AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
1030 AM EDT TUE JUL 2 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
THE COMBINATION OF A WARM HUMID AIR MASS AND A SERIES OF UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCES ALOFT WILL CAUSE PERIODS OF HEAVY SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS CENTRAL NC THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 1030 AM TUESDAY...

...FLASH FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT THROUGH 6 PM TODAY GENERALLY EAST OF
I-95 AND UNTIL 8 PM WEDNESDAY ALONG AND WEST OF I-95...

REST OF TODAY: FORECAST IS IN GOOD SHAPE WITH ADJUSTMENTS TO ACCOUNT
FOR ONGOING SHOWERS AND ISOLATED STORMS OVER THE AREA AND UPSTREAM.
A SUBTLE VORTICITY LOBE IS CURRENTLY RIDING UP THROUGH THE NC
PIEDMONT (AS SHOWN QUITE WELL BY YESTERDAY'S MODELS)... HELPING TO
PROMPT WIDESPREAD RAIN AND A FEW STORMS OVER THE CENTRAL/ERN
PORTIONS OF THE CWA WITHIN AN ANOMALOUSLY MOIST COLUMN WITH PW
VALUES OF 1.8-2.0 INCHES. THE LATEST HRRR RUNS SHOW VERY WELL THIS
AREA OF MORE MODERATE RAINFALL OVER THE WRN PIEDMONT AS WELL AS THE
MORE DISCRETE HEAVIER SHOWERS AND ISOLATED STORMS NOW OVER SOUTHEAST
NC POISED TO TRACK NORTHWARD OVER EASTERN SECTIONS. WHILE AREAS
ALONG AND WEST OF HIGHWAY 1 ARE PARTICULARLY UNDER THE GUN TODAY
GIVEN THE RECENT HEAVY RAINFALL OF THE LAST FEW DAYS AND
EXCEPTIONALLY LOW FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE... AS LOW AS A THIRD OF AN
INCH IN SOME SPOTS... AND THE CONTINUED DEEP LCL-TO-0C LAYER AND
HIGH PW STILL FAVOR HEAVY RAIN RATES WITH ANY SHOWERS/STORMS. FLASH
FLOOD WATCH WILL BE LEFT AS IS. WHILE INSTABILITY IS MARGINAL TODAY
WITH OBSERVED MLCAPE OF 500-1000 J/KG... THE RAP DOES SHOW VALUES
REACHING 1000-2200 J/KG THIS AFTERNOON (HIGHEST EAST) WITH 30 KTS OF
DEEP LAYER SHEAR... AND WITH CURRENT 0-1KM SRH NEAR 150-200 M2/S2
AND 0-1 KM SHEAR OF 20 KTS FEEDING INTO THE AREA... QUICK SPINUPS OF
WEAK TORNADOES REMAIN POSSIBLE... ALONG WITH A THREAT FOR A FEW
STRONG STRAIGHT LINE WIND GUSTS OVER 50 MPH. CURRENT TEMPS HAVE
TRENDED VERY CLOSE TO FORECAST HOURLY TEMPS SO FEW CHANGES NEEDED TO
FORECAST HIGHS OF 78-85. -GIH

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION:
DEEP SOUTH/SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO AND
CARIBBEAN... CONTINUES TO TRANSPORT A PLUME OF HIGH MOISTURE CONTENT
AIR NORTHWARD AND INTO OUR REGION THIS MORNING... WITH THE HIGHEST
PW'S AROUND 2-2.25 INCHES ACROSS EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA. EXPECT THIS
ATMOSPHERIC RIVER OF MOIST AIR TO CONTINUE OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL
DAYS... WITH THE 2+ INCH PW'S EXPECTED TO SLOWLY SHIFT WESTWARD
ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA BY THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING... WITH
AXIS OF 2+ INCH PW'S EXPECTED TO BE ACROSS OUR PIEDMONT/WESTERN
PIEDMONT COUNTIES BY WEDNESDAY... WITH POSSIBLY A BIT DRIER AIR
WORKING INTO EASTERN PORTIONS OF OUR AREA BY TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY
AS THE WESTERN ATLANTIC RIDGE SLOWLY SHIFTS WESTWARD... ALONG WITH
THE CLOSED LOW CURRENTLY NEAR ST LOUIS. THIS WILL ALLOW THE AXIS OF
POSSIBLE HEAVY RAIN TO SHIFT WESTWARD AT BIT TODAY AND ESPECIALLY BY
WEDNESDAY. GIVEN THE DEPTH OF THE LCL TO FREEZING LEVEL... EXPECT
WARM RAIN PROCESSES WILL CONTINUE TO PROVIDE OUR AREA WITH A HEAVY
RAIN THREAT FOR TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY... WITH LOCATIONS ACROSS THE
WESTERN HALF/TWO-THIRDS STANDING THE BEST CHANCE OF SEE FLASH
FLOODING. THUS... PLAN TO EXTEND THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH ACROSS THE
WESTERN TWO-THIRDS OF THE AREA (ALL BUT THE COASTAL PLAIN
COUNTIES... NEAR I-95) UNTIL 00Z THURSDAY.

