What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Newport/Morehead City, NC wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 19, 9:49 PM EDT, 44 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 19, 9:49 PM EDT, 44 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEWPORT/MOREHEAD CITY NC
949 PM EDT THU JUN 19 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A BACKDOOR COLD FRONT WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION TONIGHT. THE
FRONT WILL REMAIN STATIONARY OVER THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE AREA
THROUGH FRIDAY AND SATURDAY WHILE A LOW PRESSURE AREA FORMS ALONG
IT. THE LOW WILL MOVE OFF THE NORTH CAROLINA COAST ON SUNDAY. WEAK
HIGH PRESSURE WILL RIDGE INTO THE AREA EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
AS OF 945 PM THU...INCREASED POPS AS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
BLOSSOMED ACROSS THE AREA. GOING WITH CATEGORICAL TO LIKELY POPS
ACROSS THE CENTRAL CWA WITH CONTINUED CHANCE POPS SOUTHEAST. A
MINOR SEVERE WEATHER THREAT WILL CONTINUE THIS EVENING. HAVE
ISSUED SEVERAL WARNINGS FOR SEVERE HAIL AND WINDS WITH THE STORMS.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...VERY WARM/MOIST LOW LEVELS WITH HIGHS IN
THE MIDDLE 90SF AND DEWPOINTS AROUND 70F ARE TOPPED BY 500 MB
TEMPS AROUND -10C YIELDING VERY UNSTABLE LI'S OF -7 TO -10C. THE
HOT/MOIST AIR AND COOLER AIR ALOFT IS HELPING TO PRODUCE
SIGNIFICANT CAPES OF 3500-4000 J/KG. PW VALUES ARE FORECAST TO
INCREASE TO >=1.75"BY EVENING AND WILL AID IN PRODUCING
SIGNIFICANT DCAPE VALUES >1000 J/KG SUPPORTING A THREAT FOR
DAMAGING WIND GUSTS. THIS WIND GUST THREAT IS FURTHER REINFORCED
BY FORECAST SOUNDINGS WHICH INDICATE LARGE SURFACE TEMP/DEWPOINT
SPREADS AND AN INVERTED "V" SIGNATURE WITH FORECAST WINDEX VALES
OF 65 KT! LIMITING FACTOR WILL BE THE LACK OF ANY SIGNIFICANT
SHEAR WHICH WILL LIMIT STORM ORGANIZATION. THE LACK OF SHEAR MAY
BE ABLE TO BE OVERCOME BY THE LARGE CAPE AND BOUNDARY INTERACTIONS
THOUGH. SPC HAS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE IN EASTERN NC TO VICINITY
OF THE PAMLICO RIVER WITH THE THREAT LIKELY EXTENDING EVEN A
LITTLE SOUTH OF THAT MAINLY TO AREAS NORTH OF HIGHWAY 70. EXPECT
ACTIVITY TO INCREASE IN COVERAGE AFTER 22Z WHEN A CONVECTIVELY
INDUCED VORTICITY MAXIMUM MOVE SOUTHEAST INTO THE AREA. IN
ADDITION TO THE SEVERE THREAT MBE FORECASTS OFF BUFKIT SUPPORT A
THREAT FOR LOCALLY VERY HEAVY RAINS WITH THE SLOW MOVING AND BACK-
BUILDING CELLS LIKELY.

