NWS Raleigh, NC wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jul 4, 2:05 PM EST, 1 hour 2 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC 305 PM EDT MON JUL 4 2011 .SYNOPSIS... A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE BOTH AT THE SURFACE AND ALOFT WILL THROUGH WESTERN AND CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA THROUGH MID WEEK... BRINGING INCREASED CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS THROUGH THURSDAY. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/... AS OF 255 PM MONDAY... THROUGH TONIGHT: OF IMMEDIATE CONCERN IS THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT. FORECAST RECENTLY UPDATED AND TWEAKED FOR NEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCHES IN THE NORTHERN PIEDMONT/NRN COASTAL PLAIN... EFFECTIVE UNTIL 8 PM WEST AND 10 PM EAST THIS EVENING. THE COLD FRONT ACCORDING TO SURFACE ANALYSES STILL STRETCHES ACROSS THE MASON DIXON LINE AND OH/IN... WITH A WELL-DEFINED TROUGH FROM SW VA THROUGH EASTERN TN... ALONG AN OUTFLOW FROM EARLIER CONVECTION AND SUPPORTED ALOFT BY DPVA GENERATED BY AN MCV FROM LAST EVENING'S STORMS OVER WESTERN MO. DISCRETE CELLS FORMING ON THE HIGHER TERRAIN ARE RAPIDLY MULTIPLYING AND WILL MOVE WESTWARD INTO THE WATCH AREAS OVER THE NEXT HOUR OR TWO... POTENTIALLY ORGANIZING INTO SHORT BOWING SEGMENTS. MLCAPE IS ALREADY 2500-3000 J/KG IN THE NW CWA AND CLIMBING WITH AN UNCAPPED COLUMN... AND DOWNDRAFT CAPE OVER 1000 J/KG WITH FORECAST SOUNDINGS DEPICTED AN INVERTED-V SIGNAL IN THE LOW LEVELS SUPPORTS A DAMAGING DOWNBURST WIND THREAT... AS WELL AS A SLIGHTLY LESSER LARGE HAIL RISK GIVEN THE -10C TO -30C LAYER CAPE NEAR 800 J/KG. THE REST OF THE PIEDMONT AND NORTHERN COASTAL PLAIN CONTINUES TO DESTABILIZE WITH IMPROVING EFFECTIVE SHEAR TO NEAR 25 KTS... THUS CONVECTION SHOULD BE SUSTAINED WELL INTO THE EVENING AS IT HEADS EASTWARD. HAVE RAISED POPS TO LIKELY ACROSS THE NORTHERN CWA THROUGH THE EVENING. FORECAST SOUNDINGS INDICATE MARGINAL ELEVATED INSTABILITY LASTING OVERNIGHT WITH SOUPY AIR IN THE LOW LEVELS... WILL KEEP A MENTION OF ISOLATED STORMS OVERNIGHT. LOWS 69-73. FOR TUESDAY: MID-UPPER LEVEL SHEAR AXIS WILL PERSIST JUST TO OUR NW WITH WEAK TROUGHING HOLDING AT THE SURFACE. PRECIP WATER VALUES ARE EXPECTED TO HOLD AT 1.5 TO NEAR 2 INCHES... AND WITH MLCAPE ONCE AGAIN EXPECTED TO CLIMB TO AROUND 2000-2500 J/KG... EXPECT ANOTHER ROUND OF NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND STORMS. WITH THE DEEP WARM LAYER AND ANTICIPATED SLOW STORM MOVEMENT... HEAVY RAIN WILL REMAIN A THREAT. HIGHS 89-94. -GIH && .SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/... AS OF 205 PM... VERY WEAK NEAR SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT TUESDAY EVENING OVER CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA IN A BERMUDA HIGH PATTERN. HINTS ON SOME MODELS OF FLOW BEING MILDLY DIVERGENT AT THE SURFACE... AND