Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wilmington NC
302 PM EDT Sun May 31 2020

.SYNOPSIS...
Cooler and much drier weather filtering across the area
tonight, and will remain in place through Tuesday as high
pressure moves overhead. The high will move offshore Tuesday
with warming temperatures Wednesday through Friday. Rain and
thunderstorm chances return late week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
The mid-level trof axis will sweep across the Carolinas late
this aftn thru early evening. A decent mid-level vort providing
the push will pass just to our north but enough UVVS and avbl
moisture to produce temporary clouds in the low and mid levels
thru the mid evening hrs. The best forcing for low chance Pops
for a shower or even a stray tstorm will remain across the
coastal ILM SC Counties this aftn or early evening, somewhat
separate from that vort. After the upper trof passage, a
secondary NE surge overnight thru midday Mon. Went slightly hier
for winds tonight as decent CAA occurs along with drier air
with 50s dewpoints spreading across the FA, possibly a sub50
dewpoint by morning. Overall, dropped a degree or 2 from
previous lows fcst. Dry conditions continue thru Monday and Mon
night as sfc high pressure and NW flow aloft keep the FA free of
pcpn and clouds. Could be flat topped Cu Mon especially closer
to the resultant wind boundary, aka sea breeze. Lows Mon night,
stayed at or a degree or 2 below guidance consensus with rad
cooling conditions setting up at or just after sunset Mon.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
With surface high pressure offshore and a mid level ridge over
the southeast, a warming trend will start on Tuesday, though
high temps will still be below normal in the low 80s. Will see
increase in mid clouds during the day as an upper level impulse
moves across and a little breezy, but overall beautiful day. Dry
weather continues into Wednesday, with lows Tuesday night in
the mid 60s and highs Wednesday approaching 90. A surface trough
sets up over central Carolinas Wednesday into Wednesday night,
but with abundant dry air aloft not expecting any precipitation.
A nocturnal low level jet looks to develop Tuesday and
Wednesday night, with elevated surface winds persisting during
overnight hours. Lows Wednesday night slightly above normal
around 70 degrees.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
Above normal temps continue late week into the weekend, along
with return of rain chances. Slight pops forecasted for
Thursday, with enough instability available may see some
scattered storms along sea breeze in the afternoon. An upper
level shortwave moves across the area late Thursday into Friday,
advecting moisture across the area and increasing rain chances
across coastal Carolinas. Given variability between model runs,
have kept pops modest on Friday, but could see this increasing
the next couple of days if strong signal remains. Increased
moisture and associated instability remains on Saturday, keeping
chance thunder in the forecast. A front approaches from the
north Saturday into Sunday. High temps Thursday through Sunday
around 90 degrees, with lows in the low 70s. Dewpoints in the
low 70s Thursday to Sunday afternoons will create pretty humid
conditions.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Cold front is well offshore, leaving a cooler and drier
atmosphere. However, residual moisture and the seabreeze front
has been able to produce a cloud deck with MVFR ceilings at
2000ft. This was especially prevalent along the NE SC coast,
which may linger for the next few hours. Otherwise, VFR
ceilings at 7-10 kft dominate the area. The seabreeze and
pressure gradient has created gusts at all terminals, in the
18-22 knot range. Gusts and sustained winds should calm by
sunset. Skies clear out during the overnight hours, and winds
start to veer easterly towards the end of the 18Z TAF period.

Extended Outlook...Mainly VFR conditions are expected through
Thursday.

&&

.MARINE...
Through Monday Night:
Raised a brief SCA for the secondary surge of NE winds later this
evening thru mid-daytime Mon morning. This due to a re-tightened sfc
pg and decent CAA with drier, ie. lower dewpoints, moving across 70s
SST waters. Seas will already be heightened from the initial surge
this morning into the aftn. Overall, looking at 15-25 kt speeds and
3 to 6 ft seas...with the 6 footers in the vicinity of Cape Fear and
Romain respectively. Wind driven waves will dominate the seas
spectrum with periods running 4 to 6 seconds. The center of the sfc
high will drop across the Carolinas late Mon aftn and drift across
and just off the Carolina Coasts by Tue daybreak.

Tuesday through Friday:
SW winds 10 kts early Tuesday strengthens throughout the day to
around 15 kts Tuesday night. SW winds 15-20 kts continues
Wednesday to Thursday with high pressure offshore. Current
forecast keeps gusts around 20 kts Wed and Thursday, below SCA
criteria. Winds remain out of the SW Friday, weakening to 10-15
kts. Seas 2 ft Tuesday increase to 3-4 ft Tuesday night through
Thursday, with 5 footers in the outer coastal waters Wednesday
night. Seas decrease a bit during the day Thursday into Friday
to around 3 ft. Persisting 1- 2 ft 9 sec ESE swell Tuesday will
dissipate by Wednesday. Seas will be dominated by a SW wind wave
Tuesday through Friday.
