Area forecast discussion, Aug 12, 8:30 PM EDT, 35 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
830 PM EDT TUE AUG 12 2014

.SYNOPSIS...A COLD FRONT WILL ENTER CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA LATE
TONIGHT...EXITING THE COASTAL PLAIN COUNTIES EARLY WEDNESDAY
MORNING. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO OUR REGION FROM THE WEST
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON...AND MAINTAIN ITS INFLUENCE ON OUR WEATHER
THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 248 PM TUESDAY...

WARM FRONT LIFTING NORTHWARD ACROSS THE REGION... WITH LOWER 80S
TEMP/LOWER 70S DEWPOINTS NEAR THE VA BORDER AND MID 80S/70S
DEWPOINTS NEAR THE SC BORDER. LOW CLOUDS FROM THIS MORNING HAVE
BROKEN AND LIFTED... ALLOWING INCREASE IN SURFACE HEATING AND
CONSEQUENT INCREASING INSTABILITY WITH SBCAPE OF 2000 TO 2500 J/KG
ACROSS THE REGION. RADAR SHOWS WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS
BEGINNING TO DEVELOP MOSTLY IN THE WESTERN PARTS OF THE CWA. EXPECT
SHOWERS WILL BECOME MORE NUMEROUS IN THE AFTERNOON AS THE TROUGH
APPROACHES...  AND MID LEVEL HEIGHTS BEGIN TO FALL. HIRES MODEL RUNS
FOLLOW THIS TREND WELL... DEVELOPING SCATTERED ACTIVITY IN THE
WEST... BEFORE SPREADING ACROSS THE AREA AND DIMINISHING/MOVING
EASTWARD BY 06Z. BEST SHEAR AND LIFT REMAINS TO THE NORTH WITH THE
JET...  AND THE PREDOMINATE THUNDERSTORM MODE WILL BE SINGLE
CELL/PULSE TYPE... WITH MARGINAL SHEAR OF 20-25 KTS POSSIBLY
SUPPORTING A FEW MORE ORGANIZED CLUSTERS/MULTICELLS WHICH MAY
GENERATE A FEW STRONG WIND GUSTS. WITH PWATS NEAR 2 INCHES ACROSS
THE AREA... HEAVY RAIN MAY CAUSE URBAN/POOR DRAINAGE FLOODING.

FRONT WILL CROSS THE AREA OVERNIGHT... ENTERING INTO THE TRIAD
AROUND 03Z... AND NEAR THE NC COAST BY 12Z. FLOW BEHIND THE FRONT
WILL BECOME NORTHWESTERLY... WITH DRIER AIR BEGINNING TO ENTER THE
AREA BY DAYBREAK... AND LEADING TO A DECREASE IN CLOUD COVER. LOWS
IN THE MID 60S TO LOW 70S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 315 PM TUESDAY...

A TRANQUIL WEATHER PATTERN EXPECTED IN THE SHORT TERM. TEMPERATURES
WILL REMAIN NEAR OR BELOW NORMAL.

A L/W TROUGH ANCHORED BY AN UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER SOUTHERN
ONTARIO/QUEBEC WILL EXTEND SOUTHWARD INTO THE CAROLINAS THROUGH
FRIDAY. THE LEAD S/W AND ATTENDANT SURFACE COLD FRONT PROJECTED TO
EXIT OUR COASTAL PLAIN COUNTIES EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING. WIND
PROFILE OFF MODEL SOUNDINGS DEPICT A DEEP WLY FLOW WITH A NW FLOW IN
THE LOWEST 5000FT OF THE ATMOSPHERE. THIS SET-UP SHOULD RESULT IN A
DISSIPATION/DIMINISHING OF TEH CLOUD COVERAGE WEST-TO-EAST EARLY
WEDNESDAY...LEADING TO MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES BY LATE MORNING/MID DAY.
DOWNSLOPE COMPONENT OF LOW LEVEL WIND WILL NEGATE/OFFSET INITIAL
CAA. WITH TEMPS STARTING OUT IN THE UPPER 60S NW-MID 70S SE...A 15-
18 DEGREE DIURNAL TEMP TREND RESULTS IN MAX TEMPS IN THE MID 80S NW
TO AROUND 90 FAR SOUTH-SE. IT WILL BE NOTICEABLY LESS HUMID ACROSS
THE PIEDMONT BY AFTERNOON...AND IN THE SANDHILLS AND COASTAL PLAIN
AS DRIER AIR GRADUALLY MIXES THROUGH THE COLUMN.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT WILL FEATURE A CANADIAN HIGH
PRESSURE SYSTEM ANCHORED OVER THE MS VALLEY EXTENDING EAST INTO NC.
THIS WEATHER SYSTEM IN TANDEM WITH THE BASE OF TEH L/W TROUGH OVER
OUR REGION WILL MAINTAIN DRY AND SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES.
GFS HINTS AT THE POSSIBILITY OF A FEW SHOWERS FRIDAY ASSOCIATED WITH
THE PASSAGE OF A VORT MAX ROUNDING THE BASE OF THE TROUGH. HOWEVER
GFSBUFR SOUNDINGS INDICATE A SUBSIDENCE INVERSION IN THE 850-
700MB...ESSENTIALLY CAPPING THE ATMOSPHERE. THUS...WILL MAINTAIN A
DRY FORECAST THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT.

