NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
908 PM EDT WED JUN 17 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
STRONG MID AND UPPER LEVEL HIGH PRESSURE WILL HOLD OVER
THE REGION THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK. A WEAK SURFACE BOUNDARY
OVER NORTH CAROLINA THIS AFTERNOON WILL MOVE BACK NORTH THROUGH
THE MID ATLANTIC REGION TONIGHT AND THURSDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 315 PM EDT WEDNESDAY...

FORECAST AREA REMAINS IN VERY WARM AIRMASS TONIGHT AND THURSDAY.
700 MB TEMPERATURES WILL BE IN THE THE +8 TO +10 RANGE WITH 850 MB
TEMPERATURES FROM +18 TO +22.

WILL BE WATCHING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FROM UPSTREAM IN WESTERN
VIRGINIA AND WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA AS THEY TRACK ALONG A WEAK FRONT
THAT BISECTS THE FORECAST AREA. THE MOST UNSTABLE AIR WITH CAPES
FROM 2000 TO 2500 J/KG WILL BE WEST AND SOUTH OF RDU THIS AFTERNOON
AND EVENING. AT 19Z/3PM RADAR SHOWED A DEVELOPING THUNDERSTORM WEST
OF FAYETTEVILLE.

THE FRONT OVER THE AREA TONIGHT PUSHES BACK TO THE EAST...LEAVING THE
FORECAST AREA UNDER SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE FOR THURSDAY. WILL KEEP
ONLY SLIGHT CHANCE PROBABILITY IN THE AREA FOR THE AFTERNOON.

WILL ISSUE ANOTHER HEAT ADVISORY FOR THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST
COUNTY WARNING AREA FOR THURSDAY. MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES ON THURSDAY
WILL BE ABOUT 10 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL AND SIMILAR TO
WEDNESDAY...COMBINATION OF TEMPERATURES AND DEW POINTS WILL BRING
THE HEAT INDEX INTO THE 100 TO 105 RANGE.

&&

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

MID LEVEL RIDGE WILL BUILD THURSDAY AFTERNOON INTO THURSDAY
NIGHT...AS WEAK SURFACE BOUNDARY LIFTS NORTHWARD. REMNANTS OF BILL
WILL LIFT NORTH OUT OF THE SOUTHERN PLAINS TO THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY.
ISOLATED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE LATE THURSDAY
AFTERNOON INTO THURSDAY EVENING...WITH SOME INSTABILITY AND MODERATE
MUCAPE. SPC IN THE DAY TWO CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK HAS PLACED THE SLIGHT
RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER TO OUR NORTHWEST ALONG AND NORTH OF THE OHIO
RIVER WITH THE BETTER DYNAMICS. IT WILL DRY OUT LATE THURSDAY
EVENING WITH A STEAMY OVERNIGHT. OVERNIGHT LOW TEMPERATURES WILL
RANGE FROM AROUND 70 DEGREES TO THE MID 70S. THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE
WILL REMAIN OFF THE SOUTHEAST U.S. COAST RESULT IN ANOTHER HOT DAY.
THE REMNANTS OF TROPICAL SYSTEM BILL WILL LIKELY BE OVER THE MIDWEST
FRIDAY MOVING NORTHWARD. TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO BE ABOVE
NORMAL...WITH HIGHS IN THE LOW TO MID 90S. THE COMBINATION OF
TEMPERATURES AND MOISTURE WILL PRODUCE HEAT INDEX VALUES AROUND 100
ACROSS SOUTHERN LOCATIONS.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 300 PM EDT WEDNESDAY...

FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT:

THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE WILL DOMINATE OUR WEATHER ACROSS OUR REGION.
MEANWHILE...THE REMNANTS OF BILL AND ASSOCIATED MID-LEVEL ENERGY
WILL SLOWLY BECOME ABSORBED BY THE WESTERLIES FRIDAY NIGHT AND THEN
BE CARRIED TO THE EAST-NORTHEAST THROUGH THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY AND
OFF THE NORTHEAST THIS WEEKEND. THIS SYSTEM WILL SUPPRESS THE RIDGE
SOUTH...INCREASING THE CHANCES FOR CONVECTION SATURDAY AFTERNOON
INTO SATURDAY EVENING. THIS IS SUPPORTED BY BOTH THE GFS AND ECMWF
SOLUTION...WITH THE GFS MORE ROBUST WITH SHORTWAVE. WILL CONTINUE A
TYPICAL SUMMERTIME PATTERN OF HIGHEST PRECIPITATION CHANCES DURING
THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS AND LOWEST OVERNIGHT AND EARLY IN
THE MORNING. LOW TEMPERATURES FRIDAY NIGHT WILL AVERAGE ABOVE NORMAL
WITH READINGS GENERALLY IN THE LOWER TO MID 70S. WITH INCREASED
CLOUD COVER AND CONVECTION...HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL REACH THE LOW TO
MID 90S. ISOLATED SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE SATURDAY NIGHT WITH LOW
TEMPERATURES LEVELING OFF FROM AROUND 70 DEGREES TO THE MID 70S.

SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY:

ON SUNDAY AND MONDAY...THE NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT MAY RESULT IN MOSTLY
DRY CONDITION. HOWEVER...THE COMBINATION OF HEATING AND INSTABILITY
MAY TRIGGER ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
HARD TO TIME AND PLACE WEAK SHORTWAVES ROTATING EASTWARD IN THE
UPPER FLOW. A FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL TRY TO SAG SOUTH TOWARD OUR
REGION FROM THE NORTH TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY. THERE IS NOTHING TO
PUSH THIS FRONT THROUGH OUR REGION SO IT WILL SIMPLY PIVOT/MEANDER
TO OUR NORTH.

AT THE SAME TIME...THE RIDGE OVER THE MIDWEST WILL BUILD EASTWARD
THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK...RESULTING IN A WARMING TREND AND
NEAR NORMAL CHANCES FOR MAINLY DIURNAL CONVECTION. HIGHS WILL
GENERALLY BE IN THE LOWER 90S TO THE UPPER 90S...WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS
IN THE LOW TO MID 70S.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 840 PM WEDNESDAY...

MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED FOR THE 24 HOUR TAF PERIOD WITH A
STRONG MID/UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE REGION.
HOWEVER... A FEW ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS
WILL BE POSSIBLE THIS EVENING ACROSS THE EASTERN HALF OF CENTRAL NC.
AT THIS TIME... NO ONE TAF SITE HAS INCREASED ODDS OF SEEING SOME OF
THIS CONVECTION... THOUGH REMNANT OUTFLOW BOUNDARY MAY MOVE ACROSS
KRDU/KRWI/KFAY THIS EVENING BRIEFLY CAUSING WIND TO GUSTS AND CHANGE
DIRECTION. OTHERWISE... EXPECT MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS OVERNIGHT WITH
LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS... WITH POSSIBLY SOME PATCHY IFR/LOW END
MVFR STRATUS ACROSS THE EASTERN TAF SITES (KRDU/KRWI/KFAY) NEAR
DAYBREAK.

MORE OF THE SAME IS EXPECTED ON THURSDAY... HOT AND DRY IN THE
MORNING AGAIN... WITH ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
STORMS POSSIBLE DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING... WITH
THE BEST CHANCES AT KGSO/KINT WITH CONVECTION MOVING INTO THE
NORTHWEST PIEDMONT FROM THE HIGHER TERRAIN AND AT KFAY WITH
CONVECTION ASSOCIATED WITH THE SEABREEZE. ANY SHOWERS AND STORMS
THAT DEVELOP WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE HEAVY RAIN... LOW
VISBYS AND GUSTY WINDS.

OUTLOOK: A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT WILL DOMINATE THE WEATHER
PATTERN THROUGH LATE NEXT WEEK. OUTSIDE OF SCATTERED DIURNAL
CONVECTION EACH DAY...EXPECT PREDOMINATELY VFR CONDITIONS THROUGH
THE PERIOD.
