AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC 729 AM EDT TUE MAY 05 2009 .SYNOPSIS... A FRONT WILL STALL ACROSS CENTRAL NC BEFORE DISSIPATING ON WEDNESDAY. ANOTHER FRONT WILL PUSH EAST INTO THE AREA ON THURSDAY...AND STALL OVER THE SOUTHEAST STATES THROUGH SATURDAY. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... AS OF 540 AM TUESDAY... QUICK UPDATE TO ACCOUNT TO RAISE POPS FROM LIKELY TO CATEGORICAL FOR EXPANSIVE AREA OF RAIN SHOWERS MOVING NORTHEAST INTO CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA. AS OF 315 AM TUESDAY... VERY IMPRESSIVE COLD FRONT IS CURRENTLY SAGGING SOUTH ACROSS THE NORTHERN TIER OF THE FORECAST AREA...WITH A 11 DEGREE FAHRENHEIT GRADIENT OVER A 30 MILE STRETCH AS HENDERSON...AS TEMPERATURES JUST NORTH OF THE TRIANGLE HAVE FALLEN INTO THE MID 50S...WHILE RDU SITS AT A MILD 66 DEGREES. THIS SURFACE BOUNDARY WILL BISECT THE FORECAST AREA TODAY AND TONIGHT...SERVING AS ONE LIFT SOURCE OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS. THE OTHER PRIMARY MEANS FOR FORCING...WILL BE MULTIPLE MID AND UPPER LEVEL PERTURBATIONS MOVING ACROSS THE AREA...WITH THE FIRST CURRENTLY SPREADING EAST UPSTATE GA AND EASTERN TN. BOTH THE WRF AND GFS HAVE A DECENT HANDLE WITH THE CONVECTION ACROSS WESTERN GA AND SC THAT IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE DPVA...WHICH PROGRESSES THIS AREA OF CONVECTION NORTHEAST INTO THE SANDHILLS AND SOUTHERN COASTAL PLAIN THIS MORNING. WILL CARRY CATEGORICAL POPS ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHEASTERN THIS MORNING...WITH CHANCE ACROSS THE NORTHWEST PIEDMONT. THEN THE SOUTHERN TAIL OF THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH SHEAR AXIS...CURRENTLY EXTENDING FROM THE NORTHERN PLAINS TO SOUTHERN MO IS EXPECTED TO ROTATE ACROSS THE AREA. THIS WILL TRIGGER A SECOND ROUND OF CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON AS ANOTHER 30 TO 35 KT 925MB JET TRAVERSES EASTERN NC. THIS UNIDIRECTIONAL SHEAR OF AROUND 40KTS WILL BRING A THREAT OF MAINLY STRAIGHT LINE DAMAGING WIND IN THE WARM SECTOR FROM US 1 EAST...WHERE MODELS SHOW 1000 TO 1500 J/KG OF SURFACE AND MU CAPE. WILL ALSO HAVE TO BE ON THE LOOK OUT FOR THE THREAT OF TORNADOES ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN PORTIONS...WHERE EVER THE FRONT ENDS UP...AS SFC FRONT WILL ENHANCE THE LOW-LEVEL HELICITY...WITH THE NAM SHOWING AS MUCH AS 250 TO 300 0 TO 1 KM HELICITY. WILL LIKELY SEE A WATCH OR A COUPLE OF WATCHES BEFORE THE DAY IS OVER. WILL HIGHLIGHT THREAT IN HWO. A CAD LIKE TEMPERATURE SPREAD ACROSS THE AREA...WITH AFTERNOON HIGHS RANGING FROM MID 60S NORTHWEST TO UPPER 70S SOUTHEAST. CONVECTION WILL BEGIN TO WIND DOWN AS UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AXIS SHIFTS EAST OF THE AREA THIS EVENING...WITH SUBSIDENCE IN THE WAVE OF THE EXITING WAVE RESULTING IN ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWERS OVERNIGHT IN A HIGHLY PRECIP WATER AIRMASS. LOWS IN THE UPPER 50S TO AROUND 60 IN THE NORTHWEST WITH MID 60S SOUTHEAST. && .SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT/... AS OF 315 AM TUESDAY... THE UNSETTLED/STORMY WEATHER CONTINUES. FRONT LOOKS TO DISSIPATE ACROSS THE AREA ON WEDNESDAY...PROOF IN THE DIFFUSE MODEL LI GRADIENT. HOWEVER A MORE PROMINENT S/W TROUGH HAS BEEN PEGGED FOR SEVERAL MODEL RUNS NOW TO APPROACH THE AREA LATE IN THE DAY...WITH AN IMPRESSIVE SURFACE WAVE MOVING UP THE SPINE OF THE APPALACHIANS. THE SURFACE WAVE DRAGS A WELL DEFINED SURFACE TROUGH THE AREA WEDNESDAY NIGHT WITH A 50KT LOW JET TRAVERSING THE AREA.

