AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON NC
147 PM EDT THU MAY 21 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR SOUTHEAST NORTH
CAROLINA INTO THE LOCAL COASTAL WATERS NORTH OF CAPE FEAR THROUGH
8 PM. ANY SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL TRACK EAST AS TROUGH OF LOW
PRESSURE TRACKS EAST TOWARD THE COAST THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON. AS
LOW PRESSURE DEPARTS WELL TO OUR NORTHEAST...IT WILL DRAG A COLD
FRONT ACROSS THE AREA LATE IN THE DAY AND THIS EVENING. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL BUILD ACROSS THE EASTERN CAROLINAS FRIDAY AND
SATURDAY. THE HIGH WILL MOVE OFFSHORE SUNDAY...BRINGING A RETURN
TO HIGHER HUMIDITY BY TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 100 PM THURSDAY...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 193 HAS BEEN
ISSUED FOR SOUTHEAST NC THROUGH 8 PM. APPROACH OF A WAVE OF LOW
PRESSURE AT THE SURFACE ALONG WITH SHORTWAVE IN THE MID LEVELS
WILL COMBINE WITH HEATING OF THE DAY AND MOISTURE RICH AIR TO TO
CONTINUE TO TRIGGER SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE EASTERN
CAROLINAS LATE MORNING. THESE THUNDERSTORMS MAY CONTAIN DAMAGING
WINDS AND HAIL. CAN NOT RULE OUT AN ISOLATED TORNADO. A FAIRLY
DECENT LINE SEGMENT HAS DEVELOPED JUST WEST OF ILM CWA INTO
MARLBORO AND DARLINGTON COUNTIES EARLY THIS AFTERNOON ALIGNED WITH
BEST CONVERGENCE ALONG SFC TROUGH AS DRY AIR PUNCHES IN FROM THE
WEST AS EVIDENT ON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY.

THE MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE WILL MOVE ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA NEAR
THE TIME OF PEAK HEATING WITH THE UPPER JET IN A FAVORABLE
POSITION FOR ORGANIZED STORMS TO DEVELOP. THE BEST MOISTURE WILL
BE LOCATED TO THE SOUTH OF WARM FRONT AND CLOSER TO THE COAST WITH
DEWPOINTS UP AROUND 70. THE MARGINAL AREA OUTLINED BY SPC LINES UP
WITH BEST CONVECTIVE PARAMETERS...WITH ML CAPE CLOSE TO 1200 J/KG
AND BULK SHEAR VALUES WILL REACH AROUND 35 KT...HIGHEST ACROSS
SOUTHEAST NORTH CAROLINA. DCAPE WILL BE ABOVE 500 AS SW-WESTERLY
FLOW ALOFT WILL PROMOTE DRYING THROUGH THE MID LEVELS AND A
GREATER INVERTED V TYPE PROFILE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. THE
DOWNSLOPING WESTERLY FLOW WILL ALSO PRODUCE MORE SUBSIDENCE WHICH
COULD ACT AGAINST CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT....BUT THIS WESTERLY
FLOW ALOFT WILL ALSO ALLOW FOR GREATER VERTICAL SHEAR AND MAY SEE
A FEW LINE SEGMENTS DEVELOP WITH POTENTIAL FOR DAMAGING
WIND. CAN NOT RULE OUT SOME HAIL OR BRIEF TORNADO...AS WELL. EXPECT
THIS TO AFFECT MAINLY THE NORTHERN TIER COUNTIES OF LOCAL CWA AND
MAINLY OVER EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA. KEPT POPS HIGHEST IN THIS
AREA. POPS WILL TREND DOWN TO CHANCE AND SLIGHT CHANCE ACROSS MOST
OF SOUTH CAROLINA. ANY STORMS AND CONVECTIVE DEBRIS CLOUDS WILL
MOVE SWIFTLY OFF TO THE EAST IN A 25 TO 35 KT WESTERLY STEERING
FLOW.

THE LINGERING WEAK FRONT WHICH HAS PUSHED BACK NORTH AS A WARM
FRONT WILL GET NUDGED EAST THROUGH THE DAY AS AS SFC LOW SWEEPS
ACROSS THE CAROLINAS AND OFF SHORE BY THIS EVENING. THE BEST CHC
OF MORE WIDESPREAD CONVECTION WILL BE ALONG AND N OF THE LOW
PRESSURE TRACK....PROVIDING THE NECESSARY LIFT FOR SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS. THEREFORE AS LOW TRACKS OFF THE COAST BY EARLY THIS
EVENING ANY CONVECTION WILL COME TO AN END.

