Area forecast discussion, Apr 30, 2:01 PM EDT, 2 hours 1 minute before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Newport/Morehead City NC
201 PM EDT Sun Apr 30 2017
.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure over the Atlantic will extend into the area
through tonight producing a warm southerly flow which will lead
to near record highs over Eastern North Carolina today. A cold
front will approach from the west Monday and cross Eastern NC
Tuesday morning. High pressure will build in behind the front
Wednesday. A strong and slow moving low pressure area will
affect the region late this week.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
As of 1100 AM Sunday...minor adjustments to sky cover into mid
afternoon but forecast generally on track. Scattered to broken
CU streets developed quickly this morning due to moist low
levels. Coverage expected to thin this afternoon due to dry
conditions above 3000 ft along with inland push of mostly clear
sea breeze zone. Given relativley dry atmosphere and subsidence
inversion around 700 MB, do not expect any convective precip
development. Temps on track for highs near 90 inland and 80s
coast.
/Previous discussion/
As of 615 AM Sunday...S/SW flow will continue around Atlantic
surface high pressure across the Carolinas through tonight and
this will lead to another day of near record warmth across the
region (see climate section below). Widespread low clouds across
the area early this morning will dissipate by mid morning with
mostly sunny skies in the afternoon with highs within a few
degrees of 90 inland and low to mid 80s coast. Can't rule out an
isolated afternoon thunderstorm along the sea breeze this
afternoon but not high enough to include in the forecast.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM MONDAY/...
As of 300 AM Sunday...High pressure will continue to extend
into the region producing a warm S/SW flow. Guidance is
indicating that widespread low clouds will develop again by late
evening. Overnight lows will range from around 70 beaches to
the mid to upper 60s inland.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
As of 345 am Sunday... Models remain in good agreement through
mid week with progressive upper low moving from plains into
Great Lakes breaking down upper ridge over SE US Sunday night
into Tuesday, followed by zonal flow Wednesday. The flow will
become more amplified late this week with the models indicating
the potential for a strong upper low to affect the southeast and
mid Atlantic region. This low has the potential for heavy rain
and possible severe weather towards the end of the week.
Monday through Wednesday... The mid-upper level ridge will
continue to break down with the approach of the cold front on
Monday and slowly cross the region Mon night into early Tuesday.
Most all the models continue to show good precip coverage
across the area Monday night into early Tuesday and will
continue likely POPs this period. The cold front will be
offshore by Tuesday morning, but showers may linger during the
morning. Any lingering showers will tamper off from west to east
as high pressure builds in from the north...leading to skies
becoming mostly sunny/clear through Wednesday.
Temps on Monday will continue to be warm with highs low/mid 80s
inland and upper 70s/around 80 along the beaches. Temperature then
cool to around 80 inland and low/mid 70s along the coast, after
the cold front Tuesday and Wednesday.
Thursday through Saturday... A deep upper level trof will dig
down into the Southwest/Southern Plains region of the country
enhancing the development of a significant low pressure system.
00z ECMWF has becoming in better agreement with GFS and
Canadian model with the low developing near the low/mid Miss
valley and lift northeast...remaining west and north of Eastern
NC...keeping our area in the warm/moist sector. This will have
the potential for severe weather and heavy rain on Friday into
Saturday. thursday will remain warm in the low 80s inland and
low/mid 70s OBX, but a cooler temp trend will start Friday with
highs in the 70s.
&&
.AVIATION /18Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Short Term /Through 18Z Monday/...
As of 130 PM Sunday...VFR conditions expected through this
evening with fair weather warm sector conditions prevailing.
S-SW flow expected to produce another period of MVFR CIGs after
06Z with some IFR CIGs 10Z-13Z. Lower stratus/SCU lifting to
broken-scattered VFR CU by 15Z. Tightening pres gradient will
keep winds from decoupling overnight and preclude any fog
development. SSW winds will gust to 20 KT this afternoon and to
around 25 KT Monday.
Long Term /Monday through Thursday/...
As of 345 am Sunday...A cold front will be move across the area
Mon night into early Tue...bringing an increase of showers
and thunderstorms... leading to sub VFR conditions. Then high
pressure builds in behind the front Tue through Wed. Possible
sub- VFR Thursday due to scattered showers/thunderstorms.