WILL ADD MORE DETAILS IN THE HWO FOR SEVERE THREAT WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT. HIGHS 75-82 AND LOWS 62-68. && .LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... AS OF 3 AM TUESDAY... THURSDAY: BEST PRECIP CHANCES LOOK TO BE DURING THE MORNING HOURS THURSDAY AS YET ANOTHER MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE TRAVERSES ACROSS THE REGION. MOST GUIDANCE IS IN AGREEMENT THAT THIS PIECE OF ENERGY WILL BE LOCATED EAST OF THE AREA BY 15-18Z. THIS LEAVES THE REST OF THE DAY UNDER WEAK SUBSIDENCE IN THE SHORTWAVES WAKE ALONG WITH 850-500 MB WESTERLY FLOW. THEREFORE...WILL START THE DAY WITH CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE AREA...HIGHEST IN THE COASTAL PLAIN WHERE LARGE SCALE FORCING AND MUCAPES OF AROUND 500 J/KG WILL SUPPORT SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. POPS WILL BE TAPERED OFF TO SLIGHT CHANCE FROM MIDDAY ON WITH ONLY ISOLATED...DIURNALLY DRIVEN SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED WITH MLCAPES FORECAST TO BE BETWEEN 500-1000 J/KG. A GOOD DEAL OF AFTERNOON SUNSHINE ALONG WITH THICKNESSES IN THE 1390S SUPPORT LOW TO MID 80S FOR HIGHS. NO ADDITIONAL SHORTWAVES APPEAR TO AFFECT THE AREA THURSDAY NIGHT...SO IT SHOULD BE A QUIET BUT VERY MILD NIGHT. LIGHT SW FLOW KEEPS TEMPS IN THE LOW TO MID 60S FOR MIN TEMPS. FRIDAY AND SATURDAY: THE LOWEST MID LEVEL HEIGHTS WILL CONTINUE TO BE ACROSS THE NORTHERN THIRD OF THE COUNTRY INTO SOUTHERN CANADA...WITH THE BASE OF TROUGHING JUST SKIRTING THE MID ATLANTIC/CAROLINAS. THIS PLACES US IN DEEP WESTERLY FLOW AND PRECIP CHANCES WILL HINGE ON ANY PERTURBATIONS/MCVS MOVING THROUGH THE FLOW. THE GFS IS A CONVECTIVE MESS ON FRIDAY...PRODUCING A FEW SUCH MCVS THAT MOVE THROUGH THE AREA. THE ECMWF IS ESSENTIALLY DRY FOR FRI. SINCE THE TIMING AND DEVELOPMENT OF SUCH FEATURES IS DUBIOUS AT BEST THIS FAR OUT...WILL CONFINE SMALL CHANCE POPS TO DIURNAL CONVECTION WITH ANY ACTIVITY DIMINISHING EARLY FRI EVE. HIGHS MID TO UPPER 80S...LOWS AGAIN IN THE 60S SAT MORNING. MODELS ARE IN FAIR AGREEMENT IN BRINGING A COLD FRONT INTO THE NW PIEDMONT BY LATE SAT AFTN AND ACROSS THE CWA SAT NIGHT AS THE HEART OF THE MID LEVEL TROUGH MOVES INTO NEW ENGLAND. BEST HEIGHT FALLS/MID LEVEL FORCING APPEAR TO STAY NORTH OF THE AREA...SO WILL KEEP POPS IN THE LOW CHANCE RANGE FOR NOW. SUNDAY AND MONDAY: FRONT STALLS SOUTH OF THE REGION SUNDAY AND MONDAY WITH COOL HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING INTO THE AREA. THIS SHOULD BRING A RETURN TO MORE SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES WITH HIGHS IN THE MID TO UPPER 70S AND LOWS IN THE MID TO UPPER 50S BY MONDAY MORNING. WITH THE FLOW REMAINING WESTERLY...ANY SHORTWAVES RIDING THROUGH THE FLOW (INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT AND TIME THIS FAR OUT) COULD RESULT IN SOME ISENTROPIC LIFT AND RESULTANT PRECIP AS THE FRONT SINKS SOUTH OF THE REGION. WILL KEEP FORECAST DRY FOR NOW BUT WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR AS THE DAYS PROGRESS. && .AVIATION /12Z TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... AS OF 700 AM TUESDAY... IFR TO LIFR CEILINGS HAVE DEVELOPED BEHIND THE COLD FRONT...WHICH HAS JUST SHIFTED SOUTH OF THE RDU AND RWI AIRPORTS. THE FRONT IS EXPECTED TO STALL OUT THIS MORNING VERY CLOSE TO CURRENT LOCATION...WITH KFAY REMAINING IN WARM SECTOR. KFAY WILL SEE SOME SIGNIFICANT AVIATION IMPACTS AS WELL...AS AN EXPANSIVE AREA OF HEAVY RAIN SHOWERS...IN ASSOCIATION WITH AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL SPREAD NORTHEAST INTO THE SANDHILLS AND SOUTHERN COASTAL PLAIN THIS MORNING. VERY LITTLE...IF ANY IMPROVEMENT IS EXPECTED WITH PREDOMINATELY IFR TO MVFR CEILINGS EXPECTED THROUGHOUT THE DAY AS ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL SWING THROUGH THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON. WIDESPREAD SHOWERS WITH THUNDER POSSIBLE ACROSS THE SOUTHERN AND EASTERN TERMINALS. LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING SHOULD GREATLY REDUCE CONVECTIVE COVERAGE BY THE EVENING WITH ISOLATED SHOWERS POSSIBLE OVERNIGHT...WITH CEILINGS QUICKLY LOWERING TO LIFR TO IFR ACROSS THE AREA TUESDAY NIGHT. A SERIES OF SURFACE WAVES ARE EXPECTED TO TRACK ALONG THE QUASI-STATIONARY BOUNDARY...BRINGING AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF UNSETTLED WEATHER THROUGH MID TO LATE WEEK. WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ALONG WITH MORNING STRATUS AND FOG WILL BE THE PRIMARY AVIATION CONCERNS. && .RAH WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
