26What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Newport/Morehead City, NC wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Feb 15, 6:57 AM EST, 33 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Feb 15, 6:57 AM EST, 33 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Newport/Morehead City NC
657 AM EST Mon Feb 15 2021
.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure briefly builds in from the north today. A dynamic
storm system will approach from the south tonight, with a warm
front lifting through the area overnight. Then a cold front will
push through the forecast area tomorrow. After another brief
period of high pressure another strong storm system will move
through the region Thursday into Friday. High pressure then
builds over the area this weekend.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
As of 650 AM Mon...High pressure will build in at the surface
today, however with warm southwesterly flow aloft, the low level
inversion will remain strong over most of the area, leading to
continued widespread low clouds and cold air damming.
Temperatures are not expected to move much through the day over
the coastal plain, with highs mostly in the low 40s. Closer to
the coast, a few peaks of sun, could allow for slightly more
warming, and expect highs in the upper 40s to around 50. Given
the moist low levels, and continued warm air advection aloft,
patchy drizzle or widely scattered light showers are possible
today, with the best chances being over the coastal plain.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM TUESDAY/...
As of 310 AM Mon...Deep longwave trough over the
central US will consolidate as the upper ridge strengthens over
the eastern Atlantic tonight. This will result in a westward
shift of the storm track from recent days, with low pressure
developing over the northern Gulf of Mexico and Deep South
today. This low will then track up the east coast, just west of
the I-95 corridor, with a warm front extending eastward, which
will lift through the area tonight.
The main concern overnight continues to be the threat of severe
weather behind this warm front, as rapid warm advection is
expected to develop with temperatures rising 20 or more degrees
over the span of 6-9 hours. This will bring in rich moisture and
the potential for instability on the order of 1000-1500 J/kg.
Strong dynamics will also be present in the form of 0-6 km shear
60+ kts, and SRH values 300+ m/s2, which will favor supercell
development. This will of course to lead to the threat for all
severe hazards, including damaging wind gusts, hail, and
isolated tornadoes. The two big questions that are unknown at
this time, which will determine the scope and magnitude of the
severe threat tonight, will be the degree of warming across the
area, and how far inland the low level inversion will dissipate
because of this warming.
Shower activity will increase late in the evening from west to
east, with a possible broken line of convection forming and
moving across the area overnight into early Tuesday morning.
Have increasing PoPs overnight, coming up to categorical for a
several hour period early Tuesday morning.
&&
.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
As of 4 AM Mon...A cold front will push offshore Tuesday morning,
followed by high pressure building in through Wednesday. A strong
frontal system will impact the area Thursday and Friday. High
pressure returns this weekend into early next week.
Tuesday through Wednesday...Guidance has generally sped up the
frontal progression for Tuesday morning with the primary band of
prefrontal moisture now pushing off the Outer Banks around sunrise,
the initial cold front pushing through mid-to-late morning, and a
reinforcing/backdoor cold front Tuesday evening. A few light showers
are possible with the initial front, justifying low end chance POPs
lingering through late Tuesday morning, but dry conditions expected
thereafter. Temperature advection will be modest behind the initial
front, but drier low level air and subsidence aloft will allow skies
to clear by Tuesday afternoon, with temps remaining well above
normal through the day. Stronger CAA arrives with the evening
backdoor front as high pressure building over the Northeast begins
to ridge down the Eastern Seaboard. This ridging will continue to
dominate Wednesday.
Wednesday Night through Friday...A strong shortwave rounding the
base of the broad upper troughing over the eastern US will lift
across the region Thursday and Friday. Developing surface low
pressure associated with this feature will cross the deep south
Wednesday night and Thursday, prompting WAA to begin locally. The
dissipation of the inland wedge during this time is and will likely
remaining uncertain, as guidance is notoriously poor with this
process, but overrunning precip should begin Wednesday night as
strong low level WAA occurs under strengthening mid-level height
falls/broad lift.
