...A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 930 PM EDT
FOR MONTGOMERY AND NORTHWESTERN MOORE COUNTIES...

AT 854 PM EDT...DOPPLER RADAR CONTINUED TO INDICATE A LINE OF SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING QUARTER SIZE HAIL AND DAMAGING
WINDS IN EXCESS OF 58 MPH. THESE STORMS WERE LOCATED ALONG A LINE
EXTENDING FROM 11 MILES SOUTHEAST OF SEAGROVE TO NEAR BISCOE TO NEAR
TROY...MOVING SOUTHEAST AT 20 MPH.

LOCATIONS IMPACTED INCLUDE...
TROY...BISCOE...MOUNT GILEAD...FOXFIRE...STAR...CANDOR...PEKIN...
STEEDS...EAGLE SPRINGS AND UWHARRIE HAVEN.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS PRODUCE DAMAGING WINDS...DESTRUCTIVE HAIL...
DEADLY LIGHTNING AND VERY HEAVY RAIN. FOR YOUR PROTECTION MOVE TO AN
INTERIOR ROOM ON THE LOWEST FLOOR OF YOUR HOME OR BUSINESS. HEAVY
RAINS FLOOD ROADS QUICKLY SO DO NOT DRIVE INTO AREAS WHERE WATER
COVERS THE ROAD.

IN ADDITION TO LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS...CONTINUOUS CLOUD TO
GROUND LIGHTNING IS OCCURRING WITH THIS STORM.  MOVE INDOORS
IMMEDIATELY. LIGHTNING IS ONE OF NATURES LEADING KILLERS. REMEMBER...
IF YOU CAN HEAR THUNDER...YOU ARE CLOSE ENOUGH TO BE STRUCK BY
LIGHTNING.

TORRENTIAL RAINFALL IS ALSO OCCURRING WITH THESE STORMS...AND MAY
LEAD TO FLASH FLOODING. DO NOT DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE THROUGH FLOODED
ROADWAYS.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
801 PM EDT MON JUL 13 2015

.SYNOPSIS...AN INCREASINGLY ACTIVE NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WILL
BRING A SERIES OF DISTURBANCES ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH MIDWEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 335 PM MONDAY...

A SERIES OF DISTURBANCES ALOFT WILL CAUSE A L/W TROUGH TO AMPLIFY
OVER THE EASTERN U.S. THROUGH MID WEEK. THIS AMPLIFICATION WILL LEAD
TO AN INCREASE CHANCE FOR ACTIVE CONVECTIVE WEATHER ACROSS CENTRAL
NC THIS PERIOD.

REST OF THE AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT... SCATTERED CONVECTION WILL
PERSIST THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON IN VICINITY OF A DIFFERENTIAL HEATING
BOUNDARY OVER THE SANDHILLS EXTENDING INTO THE EASTERN PIEDMONT. THE
SLY LOW LEVEL FLOW IS FEEDING MODERATELY UNSTABLE AIR MASS INTO THIS
BOUNDARY. THE INSTABILITY AXIS AT MID AFTERNOON EXTENDS FROM THE
TRIAD INTO THE SOUTHERN PIEDMONT...SO EXPECT THE SCATTERED STORMS TO
EVENTUALLY GENERATE/BUILD WESTWARD INTO THIS SECTION OF THE FORECAST
AREA BY LATE THIS AFTERNOON-EARLY EVENING. EFFECTIVE SHEAR
RELATIVELY WEAK IN THIS REGION SO ORGANIZED BANDS OF CONVECTION
APPEAR TO BE MINIMAL LATE THIS AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING. STORMS WHICH
EXHIBIT SUSTAINED UPDRAFTS AND ASSOCIATED PRECIP LOADING WILL HAVE
THE THREAT TO PRODUCE LOCALLY STRONG/DAMAGING WIND GUSTS WHEN THE
PRECIP LOAD DESCENDS TO THE SURFACE. THIS THREAT APPEARS TO BE
HIGHEST OVER THE WESTERN AND SOUTHERN PIEDMONT WHICH HAS SEEN THE
MOST HEATING TODAY.

LATER TONIGHT (AFTER 02Z-4Z)...CONVECTIVE COMPLEX CURRENTLY CROSSING
SOUTHERN OH-NORTHERN KY WILL BE APPROACHING OUR NW COUNTIES.
MAJORITY OF WRF MODELS DISSIPATE THIS COMPLEX AS IT MOVES SEWD INTO
OUR REGION...THOUGH THE PAST FEW RUNS OF THE HRRR DRAGS THIS SYSTEM
(THOUGH IN SOMEWHAT WEAKER FORM) ACROSS THE REGION. GFS HAS HAD A
STRONG SIGNAL THE PAST FEW RUNS A WELL...BRING THIS SYSTEM THOUGH
OVERNIGHT. THUS...WILL MAINTAIN A HIGH END CHANCE OF CONVECTION
ACROSS MOST OF THE PIEDMONT.

EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR EXPECTED TO INCREASE TO BETWEEN 20-30KTS WITH
MLCAPE 400-800J/KG. THIS SUGGEST A CHANCE FOR ORGANIZED CONVECTION
IN THE FORM OF BROKEN BANDS WITH SOME BOWING FEATURES POSSIBLE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 335 PM MONDAY...

...RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH WIDESPREAD DAMAGING WINDS
PROBABLE TUESDAY NIGHT...

