WIDESPREAD CLOUDS COVERED MUCH OF THE REGION, EVEN BEHIND THE
"FRONT". RADAR WAS INDICATING A BAND OF LIGHT SHOWERS STREAMING
EAST ACROSS THE SOUTHERN THIRD OF THE AREA WITH VERY LITTLE OF

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM SATURDAY/...
AS OF 325 AM FRIDAY...THE NEXT STRONG COLD FRONT WILL MOVE
THROUGH THE AREA THIS EVENING AND SHOULD BE OFFSHORE BY DAWN
SATURDAY. AHEAD OF THE FRONT EXPECT AN INCREASE IN CLOUDS.
MOISTURE LOOKS LIMITED BUT THERE WILL BE ENOUGH FORCING WITH NEXT

FOR A FEW SHOWERS ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE NORTHERN ZONES. BEHIND THE
FRONT WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE WEST AND INCREASE TO 20 TO 30 MPH
WITH HIGHER GUSTS USHERING IN A VERY COLD AIRMASS INTO EASTERN NC
WITH TEMPERATURES FALLING INTO THE UPPER 30S TO LOWER 40S.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 345 AM FRI...AN ACTIVE PATTERN FOR THE LONG TERM AS A
SERIES OF SYSTEMS CROSS THE AREA WITH A ROLLER COASTER OF
TEMPERATURES EXPECTED THROUGH THE PERIOD. RECORD COLD TEMPS
LIKELY THIS COMING WEEKEND AS ARCTIC HIGH PRESSURE OOZES INTO THE
REGION...AND THEREFORE A FREEZE WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR ALL
ZONES EXCEPT THE OUTER BANKS.

THIS WEEKEND: MOTHERLOAD OF ARCTIC AIR SINKS SOUTH AND EAST THIS
WEEKEND AS 08/00Z GLOBAL MODEL SUITE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WRT
SYNOPTIC REGIME. SLOWLY FALLING THICKNESSES THROUGH THE DAY SAT
AS CAA RAMPS UP. IT WILL GET QUITE WINDY AS KEEP LAYER MIXING

LAPSE RATES. WINDS GUST UPWARDS OF 35-45 MPH...HIGHEST ALONG THE
COAST AND NEAR THE SOUNDS. MAY EVENTUALLY NEED A WIND ADVISORY
ISSUED FOR COASTAL LOCALES. FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS AS WELL DUE TO
THE GUSTY WINDS AND RELATIVE HUMIDITIES BOTTOMING OUT IN THE 20S
PERCENTILE SATURDAY AFTERNOON. NEAR STEADY OR SLOWLY FALLING
TEMPS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. HIGHS WILL GENERALLY BE IN THE

CONTINUES AND DEWPOINTS RAMP UP. LOWS WILL BE IN THE 50S INLAND TO
NEAR 60 COAST.

TUESDAY: GFS/CMC/ECMWF CONVERGE ON BRINGING NEXT COLD APPROACHING
TUESDAY AND PASSING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT. HAVE THEREFORE ENOUGH
CONFIDENCE TO RAISE POPS TO LIKELIES ON TUESDAY. HAVE INCLUDED
MENTION OF THUNDER AS THERE WILL BE AT LEAST WEAK INSTABILITY
PRESENT. HIGHS WILL REACH INTO THE 70S ONCE AGAIN.

WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY: LOOKS TO IMPROVE WITH FRONT PUSHING
OFFSHORE WITH COOLER 60S FOR HIGHS. HOWEVER...SOME INDICATIONS
THAT FRONT WILL STALL JUST SOUTH AND EAST OF THE AREA WITH
POTENTIAL COASTAL LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPING ALONG IT AND AFFECTING
E NC AS EARLY AS LATE WEDNESDAY. THIS POTENTIAL INDICATED WITH
SOME MEMBERS OF THE ENSEMBLE GEFS/EPS INDICATING LARGE VARIABILITY
ALONG THE SE COAST WRT TO MSLP. WILL RETAIN SMALL CHANCE POPS FOR
THE LATE WEDNESDAY/THURSDAY PERIOD.

&&

SKIES WILL CLEAR COMPLETELY AFTER SUNRISE AND WINDS WILL PICK UP
FROM THE WEST BETWEEN 15 AND 20 KNOTS. GUSTS COULD REACH UP TO 35
KNOTS FROM LATE MORNING INTO THE AFTERNOON AND THIS WILL IMPACT
ALL THE TAF SITES IN TERMS OF CROSSWINDS.

LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 345 AM FRI...VFR THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT. THE MAIN CONCERN
WILL BE WIND ON SATURDAY AS A DRY COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH. WINDS
WILL BE FROM THE WEST SOUTHWEST IN THE MORNING...BECOMING WEST
NORTHWEST IN THE AFTERNOON. SPEEDS WILL INCREASE QUICKLY FROM
10-20 KNOTS IN THE MORNING TO 20-30 KNOTS IN THE AFTERNOON. HIGH

AS OF 1200 PM FRIDAY...UPDATED FOR SCA EXPIRATION CENTRAL WATERS.

WATERS 10 TO 20 KT AND 20 TO 25 KT VICINITY OF DIAMOND BUOY EARLY
THIS MORNING. THE SECONDARY COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE
WATERS THIS MORNING WITH THE FLOW VEERING TO THE WEST AND
DIMINISHING TO 10 TO 15 KT LATER THIS MORNING THROUGH THIS
EVENING. THIS WILL ALLOW SEAS TO GRADUALLY SUBSIDE BELOW ADVISORY
LEVELS BY THIS AFTERNOON.

THE NEXT STRONG COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE WATERS LATE TONIGHT WITH
THE WEST TO SOUTHWEST FLOW 10 TO 20 KT BECOMING WEST BEHIND THE
FRONT AND INCREASING TO 20 TO 30 KT LATE TONIGHT. THIS WILL LEAD
TO 3 TO 5 FT SEAS BUILDING TO 5 TO 7 FT VERY LATE.

LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 345 AM FRI...GALES LIKELY FOR THE COASTAL WATERS/SOUNDS/AND
ALLIGATOR RIVER FOR SATURDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH EVENING...AND HAVE
HOISTED A GALE WARNING. PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL LOOSEN QUICKLY LATE
SATURDAY NIGHT THOUGH SEAS WILL TAKE A LITTLE WHILE LONGER TO
SUBSIDE AND WILL CONTINUE HIGH UNTIL SUNDAY. THE RIDGE WILL MOVE
OFF THE COAST SUNDAY EVENING WITH THE FLOW QUICKLY BECOMING
SOUTHWEST WHICH WILL CONTINUE INTO TUESDAY. AT THIS TIME IT
APPEARS THAT WINDS/SEAS WILL REMAIN JUST BELOW SCA MONDAY AND
TUESDAY.
