 1
CORRIDOR... WHICH THEN PERSISTS THROUGH THE NIGHT AS THE 2+ INCH
PRECIP WATER VALUES SPREAD FROM THE COAST WESTWARD THROUGH ALL OF
CENTRAL NC. THE GFS'S PATTERN LOOKS TO BE A MORE REASONABLE
SCENARIO... WITH MORE SCATTERED DISCRETE CELLS IN THE FAR WRN
PIEDMONT (WHERE SURFACE DEW POINTS AND HENCE INSTABILITY WILL LIKELY
BE A BIT LOWER) TRENDING TO NUMEROUS CLUSTERS OF MULTICELLS ROUGHLY
EAST OF A LINE FROM ROXBORO TO SILER CITY TO WADESBORO (ATTENDING
THE GREATER INSTABILITY AND PW). THE BACKED STEERING FLOW AND
EXPECTED ORIENTATION OF CONVECTIVE BANDS WILL BRING ABOUT A CONCERN
FOR TRAINING ECHOES AND LOCALIZED URBAN AND STREET FLOODING AND
SWOLLEN CREEKS STARTING SATURDAY... ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING THE
IMPROVING UPPER DIVERGENCE OVER CENTRAL/ERN NC IN THE RIGHT ENTRANCE
REGION OF THE SOUTHERLY JET TO OUR NNW. AFTER MUCH COORDINATION AND
DISCUSSION... WILL NOT GO WITH A FLASH FLOOD WATCH AS YET... AS
WIDESPREAD HEAVY RAIN HAS YET TO MATERIALIZE IN THE ERN
PIEDMONT/SANDHILLS/COASTAL PLAIN WHERE THE MORE SANDY SOIL AND
FLATTER TERRAIN RESULTS IN SLOWER RUNOFF... BUT URBAN AREAS WILL
REMAIN VULNERABLE TO SOME FLOODING. WE WILL CONTINUE TO RE-EVALUATE
AND CONSIDER THIS RISK AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE WEEKEND. WILL HAVE A
GOOD CHANCE OF SHOWERS/STORMS WEST SATURDAY AFTERNOON/NIGHT WITH
LIKELY POPS ALONG/EAST OF THE AFOREMENTIONED LINE COVERING THE
CENTRAL/ERN CWA. DEEP LAYER SHEAR IS NOT TREMENDOUS BUT DOES IMPROVE
FURTHER TO 25-35 KTS... ALTHOUGH MODEL MLCAPE VALUES ONLY PEAK AT
800-1500 J/KG SATURDAY AFTERNOON ALONG/EAST OF HIGHWAY 1...
SUGGESTING PERHAPS A MORE MOIST-ADIABATIC PROFILE THAN WE'VE SEEN
LATELY. POTENTIALLY WEAKER UPDRAFTS ESPECIALLY ALOFT COULD LOWER THE
RISK OF SEVERE STORMS... BUT AGAIN THE DEEP WARM LAYER (LCL TO
FREEZING DEPTH NEAR 4 KM) AND PW NEAR 2 INCHES (WHICH IS NEARLY 2
STANDARD DEVIATIONS ABOVE NORMAL) SUPPORT A HEAVY RAIN THREAT WITH
WARM RAIN PROCESSES DOMINATING. HIGHS 87-91. LOWS 68-72. -GIH

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 245 PM FRIDAY...

THE WELL-ADVERTISED DEVELOPING TROUGH ALOFT WILL HAVE BECOME
STRONGLY AMPLIFIED AND ESTABLISHED OVER THE TN VALLEY THIS
PERIOD...BETWEEN A PAIR OF ANOMALOUSLY STRONG RIDGES OVER WESTERN N.
AMERICA AND THE WESTERN N. ATLANTIC. WHILE LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE IN
ASSOCIATION WITH A LEE TROUGH/WEAK FRONT WILL HAVE DIMINISHED FROM
PREVIOUS DAYS...THE PATTERN OF PERTURBED SW TO SSW DEEP LAYER FLOW
WILL DRIVE NUMEROUS TO WIDESPREAD SHOWERS/STORMS...AMIDST A DEEP
MOIST AXIS CHARACTERIZED BY PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES AROUND TWO
INCHES...SUNDAY AND LIKELY THROUGHOUT SUNDAY NIGHT. DEEP LAYER SHEAR
ON THE ORDER OF 25-30 KTS...TO PERHAPS 35 KTS OVER THE NW
PIEDMONT...WILL SUPPORT PRIMARILY MULTI-CELL BANDS CAPABLE OF
PRODUCING WET MICROBURSTS...AND TO A GREATER EXTENT LOCALIZED
FLOODING OWING THE ANOMALOUSLY HIGH PW/S. HIGHS GENERALLY IN THE MID
80S...AND LOWER 70S FOR LOWS.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 255 PM FRIDAY...

