Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wilmington NC
715 PM EDT Fri May 6 2022

.SYNOPSIS...
Strong to severe thunderstorms this evening will move off to the
NE thru E, and away from the area by or after midnight tonight.
Some of the thunderstorms, especially well inland, could
produce damaging wind gusts and large hail. Much cooler weather
will arrive behind the cold frontal passage late Sat, with dry
weather and breezy conditions at times expected into next week.

&&

.UPDATE...
Currently 2 SVR Thunderstorm Watches across the FA, both expire
at 10pm. Damaging winds and large hail remain the primary
severe potential. East of the sea breeze that runs from Garland
to Tabor City to Aynor will generally tend to see effects
preventing new convection from reaching severe or an overall
tend to weaken convection once it crosses the sea breeze into a
more subdued or somewhat "stable" convective environment.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/...
A challenging severe weather potential forecast this evening. SBCAPE
has grown moderate to strong across the area, but this stronger
instability is progged to lift off to our north while less unstable
air advects in from the west in the very near term. A secondary but
lesser surge of instability is progged to enter western zones by 21Z
with the first few storms soon thereafter. This may represent the
best chance for severe weather. As the storms translate north and
east their fate is a bit more uncertain since they will be moving
into higher dewpoints but the overall diurnal cooling will be
underway. Storms to affect the Cape Fear region last, their severe
threat diminished but non-zero. Damaging wind and hail will be the
main threats, but far western zones will also have a small tornado
threat as 150 m^2/s^2 of low level SRH develops.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT/...
One last chance for rain Saturday night as there's still a bit
of moisture in place just behind the sfc low moving offshore,
and mid-level energy associated with the cyclonic flow aloft.
Any rain amounts will be light, mainly over NE areas, and during
the evening hours. A dry overnight then as the low pushes
farther offshore and temps bottom out in the low/mid 50s...the
coolest temps in several days.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Cooler weather returns next week as low pressure spins offshore
for several days and high pressure ridges in from the north.
Expect dry wx from early to mid week, before the low starts to
nudge westward towards the coast late in the week. There
continues to be a fair bit of uncertainty over the strength of
the low and where it moves onshore, but in general PoPs will
continue to be in the chance range for Thursday and Friday, with
the best chance right along the coast. Winds persistently out
of the N/NE, with below normal temps of highs only in the 70s
for most of the week.

&&

.AVIATION /23Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Gusty SW winds to continue through the period as the area remains in
the warm sector ahead of a storm system developing OH Valley region.
A line of thunderstorms will begin to threaten inland terminal by
about 21Z and coastal terms soon thereafter. Storms may weaken as
they translate east towards ILM. Little to no rain expected
following squall line, which could bring strong and variable wind
gusts as well as lowered CIG and VSBY, though any IFR should be very
brief.

Extended Outlook...Cold front expected to push through from the
north Saturday afternoon/eve with MVFR conditions possible from
clouds and pcpn. Strong low pressure will linger off the NC
coast early to midweek next week resulting in active northerly
flow across the terminals with mainly VFR conditions.

&&

.MARINE...
Through Saturday: Prefrontal flow regime to stay in place
through the period and although somewhat marginal a fairly long
fused SCA will be in place mainly for wind gusts. Southwesterly
wind waves to be dominant but a 7 sec SE swell will be on the
rise.

Saturday Night Through Wednesday: A prolonged period of SCA
conditions from this weekend through mid next week in
association with moderate N/NE flow as low pressure spins
offshore. Seas will build as NE 12 second swell increases...up
to 8-9 ft out 20nm by Tuesday and Wednesday. Meanwhile...winds
gusting up to 25-30 kt for much of this period, esp. over NC
coastal waters.
