AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
1056 PM EDT MON APR 20 2015

.SYNOPSIS...A COLD FRONT WILL TRACK EAST ACROSS NC TONIGHT. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN FROM THE SOUTHWEST LATE TONIGHT THROUGH
TUESDAY... THEN SHIFT OFF THE COAST TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. A
COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH FROM THE NORTH WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 1055 PM MONDAY...

ALTHOUGH SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH #89 HAS BEEN ALLOWED TO EXPIRE...
THERE REMAINS A CONDITIONAL RISK OF ISOLATED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
THROUGH AROUND 2 AM.

STRONG Q-VECTOR CONVERGENCE ASSOCIATED WITH A NEGATIVELY-TILTED
TROUGH ALOFT -ONE WHICH WV IMAGERY INDICATES INCLUDES AN IMPULSE
OVER NE GA AND A MORE SUBSTANTIAL SHORTWAVE TROUGH OVER THE TN
VALLEY...WITH MARKED DRYING IMMEDIATELY BEHIND THE LATTER- WILL
CONTINUE TO PIVOT NE ACROSS CENTRAL NC THROUGH 04Z IN THE SOUTHERN
AND WESTERN PIEDMONT TO 08Z OVER THE NE PIEDMONT AND COASTAL PLAIN.
IN ADDITION...OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS DATA INDICATE A PLUME OF STEEP MID
LEVEL LAPSE RATES BETWEEN 7 AND 7.5 C/KM SAMPLED BY THE BMX 00Z RAOB
HAS FINALLY ADVECTED INTO CENTRAL NC...SUPPORTIVE OF AN UPTICK IN
MLCAPE TO BETWEEN 500-1000 J/KG...DESPITE BOTH NOCTURNAL AND
DIABATIC OUTFLOW COOLING. LASTLY...THE SURFACE COLD FRONT WAS
ANALYZED AT 02Z OVER THE FOOTHILLS OF THE CAROLINAS...WITH A PRE-
FRONTAL TROUGH IMMEDIATELY AHEAD OF THE FRONT; AND THESE FEATURES
ARE FORECAST TO MOVE EAST ACROSS CENTRAL NC WITH SIMILAR TIMING AS
THE AFOREMENTIONED UPPER FORCING.

THE MAIN LIMITING FACTOR WITH ANY APPRECIABLE CONVECTIVE
REDEVELOPMENT WILL BE DEEP MOISTURE...WITH OBSERVED PRECIPITABLE
WATER VALUES OF ONLY AROUND THREE QUARTERS OF AN INCH AT GSO AND
MHX. FURTHERMORE...SURFACE DEWPOINTS REMAIN RELATIVELY MODEST EVEN
AHEAD OF THE FRONT OVER THE WESTERN PIEDMONT AND FOOTHILLS...WHERE
SURFACE DEWPOINTS AT 02Z WERE ONLY IN THE MID-UPPER 50S. RELATIVELY
RICHER LOW LEVEL MOISTURE...CHARACTERIZED BY SURFACE DEWPOINTS IN
THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 60S...WAS OBSERVED OVER THE REMAINDER OF CENTRAL
NC. DESPITE THE LIMITED MOISTURE...THERE HAS ALREADY BEEN
REDEVELOPMENT OF A RELATIVELY STRONG LINE OF STORMS FROM NEAR TDF TO
BUY; AND THIS ACTIVITY...AS WELL AS NEW ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCATTERED
DEVELOPMENT ALTOGETHER...WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE UNTIL THE
AFOREMENTIONED FRONT AND UPPER FORCING CLEAR CENTRAL NC. BOTH LOW
AND DEEP LAYER SHEAR...THE LATTER OF WHICH IS CHARACTERIZED STILL BY
LONG AND STRAIGHT HODOGRAPHS FROM OBSERVED PROXIMITY RAOB DATA...ARE
MORE THAN SUPPORTIVE OF ORGANIZED STORM MODES...INCLUDING SUPERCELLS
AND/OR BOWS WITHIN MULTI-CELL LINE SEGMENTS.

POST-FRONTAL LOW TEMPS...ACCOMPANIED BY MUCH LOWER RELATIVE HUMIDITY
VALUES BY DAYBREAK...SHOULD RANGE FROM AROUND 50 DEGREES NW TO
AROUND 60 SE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 330 PM MONDAY...

THE COLD FRONT WILL HAVE PUSHED JUST SE OF THE FORECAST AREA BY
DAYBREAK TUE... WITH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN FROM THE GULF
STATES... THEN DRIFTING ACROSS GA/SRN SC. FORECAST SOUNDINGS SHOW A
STABLE AND DRY COLUMN WITH JUST A FEW FLAT CU NEAR THE TOP OF THE
MIXED LAYER IN THE AFTERNOON. A PASSING WEAK VORTICITY MAX COULD
ALSO BRING A STREAM OF MID/HIGH CLOUDS IN THE EVENING. HIGHS BELOW
NORMAL AT 68-74 WITH PARTLY TO MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES. MOSTLY CLEAR TUE
NIGHT WITH THE HIGH SHIFTING OFF THE COAST. LOWS 44-50. -GIH

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 300 PM MONDAY...

WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT...DRY CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST ON
WEDNESDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST US GRADUALLY SLIPS
OFFSHORE WEDNESDAY MORNING/EARLY AFTERNOON. ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL
APPROACH THE AREA LATE WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY. HOWEVER...LIMITED
MOISTURE RETURN AHEAD OF THIS SYSTEM WILL KEEP PRECIP CHANCES
MINIMAL. NEVERTHELESS...WILL KEEP A SLIGHT CHANCE POP IN THE
FORECAST FOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT/EARLY THURSDAY...BUT MOST PLACES WILL
LIKELY STAY DRY AND THOSE THAT SEE PRECIP WILL HAVE MEAGER AMOUNTS.
HIGHS ON WEDNESDAY WILL RISE INTO THE MID/UPPER 70S...WHILE ON
THURSDAY HIGHS WILL RANGE FROM THE UPPER 60S ACROSS THE NORTH
(EARLIER FRONTAL PASSAGE) TO THE MID 70S FURTHER SOUTH. OVERNIGHT
LOWS WILL GENERALLY BE IN THE MID/UPPER 40S TO LOWER 50S (COOLEST
THURSDAY NIGHT BEHIND THE FRONT).

FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY...UNCERTAINTY REMAINS FAIRLY HIGH WITH RESPECT
TO THE END OF THE WEEK AND ESPECIALLY INTO THE WEEKEND. THE OVERALL
PATTERN INDICATES THE AFOREMENTIONED COLD FRONT WILL STALL JUST
SOUTH OF THE REGION FOR THE END OF THE WEEK. THEN...AS A SOUTHERN
STREAM SYSTEM APPROACHES...MULTIPLE WAVES OF LOW PRESSURE WILL RIDE
ALONG THIS BOUNDARY...SPREADING PRECIP BACK INTO THE AREA.
HOWEVER...AS CAN BE EXPECTED THIS FAR OUT...DETAILS HAVE YET TO BE
WORKED OUT. REGARDLESS...WILL SHOW POPS EARLY IN THE WEEKEND WITH...
AS OF NOW AT LEAST...DRIER CONDITIONS BY SUNDAY. MONDAY ALSO LOOKS
TO BE DRY...BUT ANOTHER SYSTEM IS PROGGED TO BE ON OUR DOORSTEP BY
LATE MONDAY/MONDAY NIGHT. TEMPS WILL GENERALLY BE NEAR TO SLIGHTLY
BELOW NORMAL THROUGH THE TIME FRAME.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 735 PM MONDAY...

SCATTERED STORMS WILL CONTINUE TO AFFECT PORTIONS OF CENTRAL NC WITH
BRIEF PERIODS OF SUB-VFR CONDITIONS. ONE BAND OF SCATTERED STORMS
WILL AFFECT RDU THROUGH 03Z... AND WILL POTENTIALLY REACH RWI
AFFECTING THAT SITE 02Z-05Z. AT THIS TIME... IT APPEARS THAT THE
STORMS WILL HOLD LARGELY TO THE NORTHEAST OF FAY. A SECOND BAND OF
STORMS OVER THE NRN FOOTHILLS AND NRN MOUNTAINS OF NC MAY SKIRT NEAR
INT BUT IS ALSO EXPECTED TO STAY MAINLY NW OF THE TRIAD. BRIEF MVFR
TO IFR CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE IN AND NEAR STORMS... AS WELL AS PEA
TO QUARTER SIZE HAIL. OTHERWISE... VFR CONDITIONS WILL DOMINATE
THROUGH TONIGHT. WINDS FROM THE SW AT 10-15 KTS GUSTING TO 20-25 KTS
WILL PERSIST... VEERING AROUND TO WESTERLY WITH DIMINISHING GUSTS
AFTER PASSAGE OF A COLD FRONT AFTER 04Z. A SHORT PERIOD OF MVFR CIGS
ARE POSSIBLE WITH FRONTAL PASSAGE... BUT GENERALLY WE EXPECT VFR
CONDITIONS LATE TONIGHT THROUGH THE END OF THE TAF VALID PERIOD WITH
MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES.

LOOKING BEYOND 00Z WED... VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD HOLD THROUGH WED AS
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE REGION. A FEW HOURS OF SUB-VFR
CIGS/VSBYS WITH A FEW SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE WED EVENING/NIGHT INTO
EARLY THU AS A DISTURBANCE MOVES QUICKLY ACROSS THE DEEP SOUTH AND
SOUTHEAST STATES. VFR CONDITIONS AND COOLER WEATHER WILL FOLLOW FOR
LATE THU INTO SAT. -GIH

.RAH WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NONE.
