Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wilmington NC
1245 PM EST Sun Dec 18 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
Record high temperatures are expected today. A cold front will
move through tonight bringing colder temperatures and periods of
rain Monday into early Tuesday. Unsettled weather may remain
until the passage of a strong cold front late in the week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
As of 900 AM Sunday...Updated to expire dense fog advisory along
the coast south of the tip of Cape Fear down to the Grand Strand as
winds were picking up out of the southwest and visibilities were
rising. Should see any sea fog shift off the coast as winds increase
and veer through today as cold front approaches from the west. Some
lingering stratus across Williamsburg, Florence, Darlington and
Marlboro counties has kept temps in the mid 60s, but most other
places reached 70 or just above by 10am.

Previous discussion...
Forecast highs range from the mid to upper 70s, with an
80-degree reading possible from Delco NC through Currie and
Burgaw. With nearshore ocean water temperatures now in the 50s,
the beaches may have their temperatures stuck in the relatively
cool 60s today due to cool onshore winds.

Clouds should increase during the afternoon hours from west to east
as the cold front, currently crossing Tennessee and Alabama,
approaches. Scattered showers out ahead of the front could reach the
Pee Dee region by late afternoon, spreading down toward the coast
overnight. The actual surface cold front should arrive during the
late evening hours, accompanied by a wind shift to the north. While
temperatures will drop some when the front arrives, the real airmass
change appears it will lag the wind shift by a good 3-4 hours, not
arriving until late tonight.

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
As of 300 AM Sunday...A shallow modified arctic airmass will
punch southward into the Carolinas Monday, driven by strong high
pressure centered over the Mid-Mississippi Valley. The warm and
humid subtropical air we're enjoying today will still be
present, only pushed up by about 5000-6000 feet by the shallow
cold air. The resulting lift should produce widespread rain on
Monday, continuing into Monday night. Moisture will tend to thin
from the top down on Tuesday, and this may erode the coverage
of rainfall inland from the coast a bit faster than prior
forecasts had indicated. By Tuesday night it appears even the
clouds will begin to clear, and PoPs have been trimmed back to
only 10-20 percent.

After Sunday's highs reminiscent of an average day in May, Monday is
going to be a shock as temperatures may not stop falling as strong
low-level cold advection and evaporational cooling continue through
the day. Our forecast hourly temperatures actually show Monday's
daytime high occurring at 7 AM, with temperatures slipping into the
30s north and west of Myrtle Beach during the afternoon hours. Throw
in northeast winds expected to blow 10-20 mph and wind chills could
reach the 20s at times!

I actually checked, and the wet-bulb freezing line will get pretty
close to Lumberton, Elizabethtown and Burgaw late Monday night. At
this time we're not including the potential of any freezing rain in
the forecast, but trends in the models will need to be watched
closely given that the upstream surface airmass feeding southward
will be cold and quite dry.

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
As of 300 AM Sunday...Zonal flow across the southeast United
States Wednesday will begin to buckle as a positively tilted H5
trough moves across the MS valley during Thursday. This trough
is progged to move across the eastern United States during
Friday and dampen as it moves offshore during Saturday. Moisture
appears limited through the low/mid levels initially Wednesday,
then moisture advection will likely increase Wednesday night
into Thursday ahead of the approaching mid/upper trough and cold
front. Best chances of rain appear to be Thursday and Thursday
night. Drier column is expected by Friday as the higher
precipitable water shifts offshore with the cold front's
passage. Instability is lacking as the front moves through and
do not plan to mention tstms at this time. Temperatures should
remain above climatology Wed and Thu, then back to near normal
in the post- frontal air- mass Friday and Friday night. Favored
undercutting MEX/ECE temperatures Saturday as they are not
showing any appreciable low-level warm air advection.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
As of 17Z...Clouds working there way back into the area from the
west and southwest. Winds have picked up from the sw and will
be gusty especially along the coast ahead of advancing cold
front. Front will pass across the western terminals between
22z-24z and reach the coast this evening 02z-04z. Forecast
ceilings and vsby to drop to ifr between 02z-04z and we should
stay at ifr for the remainder of the forecast period as surface
low passes to our south of the SC coast on Monday. concern might
be for ptype towards the end of the forecast period as cold air
drains into the region. Guidance temps drop into the low-mid
30s by afternoon across inland terminals. Will just mention
liquid pcpn at this time but this will need to be watch. Winds
will again pick up with gusts to around 20kts after 19/15z.

Extended Outlook...Good chance of IFR/LIFR Mon. Flight
conditions improving N-S Tues.

&&

.MARINE...
NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
As of 900 AM Sunday...Gusty southwesterly winds will continue
as a cold front approaches from the west, reaching the waters
later this evening. Timing of the wind shift looks like around
11 PM for Cape Fear, 1 AM around Myrtle Beach, and 2 AM near
Georgetown. Behind the front, northerly winds should increase to
20 to 25 kt by daybreak Monday.

Very humid air streaming across the area this morning has already
led to the development of dense sea fog along the South Carolina
coast. Satellite imagery shows a strip of sea fog along the
Brunswick coast and mainly over the waters south of the tip of Cape
Fear. A marine dense fog advisory will continue through noon
today but fog with varying visibility may continue through the
afternoon hours over the waters.

The southerly fetch of stronger winds had kept seas higher in
outer waters near 20 nm off the coast from the tip of Cape Fear
north to Topsail. As winds veer with front approaching through
the day, the larger seas will align farther off shore and
eventually just out of local waters but will still exist out
toward Frying Pan Shoals where the buoy shows 9 ft seas this
morning. Will maintain maintain 5 to 7 ft seas through the day
across the NC waters, and 4 to 5 feet across the SC waters.
Therefore a SCA will remain in effect until 6pm for northern
waters and precautionary statement in southern waters.

SHORT TERM /MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
As of 300 AM Sunday...The cold front should be well south of
the area by daybreak Monday. Strong high pressure the
Mississippi Valley on Monday will push cold air southward across
the area with north to northeast winds a solid 25 knots the
likely result. Similarly strong winds should continue into
Tuesday before finally subsiding Tuesday night. A long period of
Small Craft Advisory conditions appears to be unfolding.

LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
As of 300 AM Sunday...High pressure is expected to ridge across
the waters from the north during Wednesday with hints of a weak
coastal trough developing and persisting into Wednesday night.
Larger scale return flow ahead of the next cold front will help
to dissipate the coastal trough. The cold front is expected to
shift across the waters Thursday night. The resulting wind field
will initially be northeast Wednesday lingering into the
evening, then quickly become southwesterly during Thursday prior
to veering all the way around to a northerly direction late
Thursday night with the cold front passage. Winds and seas will
be highest Thursday afternoon and Thursday night.