WRT CURRENT SHOWERS AND STORMS... WE MAY SEE AN UPTICK IN ACTIVITY
FROM SOUTH TO NORTH ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA (ESPECIALLY WEST) AS WE
GET CLOSER TO DAY BREAK AS ANOTHER WEAK SUBTLE S/W LIFTS NORTHWARD
FROM GA/SC THIS MORNING. THEN SUBSEQUENT WEAK IMPULSES IN THE DEEP
SOUTH/SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL TRACK A BIT FURTHER WEST...
ALONG WITH A BIT OF BACKING OF THE LOW LEVEL WINDS. THIS MAY
POSSIBLY AIDE IN THE LIFT... VIA UPSLOPE FLOW (ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE
NORTHWEST PIEDMONT LATE TODAY AND TONIGHT). IN ADDITION... TO MORE
OF AN ENHANCED FLASH FLOOD THREAT FROM THE BACKED WINDS AND 30 TO 40
KT 925 MB WINDS.... EXPECT WE WILL HAVE A WEAK TORNADO THREAT AND
DAMAGING WIND THREAT... AS DEEP LAYER SHEAR WILL AGAIN BE IN THE 25
TO 40 KT RANGE... WITH 0-1 KM SRH IN THE 125 TO 175 M2/S2 AND LOW
LCL'S THANKS TO THE TROPICAL LIKE AIRMASS. THE ONE POSSIBLE FLY IN
THE OINTMENT SO TO SPEAK... WILL BE THE AMOUNT OF DESTABILIZATION
WHICH IS ABLE TO OCCUR THIS AFTERNOON. GIVEN THE WIDESPREAD CLOUD
COVER WE MAY BE HARD PRESSED TO SEE MORE THAN 400-600 J/KG OF MLCAPE
ACROSS THE PIEDMONT/WESTERN PIEDMONT... WHERE THE 0-1 KM SRH IS
FAVORABLE. THUS... SPC HAS JUST ADDED A 2 PERCENT TOR THREAT TO THE
DAY 1 OUTLOOK. ANY TOR THREAT APPEARS TO BE BEST THIS AFTERNOON INTO
THE EVENING AS WELL... WITH LESS OF A THREAT ON WEDNESDAY.

EXPECT HIGH TEMPS TODAY WILL BE HAMPERED GREATLY BY THE CLOUD COVER
AND PRECIP. THUS... WILL GO WITH HIGHS IN THE UPPER 70S WEST TO THE
LOWER TO MID 80S FAR EAST/SOUTHEAST... WHERE WE MAY SEE A FEW MORE
BREAKS IN THE CLOUD COVER. LOWS TONIGHT ARE AGAIN EXPECTED TO BE
GENERALLY AROUND 70 TO LOWER 70S... WITH PERHAPS A FEW MID 70S
SOUTHEAST. HIGHS WEDNESDAY IN THE 80-87 DEGREE RANGE FROM WEST TO
EAST... WITH AGAIN GOOD CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS... ESPECIALLY
WEST. -BSD

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 330 AM TUESDAY...

WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY...WESTERN ATLANTIC RIDGE WILL BUILD
WESTWARD THIS PERIOD ALONG WITH ITS ASSOCIATED BERMUDA HIGH. THIS
WILL AID TO PUSH MOISTURE PLUME INITIALLY OVER THE WESTERN FRINGE OF
OUR FORECAST AREA FARTHER WEST INTO FAR WESTERN NC-EASTERN TN. WHILE
THE WARMING ALOFT AND DRIER AIR IN THE MID-UPPER LEVELS WILL HELP TO
LIMIT CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT FOR THE MOST PART...RESIDUAL MOISTURE
STILL PLENTIFUL ENOUGH TO GENERATE AT LEAST SCATTERED CONVECTION
OVER THE PIEDMONT THURSDAY AFTERNOON. EXPECT TO SEE A MORE
NOTICEABLE DOWNWARD TREND IN CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT FRIDAY AFTERNOON.

