Area forecast discussion, Jul 10, 6:53 PM EDT, 28 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Wilmington NC 653 PM EDT SUN JUL 10 2016 .SYNOPSIS... A weak front will lift back to the north through tonight. Bermuda high pressure will build across the area this week, bringing typical summertime heat and humidity along with a daily risk for showers and thunderstorms. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/... As of 700 PM Sunday...A front was already working back to the N and showers and thunderstorms were increasing across the area in response to the associated lift and convergence with mesoscale boundaries i.e. the seabreeze and convective outflow boundaries. Thus far, there have been no reports of severe weather, but the risk for a strong thunderstorm will remain non-zero tonight. As the front lifts northward, the risk for showers and thunderstorms will expand northward as well. At this time, have increased POPs to the scattered category with pockets of numerous where the seabreeze/synoptic front were interacting this eve. Overnight lows, mid and upper 70s. && .SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/... As of 300 PM Sunday...The western extension of the Bermuda high will keep up a warm and moist south to southwesterly flow over the eastern Carolinas through the period. A moderately unstable column will develop over the area, leading to primarily diurnal convection with the good chance for thunderstorms for both Monday and Tuesday. Temperatures will be seasonal or just above on both days, with highs in the lower 90s and lows in the mid 70s. However, temperatures near the coast may not make it out of the 80s. && .LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... As of 300 PM Sunday...Bermuda High and Piedmont trough will be the main surface features through the period. The pattern aloft will consist of weak ridging at the start of the period which is then suppressed by passage of shortwaves late in the week. Lack of strong ridge aloft and abundance of deep moisture, precipitable water values remain near 2 inches through the period, will generate diurnal convection each day. Best precip chances occur later in the period as the weak 5h ridge breaks down. Precip chances will remain in the 30% to 50% range, highest over the weekend. Temperatures will be near to slightly above climo through the period but dewpoints flirting with mid 70s will result in afternoon heat index values close to heat advisory criteria. && .AVIATION /00Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... As of 00Z...Convection should be winding down. The HRRR model is hinting that there may be pockets of convection well into the night, however coverage is expected to be isolated. Hopefully the winds will stay up enough to preclude fog, but there be some isolated pockets of fog. Monday, the front waves north with more convection expected around max heating. EXTENDED OUTLOOK...Localized MVFR in ISOLD/SCT thunderstorms each day between 17z-01Z, otherwise expect VFR. && .MARINE... NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... As of 700 PM Sunday...A weak front will move back north of the waters tonight. The bermuda ridge will keep SW winds across the waters, mainly 10 to 15 kt. Sustained wind speeds will tend to diminish slightly toward morning. Seas will be 2 to 4 ft through late eve, then 2 to 3 ft overnight. Showers and thunderstorms will be on the increase across the waters, with coverage expected to become scattered. SHORT TERM /MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/... As of 300 PM Sunday...High pressure over the western Atlantic will keep winds from the SW at 10 to 15 kts through the period, with seas of 2 or 3 ft. No advisories expected during the short term. However, there will be a chance for thunderstorms each day, particularly in the afternoon and evening. LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... As of 300 PM Sunday...Combination of Bermuda High and Piedmont trough will continue southwest flow through the period. Speeds will be in the 10 to 15 kt range with highest values later in the period as the trough strengthens and the gradient becomes more defined. Seas 2 to 3 ft at the start of the period will build to 2 to 4 ft Thu and Fri. && .ILM WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... SC...None. NC...None. MARINE...None. && NEAR TERM...RJD SHORT TERM...REK LONG TERM...III AVIATION...DL