CONVECTIVE DEBRIS CLOUDINESS AND LINGERING SHOWERS OVER THE COASTAL
PLAIN WILL GRADUALLY MOVE OUT OR DIMINISH BY LATE MORNING. HEATING
OF THE MOIST AIR MASS WILL GENERATE A MODERATELY UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE
BY AFTERNOON. A STEADY SW WIND AROUND 10KTS WITH GUSTS NEAR 20KTS
WILL PUSH AFTERNOON TEMPS WELL INTO THE 90S. NOT SEEING MUCH IN THE
MANNER OF A MECHANISM ALOFT TO TRIGGER ORGANIZED CONVECTION IN THE
AFTERNOON THOUGH PULSE TYPE THUNDERSTORMS A DEFINITE POSSIBILITY.

BULK SHEAR WILL BEGIN TO INCREASE LATE IN THE DAY...AND MORE SO
TUESDAY NIGHT AS A MID LEVEL 45-50KT ROUNDS THE BASE OF THE TROUGH.
THIS ENHANCED SHEAR WILL RESULT IN EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR 30-40KTS. A
S/W RESPONSIBLE FOR CONVECTION EXPECTED TO FIRE OVER THE UPPER
MIDWEST THIS EVENING WILL INITIATE/SUSTAIN THIS CONVECTIVE COMPLEX
ACROSS CENTRAL NC. DUE TO THE STRONG HEATING EXPECTED TUESDAY
AFTERNOON...EXPECT DECENT LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES TO PERSIST WELL INTO
THE EVENING HOURS. THE ENHANCED LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES ALONG WITH THE
ABNORMALLY STRONG BULK SHEAR SUGGEST A GOOD PROBABILITY OF DAMAGING
WINDS WITH THE STRONGER/SEVERE STORMS. AN ISOLATED TORNADO OR TWO
CANNOT BE RULED OUT. THIS SEVERE WEATHER EPISODE MAY PERSIST WELL
INTO THE OVERNIGHT/PRE-DAWN HOURS.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 230 PM MONDAY...

THE UPPER TROUGH AXIS AND ASSOC SFC BOUNDARY ARE PROGGED TO MOVE
EAST OF I-95 BY 18Z WED...SO LOOK FOR PRECIP CHANCES TO WIND DOWN
DURING THE MORNING TO MID-DAY PERIOD WED. WITH THE AIRMASS CHANGE
LAGGING...HIGHS ON WED SHOULD STILL REACH THE LOW-MID 90S.

HIGH PRESSURE IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT WILL BUILD INTO NC FOR THU
AND FRI...PROVIDING FAIR WEATHER AND COOLER TEMPS WITH READINGS NEAR
OR PERHAPS A FEW DEGREES BELOW NORMAL.

RAIN CHANCES WILL INCREASE BACK TO CLIMO AND PERHAPS ABOVE CLIMO
OVER THE WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK AS THE RIDGE CENTER OVER THE
LOWER MISS VALLEY MOVES WEST AND A SERIES OF SHORT WAVES ROUND THE
RIDGE TOP AND DROP SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE CAROLINAS. TEMPS DURING THIS
TIME WILL MODERATE BACK ABOVE NORMAL BY THE END OF THE WEEKEND AND
INTO MONDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 755 PM MONDAY...

AN ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN ACROSS THE EASTERN U.S. WILL RESULT IN
PERIODS OF CONVECTION ACROSS CENTRAL NC THROUGH WEDNESDAY AND
ASSOCIATED MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS DUE TO CEILINGS AND HEAVY RAIN
SHOWERS. ASIDE FROM THE CONVECTION...EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS.

A LINE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO MOVE ACROSS CENTRAL NC
THIS EVENING INTO EARLY TUESDAY MORNING. EXPECT WE WILL SEE SOME
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS DEVELOP IN ADVANCE OF THE LINE ACROSS
THE PIEDMONT... MAINLY AFFECTING KGSO/KINT. AS THE LINE OF STORMS
MOVES ACROSS A GIVEN LOCATION EXPECT WE WILL SEE WIND GUSTS AT LEAST
INTO THE 25 TO 40 KT RANGE... WITH SOME HIGHER GUSTS. EXPECT THE
LINE WILL BEGIN TO MOVE INTO NORTHWESTERN PORTIONS OF CENTRAL NC BY
AROUND 9 PM... THEN QUICKLY PROGRESSING EAST AND SOUTHWARD. PATCHY
SUB-VFR CONDITIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE IN THE WAKE OF THE CONVECTIVE
LINE EARLY TUESDAY MORNING UNTIL AROUND SUNRISE TO MID MORNING.
EXPECT WIND WILL INCREASE OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST ON TUESDAY BY MID TO
LATE MORNING INTO THE 10 TO 15 MPH RANGE... WITH SOME GUSTS OF UP TO
25 MPH (TO MAYBE EVEN 30 MPH) BY TUESDAY AFTERNOON. ANOTHER ROUND OF
STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE BY LATE TUESDAY INTO
TUESDAY NIGHT. HOWEVER... WILL NOT INCLUDE ANY MENTION IN THE TAF AT
THIS TIME GIVEN THE BEST COVERAGE IS EXPECTED NEAR THE END OF THE
TAF PERIOD AND BEYOND.

FOR THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...EXPECT A RETURN TO A MORE TYPICAL
SUMMER PATTERN WITH EXTENDED PERIODS OF VFR CONDITIONS WITH ISOLATED
CONVECTION HIGHLY PROBABLE IN THE AFTERNOON-EARLY EVENING HOURS.