The surface low will continue to strengthen as it lifts along the I-
95 corridor Thursday night and Friday. Eastern NC will be squarely
in the warm sector during this time, continuing the chance for
showers and thunderstorms. A strong (60-65 kt) LLJ on the eastern
side of the low will bring very strong low level shear and the
potential for thunderstorm organization/severe weather late Thursday
into Friday as the main line of prefrontal storms crosses the area.
Additionally, sustained winds could be strong, especially along the
coast, and elevated water levels along the northern shores of area
waterways are possible. Winds are expected to subside and the severe
weather and precip chances will end as the cold front crosses the
area later Friday.
Saturday through Monday...High pressure builds in through the
weekend, passing offshore early next week. This will bring a more
settled period with steadily moderating temps.
&&
.AVIATION /12Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Short Term /through Tuesday Morning/...
As of 650 AM Mon...IFR/LIFR conditions are expected to persist
through the TAF period as the low level inversion remains in
place behind a departing area of low pressure. Ceilings should
remain steady around 400-600 ft through tonight. Visibilities
will remain 4-5 miles or greater today, but from this evening
onward dense fog is expected inland, and especially over the
coastal plain, as the atmosphere rapidly warms behind a warm
front. Widespread showers and scattered thunderstorms overnight
will keep ceilings down at IFR levels through early tomorrow
morning. There are some signs that at least the coastal areas
could reach MVFR ceilings after sunrise tomorrow after
convection moves offshore, however inland locations should
remain IFR/LIFR through most of tomorrow morning at least.
Low level wind shear is expected to develop tonight, as winds
increase above a low level inversion. Wind speeds as high as
40-50 kts can be expected only 1500-2000 ft above the surface
lasting into tomorrow morning.
Long Term /Tuesday through Saturday/...
As of 4 AM Mon...VFR prevails Tuesday. High pressure ridges in
from the north Tuesday night and Wednesday, with moisture
overriding this wedge bringing the potential for reduced
ceilings at times through midweek. The next frontal system
impacts the area Thursday and Friday, bringing the threat for
periods of flight restrictions for both visibility (in showers
and thunderstorms) and lower ceilings.
&&
.MARINE...
Short Term /Today and Tonight/...
As of 700 AM Mon...Small craft conditions continue for the
coastal waters as winds continue at N 20-25 kts, with seas 6-9
ft. Winds will subside later this morning to 15-20 kts, however
seas will remain at or above 6 feet across the coastal waters
through the afternoon, with winds calming further to 5-15 kts.
A strong warm front will approach from the SW this evening, with
winds strengthening rapidly behind it. As a result the Small
craft advisories have been extended for the coastal waters
through the extent of this system, ending Wednesday night. New
advisories for the inland sounds have also been issued. Winds
early tonight increase to S 15-25 kts, and then strengthen
further to SSW 20-30 kts overnight, with seas building to 5-9
ft.
Long Term /Tuesday through Saturday/...
As of 4 AM Mon...Breezy to gusty southerly winds Tuesday morning
become more WSW and gradually subside as a cold front crosses the
waters midday Tuesday. Then, Tuesday evening, a backdoor cold front
crosses the waters, with winds becoming north and possibly surging
to 20-25 kt for several hours. High pressure ridging inland
continues moderate to breezy winds Wednesday and Wednesday night.
Then, a developing low over the Deep South on Thursday will prompt
winds to become southerly, with a strong LLJ bringing gusty to
strong winds Thursday night into Friday as the low passes just
inland, with Gales possible when winds are the strongest Friday
morning.
Seas remain elevated, around 5-8 ft Tuesday before beginning to
subside as southerly swell wanes Tuesday night and Wednesday. SCAs
for the combination of breezy to gusty winds and 6+ ft seas continue
for the coastal waters through Wednesday. Seas begin to increase
again Thursday as southerly windswell quickly builds, with seas
peaking at 8-10+ ft Friday morning.
Hi-res guidance indicates that sea fog is possible Tuesday morning
as a warm and humid airmass is in place ahead of a cold front that
will cross the waters midday. However, breezy S to SW winds during
this time will likely br strong enough to preclude any significant
fog impacts and coverage, and fog has been left out of the official
forecast for now.
