AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
240 PM EST SUN JAN 4 2015

.SYNOPSIS...A COLD FRONT WILL SWING THROUGH CENTRAL NC THIS
EVENING. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION FOR MONDAY
AND MONDAY NIGHT. A COLD FRONT MARKING THE LEADING EDGE OF AN ARCTIC
AIR MASS WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA TUESDAY EVENING.
&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 1145 AM SUNDAY...

CHALLENGING TEMPERATURE FORECAST. FURTHER EROSION OF THE REMNANT
COLD AIR DAMMING WEDGE OVER THE WESTERN PIEDMONT HAS BEEN DELAYED BY
THE SW-NE ORIENTED LINE OF SHOWERS ADVANCING EASTWARD WELL AHEAD OF
THE SYNOPTIC COLD FRONT. THE MODIFIED CAD WEDGE IS EXPECTED TO
'SLOSH' EASTWARD THIS AFTERNOON IN CONCERT WITH SHOWER ACTIVITY DUE
TO RELATIVE TIGHTENING OF THE MSLP GRADIENT BETWEEN THE 'BUBBLE
HIGH' ASSOC/W THE MODIFIED WEDGE TO THE WEST AND PRESSURE FALLS
ASSOC/W INSOLATION IN THE WARM SECTOR TO THE EAST. THIS MAY RESULT
IN A FAUX COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE ALONG THE HWY 1 CORRIDOR (ESP NORTH
OF HWY 64) DURING THE EARLY TO MID AFTERNOON HOURS. THIS FAUX COLD
FRONTAL PASSAGE SHOULD BE LESS NOTICEABLE SOUTH OF HWY 64 WHERE
STRENGTHENING SOUTHERLY FLOW /WARM ADVECTION/ WILL ACTIVELY ERODE
THE MODIFIED WEDGE AIRMASS FROM THE SOUTH. WITH THE ABOVE IN MIND...
EXPECT HIGHS RANGING FROM THE MID 50S TO LOWER 60S WEST OF HWY 1 AND
NORTH OF HWY 64...TO THE LOWER/MID 70S EAST OF HWY 1 AND SOUTH OF
HWY 64.

ELEVATED CONVECTION ADVANCING TOWARD THE HWY 1 CORRIDOR /WARM
SECTOR/ HAS INCREASED IN INTENSITY THE PAST SEVERAL HOURS...PERHAPS
DUE TO ADDED FORCING FOR ASCENT FROM MCV-LIKE FEATURES OR WAVES
PROGRESSING THROUGH THE WESTERN PIEDMONT (PER REGIONAL RADAR)...WARM
ADVECTION ATOP THE MODIFIED CAD WEDGE...AND INCREASING INSTABILITY
IN CLOSER VICINITY TO THE WARM SECTOR. A FURTHER INCREASE IN
CONVECTIVE INTENSITY APPEARS LIKELY AS CONVECTION PROGRESSES
EASTWARD INTO THE WARM SECTOR...DRIVEN BY LOW-LEVEL CONVERGENCE
BETWEEN THE MODIFIED WEDGE/WARM SECTOR. ONCE THIS LINE PROGRESSES
EASTWARD THROUGH CENTRAL NC...CONFIDENCE DECREASES SUBSTANTIALLY
WITH REGARD TO WHETHER OR NOT THE MODIFIED WEDGE WILL ERODE AND
ALLOW A SECONDARY WARM SECTOR TO DEVELOP PRIOR TO THE SYNOPTIC COLD
FRONTAL PASSAGE THIS EVENING...AND WHETHER OR NOT RENEWED CONVECTIVE
DEVELOPMENT WILL ACCOMPANY THE FRONT. DESPITE FAVORABLE
THERMODYNAMICS IN THE COASTAL PLAIN THIS AFTERNOON...WEAK UPPER
LEVEL FORCING /DPVA/ AND DRY AIR ALOFT WILL ACT TO TEMPER ONGOING
CONVECTIVE INTENSITY. AS A RESULT...THE SVR WX POTENTIAL THIS
AFTERNOON WILL BE CONFINED TO AN ISOLD INSTANCE OF DAMAGING WINDS
ATTENDANT THE DEEPEST UPDRAFTS ALONG/EAST OF I-95 BETWEEN 1-6 PM AS
THE ONGOING LINE PROGRESSES INTO THE UNSEASONABLY RICH/WELL
ESTABLISHED WARM SECTOR OVER EASTERN NC. ALTHOUGH MORE SIGNIFICANT
SHORTWAVE ENERGY WILL GRAZE NORTHWEST PORTIONS OF THE STATE LATER
TODAY AS THS SYNOPTIC COLD FRONT APPROACHES...WEAK MID-LEVEL LAPSE
RATES AND WEAKER THERMODYNAMICS (ASSUMING A SECONDARY WARM SECTOR
EVEN DEVELOPS) SHOULD PRECLUDE A SEVERE POTENTIAL WITH THE COLD
FRONT THIS EVENING. -VINCENT

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 240 PM SUNDAY...

