10What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this flash flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Raleigh, NC wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at Sep 14, 10:00 PM EDT, 1 hour 56 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Sep 14, 10:00 PM EDT, 1 hour 56 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Raleigh NC 1000 PM EDT Fri Sep 14 2018 .SYNOPSIS... Tropical Storm Florence will move very slowly west to southwest across northeastern South Carolina tonight, and across northern South Carolina Saturday. A turn northward is expected across the western Carolina's Sunday and Sunday night. Major flooding is expected across much of eastern and southeastern NC tonight and Saturday. The flooding threat will extend into western North Carolina Sunday. && .NEAR TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/... As of 1000 PM Friday... All Warnings, Watches, Advisories remain in place. Flash flood emergencies, water rescues already underway in the Goldsboro area. More to come. After landfall this morning near Wrightsville Beach, Florence continued to move slowly west and inland over far eastern South Carolina (just west of Myrtle Beach). Several bands of very heavy rain have been rotating NW and onshore for hours and hours it seems across southeastern NC prompting as much as 23 inches of rain near Morehead City, with as much as 10 inches already into our Coastal Plain region (centered in Wayne County). Unfortunately, satellite and radar indicate the primary rain band continued to feed NW into these same areas (Cape Carteret to New Bern to near Kinston and Goldsboro), and the cloud tops have been cooling (radar reflectivities increasing) in the past hour. Hourly rainfall rates in excess of 2-3 inches have been occurring near Trenton to Kinston to near Goldsboro. There were numerous roads flooded and/or washed out in the Goldsboro area with at least 5 fresh water flooding rescues in Wayne County since 500 PM. Several other rain bands have been producing rainfall rates of nearly 2 inches per hour elsewhere, but the bands were not as intense and training as much over the same locations as the primary band. Still, flash flooding was ongoing in many counties from Raleigh east and south. It appears that the flooding will get much worse in the primary rain band in the next 3-6 hours as CAMS indicates continued intensification and expansion of this band northwest into Wayne and Johnston Counties - where flooding will become potentially catastrophic (we already are issuing Flash Flood Emergency in the Goldsboro and Wayne County area). Additional rainfall in the next 6- 12 hours will likely approach 10 inches (producing storm totals of 20+ inches from Kinston to Goldsboro), with 5-10 inches from Smithfield to Wilson to near Raleigh. This and other bands should slowly begin to ease SW in time (as Florence crawls westward). This would place areas from Clinton to Fayetteville, Lumberton, Raeford, and Laurinburg in the life threatening flooding. Winds will continue to be very strong in the bands (with gusts to 60 MPH from Goldsboro to Fayetteville and Clinton, with up to 50 mph at Raleigh and Southern Pines. Expect numerous trees and power lines to be downed along with continued power outages. There were already 65,000 without power in Wake County where winds have gusted to 48 mph at Raleigh-Durham (RDU). Fayetteville (FAY) has reported a 67 mph gust with many trees down. Saturday... The rain bands will slowly shift west with time, with the southern areas expected to be hit with major, potentially catastrophic flooding. See the latest Warnings and Watches for details on specifics. Winds will slowly spin down, but still gust to nearly 50 mph at times as Florence edges west with time. && .SHORT TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/... As of 230 PM Friday... The remnant circulation of Florence will move slowly westward Saturday night and then begin to lift north into the Appalachians on Sunday. As the surface low slips west, a persistent southerly, convergent flow will produce an arc of widespread moderate to heavy rain across the state. The greatest rain coverage will be across the southern Piedmont and Sandhills. Rainfall amounts during the period will average between 2 and 5 inches with lesser amounts across the far northeast Piedmont and northern Coastal Plain. This additional rain is likely to exasperate anticipated flooding issues across the southern tier including the Neuse, Cape Fear, Black and Yadkin river basins where river flooding may become extreme. Windy conditions with winds of 15 to 25 MPH with gusts near 40 MPH on Saturday evening will gradually abate as the remnant low weakens and pushes away. Given the wet soil, additional issues with falling trees are expected. && .LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/... As of 230 PM Friday... The remnant circulation of Florence is expected to lift northeast through the lower Ohio Valley and northeastern United States Monday and Tuesday. This will mean the trailing rain bands and associated weather hazards will come to an end by Sunday night or Monday for the region. The trailing surface trough will keep a lingering chance of mainly diurnal showers and storms into Tuesday afternoon and possibly Wednesday afternoon. Very warm and humid conditions will also linger through the rest of the week. Lows in the lower to mid 70s (well above normal) with highs in the 80s. && .AVIATION /00Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... As of 955 PM Friday... Strong winds to 40-50kt the problem tonight into Saturday. Mainly MVFR ceilings will prevail through the TAF period, amidst tropically-moist, nely low level flow between high pressure over the Northeast and Hurricane Florence. A shield of heavy, tropical precipitation with reduced visibilities, and stronger and more numerous outer bands of showers and storms, will pivot westward across cntl NC through the night. More adverse conditions expected with additional bands with strong winds and heavy rain Saturday. Outlook: Florence will eventually arc across SC Saturday night, then lift nwd and newd through the Appalachians through early next week. Windy conditions, periods of continued tropical downpours will result, with improving conditions for Tuesday and Wednesday. && .RAH WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... Hurricane Warning for NCZ078-089.
