Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Newport/Morehead City NC
1254 PM EST Fri Jan 6 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
Weak low pressure will move up the coast tonight. A stronger area
of low pressure will move offshore Friday night through Saturday
night. Strong cold high pressure will then build south into the
region through early next week. Another cold front will approach
from the west on Wednesday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
As of 10 AM Fri...Today will be the set up for our first winter
weather event. Conditions are currently quiet and dry as the
sunny tries to peeking through the clouds. Meanwhile a shortwave
exiting the central/southern Rockies MTNS will strength over the
southern plains and help increase moisture advection and
isentropic lift across the Southeast region as clouds will
gradually lower this afternoon...ahead of the winter storm. Latest
Hi-Res models continue to have a good agreement with conditions to
remain dry through about 19Z, then toward 0Z as low level moisture
increases an initial shot of light rain showers will streak across
our area from the southwest. Made minor tweaks to the POP grids
and I kept chances in the 20% to 30% range through late afternoon
to match up with our surrounding offices to our south and west.
However if model trends continue, we may have to increase chances
for rain on the front end a bit. Highs today generally 45-50, or
about the same as Thursday.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
As of 230 PM Thursday, as initial surface low moves away, will
see a break in the precipitation although skies will remain mostly
cloudy. Moisture from the developing surface low in the
northeastern Gulf of Mexico will reach our southwestern counties
fairly quickly early Friday and ramp PoPs up from slight chance in
the morning to likely over the southwestern tier in the afternoon.
High temperatures will reach the lower 50s. QPF totals will be
fairly light on Friday, totaling generally one- tenth of an inch
or less.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
***UPDATE AT 10 AM...Mainland Hyde, Mainland Dare and Outer Banks
 Dare Counties have been added to the Winter Storm Warning due the
 potential of snow/ice. The Winter Storm Watch continues for
 Greene, Pitt, Martin, Washington, and Tyrrell counties for friday
 night and Saturday. A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for
 the remainder of eastern NC.***

As of 400 PM Thu...Winter Wx is likely across Eastern North
Carolina Fri night into Sat...with accumulating snow/sleet, in
addition to possibly light freezing rain. Though uncertainty still
remains regarding exact p-type and accumulations...forecast
confidence is increasing that several inches of snow/sleet will be
possible across portions of the Coastal Plain and Albemarle Sound
counties. An arctic airmass will build over the area Sunday into
early next week, with very cold temperatures.

Friday night through Saturday Night... Secondary sfc low expected
to develop to the south Fri night then lift NE offshore of the
coast thru Sat. There is a high bust potential for this storm as
the trend in the models is warmer than previous runs with a low
track closer to the coast and thus a mixture of rain and wintry
precipitation types expected. The area with the best chance for
measurable snow would be across the the extreme north and
northwest with a wintry mix south that will limit snowfall
accumulations but will still create driving hazards due to the
potential for sleet and light freezing rain. If the low tracks
closer to the coast, then rain would dominate and only minor
accumulations of sleet and snow would occur saturday as the low
pulls away. This a very difficult and fluid forecast situation as
there will likely be a sharp gradient in where the wintry weather
occurs and where predominately rain falls. Residents should
continue to monitor the NWS forecasts for the latest information
on this developing weather situation. Continued categorical PoPs
and made further refinements to the p-type, and decreased snow
amounts due the warming trend in the latest model run.

Highs Sat will hold in the 30s all areas with lows Sat night in
the upper teens inland and mid/upper 20s along the coast.

Sunday through Wednesday...Cold arctic high pressure will build
in through Mon then begin to slide off the coast Tuesday. Dry
weather expected through Tue...with very cold airmass over the
area. Highs in 30s Sun and Mon with lows in teens inland to 20s
cst Sun night and Mon night. Highs could struggle to reach
freezing in some locations Sun and Mon. Wind chill values likely
in the single digits most locations Sunday and Monday mornings.
Temps will moderate a bit Tue as thicknesses increase with 40s
area wide. Wednesday the flow is forecast to become southerly
ahead of the next approaching cold front with temps warming to
around 60 and a small threat for showers.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Short Term /Through Saturday Afternoon/...
As of 1245 PM Fri...VFR conditions will prevail through this
evening ahead of the upcoming winter storm. Ceilings will lower to MVFR
levels as rain moves in. Rain will turn to freezing rain around
midnight at PGV and ISO, but the changeover won't take place at
EWN and OAJ until near sunrise. Winds will also pick up overnight
with gusts out of the NNE 20 to 25 knots. Freezing rain will
change to snow and sleet later in the morning at PGV and ISO, and
early afternoon at OAJ and EWN. Ceilings and visibilities will
border IFR conditions but, have chosen to hold off on putting IFR
in TAFs for now.

Long Term /Friday Night through Monday/...
As of 330 AM Thu... Sub-VFR conditions likely to continue through
Sat evening, with rain initially, then likely changing over the
snow Sat all terminals. Cold high pressure will build over the
area Sat night through Sunday with gusty northerly winds forecast
Sat and Sunday and mostly clear skies late Sat night through Mon.

&&

.MARINE...
Short Term /Tonight through Friday/...
As of 1000 AM Thursday...current forecast in good shape; no update
needed. Latest buoy obs are showing N/NE 10-17 knots and seas 3-5
feet across our coastal waters. Winds will be generally NE at 5-15
knots this afternoon should back to more northerly today as
surface low zips quickly offshore during the day. Per local
SWAN/NWPS, seas will be 3-5 feet for the remainder of today.

Long Term /Friday through Monday/...
As of 430 AM Thu..Dangerous boating conditions are expected over
the waters this weekend as developing low pressure moves off of
the NC coast. N/NE winds 10-20 kt Friday could be build seas to 4
to 6 ft over the outer northern and central waters. The stronger
northerly winds will develop Friday night and are expected to peak
on Saturday with Gales possible. Winds will continue strong 20-30
KT Sunday night then begin to gradually subside Monday to to 10 to
15 KT late. Seas will build to around 10 - 11 ft Saturday and
remain elevated at 6 ft or higher through Monday afternoon.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
***UPDATE AT 1000 AM Thu... Coastal Flood Advisory in effect
 starting at 7 am Saturday for the soundside locations of the
 Outer Banks and Downeast Carteret County. Gusty N/NW winds will
 develop Sat and continue into Sunday night. Given the fetch and
 duration, minor water level rises of 2 to 3 ft for locations
 adjacent to the southern Pamlico Sound, mainly areas from Oregon
 Inlet south to Downeast Carteret county. Extratropical storm
 surge guidance suggest minor water level rises may also be
 possible for the northern Outer Banks, though confidence in
 oceanside is less than soundside at this time.