A TRAILING COLD FRONT SHOULD SWEEP OFFSHORE AS LOW PRESSURE PULLS
OFF TO THE NE INTO THIS EVE...BRINGING DRIER AND MORE STABLE AIR
INTO THE AREA OVERNIGHT. WE WILL BE ON THE SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF
ANOTHER WEAK MID-LEVEL TROUGH PIVOTING AROUND UPPER LOW ACROSS
SOUTHEAST CANADA. THIS MAY BRING AN UPTICK IN CLOUD COVER
OVERNIGHT...BUT NO RAINFALL.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 300 AM THURSDAY...FAIR WEATHER WITH LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY
IS EXPECTED THROUGH THE PERIOD AS HIGH PRESSURE SETTLES OVER THE
AREA.  MAX TEMPERATURES EACH DAY WILL BE IN THE UPPER 70S TO
LOWER 80S...THOUGH SATURDAY SHOULD BE A DEGREE OR TWO WARMER THAN
FRIDAY.  MINS FRIDAY NIGHT WILL FALL TO THE UPPER 50S TO LOWER 60S
AND MODERATE SLIGHTLY TO THE LOW TO MID 60S SATURDAY NIGHT.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 300 AM THURSDAY...SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN OVER THE
AREA THROUGH THE PERIOD AS A HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE BUILDS IN ALOFT
BY THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK.  THE RESULT WILL BE FAIR WEATHER THROUGH
THE PERIOD BUT TEMPERATURES AND HUMIDITY WILL BE ON THE RISE.  MAX
TEMPERATURES WILL MODERATE FROM LOW TO MID 80S SUNDAY TO MID 80S TO
AROUND 90 BY WEDNESDAY.  MIN TEMPERATURES WILL ALSO BE ON THE RISE
THROUGH THE PERIOD...GOING FROM LOW TO MID 60S SUNDAY NIGHT TO UPPER
60S TO LOWER 70S BY WEDNESDAY NIGHT. DRY WEATHER IS EXPECTED
THROUGH MOST OF THE PERIOD...THOUGH A SLIGHTLY WEAKER UPPER RIDGE
WEDNESDAY COULD ALLOW FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS
DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 18Z...THE HRRR MODEL CONTINUES TO SHOW MODERATE CONVECTION
OVER NORTHERN TERMINALS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON HOURS. THIS AGREES
WITH THE LATEST 12Z RUN OF THE NAM. KLBT WILL BE UNDER THE GUN
19-21Z WITH KILM 20-24Z. AT KCRE MOIST ONSHORE FLOW COULD RESULT
IN TEMPO IFR MARINE STRATUS CIGS THROUGH 20Z...POSSIBLY A FEW
HOURS LATER IF WINDS DO NOT SHIFT FURTHER TO THE SW LATER THIS
AFTERNOON. CONVECTION SHOULD MOVE OFF EARLY THIS EVENING. SW-W
WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE NORTH TONIGHT AS LOW PRESSURE PULLS OFF TO
THE NE. MUCH DRIER AIR WILL USHER IN OVERNIGHT...WITH VFR CONDITIONS
EXPECTED FOR FRIDAY WITH SCATTERED SKIES.

EXTENDED OUTLOOK...VFR. MORNING FOG POSSIBLE MONDAY AND TUESDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 100 PM THURSDAY...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 193 HAS BEEN
ISSUED FOR SOUTHEAST NC INTO THE LOCAL COASTAL WATERS NORTH OF
CAPE FEAR THROUGH 8 PM. SW WINDS 15 TO 20 KT AHEAD OF A COLD
FRONT...WILL SHIFT TO THE NW THIS EVE...AND THEN N OVERNIGHT AS
LOW PRESSURE TO OUR N MOVES FURTHER AWAY. A DEVELOPING NORTHERLY
SURGE WILL INCREASE WINDS TO AROUND 20 KT LATE TONIGHT AND WE WILL
BE NEAR SMALL CRAFT SHOULD EXERCISE CAUTION LEVELS. SEAS WILL BE 2
TO 4 FT TODAY WITH SOME 5 FT SEAS ACROSS THE OUTERMOST WATERS LATE
TONIGHT. WINDS AND SEAS WILL BE LOCALLY HIGHER IN SCATTERED TO
NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS TODAY AND THIS EVE.

SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 300 AM THURSDAY...LOOKS LIKE A QUIET PERIOD ON THE WATERS WITH
NE WINDS OF 10 TO 15 KT FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY THAT WILL BECOME MORE
EASTERLY BY SATURDAY NIGHT.  SEAS OF 3 FEET OR LESS ARE EXPECTED
THROUGH THE PERIOD.

LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 300 AM THURSDAY...SUMMER LIKE CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE ON THE
WATERS WITH SE WINDS OF 10 TO 15 KT EXPECTED THROUGH THE FORECAST
PERIOD WITH SEAS OF 3 FT OR LESS.