WITH CONVECTIVE COVERAGE WANING AND SLIGHTLY BETTER POTENTIAL FOR
EXTENDED PERIODS OF PARTIAL SUN...AFTERNOON TEMPS WILL BE
RETURNING TO NORMAL LEVELS. EXPECT MORE CLOUDS THAN SUN IN THE FAR
WEST THURSDAY WHICH WILL LIMIT NORMAL DIURNAL TREND. MAX TEMPS
THURSDAY LOW-MID 80S WEST TO UPPER 80S COASTAL PLAIN AND SANDHILLS.
MAX TEMPS FRIDAY MID-UPPER 80S.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 330 AM TUESDAY...

SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY...MID-UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO
BUILD INTO NC WITH THE CENTER OF MID-UPPER LEVEL ANTI-CYCLONE
PROJECTED TO BE DIRECTLY OVERHEAD SUN-MON. THIS PATTERN USUALLY
RESULTS IN HOT/HUMID CONDITIONS. WILL ADVERTISE SUCH A TREND WITH
AFTERNOON HIGH TEMPS NEAR 90-LOWER 90S EXPECTED SUNDAY-MONDAY. WHILE
TOP SOIL MOISTURE CAN HAVE AN IMPACT ON DAYTIME TEMPS...REVIEW OF
DAILY PRECIP AMOUNTS SUGGEST THAT THE HEAVY RAIN HAS BEEN
CONCENTRATED IN POCKETS. THUS EXPECT ENOUGH DRYING TO OCCUR THU-SAT
IN THE COASTAL PLAIN-SANDHILLS TO ALLOW TEMPS TO SOLIDLY REACH THE
LOWER 90S BY THE END OF THE WEEKEND. CAPPING INVERSION ASSOCIATED
THE MID-UPPER RIDGE WILL LIMIT/INHIBIT MOST CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT.
STILL...WITH SLIGHT TO MODERATE SFC BASED INSTABILITY IN
PLACE...ISOLATED CONVECTION STILL PROBABLE THIS WEEKEND.

&&

.AVIATION /12Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 440 AM TUESDAY...

IFR/LOW END MVFR CIGS HAVE DEVELOPED ACROSS THE AREA AGAIN THIS
MORNING IN THE DEEP SOUTHERLY FLOW ACROSS THE REGION... ALONG WITH
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS MOVING ACROSS THE
REGION FROM TIME TO TIME IN A GENERAL SOUTH TO NORTH FASHION. EXPECT
THE CIGS WILL BE SLOW TO RECOVER TODAY... MAYBE NOT EVEN REACHING
VFR AT KGSO/KINT/KRDU. WE SHOULD SEE PERIODS OF ENHANCED SHOWERS AND
STORMS FROM TIME TO TIME THE AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT/EARLY WEDNESDAY.
HOWEVER... CONFIDENCE IN THE TIMING OF THE BEST COVERAGE TODAY IS
STILL IN QUESTION. THUS... WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION LONG PERIODS OF
VCSH AND VCTS IN THE TAFS FROM THIS MORNING ONWARD. EXPECT LOCATIONS
THAT REACH VFR TODAY OR EARLY THIS EVENING WILL QUICKLY FALL BACK
INTO THE MVFR/IFR RANGE MID TO LATE EVENING INTO THE EARLY HOURS OF
WEDNESDAY... WITH SHOWERS/STORMS BECOMING MORE SCATTERED EAST TO
WEST.

AVIATION CONDITIONS SHOULD IMPROVE FROM EAST TO WEST STARTING
WEDNESDAY NIGHT/THURSDAY AS DRIER AIR TO OUR EAST STARTS TO PUSH
WESTWARD INTO ERN/CENTRAL NC. ALTHOUGH WE SHOULD STILL SEE A GOOD
CHANCE OF MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS LATE NIGHT-EARLY MORNING EACH DAY
THROUGH SATURDAY... ALONG WITH A CHANCE OF AFTERNOON/EVENING SHOWERS
AND STORMS.
