.NEAR TERM /TODAY/...
As of 4 AM Tue...Latest analysis shows two sfc lows, main low
off ILM and the secondary low btwn Hatteras and Lookout...with
the upper low over SC. Low becomes vertically stacked today and
lifts across Eastern NC. Latest radar imagery shows widespread
moderate to heavy rainfall across ENC early this morning, with
heaviest band now extending from Greene county into central
Carteret county averaging about 1-1.5"/hour. High res models
continue to show precip tapering off from SW to NE over the next
few hours...with the focus shifting towards the Outer Banks and
Albemarle Sound region. Flash Flood Watch continues through
early this morning. Flash Flood Warnings continue for the next
few hours, for the SW portions of the area as moderate to heavy
rainfall continues over locations that have seen 2-5" of
rainfall in the last 24 hours. While deepest moisture slides off

thunderstorms through the day as the stacked low tracks
overhead. Steep mid level lapse rates and cold temps aloft could
result in some small hail. Winds are now peaking, and should be
diminishing quickly after sunrise this morning. Wind advisory

the upper 50s/low 60s.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...

will be in the mid 70s to lower 80s then warm to 85 to 90 inland
and upper 70s to lower 80s beaches Thu through Mon. Lows will

showers/iso tstms late morning into the early evening. Forecast
soundings and guidance show low stratus developing late tonight
and early Wed morning, with the potential for IFR ceilings.

flow around offshore high pres. Isold late day tsra poss but
just a very small chc will see any sub VFR impact a terminal.
