Area forecast discussion, Jun 20, 6:56 PM EDT, 1 hour 43 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEWPORT/MOREHEAD CITY NC
656 PM EDT FRI JUN 20 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
UNSETTLED WEATHER WILL OCCUR AS A FRONT REMAINS MEANDERS SOUTH
AND NORTH ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH SATURDAY. LOW PRESSURE MOVING
ALONG THE FRONT WILL ENHANCE THE PRECIPITATION CHANCES SATURDAY
AND SATURDAY NIGHT AS IT MOVES EAST ALONG THE FRONT. THE LOW WILL
MOVE OFF THE NORTH CAROLINA COAST ON SUNDAY ALLOWING WEAK HIGH
PRESSURE TO RIDGE INTO THE AREA EARLY NEXT WEEK. A COLD FRONT WILL
APPROACH THE AREA MID TO LATE NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/...
AS OF 645 PM FRIDAY...INCREASED POPS A BIT SW TIER NEXT SVRL HOURS
AND LOWERED POPS THRU LATE EVENING NE TIER. MOST OF THE MDLS SHOWS
BEST CVRG SRN TIER THRU EVENING WITH BAND OD SHRA/TSRA SLOWLY
SPREADING NE OVERNIGHT. WITH INSTAB SLOWLY DIMINISHING EXPECT MAIN
THREAT FROM CONVECTION OVERNIGHT WILL BE LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN.

PREV DISC...THE DIFFUSE FRONT CONTINUES TO SAG SLOWLY SOUTH ACROSS
EASTERN NC AND WILL SETTLE OVER THE SOUTHERN AREAS LATE TODAY. THE
FRONT IS BEGINNING TO INTERACT WITH LOCAL SEA BREEZE CIRCULATIONS
AND PEAK HEATING TO DEVELOP SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
EXPECT THIS ACTIVITY TO PERSIST INTO THE EVENING AND BECOME A LITTLE
BIT MORE WIDESPREAD AS A WEAK MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE MOVES ACROSS THE
REGION. WILL CONTINUE 30-50% POPS TONIGHT WITH A SLIGHT DECREASING
TREND TOWARD DAWN. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL BE IN THE LOWER 70S WITH SOME
MID 70S BEACHES.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM SATURDAY/...
AS OF 415 PM FRIDAY...ALL OF THE GUIDANCE IS INDICATING THE
POTENTIAL FOR WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AND LOCALLY
HEAVY RAINS. THE MAIN QUESTION CONCERNS THE SEVERE POTENTIAL. THE
NAM KEEPS LOWER CLOUDS OVER THE AREA MOST OF THE DAY WHICH WOULD
LIMIT INSTABILITY AS IT FORECASTS HIGHS IN THE LOWER TO MIDDLE
80S. THE GFS AND ECMWF ON THE OTHER HAND ARE INDICATING A MORE
ROBUST RECOVERY WITH HIGHS REACHING THE LOWER 90S IN THE NORMALLY
WARMER INLAND LOCATIONS. IF THIS INSTABILITY CAN BE REACHED /LI
VALUES OF -6 TO -8/ THEN THERE WOULD BE A SEVERE WEATHER CONCERN
WITH THE MAIN THREAT BEING DAMAGING WIND GUSTS DUE TO THE HIGH PW
VALUES />=2"/ AND LARGE SURFACE TEMP/DEWPOINT SPREADS. THUS SPC
CONTINUES TO HAVE OUR REGION IN A "SEE TEXT" OUTLOOK FOR SATURDAY.
LIMITING FACTORS OUTSIDE QUESTIONS REGARDING HEATING WILL BE THE
WEAK SHEAR. REGARDLESS OF THE SEVERE THREAT LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS
COULD PRODUCE SOME FLOODING AS THE MBE VECTORS INDICATE THE
POTENTIAL FOR TRAINING AND BACK BUILDING CELLS. LIKELY POPS WILL
BE CONTINUED AND WILL TREND TOWARD THE WARMER MOS FOR HIGHS.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 345 PM FRI...THE WEAK AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE OFF THE
COAST BY EARLY SUN WITH HIGH PRES BEGINNING TO BUILD IN FROM THE
NORTH. PRECIP FORECAST CONTINUES TO BE TRICKY FOR SUN AND MAINLY
DRIVEN BY HOW QUICKLY THE LOW PUSHES OFFSHORE...BUT EXPECT DRIER AIR
TO BEGIN TO PUSH LOWERING PRECIP CHANCES THROUGH THE DAY. CONTINUE
TO ADVERTISE LOWER POPS SUN NIGHT 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
RELIEF FROM THE OPPRESSIVE HEAT AND HUMIDITY. SUNDAY SHOULD SEE
HIGHS IN THE MID 80S AS PLENTIFUL LINGERING CLOUD COVER AND NE WINDS
PREVAIL DESPITE STILL-HIGH LOW LEVEL THICKNESS VALUES. HIGHS MON
EXPECTED TO BE NEAR CLIMO GENERALLY IN THE MID/UPR 80S. 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.