LOW LEVEL THICKNESSES THROUGH THE PERIOD AVERAGE 10-15M BELOW
NORMAL. THIS SUGGEST MAX TEMPS IN THE LOW-MID 80S WITH OVERNIGHT
TEMPS NEAR 60-LOWER 60S. THE NORMAL COLDER LOCATIONS WILL LIKELY SEE
MIN TEMPS IN THE UPPER 50S FRIDAY MORNING (UNLESS VEIL OF HIGH
CLOUDS OCCURS...POSSIBLY CAUSED BY OROGRAPHIC ENHANCEMENT/MOUNTAIN
WAVE...THOUGH MID LEVEL WINDS APPEAR A TAD TOO WEAK AT THIS TIME).

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 315 PM TUESDAY...

SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL SETTLE OVERHEAD SATURDAY THEN SLOWLY
WEAKEN AS L/W TROUGH WEAKENS AND LIFTS NWD. THIS WILL ALLOW A WEAK
RETURN OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE BY LATE SATURDAY AND MORE SO SUNDAY
INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. THIS WILL LEAD TO MIXTURE OF SUN/CLOUDS BUT
ANY CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY THIS WEEKEND WILL BE ISOLATED...AND CONFINED
TO NEAR THE SEABREEZE...AND EXITING OFF THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF
WESTERN NC.  THREAT APPEARS HIGH ENOUGH TO MENTION A SLIGHT CHANCE
POP SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND AGAIN SUNDAY AFTERNOON OVER THE SE
COUNTIES IN VICINITY OF THE SEABREEZE. THREAT STILL APPEARS TOO LOW
TO MENTION A SLIGHT CHANCE OVER THE WESTERN PIEDMONT AT THIS TIME.

ENOUGH MOISTURE/DESTABILIZATION SHOULD EXISTS BY MONDAY INTO TUESDAY
FOR AT LEAST A SLIGHT CHANCE OF CONVECTION IN TEH AFTERNOON-EARLY
EVENING HOURS. BOTH THE GFS AND ECMWF SUGGEST A S/W IN THE NORTHERN
STREAM TRAVERSING ACROSS THE OH VALLEY MONDAY WITH THE ECMWF LIFTING
THIS BALL OF ENERGY E-NE INTO THE MID ATLANTIC/SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
WHILE THE GFS (WHICH IS FASTER BY 18 HOURS)...MAINTAINS A DECENT
SHEAR AXIS INTO NC MONDAY AFTERNOON-MONDAY NIGHT. IF THIS WERE TO
VERIFY...THIS WOULD WARRANT A MUCH HIGH POP.

TEMPS SATURDAY THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK WILL RETURN TO NEAR OR
SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL LEVELS.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 830 PM TUESDAY...

A CLUSTER OF SHOWERS AND TSTMS ARE CURRENTLY MOVING ACROSS CENTRAL
NC ATTM...RESULTING IN IFR CONDITIONS IN AND NEAR THESE STORMS.
ELSEWHERE...VFR OR HIGH MVFR CIGS ARE BEING REPORTED ACROSS MUCH OF
CENTRAL NC.  LOOK FOR THIS TO CONTINUE UNTIL THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH
LATER OVERNIGHT. FLT CONDITIONS WILL QUICKLY IMPROVE AFTER THE FRONT
MOVES THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING AFT SUNRISE.

VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD CONTINUE THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK AS
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE NORTHWEST OVER THE AREA.
