AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
638 PM EDT TUE APR 29 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A STRONG AND SLOW MOVING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER THE
CENTRAL PORTION OF THE US WILL BRING UNSETTLED WEATHER TO CENTRAL NC
UNTIL EARLY THURSDAY. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE SLOWLY EASTWARD THROUGH
THE REGION THURSDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT. DRIER WEATHER IS
EXPECTED HEADING INTO THE WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 635 PM TUESDAY...

UPDATE....
HAVE REMOVED THE WESTERN PIEDMONT COUNTIES FROM THE TORNADO
WATCH. CONVECTION ALONG THE I-95 CORRIDOR HAS EFFECTIVELY BLOCKED
THE WARM FRONT FROM MOVING FURTHER INLAND...AND THE PRIMARY
THREAT SHOULD REMAIN FOCUSED EAST OF US HWY 1.

THE WEDGE FRONT HAS BEEN SLOWLY RETREATING TO THE NORTH AND WEST
TODAY...THOUGH IT HAS ONLY JUST NOW REACHED THE SANDHILLS AND
SOUTHERN PIEDMONT.  SOUTH OF THE FRONT...MLCAPE HAS INCREASED TO
1000-2000 J/KG.  ALONG AND JUST NORTH OF THE FRONT WHERE WINDS
SHARPLY BACK TO EAST-NORTHEAST... 0-1KM SRH QUICKLY INCREASES ABOVE
200 MS/S2...AND HODOGRAPH CURVATURE IS FORECAST TO INCREASE THROUGH
THE EVENING AS THE LOW LEVEL SOUTHERLY FLOW CONTINUES TO STRENGTHEN.
CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT HAS BEEN LIMITED SO FAR BUT SHOULD ALSO
INCREASE OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS.

LATER TONIGHT...CONVECTION EXPECTED TO DEVELOP OVER
MISSISSIPPI/ALABAMA WILL SPREAD EAST AND POSSIBLY EXPAND TO THE
NORTHEAST AS IT APPROACHES THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS.  THE WEDGE
AIRMASS SHOULD CONTINUE TO ERODE...THOUGH ITS UNCERTAIN HOW LONG IT
WILL TAKE TO SCOUR OUT THE NORTHWEST PIEDMONT.  THE NAM...DEPICTS AT
LEAST SOME WEAK INSTABILITY WORKING NORTH THROUGH THE PIEDMONT ALONG
THE BOUNDARY.  WITH CONVECTION EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO THE FOOTHILLS
AND PIEDMONT OVERNIGHT...WITHIN THE BELT OF STRONG MID-LEVEL FLOW
AND SHEAR AHEAD OF THE UPPER TROUGH...THERE MAY BE ADDITIONAL
SUPERCELLS EMBEDDED WITH THE CLUSTER OF STORMS AD A TORNADO THREAT
IN THE VICINITY OF THE WEDGE FRONT OVERNIGHT.  IN ADDITION...THE
POTENTIAL STILL EXISTS FOR 2 TO 3 INCHES OF RAINFALL AS THE LOW
LEVEL JET SURGES NORTH WITH PW OVER 1.5 INCHES AND STORMS TRAIN OVER
THE SAME AREAS.  LOWS IN THE 60S.

WEDNESDAY... HI-RES SIMULATIONS CONTINUE TO SHOW VARYING SOLUTIONS
REGARDING THE REDEVELOPMENT OF STORMS ALONG THE REMNANT CONVERGENCE
ZONE FROM OVERNIGHT CONVECTION...SO THERE IS STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY
AS TO HOW EARLY MORNING PRECIP WILL IMPACT DESTABILIZATION.
HOWEVER... THE INGREDIENTS FOR WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE IN
PLACE WITH STRONG 50KT DEEP LAYER SHEAR AND A WARM MOIST AIRMASS IN
PLACE OVER MOST OF CENTRAL NC...ALONG WITH CYCLONIC CURVED
HODOGRAPHS SUPPORTIVE OF SUPERCELLS AND A CONDITIONAL TORNADO RISK.
HIGHS WILL RANGE FROM THE MID 70S WEST TO LOWER 80S EAST.

CONVECTION SHOULD PUSH EAST DURING THE EVENING HOURS...WHILE THE
PRIMARY COLD FRONT REMAINS WEST OF THE AREA AND DOESNT PUSH INTO THE
WESTERN PIEDMONT UNTIL THURSDAY.  POPS WILL TREND DOWNWARD AFTER
MIDNIGHT...WITH LOWS AGAIN MOSTLY IN THE 60S.