THIS WILL BE A TRANSITION PERIOD AS HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE OHIO
VALLEY ON MONDAY EVENING SHIFTS OFF THE MID ATLANTIC COAST BY
TUESDAY MORNING. A FAST MOVING SHORT WAVE TROUGH WITH AN ASSOCIATED
WEAK SURFACE LOW WILL TRACK ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY AND THEN OFFSHORE
TUESDAY EVENING. THE TRAILING COLD FRONT WILL SWEEP THROUGH CENTRAL
NC TUESDAY EVENING WITH COLD ADVECTION COMMENCING OVERNIGHT. THE
AIR MASS OVER CENTRAL NC WILL BE QUITE DRY WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER
VALUES REMAINING BELOW 0.5 INCHES THROUGHOUT THE PERIOD. AT THIS
POINT ONLY SOME INCREASE IN MID AND HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS IS EXPECTED
DURING THE PERIOD WITH NO POPS.

TEMPERATURES MONDAY NIGHT WILL BE CHILLY AS SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE WILL BE OVERHEAD PROMOTING GOOD RADIATIONAL COOLING.
LOWS WILL RANGE IN THE MID TO UPPER 20S. TEMPERATURES ON TUESDAY
WILL REBOUND INTO THE 51-58 RANGE WITH SOME DECENT WARM ADVECTION
AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING TROUGH. TEMPERATURES WILL FALL INTO THE 29-
35 RANGE ON TUESDAY NIGHT AS WINDS BECOME NORTHWESTERLY AND COLD
ADVECTION BEGINS TO RAMP UP. -BLAES
&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 315 AM SUNDAY...

THE MAIN IMPACT DURING THIS PERIOD WILL CERTAINLY BE THE ARCTIC
FRONT MOVING THROUGH CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA WEDNESDAY. MANY
INDICATIONS ARE THAT THE FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH DRY...WITH MOS
GUIDANCE POPS BELOW CLIMATOLOGY...BUT THERE IS A NOTICEABLE TREND IN
THE COARSE ECMWF AND GFS BUFR SOUNDINGS TOWARD GREATER MID-LEVEL
MOISTURE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON...AND BOTH THE ECMWF AND GFS FORECAST
ESSENTIALLY A HUNDREDTH-INCH OF PRECIPITATION SOUTHEAST OF THE
TRIANGLE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. THAT IS WHERE TEMPERATURES WOULD BE
WARMER AND MOISTURE A LITTLE GREATER COMPARED TO THE REST OF CENTRAL
NORTH CAROLINA. 1000-850MB THICKNESSES WOULD BE INDETERMINATE AND
THAT USUALLY RESULTS IN RAIN...SO AN ALTERNATIVE TO THE DRY FORECAST
WEDNESDAY COULD BE A PASSING PATCH OF LIGHT RAIN OR SPRINKLES MAINLY
SOUTHEAST OF THE TRIANGLE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON WITH THE FRONTAL
PASSAGE.

LOW LEVELS REMAIN MIXED OVERNIGHT WEDNESDAY SUCH THAT SUSTAINED
SURFACE WINDS SHOULD BE NEAR 10MPH EVEN AROUND SUNRISE THURSDAY.
FORECASTING WITH A BLEND OF GUIDANCE WOULD SUGGEST OVERNIGHT LOWS IN
THE TEENS WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND RESULTANT MINIMUM WIND CHILLS ARE IN
THE SINGLE DIGITS ABOVE ZERO. IF OVERNIGHT LOWS END UP A DEGREE OR
TWO COLDER THAN FORECAST AND WINDS STAY ABOUT AS FORECAST A COUPLE
OF SPOTS COULD SEE WIND CHILLS QUITE CLOSE TO ZERO AND THIS WILL
NEED TO BE MONITORED OVER THE NEXT FEW FORECASTS. WILL AT LEAST
MENTION THE COLD WIND CHILLS IN THE HWO WITH PLANS MADE FOR A QUITE
COLD MORNING THEN. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THE RECORD LOW FOR KFAY
FOR JANUARY 8 IS AN ODDLY WARM ONE...14 SET IN 1970. RECORDS AT KGSO
AND KRDU FOR THE SAME DATE ARE WELL INTO SINGLE DIGITS.

