AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEWPORT/MOREHEAD CITY NC
411 PM EDT FRI JUN 26 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A WEAK FRONT WILL MOVE SOUTH INTO EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA THIS
EVENING, THEN MOVE BACK NORTH TONIGHT. A STRONGER COLD FRONT WILL
MOVE THROUGH SUNDAY MORNING THAT WILL BECOME STATIONARY SOUTH OF
THE REGION THROUGH MONDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 410 PM FRIDAY...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 361 IS NOW IN
EFFECT UNTIL 1000 PM EDT.

HIGH RESOLUTION AND GLOBAL GUIDANCE INDICATE A WEAK FRONTAL
BOUNDARY WILL SHIFT SOUTH ACROSS THE NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE MHX
CWA LATER THIS AFTERNOON. LATEST RUNS OF THE HRRR SUGGESTS AN MCS
WILL DEVELOP ACROSS THE NORTHERN PIEDMONT AND MOVE INTO EASTERN NC
LATER THIS EVENING. 12Z NAM DOES NOT INDICATE THE MCS FEATURE BUT
INDICATES DECENT CONVECTIVE COVERAGE ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONT
SINKING SOUTH INTO EASTERN NC. WE HAVE REACHED CONVECTIVE TEMP
ACROSS MANY INLAND LOCATIONS BUT LACK A TRIGGER AND ALSO SUFFER
FROM SUBSIDENCE IN THE WAKE OF THIS MORNINGS SHORTWAVE/SQUALL LINE
THAT MOVED THROUGH THE OBX. EXPECT CONVECTION TO DEVELOP AFTER
19-20Z DUE TO A COMBINATION OF THE FRONT, SEABREEZE, AND LEFTOVER
BOUNDARIES FROM OVERNIGHT CONVECTION. TRIED TO BETTER PINPOINT
TIMING OF CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON AND TRENDED POPS A BIT HIGHER
FOR THE HWY 64 AND NORTH AREAS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONT SAGGING
INTO THE AREA. SOME ISOLATED CONVECTION BEGINNING TO DEVELOP IN
RAH CWA SLOWLY PUSHING EAST BUT STRUGGLING TO SEE MUCH DEVELOPMENT
ALONG THE SEABREEZE JUST YET. NUCAPS SOUNDINGS MIRROR THE
SIGNIFICANT INSTABILITY ACROSS EASTERN NC NOTED IN THE SPC
MESOANALYSES, WITH MUCAPE VALUES NEAR 4000 J/KG. WEAK WEST-
SOUTHWESTERLY SHEAR 25-30 KNOTS IS FORECAST TO INCREASE, ESPECIALLY
ACROSS NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA, TO 35-45 KNOTS LATE THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. ANY STORMS THAT BECOME SEVERE WILL HAVE THE
POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE HAIL AND/OR DAMAGING WIND GUSTS.

A FEW SITES ARE REPORTING HEAT INDICES ABOVE 105 DEGREES F BUT
EXPECT CLOUDS AND CONVECTIVE COVERAGE IN INCREASE WHICH SHOULD
DIMINISH TEMPS AND THUS HEAT INDEX VALUES BELOW HEAT ADVISORY
THRESHOLDS.

