Hail and Damaging Winds in North Carolina, June 9, 2008

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC
320 PM EDT MON JUN 9 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
STRONG RIDGING ALOFT OVER THE CAROLINAS WILL GRADUALLY SHIFT
OFFSHORE LATER TONIGHT... AND WILL ALLOW A WEAK FRONT TO MOVE INTO
THE AREA FROM THE NORTHWEST BEFORE STALLING OVER THE AREA LATE
TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 1045 AM MONDAY...

A HEAT ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH 8 PM TODAY FOR ALL BUT
THE NORTHWEST PIEDMONT AND PERSON COUNTY IN CENTRAL NC.

ANOTHER HEAT ADVISORY HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THE SAME AREAS FOR
TUESDAY AFTERNOON.

TONIGHT: ANOTHER WARM AND MUGGY NIGHT IS EXPECTED... AS THE
CHARACTER OF THE AIR MASS WILL BE UNCHANGED. LOWS AGAIN WITHIN A
FEW DEGREES EITHER SIDE OF 75 DEGREES. HAVE INCLUDED ISOLATED
THUNDER ACROSS THE EXTREME SOUTHERN PIEDMONT THIS EVENING... AS
THE DEVELOPING THUNDERSTORMS TO OUR SOUTH AND WEST INVOF A LEE
SIDE TROUGH AND SOIL TYPE DISCONTINUITY... MAY PROPAGATE
NORTHEASTWARD INTO OUR SOUTHWESTERN CWA BEFORE DISSIPATING WITH
THE ONSET OF NOCTURNAL COOLING.

TUESDAY: HAVE ISSUED ANOTHER HEAT ADVISORY FOR TUESDAY
AFTERNOON... SINCE THE THERMAL RIDGE LINGERS OVER OUR REGION ONE
MORE DAY. WHILE THE CORE OF THE HEAT SHOULD SHIFT NORTHEASTWARD
ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN VIRGINIA WITH THE DEPARTURE AND WEAKENING OF
THE MID LEVEL RIDGE... MODEL CONSENSUS MAINTAINS H85 TEMPERATURES
AOA 20 CELSIUS OVER CENTRAL NC. THIS SHOULD SUPPORT HIGHS AGAIN
AROUND 100 DEGREES IN THE ADVISORY AREA... WITH UPPER 90S IN THE
NW PIEDMONT. HEAT INDEX VALUES WILL LIKELY COME UP JUST SHY OF 105
DEGREES WITH THE EXPECTED MIXING OUT OF SURFACE DEWPOINTS (AS HAS
BEEN THE CASE THROUGHOUT THIS HEAT WAVE)... BUT THE PROLONGED
SEVERAL DAY PERIOD OF HEAT INDICES IN EXCESS OF 100 DEGREES
NECESSITATES ONE MORE ADVISORY.

REGARDING PRECIPITATION CHANCES: A WEAK SURFACE TO H85 FRONT WILL
DRIFT SOUTHEASTWARD INTO THE WESTERN PIEDMONT OF NC LATE TUESDAY
AFTERNOON... PROPELLED BY THE SOUTHERN FRINGE OF A MID LEVEL WAVE
FORECAST TO MOVE ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES. WHILE MID LEVEL MOISTURE
WILL BE LIMITED... THE LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE/FGEN ASSOCIATED WITH
THE LOW LEVEL FRONT... AND PROXIMITY OF A LOW LEVEL THETA-E
RIDGE... WARRANT AT LEAST A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE WESTERN PIEDMONT COUNTIES LATE TUESDAY
AFTERNOON.  -MWS

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 145 PM MONDAY...

