Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wilmington NC
840 PM EDT Sat Jun 13 2026

.WHAT HAS CHANGED...
Update for 00Z aviation discussion and to adjust rainfall
chances for convection being on the wane.

&&

.KEY MESSAGES...
1) Heat will give way to an active convective pattern through
Tuesday.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...Heat will give way to an active convective
pattern through Tuesday.

KEY MESSAGE 1 DESCRIPTION...
Front washes out Sunday but healthy
piedmont trough develops while in the mid levels a low amplitude
trough swings through. Looking for an active convective day that
could make figuring out which part of the area will need a heat
advisory. On Monday a cold front pushes through, still in the
presence of heat/instability for another day with good storm
coverage. After a return to more seasonable temperatures Tuesday and
Wednesday it looks to start turning hot again as low amplitude
ridging returns. Due to the lower amplitude the magnitude of the
heat should fall short of the current heatwave.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Convection should end for the night at area terminals soon.  After
that expect mainly VFR conditions overnight.  There is a chance for
MVFR fog at terminals where the rain was a little more significant
but confidence in that is too low for inclusion in most forecasts.
We'll probably see more storms Sunday afternoon but pinpointing
which terminals are most likely to be affected and when is a low
confidence prospect attm.

Extended Forecast...A secondary front early next week will bring a
period of wet and unsettled conditions through midweek. Periodic
MVFR/IFR convection during the afternoon and evening remain possible
2nd half of this weekend into early next week. Patchy morning fog
and/or stratus also possible, favored where heavy rain fell the day
before.

&&

.MARINE...
Tonight through Thursday... Although the cold front currently
stalled to our west washes out tomorrow a Piedmont trough takes its
place and actually increases the gradient. SCA for mainly NC waters,
too borderline this afternoon to pull the trigger. Outside of this a
fairly typical regime will be in place for June with offshore high
pressure keeping winds out of the SW and generally in the 10-15kt
range early in the period, with a category increase late in the
period as another cold front slowly approaches from the NW.

&&

.CLIMATE...
Hot temperatures are expected this weekend which a few sites
may reach record highs. The hottest day of the weekend will
be today. The high temp records for each climate site this
weekend are provided below.