 &&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 300 PM TUESDAY...

FOR THU/THU NIGHT... A PREFRONTAL TROUGH WILL HAVE SHIFTED EASTWARD
INTO THE COASTAL AREAS OF NC BY THU MORNING... WITH THE PRIMARY COLD
FRONT TRACKING SLOWLY EASTWARD THROUGH THE CWA. FAST AND BROADLY
CYCLONIC SW MID LEVEL FLOW WILL PERSIST OVER NC... AROUND THE CLOSED
VORTEX OVER THE GREAT LAKES SHIFTING NORTHWARD... AND DEEP MOISTURE
IS LIKELY TO REMAIN IN PLACE FROM ROUGHLY HIGHWAY 1 EAST EARLY IN
THE DAY. THIS WILL MEAN A LINGERING THREAT OF SHOWERS HERE TO START
THE DAY... TRENDING GRADUALLY OUT OF THE AREA FROM WNW TO ESE
THROUGH THE DAY AS MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE ENERGY RIDING NE OVER THE
GREAT LAKES HELPS PUSH THE SURFACE FRONT TO OUR SE BY THU EVENING...
WITH A SUBSEQUENT SLOW CLEARING OF CLOUDS ALSO FROM WNW TO ESE AS
COOLER AND MORE STABLE AIR WORKS IN VIA A NOSE OF HIGH PRESSURE
STRETCHING FROM TX TO THE NE. HIGHS 75-81. LOWS FROM 49 NW TO 57
EAST.

FOR FRI/FRI NIGHT: THE MID LEVEL TROUGH AXIS TO OUR WEST WILL EASE
EASTWARD THROUGH FRI NIGHT... AND THE ENSUING SHIFT OF MID LEVEL
WINDS FROM SW TO A MORE WESTERLY DIRECTION WILL ALLOW FOR SLOWLY
DECREASING MOISTURE DEPTH AND ARRIVAL OF DRIER AIR THROUGH THE
COLUMN FROM WEST TO EAST. THE PASSAGE OVERHEAD OF WEAK LOW-MID LEVEL
ENERGY TRACKING NORTHEASTWARD ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE APPROACHING
TROUGH SHOULD BRING A SHOT OF GREATER CLOUD COVER ACROSS CENTRAL/ERN
NC DURING FRI AFTERNOON. THE GFS/NAM GENERATE SOME LIGHT PRECIP WITH
THESE PERTURBATIONS OVER THE ERN CWA... BUT DON'T EXPECT THIS TO
AMOUNT TO MUCH GIVEN THE ENCROACHMENT OF DRIER AIR ESPECIALLY IN THE
LOWER LEVELS. WILL LEAVE IN JUST A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS IN THE
SE HALF FRI. EXPECT FAIR SKIES FRI NIGHT AS THE TROUGH AXIS SHIFTS
OVERHEAD LATE. BELOW NORMAL THICKNESSES WILL TRANSLATE TO SLIGHTLY
COOL HIGHS OF 68-72 FRI. LOWS 47-52. -GIH

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 325 PM TUESDAY...

MAY STILL SEE SOME LINGERING CLOUDS IN THE COASTAL PLAIN SAT MORNING
AS THE MID LEVEL TROUGH AXIS FINALLY SHIFTS TO OUR EAST... BUT
OTHERWISE EXPECT A DRY AND SEASONABLE AIR MASS TO START THE WEEKEND.
A WEST-EAST ORIENTED BACKDOOR FRONT TO OUR NORTH WILL INCH SOUTHWARD
TOWARD THE NRN NC BORDER SUNDAY... AS A STRONG MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE
TROUGH TRAVERSES THE NORTHEAST STATES... BUT THE FRONT SHOULD HOLD
TO OUR NORTH THROUGH SUNDAY WITH SOMEWHAT MILDER AIR SPREADING INTO
NC FROM THE WEST. THE AFOREMENTIONED SHORTWAVE TROUGH IS LIKELY TO
DEEPEN AS A CLOSED VORTEX OVER THE NEW ENGLAND COAST SUN NIGHT THEN
WOBBLE VERY SLOWLY EASTWARD THROUGH TUE... AND THIS WILL ALLOW THE
SURFACE FRONTAL ZONE TO STRENGTHEN AND BECOME NEARLY STATIONARY FROM
THE OH VALLEY ACROSS NE NC.... KEEPING US ON THE WARM SIDE OF THE
BOUNDARY THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK. IN THIS SORT OF A NORTHWEST FLOW
PATTERN THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR UPSTREAM CONVECTION OVER THE OH
VALLEY TO TRACK SOUTHEASTWARD ACROSS NC... AND FOR NOW WILL LEAVE IN
A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS FOR MON/TUE. TEMPS CLOSE TO
SEASONAL NORMALS (WHICH IS LOW-MID 50S FOR LOWS AND MID-UPPER 70S
FOR HIGHS). -GIH

&&

.AVIATION /00Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 1255 PM TUESDAY...