FOR TUESDAY NIGHT/WEDNESDAY: FINALLY... THE TRANSITION OUT OF THE
VERY OPPRESSIVE CONDITIONS IS UNDERWAY. THE LOW-AMPLITUDE MID LEVEL
SHORTWAVE TROUGH TRACKING UP THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES REGION AND ST
LAWRENCE VALLEY LATE TUESDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT ALLOWS A COLD
FRONT TO PUSH EASTWARD AND DROP INTO THE PREEXISTING LEE TROUGH EAST
OF THE MOUNTAINS. AS THIS HEIGHT WEAKNESS ALOFT EASES SLOWLY INTO NC
FROM THE WEST... THE SMALL SURFACE HIGH BEHIND THE FRONT STRENGTHENS
A BIT... AND BOTH FEATURES SEEM TO PROVIDE ENOUGH MOMENTUM TO SHIFT
THE SURFACE FRONT THROUGH MUCH OF CENTRAL NC BY WEDNESDAY MORNING.
OVERALL THE WIND FIELDS FROM THE SURFACE UP THROUGH THE MID LEVELS
ARE QUITE WEAK AND MODEL ANALYSIS AT 850 MB SHOWS LITTLE TO NO
MOISTURE CONVERGENCE... PLUS FLOW IS NEARLY NEUTRAL OR SLIGHTLY
DOWNGLIDE ON THE 305K SURFACE. ALL OF THIS IS ARGUING AGAINST PRECIP
TUESDAY NIGHT. BUT FORECAST PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES REACH UP NEAR
180% OF NORMAL OVERNIGHT... AND THERE IS GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT ON
PATCHY PRECIP DEVELOPMENT IN CENTRAL NC. SO DESPITE THE MARGINAL
FORCING WHICH LOOKS LIMITED TO WEAK LOW LEVEL MASS CONVERGENCE...
GIVEN THE INCREASING MOISTURE... WILL RETAIN A SLIGHT CHANCE POP
TUESDAY NIGHT WITH VERY LIGHT AMOUNTS. LOWS 69-75. THE WEAK SURFACE
HIGH... EXPECTED TO BE CENTERED OVER WV BY WEDNESDAY MORNING...
SLIDES EASTWARD TO THE DELMARVA AREA DURING THE DAY... AND THE WEAK
SURFACE TROUGH HOLDS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN AND EASTERN CWA. LATEST
SREF OUTPUT SHOWS A 50-70% CHANCE OF MEASURABLE PRECIP WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON. PRECIPITABLE WATER REMAINS RESPECTABLE AND EVEN INCREASES
A BIT... NEARING 200% OF NORMAL... WITH A LOW LEVEL THETA-E RIDGE
EXTENDING NORTHEAST THROUGH CENTRAL NC... ALTHOUGH FORECAST
INSTABILITY IS RATHER MARGINAL WITH SURFACE CAPES 1500-2000 J/KG.
WILL HOLD ONTO CHANCE POPS... HIGHER SOUTH THAN NORTH... AND
CONSIDERABLE CLOUDINESS. THICKNESSES FACTORING IN BROKEN CLOUD COVER
SUPPORT HIGHS 88-93.

THEN FOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT/THURSDAY: WILL HOLD ONTO A LOW CHANCE OF
SHOWERS WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS MODELS DEPICT ELEVATED INSTABILITY
LASTING WELL PAST SUNSET AND CONTINUED HIGH ATMOSPHERIC MOISTURE
CONTENT WITH WEAK SURFACE CONVERGENCE PERSISTING. EXPECT MILD LOWS
OF 67-72... A BIT WARMER THAN GUIDANCE CONSIDERING THE CLOUD COVER
AND MODIFYING AIR MASS. THE STAGNANT PATTERN APPEAR TO CHANGE LITTLE
ON THURSDAY WITH A MID LEVEL ANTICYCLONE OVERHEAD... WEAK
SOUTHEASTERLY 850 MB FLOW... AND THE SURFACE TROUGH STILL EXTENDING
ACROSS THE CAROLINAS... ALTHOUGH THE PRECISE LOCATION OF THIS TROUGH
IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DETERMINE WITH ANY ACCURACY AT THIS RANGE. WE
SHOULD HOWEVER SEE CONTINUED ABOVE NORMAL MOISTURE THROUGH THE
COLUMN... AND THIS COMBINED WITH AFTERNOON HEATING SHOULD HELP
PRODUCE SCATTERED CONVECTION. THICKNESSES SHOULD BE NEAR OR JUST
ABOVE NORMAL... AND HIGHS OF 85-88 LOOK GOOD. GIVEN THE VERY WEAK
STEERING WINDS AND THE LCL-TO-FREEZING-LEVEL DEPTH INCREASING TO
OVER 3.5 KM... SOME SHOWERS AND STORMS LATE WEDNESDAY THROUGH
THURSDAY MAY PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS. -GIH

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 245 PM MONDAY...

