Wednesday through Saturday...High pressure will build into the
region from the Mid-Atlantic states while a weak inverted trough
or coastal low pressure system begins to develop off the NC
coast. These features will result in NE flow with lingering
showers Wednesday morning through Thursday for coastal portions
of the area (mainly east of HWY 17). Dry weather anticipated for
interior portions of Eastern NC through midweek.

An area of low pressure is forecast to develop off the SE Coast
near or along a frontal boundary Tuesday and linger off the SE
and Mid-Atlantic coast through late week, possibly into early
next weekend. There is still quite a bit of uncertainty in
track/strength of low, though guidance has been trending
westward towards the East Coast. The low has potential to become
sub-tropical and NHC is keeping an eye on it. Surface
development becomes enhanced by upper level support as low
pressure aloft becomes cut-off from main flow, allowing the
developing low pressure system to become more vertically
stacked, with surface pressure falling below 1000 mb. It is too
early for specifics, but if trends continue several coastal
related impacts will be possible for Eastern NC, including:
rough surf, dangerous rip currents, beach erosion, ocean
overwash and coastal flooding. See Tides/Coastal Flooding
section below for additional information.

.AVIATION /18Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Short Term /through Tonight/...
As of 215 PM Sunday...High confidence in VFR conditions to
continue through most of the TAF period. Onshore flow will
continue to bring in scattered to broken clouds btw 4-10kft
through tonight. With light E-SE flow some TAF sites KPGV/KISO
may get to MVFR late tonight, but confidence is low at this
time. Some showers are possible for Monday, but given
uncertainty on location and timing, will not include showers in
the TAF forecast.

Long Term /Monday night through Friday/...
As of 320 AM Sunday...VFR conditions will prevail most of the
period. Some scattered showers expected Mon ahead of next front
with brief sub VFR possible through Tuesday night. Return to VFR
expected for Wednesday and Thursday as high pressure builds
south over the region.

&&

.MARINE...
Short Term /through Monday/...
As of 215 PM Sunday...The latest buoy observations are showing
ESE/SE winds 10-20 knots and seas 5-8 ft along the coastal
waters. ESE/SE 10-20 knots will continue through Monday as high
pressure dominates the area from the east. Seas will remain
elevated in the 5 to 8 ft range with the highest seas along the
central waters. Small craft conditions will continue through
most of the week.

Long Term /Monday night through Friday/...
As of 215 PM Sunday...A cold front will push through the waters
Monday night into early Tuesday morning, with moderate to strong
N/NE winds developing behind it. Dangerous marine conditions
will be possible mid to late week. An area of low pressure is
forecast to develop off the SE Coast near or along a frontal
boundary Tuesday and linger off the SE and Mid-Atlantic coast
through late week, possibly into early next weekend. There is
still quite a bit of uncertainty in track/strength of low,
though guidance has been trending westward towards the East
Coast. The low has potential to become sub-tropical and NHC is
keeping an eye on it. Higher than normal uncertainty with
regards to marine conditions midweek into next weekend due to
developing low pressure off the coast. SCA conditions expected
for all coastal waters through the period, with SCAs possible
for the Pamlico and Albemarle Sounds due to gusty winds Tuesday
and Wednesday. Gale force winds and double digit seas will be
possible mid week into early next weekend.

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
As of 215 PM Sun...An area of low pressure is forecast to
develop off the SE Coast near or along a frontal boundary
Tuesday and linger off the SE and Mid-Atlantic coast through
late week, possibly into early next weekend. There is still
quite a bit of uncertainty in track/strength of low, though
guidance has been trending westward towards the East Coast. The
low has potential to become sub-tropical and NHC is keeping an
eye on it.

It is too early for specifics, but if trends continue several
coastal related impacts will be possible for Eastern NC,
including: rough surf, dangerous rip currents, beach erosion,
ocean overwash and coastal flooding. Beaches north of Cape
Hatteras will be most vulnerable to erosion and overwash, though
Cape Hatteras to Cape Lookout will also be a concern.