TONIGHT...THE FRONT WILL LIFT NORTH OF THE REGION TONIGHT. TIMING
AND COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS REMAINS TRICKY DUE TO
LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING AND LIFTING MECHANISMS. WILL MAINTAIN
CHANCE POPS THROUGH LATE EVENING, THEN LIKELY POPS LATE TONIGHT AS
A MOIST SOUTHERLY FLOW OVERTAKES THE REGION WHICH WOULD SUPPORT
SLIGHTLY BETTER COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. OVERNIGHT
LOWS WILL FALL INTO THE LOW/MID 70S INLAND TO MID/UPPER 70S ALONG
THE COAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY/...
AS OF 3 PM FRIDAY...WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED
ON SATURDAY. AN UPPER TROUGH WILL CONTINUE TO DIG SOUTHEAST INTO
THE MIDWESTERN STATES AND INTO THE EASTERN CONUS. A SURFACE LOW
WILL STRENGTHEN AS IT MOVES THROUGH THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY
SATURDAY. A MOIST/MODERATE SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW WILL PERSIST DURING
THE DAY SATURDAY. A VORTMAX/SHORTWAVE EMBEDDED IN THE MEAN
NORTHEASTERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL TRAVERSE EASTERN NC DURING THE
AFTERNOON HOURS. PWATS INCREASE TO ABOVE 2 INCHES, NEARLY 2
STANDARD DEVIATIONS ABOVE NORMAL FOR JUNE. A SLIGHT RISK FOR
SEVERE STORMS CONTINUES FOR SATURDAY WITH THE MAIN THREATS OF
DAMAGING WIND GUSTS, HAIL, AND AN ISOLATED TORNADO (GIVEN AN
IMPROVING SHEAR PROFILE). MAX TEMPERATURES WILL BUILD INTO THE
UPPER 80S TO NEAR 90S INLAND WITH MID 80S ALONG THE COAST, THOUGH
TEMP FORECAST REMAINS TRICKY AS SHOWERS/CLOUDS COULD SIGNIFICANTLY
IMPACT TEMPERATURES.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 310 PM FRIDAY...WET WEEKEND FOLLOWED BY SOME DRIER MORE
COMFORTABLE DAYS. THREAT OF RAIN RETURNS BY THE MIDDLE OF NEXT
WEEK.

SATURDAY NIGHT/SUNDAY...DEEPENING UPPER TROUGH COUPLED WITH A
GULF MOISTURE FEED PUSHING PRECIPITABLE WATER TO 2 INCHES OR
GREATER...AND A STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY TO OUR NORTH WILL LEAD TO
WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SATURDAY NIGHT. THE FRONT
WILL PUSH OFFSHORE WITH THE UPPER TROUGH AXIS EXITING THE COAST
DURING SUNDAY. KEPT A CHANCE OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS NEAR THE
COAST DURING SUNDAY MORNING...BUT DOWNSLOPING FLOW SHOULD QUICKLY
CLEAR THINGS OUT SUNDAY AFTERNOON. DRIER AIR FILTERS IN LEADING TO
A MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE SUNDAY WITH HIGHS IN THE 80S AND DEWPOINTS
DROPPING INTO THE 60S.

SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY...SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE AND LOW UPPER
HEIGHTS LEAD TO MORE SEASONABLE WEATHER SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH
TUESDAY WITH NO PRECIPITATION EXPECTED. TEMPERATURES WILL
GENERALLY BE IN THE MID/UPPER 80S FOR HIGHS AND MID 60S/LOW 70S
FOR LOWS...BEFORE WARMING BACK WELL INTO THE 90S BY TUESDAY.

WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...A SIMILAR PATTERN TO THIS WEEKEND'S
PATTERN WILL SET UP FOR MID/LATE NEXT WEEK. A MID-LEVEL TROUGH
WILL DEVELOP AS HEIGHTS LOWER. COUPLED WITH A STALLED FRONTAL
BOUNDARY AND DEEP MOISTURE...EXPECT A RETURN OF RAIN CHANCES
WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT...WITH SLIGHTLY LOWER POPS FRIDAY
AS THE UPPER TROUGH LIFTS OUT. TEMPERATURES WILL BE BACK CLOSE TO
SEASONAL NORMALS FOR LATE NEXT WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
SHORT TERM /THROUGH 18Z SATURDAY/...
AS OF 130 PM FRI...VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED DURING MUCH OF THE
PERIOD. HOWEVER...WITH SUMMER-TIME HEATING...INSTABILITY IN PLACE
AND DISTURBANCES CROSSING THE AREA...THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE
AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING. GIVEN THIS...EXPECT SUB-VFR
CONDITIONS COLLOCATED WITH THIS PRECIPITATION ACTIVITY. TIMING
THESE SHOWER/STORMS AND THEIR OVERALL EXTENT IS PROVING DIFFICULT
AT THIS TIME. AS OF RIGHT NOW...BKN CU FIELD IS DEVELOPING AROUND
4-5 KFT AND EXPECT CLOUD COVER TO LINGER THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT AS
ANY CONVECTIVE DEBRIS WORKS ITS WAY EASTWARD. ANTICIPATE WINDS TO
BECOME SSW OVERNIGHT.

LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 330 PM FRIDAY...WIDESPREAD SUB-VFR CONDITIONS ARE LIKELY
SATURDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY SUNDAY AS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
BE NUMEROUS. VFR RETURNS ON SUNDAY AS DOWNSLOPING DRIER AIR MOVES
IN WITH GENERALLY DRY WEATHER THROUGH TUESDAY. A CHANCE OF
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS RETURNS FOR WEDNESDAY...AND SOME BRIEF
PERIODS OF LATE DAY MVFR CEILINGS/VSBYS ARE POSSIBLE.

&&

.MARINE...
SHORT TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/
AS OF 305 PM FRIDAY...LATEST SURFACE AND BUOY DATA INDICATE
MOSTLY SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW 15-20 KT WITH SEAS 3-5 FT. CONDITIONS
SHOULD REMAIN BELOW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY LEVELS THROUGH TONIGHT
DUE TO A FRONTAL BOUNDARY SHIFTING SOUTH ACROSS THE NORTHERN/CENTRAL
COASTAL WATERS. THE FRONT SHOULD ACT TO DIMINISH THE SW GRADIENT
OVER THE WATERS THROUGH TONIGHT, THEN EXPECT THE GRADIENT TO
INCREASE ON SATURDAY AS THE WEAK BOUNDARY SHIFTS NORTH OF THE
EASTERN NC WATERS. POOR BOATING CONDITIONS EXPECTED LATE SATURDAY
AS SOUTH-SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS INCREASE, BUILDING SEAS 5-8 FT
THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES WILL BE ISSUED FOR
MOST OF THE EASTERN NC COASTAL WATERS FOR SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS
20-30 KT AND SEAS PEAKING AT 6-9 FT FOR THE OUTER WATERS. LOCAL
SWAN/NWPS AND WAVEWATCH IN DECENT AGREEMENT FOR THE SHORT TERM,
THOUGH HEDGED CLOSER TO SWAN/NWPS FOR THE NORTHERN WATERS GIVEN
ITS BETTER PERFORMANCE IN NEAR SHORE NORTHEASTERLY FLOW.

LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 330 PM FRIDAY...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS WILL BE
ONGOING AT THE BEGINNING OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD WITH GRADIENT
BEHIND BOUNDARY TO THE NORTH AND BERMUDA HIGH PRESSURE. SOUTHWEST
WINDS OF 20 TO 25 KNOTS WITH 25 TO 30 KNOTS CENTRAL WATERS CAN BE
EXPECTED WITH SEAS AS HIGH AS 8 FEET. GUSTY WINDS CONTINUE THROUGH
SUNDAY BEFORE SUBSIDING AS A COLD FRONT EASES OFFSHORE AND WINDS
BECOME MORE W/NW BY LATE SUNDAY THEN NE AT 10 KNOTS OR LESS BY
EARLY MONDAY MORNING. THE FRONT QUICKLY WASHES OUT WITH A S/SW
WIND FLOW RESUMING MONDAY EVENING. THE GRADIENT TIGHTENS AGAIN
WEDNESDAY WITH 15 TO 20 KNOT SOUTHWEST WINDS AND SEAS BUILDING TO
AS HIGH AS 6 FEET WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.