THE MID LEVEL RIDGE OVER THE SOUTHEAST BEGINS TO BE TAMPED DOWN BY
THE CIRCULATION AROUND THE CLOSED MID LEVEL LOW WHICH TRACKS ALONG
THE CENTRAL US/CANADA BORDER TO LAKE SUPERIOR... BEFORE RETROGRADING
BACK NORTHWEST INTO NRN ONTARIO WHERE IT SITS THROUGH MONDAY. A MID
LEVEL SHORTWAVE TROUGH TRAILING FROM THIS LOW PROGRESSES THROUGH THE
MIDWEST THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT... WEAKENING AS IT AND A
SURFACE COLD FRONT REACH THE APPALACHIANS SATURDAY NIGHT.

EXPECT SCATTERED SHOWERS TO LINGER THURSDAY NIGHT ALONG THE OLD
TROUGH. THEN AS THE SURFACE RIDGE HEADS FARTHER OFFSHORE AND THE
BOUNDARY LAYER FLOW BECOMES MORE SOUTHWESTERLY... THE BOUNDARY
SHOULD MIX OUT AND WITH A DRY POCKET OF 850 MB AIR ADVECTING IN...
INSTABILITY AND PRECIPITABLE WATER WILL BOTH BE WANING. WILL HOLD
ONTO A SLIGHT CHANCE IN THE WESTERN CWA ONLY IN THE AFTERNOON WITH
DRY WEATHER ELSEWHERE. SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM CHANCES SHOULD SLOWER
INCREASE OVER THE WEEKEND AS THE FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE WEST...
HOWEVER AS THE MID LEVEL TROUGH LOSES ITS DEFINITION THIS FAR
SOUTH... THE DYNAMICS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONT WILL BE DIMINISHING
RAPIDLY AND PRECIP CHANCES WILL BE KEPT ON THE LOW SIDE... OVER THE
WESTERN CWA SATURDAY AFTERNOON SPREADING EAST SATURDAY NIGHT INTO
SUNDAY. COMPARED TO THE FASTER GFS... THE ECMWF HAS A SLOWER FRONTAL
MOVEMENT AND THUS A MORE PROLONGED PERIOD OF POSSIBLE PRECIP...
LASTING INTO EARLY MONDAY BEFORE THE FRONT FINALLY DROPS TO OUR
SOUTHEAST. SINCE WERE ONCE AGAIN LOOKING AT VERY BAGGY AND WEAK MID
LEVEL TROUGHING EXTENDING DOWN THROUGH THE CENTRAL CAROLINAS AND
INTERIOR SOUTHEAST WITH SEEMINGLY LITTLE PUSH TO PROPEL THIS FRONT
EASTWARD... AM INCLINED TO LEAN TOWARD THE SLOWER ECMWF AND WILL
HOLD ONTO A SMALL CHANCE OF PRECIP INTO MONDAY. THICKNESSES THROUGH
THIS PERIOD HOLD NEAR TO JUST ABOVE NORMAL... AND THUS WILL GO WITH
LOWS GENERALLY IN THE MID-UPPER 60S AND HIGHS IN THE MID 80S TO
AROUND 90. -GIH

&&

.AVIATION /19Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 230 PM MONDAY...

ASIDE FROM VFR/MVFR HAZE TUESDAY MORNING... VFR CONDITIONS
EXPECTED THROUGH THE VALID TAF PERIOD... AS RELATIVELY DRY DEEP
LAYER RIDGING PERSISTS ACROSS THE REGION. SCATTERED CUMULUS CLOUDS
WITH BASES AROUND 7 THOUSAND FT THIS AFTERNOON SHOULD DIMINISH
LATER THIS EVENING. LIGHT AND VARIABLE SURFACE WINDS MAY PREVAIL
WEAKLY FROM THE SOUTH OR SOUTHWEST TONIGHT... AS A LEE SIDE TROUGH
DISSIPATES AND BERMUDA HIGH PRESSURE REESTABLISHES OVER OUR
REGION.

A WEAK SURFACE COLD FRONT WILL MOVE INTO THE WESTERN PIEDMONT OF
NC TUESDAY AFTERNOON... AND MAY TRIGGER A FEW SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS AT KGSO AND KINT AFTER 21Z TUESDAY. SOME OF THESE
MAY DRIFT INTO THE KRDU VICINITY AROUND SUNSET... BUT DRY
CONDITIONS EXPECTED ELSEWHERE.

LOOKING AHEAD... BRIEF MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE IN
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY AFTERNOONS... BUT
GENERALLY VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED OTHERWISE.
