Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Newport/Morehead City NC
331 AM EDT MON AUG 29 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
Tropical Depression Eight will approach the North Carolina coast from
the southeast today and Tuesday, then lift northeast of the area Tuesday
night and Wednesday. A cold front is forecast to push through the
area Friday with high pressure building in from the north this
weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/...
As of 315 AM Mon...A Tropical Storm Watch remains in effect for Oregon
Inlet to Cape Lookout. TD 8 is approx 260 miles SE of Cape Hatteras
this morning, and is forecast to strengthen into a Tropical Storm
as it moves NW towards the NC coast later today and tonight.

Latest radar imagery shows scattered showers and isolated
thunderstorms coming in off the water this morning, and expect
this to continue through much of the day...with best chances late
morning and afternoon. Instability will remain limited today with
widespread cloud cover, though with PWAT values around 2 inches
the main threat still looks like heavy downpours which could
result in localized flooding. Low level thickness values and
partly/mostly cloudy skies support highs in the mid to upper 80s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT/...
As of 315 AM Mon...TD 8 will is forecast to gradually strengthen
into a Tropical Storm tonight as it moves NW towards the NC coast.
Scattered showers and tstms could become more widespread along the
coast overnight into Tuesday morning. Increased pops along the
immediate coast slightly from previous forecast. The main threat
will continue to be the potential for heavy downpours with
localized flooding. Overnight lows in the 70s.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
As of 315 AM Monday, Tropical Depression 8 will move near the NC
coast before turning abruptly NNE/NE Tuesday afternoon and
evening and gradually moving away from the coast on Wednesday in
response to frontal boundary diving south into eastern NC. Low
confidence in forecast late in the extended period as medium range
models show various solutions with tropical systems.

Tuesday through Wednesday...Track guidance continues to move
Tropical Depression 8 toward the NC coast with strengthening to a
minimal tropical storm before making a turn to the NNE/NE Tuesday
afternoon and evening as a cold front sinks south into eastern NC.
The worst conditions associated with the system would appear to
occur Tuesday afternoon with some gusty winds along the central
Outer Banks and offshore, along with periods of heavy rainfall and
perhaps some minor beach erosion. Probably a sharp moisture
gradient across the region Tuesday with some sunshine allowing
high temperatures to approach 90 inland, but with clouds/showers
holding temperatures in the mid 80s beaches. Wrap-around moisture
associated with exiting system lingers along the coast Wednesday.
Since the precipitation will be showery in nature, have continued
previous trend of 40-50 percent PoPs in the forecast Tuesday into
Wednesday.

Wednesday night through Friday...GFS/Canadian show a parade of 3
systems to affect our region between Tuesday and Friday, while the
ECMWF spins up current Gulf system (Tropical Depression 9) into a
major storm and moves it off our coast Friday. Tons of uncertainty
and little confidence in the varied solutions, so have opted to
keep a low rain chance in the forecast through this period, mainly
near the coast.

Saturday through Sunday...Cold front with strong high pressure to
the north should finally push the deeper moisture offshore by the
weekend. ECMWF/GFS show major storm offshore and moving away
Saturday, but much uncertainty in this solution. It does appear
that a shot of drier and cooler air will be in store for the
weekend with highs dropping back into the low/mid 80s and
nighttime lows into the mid 60s over much of the CWA.

&&

.AVIATION /07Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Short Term /through tonight/...
As of 1 AM Mon...Latest obs show pred VFR conditions, but expect
conditions to deteriorate over the next few hours. Medium to high
confidence that sub-VFR conditions will develop overnight and
Monday morning, with periods of LIFR possible. PGV/ISO and to a
lesser extent EWN/OAJ observed rainfall this afternoon, helping
maintain a very moist low level profile. Forecast soundings
indicate a weak surface- based inversion after 06Z with light NE
winds, which may decouple late. VFR conditions should return
between 13-14Z, however it is possible that MVFR conditions linger
a few hours longer given a weak wind field. Scattered showers and
thunderstorms are expected again this afternoon which may produce
sub-VFR conditions briefly at all TAF sites.

Long Term /Tuesday through Friday/...
As of 315 AM Monday, periods of MVFR ceilings will be likely in
rain bands associated with Tropical Depression 8 Tuesday night and
Wednesday before the system accelerates away from the area
Wednesday evening. While quite a bit of uncertainty exists with
the model solutions regarding the evolution and track of tropical
systems, should see primarily VFR conditions Thursday into Friday
as some drier air moves into the region behind a cold front.

&&

.MARINE...
Short Term /through Monday/...
As of 315 AM Mon...A Tropical Storm Watch remains in effect for
the coastal waters from Oregon Inlet to Cape Lookout...and SCA for
the northern and southern waters. Latest obs show E/NE winds 5-15
knots with seas 3-5 feet. Currently, TD 8 is approx 260 miles SE
of Cape Hatteras, and is forecast to strengthen into a Tropical
Storm as it moves NW towards the NC coast later today and
tonight. Starting to see some long period ESE swell impacting the
coastal waters with seas gradually building. Gradient will tighten
today, with NE winds becoming 10-20 knots. Increasing long period
swell combined with wind wave today will allow seas to build to
4-7 feet this afternoon and continue overnight. High rip current
threat today for all beaches.

Long Term /Tuesday through Friday/...
As of 320 AM Monday, Tropical Depression 8 will approach the
coastal waters Tuesday morning before turning more NNE/NE Tuesday
afternoon and evening, then moving away from the coast Wednesday.
Some wind gusts to 50 knots are possible in the central waters
Tuesday afternoon and evening, before subsiding fairly quickly on
Wednesday afternoon. A strong cold front will move offshore early
Friday bringing moderately N/NE winds. Seas will peak at 11-14
feet late Tuesday evening into Tuesday night before subsiding
dramatically on Wednesday. By Wednesday night, seas should drop to
3-5 feet before increasing again behind the cold front on Friday.

Given long period swell energy and strong winds, the rip current
risk will remain high through at least midweek.
