What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this small craft advisory 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 small craft advisory went out at Feb 21, 2:54 PM EST, 3 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Feb 21, 2:54 PM EST, 3 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Newport/Morehead City NC
254 PM EST Sun Feb 21 2021

.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure will remain over the area today then shift offshore
tonight. A weak cold front will cross the area tomorrow
followed by high pressure building in from the southwest through
mid week. Another front or area of low pressure will impact the
region late in the week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
As of 215 PM Sunday...Quiet and cold conditions will continue
this afternoon and for most of tonight as high pressure remains
more or less overhead. Temps currently in the low to mid 40s
will drop very quickly this evening as winds quickly decouple
everywhere and skies remain clear, reaching the upper 20s to low
30s by late evening. Then overnight, high pressure will slide
offshore as the next system approaches from the west, leading to
increasing clouds and eventually strengthening winds by
tomorrow morning. Expect low temps to occur around midnight or
so, and then temperatures will remain steady or rise through the
rest of the early morning hours. Deep inland, readings will
only rise into the mid to upper 30s, however close to the coast
we could see temps in the upper 40s to low 50s by sunrise.
Widely scattered showers should remain offshore or south of the
area through the end of the near term period.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY/...
As of 220 PM Sun...A quick moving but dampening shortwave will
move out of Midwest Monday morning, with a surface low well into
Canada and a cold front extending southward all the way into the
Deep South. As high pressure slides further offshore tomorrow
morning, southerly winds will rapidly strengthen out ahead of
this front, but with limited moisture return. Showers will also
develop out ahead of the front, and will remain mostly scattered
through late morning, when a more substantial area of showers
develops and moves up and along the southern NC coast and over
to the Outer Banks. Could see a rumble of thunder in these
showers, however most instability will remain offshore. Another
band of heavier showers is likely to form along the front itself
late in the afternoon and move across the area tomorrow
evening.

Temperatures tomorrow will increase quickly into the 50s to near
60 by late morning, especially if any sunshine is seen across
the eastern half of the area. Then temps hover or move up a few
more degrees in the afternoon despite the widespread showers.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
As of 230 PM Sun...Another cold front will push offshore Monday
night, followed by drier and warmer conditions. Towards end of
the work week, rainy conditions are expected to return.

Monday night...The cold front will push offshore early Monday
night, though precip will still be ongoing through the evening
hours, with showers rapidly exiting offshore before midnight.
Temperatures will initially be mild in the upper 40s to low 50s,
but by Tuesday morning will range from the low 30s over the
coastal plain to the low 40s across the Outer Banks.

Tuesday through Thursday...High pressure will build in from the
southwest behind the front, moving overhead and eventually offshore
by Wednesday as a cold front approaches from the west. Expect dry
conditions through the period with clouds increasing Thursday. Above-
average temperatures expected through the period as low-level
thicknesses increase through the period. Temperatures will
start out in the 50s Tuesday and reaching to mid 60s by
Thursday.

Thursday night through weekend...The cold front is forecast to push
through Thursday night with models suggesting a slight chance of
showers across the boundary moves through. The frontal boundary is
expected to stall to the south of the area, while a shortwave energy
moves through Friday--initiating more showers for Friday. By
Saturday, the GFS continues to suggest a coastal low developing
along the boundary and move towards the carolinas, while the Euro
has the low farther south. there remains quite a bit of uncertainty
with the model guidance during this period.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Short Term /through Monday Afternoon/...
As of 240 PM Sun...VFR conditions are expected to continue
through the TAF period. Mostly clear skies and light winds will
persist through early tomorrow morning when clouds and winds
increase ahead of the next storm system. Ceilings of around
5000-6000 ft are expected from mid to late tomorrow morning,
with ceilings expected to lower through the afternoon as showers
become more widespread possibly to MVFR levels late in the day.
Winds will also increase rapidly tomorrow morning, becoming
southerly at 15-20 mph with occasional gusts to 25-30 mph.

Long Term /Monday Night through Friday/...
As of 240 PM Sun ...Sub-VFR conditions will be possible as rain
showers spread across the area, especially by Monday afternoon.
Conditions will quickly improve back to VFR as high pressure
returns again Tuesday and continues through the period.

&&

.MARINE...
Short Term /Through Tomorrow/...
As of 245 PM Sun...Some lingering 6 ft seas this afternoon will
diminish by this evening, with conditions remaining fairly
quiet overnight. Winds are expected to veer around from the NE
to the SE at 10 kts or less with seas 3-5 ft.

Tomorrow morning southerly winds will rapidly increase ahead of
a cold front, becoming 20-30 kts by late morning, with seas
increasing to 6-8 ft. Winds will peak late in the afternoon at
25-30 kts with some gusts to 35 kts possible, with seas up to
6-10 ft. Small craft advisories have been issued for all the
coastal waters, Pamlico and Croatan/Roanoke Sounds beginning
tomorrow morning and lasting through tomorrow night.

Long Term /Monday Night through Friday/...
As of 250 PM Sun...Winds will quickly subside Monday night W
10-20 kts with seas lingering at 5-7 ft through Tuesday
morning. Sfc high pressure will build again from the southwest,
expect west wind 15-20 kts, becoming southwest 10-15 kts Wed,
then back to west winds Thurs. Winds will shift to the NW, and
then NE as a cold front push through Thurs night. Seas will
generally be 2-4 ft.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
As of 250 PM Sunday...Widespread river flooding will continue
the next few days as a result of very heavy rains over the past
week or so. Flooding currently is in the minor to moderate range