CONTINUED...IF NOT INCREASINGLY...WET. THE LARGE SCALE
RIDGE/TROUGH/RIDGE CONFIGURATION ACROSS NOAM WILL GRADUALLY
RETROGRESS...WITH THE TROUGH DRIFTING WESTWARD INTO THE MS
VALLEY...THROUGH MID-LATE WEEK. THE PRESENCE AND PERSISTENCE OF THE
TROUGH WILL KEEP 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
THROUGH WEDNESDAY. THE PROLONGED STORMY PERIOD WILL 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 DRIVEN BY GENERALLY 20-25
KTS OF MID LEVEL FLOW. ASIDE FROM THE 00Z/28TH ECMWF...THE CONSENSUS
OF MEDIUM RANGE GUIDANCE...INCLUDING THE 00Z ECMWF ENSEMBLE
MEAN...INDICATES THE PATTERN RETROGRESSION WILL ALLOW THE WESTERN
ATLANTIC SUB-TROPICAL RIDGING TO EXPAND WESTWARD SUFFICIENTLY TO
LESSEN PRECIPITATION CHANCES/COVERAGE - FROM NUMEROUS/WIDESPREAD TO
SCATTERED - OVER EASTERN NC...INCLUDING THE RAH COASTAL PLAIN...BY
MID TO LATE WEEK. HIGHS MOSTLY IN THE MIDDLE 80S...WITH LOWS 70 TO
75.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z THURSDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 135 PM FRIDAY...

THIS MORNING'S IFR STRATUS AFFECTING RDU/RWI/FAY HAS SHIFTED
EASTWARD AND MIXED OUT... AND VFR CONDITIONS WILL DOMINATE THIS
AFTERNOON. BUT WE REMAIN IN A WARM... HUMID... AND UNSETTLED PATTERN
OVER CENTRAL NC... WITH A HIGH PROBABILITY OF STORMS PARTICULARLY AT
RDU/RWI/FAY MID-LATE AFTERNOON THROUGH TONIGHT. LOCAL TORRENTIAL
DOWNPOURS WITH BRIEF IFR/LIFR CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE WITH THESE
SHOWERS AND STORMS... ALONG WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR SURFACE WIND
GUSTS OVER 40 MPH. SCATTERED STORMS ARE EXPECTED NEAR INT/GSO AFTER
19Z... SPREADING EASTWARD TOWARD RDU/RWI/FAY AFTER 21Z AND BECOMING
NUMEROUS. STORM CHANCES WILL PERSIST IN LATE EVENING AT
RDU/RWI/FAY... TAPERING TO LIGHTER AND MORE PATCHY SHOWERS LATE
TONIGHT. BASED ON THE PERSISTENCE OF THIS PATTERN... AREAS OF
IFR/LIFR STRATUS ARE POSSIBLE AFTER 07Z TONIGHT AT RDU/RWI/FAY...
BUT ONCE AGAIN THE MODELS ARE PRESENTING CONFLICTING GUIDANCE
REGARDING THIS THREAT... SO CONFIDENCE IN OCCURRENCE OF A
PREDOMINANT IFR/LIFR CIG IS LOW. ANY SUCH STRATUS WOULD LIFT BY 14Z
SATURDAY MORNING... AND VFR CONDITIONS WOULD THEN HOLD THROUGH 18Z.

LOOKING BEYOND 18Z SATURDAY... SHOWERS/STORMS AND ATTENDANT MVFR OR
IFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO BECOME MORE NUMEROUS SATURDAY
AFTERNOON INTO THE NIGHT... SO EXPECT INCREASINGLY POTENTIAL FOR
ADVERSE AVIATION CONDITIONS... ESPECIALLY AT RDU/RWI/FAY. WITH
MINIMAL CHANGE IN THE OVERALL PATTERN OVER THE CONUS... THE RISK FOR
DAILY NUMEROUS SUB-VFR SHOWERS AND STORMS (PRIMARILY FROM MID
AFTERNOON THROUGH MIDNIGHT) AND SHALLOW EARLY-MORNING IFR STRATUS IS
EXPECTED TO PERSIST INTO THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. -GIH