AHEAD OF THE ARCTIC FRONT TUESDAY...MOS GUIDANCE TEMPERATURES ARE IN
LINE WITH 1000-850MB THICKNESSES...FOR HIGHS IN THE LOWER 50S
NORTHWEST TO APPROACHING 60 TOWARD KCTZ. NAM AND GFS BUFR SOUNDINGS
SHOW SOME HIGH CLOUDS THEN IN THE WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT SOUTH OF
SHORTWAVE ENERGY MOVING THROUGH THE MID-ATLANTIC. IN ADDITION...THE
GFS WOULD FORECAST SOME LOWER CLOUDS IN THE WARM-AIR ADVECTION AS
SOUTHWEST WINDS ALOFT INCREASE JUST OFF OF THE SURFACE. HIGHS WILL
BE FORECAST WITH A BLEND OF MAV AND MET MOS GUIDANCE TUESDAY...BUT
IF THE MOISTURE PROFILE OF THE NAM VERIFIES THE HIGHS COULD REACH
THE WARMER MAV MOS GUIDANCE AS SUGGESTED BY THICKNESSES AS SOUTHWEST
WINDS INCREASE DURING THE DAY.

FOR THE END OF THE WEEK...AS THE FLOW ALOFT SLOWLY VEERS MOISTURE
ALOFT WILL SLOWLY INCREASE. THE SURFACE RIDGE AXIS MOVES SOUTH OF
CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA THURSDAY...WITH A WEAK SURFACE TROUGH OR COLD
FRONT MOVING THROUGH FRIDAY. TEMPERATURES SHOULD SLOWLY MODERATE BUT
STILL BE BELOW NORMAL. THE LATEST ECMWF HAS TRENDED WET FOR
OVERNIGHT SATURDAY AND IF THAT WOULD OCCUR...ITS PARTIAL THICKNESSES
WOULD BE WARM ENOUGH FOR LIQUID. WITH THIS BEING THE FIRST RUN OF
PRECIPITATION...AT THE VERY END OF THE FORECAST WITH THE GFS STILL
DRY...WILL MAINTAIN A DRY FORECAST FOR NOW WHILE SHOWING INCREASING
CLOUDS.

&&

.AVIATION /12Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 645 AM SUNDAY...

NUMEROUS IFR AND LIFR CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST OVER MUCH OF CENTRAL
NORTH CAROLINA THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING...WITH THE MOST OPTIMISTIC
CONDITIONS TOWARD KFAY WHERE MOSTLY MVFR CONDITIONS SHOULD
PREVAIL...ALTHOUGH KFAY SHOULD LIE CLOSE TO THE TRANSITION WHERE VFR
CONDITIONS EXIST TOWARD KGSB AND KCTZ AND IFR CONDITIONS ARE NOTED
JUST TO ITS WEST AND NORTH. FOR THE 12Z VALID TAF...CONTINUED LLWS
TO 15Z TOWARD THE TRIAD WHERE WINDS WERE LIGHTER AND MORE
VARIABLE...BUT THROUGHOUT CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA WINDS THROUGH THE
MORNING WILL INCREASE ALOFT FROM THE SOUTHWEST TO AROUND 45KT. THE
MORE NUMEROUS SHOWERS THAT OCCURRED NEAR THE SURFACE WARM FRONT NEAR
THE INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR EARLY THIS MORNING WERE MOVING EAST AND
NORTHEAST...FOLLOWED BY MORE SCATTERED SHOWERS AND DRIZZLE WHICH
WILL BECOME NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND POSSIBLY AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM
ALONG A COLD FRONT THAT WILL MOVE EAST ACROSS CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA
THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY THIS EVENING. IN A MOIST AIR MASS AHEAD OF
THE FRONT...MOSTLY SUB-VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD PERSIST UNTIL DRIER AIR
MOVES INTO CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA THIS EVENING BEHIND THE COLD
FRONT. SOUTHWEST WINDS SHOULD SHOW A GUSTY CHARACTER AND A FEW GUSTS
OF 25 TO 30KT ARE POSSIBLE ESPECIALLY AT THE KRDU...KFAY...AND KRWI
TAF SITES THIS AFTERNOON. SURFACE WINDS VEER TO THE WEST-NORTHWEST
TO NORTHWEST THIS EVENING AS VFR CONDITIONS DEVELOP. WIDESPREAD VFR
CONDITIONS ARE HIGHLY PROBABLE BY 06Z CONTINUING THROUGH AND THEN
BEYOND THE END OF THE 12Z VALID TAF PERIOD.

BEYOND THE 12Z VALID TAF PERIOD...VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED. THERE
WILL BE OCCASIONAL PERIODS OF HIGH CLOUDS DURING MID-WEEK...AND
POSSIBLY LOWER VFR CLOUDS FOR A PERIOD TUESDAY AND AGAIN WEDNESDAY.
AN ARCTIC COLD FRONT SHOULD MOVE THROUGH CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA
WEDNESDAY WITH COLD HIGH PRESSURE FOR THURSDAY.