SEVERAL AVIATION CHALLENGES EXIST OVER THE NEXT 24-36 HRS. FIRST...
A FRONTAL ZONE SITS ACROSS SRN NC. NORTH OF THIS BOUNDARY...
IFR/MVFR VSBYS WITH LIFR CIGS PERSIST AT INT/GSO/RDU... WHERE A
STABLE AIR MASS AND COOL ENE SURFACE FLOW PERSISTS. THESE CONDITIONS
ARE STARTING TO BREAK AT RWI WHERE VSBYS ARE NOW VFR WITH IFR CIGS.
AND AT FAY... WHICH IS JUST SOUTH OF THE FRONT... MUCH WARMER AND
MORE HUMID AIR RESIDES WITH VFR CONDITIONS. THE WARM FRONTAL ZONE IS
EXPECTED TO SHIFT VERY SLOWLY NORTHWARD... AND WE'LL SEE SURFACE
WINDS AT FAY SHIFT RAPIDLY AROUND TO SOUTHERLY AND STRENGTHEN LATER
THIS AFTERNOON... WHILE THIS WIND SHIFT FROM A LIGHT EASTERLY WIND
TO STRONGER SOUTHERLY WIND WILL OCCUR LATER AT RWI/RDU/GSO/INT THIS
EVENING (IN THAT ORDER). SCATTERED STORMS ARE LIKELY TO AFFECT FAY
BY MID AFTERNOON. RWI/RDU/GSO/INT SHOULD ALSO SEE SOME STORMS
STARTING LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT... ALTHOUGH TIMING IS
HIGHLY UNCERTAIN AND THAT PRECLUDES MENTIONING A PREVAILING OR TEMPO
MENTION OF THUNDER AT THIS TIME AT THESE TERMINALS. CIGS ARE
EXPECTED TO SLOWLY RISE TO MVFR AT THESE NORTHERN SITES THROUGH THIS
EVENING... FIRST AT RDU/RWI THEN LASTLY AT GSO/INT WHERE THE STABLE
AIR WILL HOLD ON THE LONGEST. MVFR TO VFR CONDITIONS WILL BE SHORT
LIVED AS IFR/LIFR STRATUS IS EXPECTED TO REDEVELOP TONIGHT...
HOWEVER CONFIDENCE IN THIS IS VERY LOW... GIVEN THAT IF THERE ARE
ONGOING SHOWERS/STORMS TONIGHT... CIGS MAY GET NO WORSE THAN MVFR.
LLWS CRITERIA ARE UNLIKELY TO BE MET... HOWEVER WINDS WILL BE
SHIFTING (FROM SSE OR S TO SSW) AND INCREASING WITH HEIGHT... MOST
DRAMATICALLY TONIGHT INTO WED... WITH 35-40 KT WINDS FROM THE SW
AROUND 2 KFT AGL. ANY SUB-VFR CIGS OVERNIGHT ARE EXPECTED TO TREND
UP TOWARD VFR TOWARD THE END OF THE TAF VALID PERIOD.

LOOKING BEYOND 18Z WED... NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND STRONG STORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP WED AFTERNOON... HOWEVER DETAILS IN LOCATION AND
TIMING ARE UNKNOWN AT THIS TIME. SUSTAINED STRONG/GUSTY WINDS ARE
LIKELY THROUGH WED EVENING... ALONG WITH POTENTIAL MVFR CONDITIONS
IN SHOWERS/STORMS. AS A COLD FRONT SHIFTS SLOWLY EASTWARD THROUGH
CENTRAL NC... CONDITIONS WILL TREND TO VFR AT INT/GSO 12Z-14Z THU...
AT RDU 14Z-16Z... AND AT FAY/RWI 16Z-18Z... WITH SURFACE WINDS
SHIFTING TO WSW THEN WNW THROUGH THU AFTERNOON/NIGHT. VFR CONDITIONS
LIKELY TO HOLD THROUGH SUNDAY. -GIH