RIDGING BUILDS ALOFT WHILE SFC HIGH MOVES OFFSHORE BY TUE WITH
SOUTHERLY RETURN FLOW DEVELOPING BRINGING INC TEMPS AND RH VALUES A
RETURN TO LOW CONVECTION CHANCES TUE AND WED AS WE RETURN TO TYPICAL
SUMMERTIME REGIME. THE UPPER RIDGE BREAKS DOWN LATE IN THE WEEK AS A
SHORTWAVE TROUGH PUSHES ACROSS THE MID ATLANTIC BRING
INCREASED...MAINLY DIURNALLY DRIVEN CONVECTION ACROSS THE AREA FOR
THU AND FRI. SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL ALSO BRING WARMING TEMPS MID TO
LATE WEEK WITH LOW 90S RETURNING INLAND WITH LOW TO MID 80S ALONG
THE COAST.

&&

.AVIATION /23Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
SHORT TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 645 PM FRIDAY...MAINLY VFR THRU THE EVENING WITH BULK OF
CONVECTION JUST S OF MOST TAF SITES. TOUGH FCST LATER TONIGHT AS
MOIST SFC LYR AND LIGHT ONSHORE FLOW BEHIND WEAK BNDRY CONDUCIVE FOR
FOG/ST... HOWEVER MDLS SHOW PLENTY OF LOW/MID LVL MOISTURE AND AT
LEAST SCT CONVECTION SO THIS WOULD TEND TO LOWER THE FOG/ST THREAT.
FOR NOW WILL CONT PREV FCST TRENDS WITH VCSH OF VCTS AND SOME MVFR
CIGS LATE. SCT TO NUMEROUS SHRA AND TSRA LIKELY SAT WITH WEAK SRT
WAVE CROSSING AND FRONT SLOWLY LIFTING BACK N. WILL LIKELY HAVE AT
LEAST PDS OF MVFR CONDITIONS AND POSS BRIEF IFR IN CONVECTION.

LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 345 PM FRI...UNSETTLED PATTERN WILL CONTINUE INTO SAT NIGHT
WITH A FRONTAL BOUNDARY ACROSS SOUTHERN SECTIONS CONTINUING TO BRING
OCCASIONAL MVFR OR LOWER CONDITIONS IN THUNDERSHOWERS AND LOWERING
VSBYS/CIGS. THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL PUSH SOUTH OF THE AREA SUN AS
LOW PRES EXITS THE COAST BRINGING IN DRIER AIR AND REDUCING THE
PRECIP CHANCES. PRED VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED EARLY NEXT
WEEK...THOUGH SOUTHERLY FLOW RETURNS TUES BRINGING INCREASED
MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY WITH DIURNALLY DRIVEN THUNDERSTORMS.

&&

.MARINE...
SHORT TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 645 PM FRIDAY...NO SIGNIF CHANGES TO PREV FCST WITH FRONT
STALLING OVER CNTRL/SRN TIER.

PREV DISC.../NORTH OF CAPE HATTERAS/ LIGHT EASTERLY WINDS BEHIND A
WEAK COLD FRONT WILL VEER TO THE SOUTHEAST OVERNIGHT. WINDS WILL
CONTINUE TO VEER TO THE SOUTHWEST SATURDAY AND INCREASE TO 10 TO 15
KT AS THE FRONT RETREATS TO THE NORTH. /CAPE HATTERAS TO CAPE
LOOKOUT/ LIGHT EAST WINDS THIS EVENING WILL VEER TO THE SOUTHWEST
LATE AS THE AFOREMENTIONED FRONT MOVES TO THE NORTH. THE FLOW WILL
INCREASE TO 10 TO 15 KT ON SATURDAY. /SOUTH OF CAPE LOOKOUT/ WINDS
ARE FORECAST TO REMAIN 10 TO 15 KT THROUGH THE PERIOD AS THE FRONT
IS FORECAST TO REMAIN NORTH OF THE SOUTHERN WATERS.

BOTH THE WAVE WATCH AND THE NWPS WAVE MODELS FORECAST 2 TO 4 FT
SEAS ACROSS THE WATERS THROUGH SATURDAY.

LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 345 PM FRI...A WEAK AREA OF LOW PRES WILL MOVE OFF THE COAST
SAT NIGHT EARLY SUN WITH WINDS BECOMING N/NE ACROSS ALL WATERS.
SUB SCA WINDS AND SEAS EXPECTED THROUGH THE PERIOD...THOUGH NE WINDS
MAY GET CLOSE TO ADVISORY CRITERIA ON SUNDAY ACROSS THE NORTHERN
WATERS AS THE LOW PRES EXITS THE COAST AND WIND SPEEDS
INCREASE...WITH THE STRENGTH OF THE LOW DICTATING THE WIND
SPEEDS...CONTINUE TO FCST NE WINDS 10 TO 20 KTS...HIGHEST NORTH.
NWPS AND WAVEWATCH HAVE COME DOWN SLIGHTLY WITH SEAS...KEEPING
AROUND 2 TO 4 FT BUT WOULD NOT RULE OUT OCCASIONALLY BUILDING TO 5
FT NORTHERN WATERS. HIGH PRES BEGINS TO BUILD IN EARLY NEXT WEEK
WITH WINDS DIMINISHING AND VEERING EASTERLY MON/MON NIGHT...THEN TO
SOUTHEASTERLY TUESDAY AS THE HIGH SHIFTS OFFSHORE. SW FLOW AROUND 10
TO 20 KTS WILL DOMINATE WED AS THE BERMUDA HIGH STRENGTHENS OFFSHORE
