Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Newport/Morehead City NC
639 PM EST Wed Dec 12 2018

.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure will continue to build over the region tonight.
Another strong storm system will affect the area Friday into the
weekend. High pressure will gradually build in from the west
early next week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
As of 635 PM Wednesday...No major changes needed to the current
forecast. High pressure continues over south Georgia early this
evening. High clouds continue to stream into the region and will
persist through the overnight hours. The extensive cloud cover
will hold most temperatures in the low/mid 30s with upper 30s to
around 40 Outer Banks.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/...
As of 230 PM Wed...High pressure over the area will gradually
shift off the coast Thu, as next system strengthens over TX and
approaches from the west. Weak boundary associated with this
system may push into the area during the afternoon. Scattered
to broken high clouds and low level thickness values support
temps a few degrees warmer than previous days, with highs 55-60
degrees. Could see a non-diurnal temp curve Thursday night, with
increasing clouds and WAA ahead of approaching system.
Overnight lows in the upper 30s/low 40s inland and mid/upper 40s
along the coast. Slight chance of showers late across the SW
portions of the cwa, but expect precip to hold off until after
12z.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
As of 200 PM Wed...Heavy rain is expected for the first half of
the weekend, and showers could linger through most of Sunday.
Another storm system may form off the coast early next week,
which would bring another round of wet weather to the area. High
pressure will build in from the thereafter.

Friday Night and Saturday...Deep upper trough with a cut off low
will reach the Deep South Friday night, with a warm front
stretching east and north of the area at this time. Large
moisture feed from the Caribbean will pump temperatures and
dewpoints into the 60s, as surface cyclogenesis over the area
enhances lift. This will be a recipe for heavy rain over the
area, with storm total rainfall now a little bit over 4 inches
for the southern coast, and 2-4 for the rest of Eastern NC.
Still have likely to categorical PoPs from Friday night through
most of Saturday, tapering off to chance PoPs into Saturday
night. A few strong to severe thunderstorms are also possible
given the strong dynamic environment and MUCAPE values 500-800
J/kg. High temps will be quite warm with mid to upper 60s
expected Saturday.

Sunday through Tuesday...There remains some model differences
for Sunday and Monday. The ECMWF has been consistent over the
past few runs showing surface cyclogenesis off the NC coast
Sunday into Monday as a strong upper level low moves overhead.
This would keep rain showers around both Sunday and Monday. The
GFS is more progressive with the upper trough and shows dry
weather for both days. Will keep chance PoPs for this time
period to hedge in between both model solutions. At any rate,
Tuesday looks drier with high pressure moving in from the west.
Temperatures will close to normal with highs in the 50s and lows
in the 30s and 40s.

.AVIATION /00Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
Short Term /through Thursday/...
As of 635 PM Wed...Widespread high clouds will continue to
overspread the region tonight and should keep any fog at bay
tonight. VFR conditions should prevail through the TAF cycle
with light winds as high pressure builds in from the southwest.

Long Term /Thursday night through Monday/...
As of 230 PM Wed...VFR conditions Thursday night, gradually
deteriorating Friday and Friday night as a slow moving very wet
system moves through. Could see VFR return Sat through Mon.

&&

.MARINE...
Short term /through Thursday/...
As of 640 PM Wednesday...Marine forecast is in good shape with
very light gradient in places across area waters with high
pressure extending from southern Georgia to southeast Virginia.
Have changed winds to Variable at around 5 knots to better
capture current trends. Seas will generally be 3-5 feet
overnight, subsiding to 2-3 feet for Thursday as high pressure
slowly shifts offshore.

Long Term /Thursday night through Monday/...
As of 230 PM Wed...A strong storm system will be passing
through the southeast producing an extended period of hazardous
winds/seas beginning Friday and continuing through Sunday.
Friday into Saturday the flow will veer from southeast to
southwest, eventually becoming northwest Sunday. Seas will
build, peaking Friday night into Saturday as high as 9-12 feet
in the central waters from Oregon Inlet to Ocracoke. Strongest
winds will peak Friday into Friday night at 20-30 knots, with a
few gusts to gale force possible in the central waters. Winds
will slowly diminish Saturday into Sunday as low pressure moves
off to the northeast, but seas take longer to subside from south
to north, remaining elevated into early next week.