AT THE LEAST... QUITE WEAK. MODEL CONSENSUS IS PRECIPITABLE WATERS ACROSS THE AREA IN EXCESS OF 1.75 INCHES AND DO EXPECT A NOCTURNAL LOW LEVEL JET TO DEVELOP TOWARD MIDNIGHT. ADDITIONALLY A BAGGY TROUGH NEAR OR WEST OF THE MOUNTAINS WILL PROVIDE SOME SYNOPTIC NEAR SURFACE CONVERGENCE. PRECIPITATION COVERAGE LIKELY TO DROP OFF WITH LOSS OF HEATING FOR TUESDAY EVENING THEN PICK UP A BIT TOWARD MIDNIGHT AND TO DAWN AS DYNAMICS BECOME SLIGHTLY MORE FAVORABLE. FIFTY/THIRTY RAIN CHANCES NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST FOR THE EVENING THEN FORTY PERCENT POPS NORTHWEST SLIDING TO TWENTY PERCENT SOUTHEAST FOR THE LATE NIGHT. A MILD MUGGY NIGHT EXPECTED WITH LOW TEMPERATURES IN THE LOW TO MID 70S. THE ABOVE MENTIONED TROUGH RELATIVELY STATIC THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT AND PRECIPITABLE WATER REMAINS HIGH. A CONSTANT MOISTURE FEED FROM THE ATLANTIC AND GULF WITH 3000 FEET WINDS IN THE FIFTEEN TO TWENTY-FIVE KNOT RANGE SUGGEST RAIN CHANCES OF AT LEAST 50 PERCENT DURING THE AFTERNOONS... AND PERHAPS TWICE THAT. SEVERE THREAT TINY TO NIL IN THIS ENVIRONMENT. FIND IT DIFFICULT TO BELIEVE THAT ANYONE WILL AVOID GETTING MEASURABLE RAIN DURING THIS PERIOD. MODEL CONSENSUS IS HEAVIER AMOUNTS NORTH AND WEST THAN ELSEWHERE AND GIVEN THE PATTERN THIS IS ACCEPTED. A WIDESPREAD ONE INCH OF RAIN NOT IMPOSSIBLE... WITH THE USUAL HEAVIER AMOUNTS DUE TO PERSISTENT CONVECTION. AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES FORECAST WITHOUT CONFIDENCE AS TIMING AND COVERAGE OF SHOWERS WILL PLAY HAVOC WITH INSOLATION. FAVOR DROPPING HIGH TEMPERATURES UNDER 90 EXCEPT PERHAPS SOUTHEAST... THOUGH SPOTTY 90S ANYWHERE SUNSHINE IS SUFFICIENTLY STRONG. MID 70S FOR LOW TEMPERATURES COMMON WITH CONVECTION DROPPING SOME SPOTS TOWARD 70. && .LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... AS OF 205 PM... A WEAK MID LEVEL TROUGH WHICH HAD LINGERED OVER THE EASTERN UNITED STATES WILL BE LIFTING NORTHEAST AND BECOMING DIFFUSE OVER NORTH CAROLINA FRIDAY. HOWEVER PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES REMAIN HIGH AND WEAK LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE INLAND OF AN INVERTED SURFACE TROUGH... THOUGH WEAK... IS PERHAPS ALL THAT IS NEEDED WHEN COMBINED WITH AFTERNOON HEATING. FIFTY POPS FOR FRIDAY AFTERNOON. CONVECTION DECREASING FRIDAY NIGHT BUT LIKELY TO CONTINUE AT LEAST TO MIDNIGHT. WEAK EAST TO EAST NORTHEAST SURFACE FLOW SATURDAY WITH THE MID LEVELS IN TRANSITION THOUGH NOT YET INTO A BERMUDA HIGH PATTERN. WEAK TROUGH ALOFT OVER THE FOOTHILLS WILL PROVIDE MINIMAL CONVECTIVE SUPPORT. WITH AIR MASS POTENTIALLY DRYING A BIT ALOFT... AFTERNOON RAIN CHANCES FORTY PERCENT. AIR MASS FINALLY SIGNIFICANTLY DRYS ALOFT SUNDAY WITH THE UPPER TROUGH IN THE WESTERN ATLANTIC. A PERHAPS TOO HIGH 30 PERCENT AFTERNOON RAIN CHANCE. WEAK SOUTH FLOW AROUND THE BERMUDA HIGH WITH SOME WEAK MOISTURE