THE BACKDOOR FRONT TO THE NORTH WILL CONTINUE TO SINK SOUTHWARD
TONIGHT STALLING ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE AREA LATE.
THINK PRECIPITATION CHANCES WILL TAPER OFF RAPIDLY AFTER 06Z BUT
WITH THE FRONT IN VICINITY A SMALL RISK FOR ADDITIONAL SHOWERS OR
STORMS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE NIGHT. THINK OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL
BE 70-75 IN MOST LOCATIONS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM FRIDAY/...
AS OF 335 PM THU...MAIN QUESTION FOR FRIDAY IS HOW MUCH
PRECIPITATION WILL OCCUR. NOT LOOKING NEARLY AS UNSTABLE DESPITE
PRESENCE OF THE FRONT OVER THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE AREA WITH
WARMER TEMPS ALOFT AND SLIGHTLY COOLER SURFACE TEMPERATURES. THINK
BEST CHANCE FOR CONVECTION WILL BE LATE IN THE DAY AND ESPECIALLY
WEST OF HIGHWAY 17 SO WILL CAP POPS AT 30%. A BETTER THREAT WILL
EXIST FRIDAY NIGHT AS LOW PRESSURE FORMS ALONG THE BOUNDARY. WILL
FORECAST HIGHS AROUND 90 AND IT WILL BE CONTINUED HUMID WITH
DEWPOINTS IN THE UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 330 PM THU...A FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL BE STALLED ACROSS THE
AREA FRI NIGHT AND SAT WITH A WEAK AREA OF LOW PRES MOVING ALONG IT.
THESE FEATURES WILL PROVIDE A FOCUSING MECHANISM FOR ADDITIONAL
SHOWER/TSTM DEVELOPMENT. PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH
PWATS PROGGED TO BE AROUND 2-2.25" SUGGESTING A THREAT FOR LOCALIZED
HEAVY RAIN/MINOR FLOODING. THE AIRMASS REMAIN MODERATELY UNSTABLE
BUT LIMITED SHEAR AND WEAK MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES WILL LIKELY LIMIT
THE SEVERITY OF STORMS.

PRECIP FORECAST CONTINUES TO BE TRICKY FOR SUN...AS A SLOWER EXITING
OF SFC LOW PRES WOULD KEEP SOME SHOWERS IN THE AREA SUN MORNING.
NCEP ENSEMBLE MEMBERS DIVERGE WITH PLACEMENT OF SFC LOW
POSITIONING...AND ECM ENSMOS ALSO INDICATING WIDE SPREAD IN POP
DISTRIBUTION SO HAVE LEFT A CHANCE POP IN FCST THROUGH THE
DAY...HIGHEST SOUTH AND EAST.

CONTINUE TO ADVERTISE LOWER POPS LATER SUN THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK
AS NE WINDS DEVELOP AND HIGH PRES RIDGES INTO THE AREA FROM THE NE
BRINGING A DRIER AIRMASS INTO THE REGION. THIS WILL ALSO BRING A
RELIEVE TO THE OPPRESSIVE HOT TEMPS. SUNDAY SHOULD SEE HIGHS IN THE
MID 80S AS PLENTIFUL LINGERING CLOUD COVER AND NE WINDS PREVAIL
DESPITE STILL-HIGH LOW LEVEL THICKNESS VALS. MON WILL BE DRY AS NE
FLOW CONTINUES TO BRING LOWER TD'S. HIGHS SHOULD BE NEAR CLIMO
GENERALLY IN THE MID/UPR 80S BUT MUCH DRIER. SUN NIGHT AND MON NIGHT
WILL SEE COOLER OVERNIGHT LOWS WITH READINGS IN THE 60S AWAY FROM
THE COAST...LOW 70S ON THE IMMEDIATE COAST. HIGH MOVES OFFSHORE BY
TUE WITH RETURN SW FLOW DEVELOPING AND BRINGING INC TEMPS AND RH
VALS. A RETURN TO SMALL CONVECTION CHANCES TUE THROUGH MID WEEK AS
WE RETURN TO TYPICAL SUMMERTIME REGIME.

