Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Raleigh NC
246 PM EDT Mon Aug 19 2024

.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front will move southeast across central NC through this
evening. A cooler and less humid air mass will settle into the area
tonight through Friday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /TODAY AND TONIGHT/...
As of 245 PM Monday...

Showers and thunderstorms have developed ahead of the cold front
approaching from the northwest. The storms could strengthen in the
next couple of hours as a mid/upper disturbance swings through the
area, coincident with the arrival and passage of the cold front. As
of 18Z, PWATs were in the 1.5 to 1.7 inch range, with MUCAPE mainly
in the 1000-2000 J/Kg range. Effective shear was only in the 15-25
kt range. The strongest storms should be focused along the cold
front and move quickly ssewd across central NC, mainly through 10PM.
There is still a Marginal Risk for severe storms, with the primary
threat of isolated damaging wind gusts. An additional shower or two
may develop behind the front as a trailing s/w disturbance aloft
moves through the area. Once the showers/storms exit to the
southeast, the remainder of the night should be dry. While the cold
front should push quickly through the area this evening, and some of
the cooler, drier air may make it into the NW late tonight, the
arrival of the cooler, drier air may be delayed until Tue morning
across the SE. Lows tonight should generally range from the low 60s
north to upper 60s south.

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT/...
As of 120 PM Monday...

An expansive surface high pressure will be centered over Ontario
north of Lake Superior Tuesday morning, with ridging extending all
the way to the Gulf coast. The center of the high will move over
Wisconsin by Wednesday morning as today's cold front continues to
move offshore. Skies should be mostly clear, and some noticeably
cooler air will be felt. Several locations are likely to remain in
the upper 70s for highs, with the warmest locations reaching the mid
80s. Similarly, Winston-Salem, Roxboro, and Roanoke Rapids could
drop into the upper 50s for lows, with Fayetteville likely one of
the warmest sites in the mid 60s.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
As of 200 PM Monday...

Wed through Sat: Dry conditions will prevail with well below normal
temperatures and comfortable dew points becoming common as an
unseasonably strong 1026mb surface high pressure spreads over the
Mid-Atlantic through Sat. Subtle modification in the airmass is
expected each day as low-level thicknesses rise roughly 10m from Wed
to Sat, but overall expect low-mid 80s with dew points in the 50s to
near 60 each afternoon. High pressure centered just to our northeast
and mostly clear skies will support nearly optimal radiational
cooling each night and resulting in lows similar to mid-late
September (mid 50s to near 60, with low 50s outside of urban areas
in the Piedmont).

Sun and Mon: The sneak preview of fall conditions comes to an end as
surface high pressure continues to weaken over the area and warmer
850mb temperatures near the center of the H850 anticyclone shift
towards the southern Mid-Atlantic. Highs will increase back to the
mid/upper 80s to near 90 with lows continuing to rising trend back
to mid/upper 60s. Deep northerly flow will keep moisture return to a
minimum and keep conditions dry for most across central NC. An
inverted trough along the coast and dew points in the mid 60s will
support afternoon instability of around 500 J/kg and some shower
activity in the southern/central Coastal Plain and eastern Sandhills.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
As of 125 PM Monday...

24 hour TAF period: A line of showers and storms will move quickly
ssewd across central NC through this evening. Storms will be
possible at all terminals, accompanied by strong gusty winds, lower
cigs, and reduced vsbys. Otherwise, VFR conditions should prevail
through the TAF period. However, there are a couple of models
showing some sub-VFR vsbys invof KRWI between 06Z and 12Z Tue.
Chance/confidence too low to include in the TAF at this time.

Outlook: Fairly high confidence VFR conditions will prevail through
the end of the week. There could be a brief period of borderline
VFR/MVFR cigs Tue and Wed aft at the eastern 3 sites. Some of the
model guidance also hints at some potential early morning fog/low-
stratus development at KRWI Wed morning, expanding to all terminals
for Thu morning, but confidence is still somewhat low at this time.