&&

.AVIATION /02Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
SHORT TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 700 PM THU...EXPECTING PRIMARILY VFR CONDITIONS OUTSIDE ANY
SCATTERED STRONG CONVECTION THROUGH THIS EVENING AHEAD OF
SOUTHWARD MOVING BACK DOOR COLD FRONT. COULD SEE SOME LIGHT FOG
EARLY FRIDAY MORNING ESPECIALLY IN AREAS THAT RECEIVE RAINFALL
THIS EVENING AS WINDS MAY BRIEFLY DECOUPLE BUT EXPECTING ANY FOG
TO BE PATCHY AND SHALLOW. THE MODELS ARE INDICATING MAINLY DRY
WEATHER FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON BEFORE THE DIURNAL
CONVECTION CYCLE PICKS UP AGAIN LATER IN THE DAY.

LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 345 PM THU...A MORE UNSETTLED PATTERN CONTINUES THROUGH THE
WEEKEND AS A LOW PRES AREA AND FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL BE IN E NC.
OCNL MVFR OR LOWER CONDITIONS POSSIBLE THIS WEEKEND IN
THUNDERSHOWERS AND LOWERING VSBYS/CIGS. WINDS WILL BECOME NE ON
SUN AS LOW PRES EXITS THE COAST. DRIER FOR MON INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK AS HIGH PRES WILL BE IN CONTROL.

&&

.MARINE...
SHORT TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 945 PM THU...ONLY CHANGES THIS UPDATE WAS TO INCREASE CHANCE
OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE WATERS. WILL CONTINUE THE
MARGINAL ADVISORY FOR THE CENTRAL WATERS TONIGHT FOR WIND GUSTS TO
25 KT AND A BRIEF PERIOD OF 6 FT SEAS. DIAMOND BUOY IS REPORTING 5
FOOT SEAS BUT CANNOT RULE OUT A FEW 6 FOOTERS NEARBY. OTHERWISE
MARINERS CAN EXPECT MODERATE SW FLOW OF 15 TO 20 KT AND 3 TO 5 FT
SEAS AHEAD OF A SOUTHWARD MOVING (BACK DOOR) COLD FRONT. THIS
FRONT WILL STALL OVER THE SOUTHERN WATERS ON FRIDAY WITH THE FLOW
DIMINISHING TO SW 10 TO 15 KT SOUTH OF FRONT AND WINDS BECOMING
NORTHERLY 10 TO 15 KT OVER THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL WATERS. SEAS
WILL SUBSIDE TO 2 TO 3 FT BY LATE FRIDAY.

LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 345 PM THU...A FRONTAL BOUNDARY FRONT WILL REMAIN STALLED
ACROSS THE SOUTHERN WATERS FRIDAY NIGHT WITH A WEAK OF LOW PRES
TRACKING ALONG THE FRONT SAT...THEN MOVE OFF THE COAST EARLY SUN.
NORTH OF THE FRONT WINDS WILL BE NE TO E...WHILE TO THE SOUTH THE
WINDS WILL BE SW. WHERE EXACTLY THE FRONT SETS UP WILL DICTATE THE
WIND DIRECTION. SUB SCA WINDS SEAS EXPECTED THROUGH THE
PERIOD...THOUGH NE WINDS MAY GET CLOSE TO ADVISORY CRITERIA ON
SUNDAY ACROSS THE NORTHERN WATERS AS A LOW PRES EXITS THE COAST
AND WIND SPEEDS INCREASE. DEPENDING ON THE STRENGTH OF THE LOW
WILL DICTATE WIND SPEEDS. CONTINUE TO FCST NE WINDS 15 TO 20 KTS
WITH SEAS 3 TO 5 FEET NORTHERN/CENTRAL WATERS AND 10-15 KTS AND 2
TO 4 FEET SOUTH. HIGH PRES BEGINS TO BUILD ON MON WITH WINDS
DIMINISHING AND VEERING EASTERLY THROUGH SUN NIGHT...THEN TO
SOUTHEASTERLY TUESDAY AS THE HIGH SHIFTS OFFSHORE. SW FLOW WILL
DOMINATE WED AND THURS AS THE BERMUDA HIGH STRENGTHENS OFFSHORE.