ADVECTION MONDAY. CLIMATOLOGY LOOKS GOOD HERE WITH MONDAY AFTERNOON RAIN CHANCES AGAIN 30 PERCENT. COUNTING ON CLOUDS AND PRECIPITATION SUPPRESSING TEMPERATURES FRIDAY AND SATURDAY AFTERNOONS... FOR HIGHS UPPER 80S TO LOWER 90S. A WARMING TREND WITH SUNSHINE... AND HIGH TEMPERATURES MOSTLY LOWER 90S SUNDAY... LOW TO MID 90S MONDAY. ONE MORE MUGGY WARM NIGHT FRIDAY NIGHT WITH LOW TEMPERATURES LOW TO MID 70S... THEN UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S INTO SUNDAY NIGHT. && .AVIATION /18Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/... AS OF 130 PM MONDAY... VFR CONDITIONS WILL DOMINATE THROUGH 18Z TUESDAY... HOWEVER A PERIOD OF INCLEMENT AVIATION CONDITIONS WITH SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS STRONG STORMS AND LOCALLY GUSTY WINDS IS LIKELY OVER THE NORTHERN TERMINAL SITES. A SURFACE FRONT REMAINS STRETCHED JUST TO THE NORTH AND NORTHWEST OF NORTH CAROLINA THIS AFTERNOON... AND WILL EASE SLOWLY SOUTHWARD TONIGHT. THIS FRONT WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY A MID LEVEL TROUGH STRETCHING FROM THE DELMARVA ACROSS VIRGINIA AND KENTUCKY TONIGHT... AND THE APPROACH OF THIS TROUGH AND FRONT COMBINED WITH AN INCREASINGLY UNSTABLE AIR MASS OVER NORTHERN AND WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA WILL SPAWN THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON... AFFECTING INT/GSO AROUND 18Z TO 23Z... AND RDU/RWI 20Z-02Z. STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO AFFECT FAY 23Z TO 06Z BUT ARE LIKELY TO BE WEAKER AS DEEP LAYER WINDS HERE ARE VERY LIGHT. IN AND NEAR THESE STORMS... MVFR TO IFR CEILINGS/VISIBILITIES AND GUSTS OVER 50 MPH ARE POSSIBLE... WITH A LESSER THREAT OF HAIL FROM MARBLE TO QUARTER SIZE. OUTSIDE OF THESE STORMS... CEILINGS SHOULD BE VFR ABOVE 4 THOUSAND FEET WITH VFR VISIBILITIES. PATCHY MVFR/IFR FOG AND SMOKE IS POSSIBLE MAINLY AT FAY/RWI AFTER 06Z THROUGH 13Z TUESDAY MORNING AS THE LOW LEVELS DECOUPLE... AND THESE SAME LOCATIONS ARE ALSO LIKELY TO SEE LOW LEVEL JETTING TONIGHT... WITH NEAR SURFACE WINDS OF 6 TO 10 KNOTS INCREASING QUICKLY TO NEAR 25 KNOTS AT 800 TO 1200 FEET AGL. VFR CONDITIONS WILL RESUME AGAIN BY MID MORNING TUESDAY... HOWEVER ANOTHER ROUND OF STORMS IS LIKELY BY MID AFTERNOON AT ALL SITES. LOOKING BEYOND 18Z TUESDAY AFTERNOON... THE THREAT FOR SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS WILL PERSIST EACH DAY THROUGH AT LEAST THURSDAY... MAINLY (BUT NOT ONLY) IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. ANY STORM COULD PRODUCE A PERIOD OF HEAVY RAIN WITH SURFACE WIND GUSTS OVER 30 MPH AND MVFR VISIBILITIES AND CEILINGS. PATCHY MVFR FOG IS POSSIBLE EACH MORNING FROM 08Z-13Z AS WEAK SURFACE TROUGHING AND PLENTIFUL MOISTURE HOLD OVER THE REGION. SLIGHTLY DRIER WEATHER IS EXPECTED LATE FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY. -GIH && .CLIMATE... HERE ARE THE TEMPERATURE RECORDS FOR JULY 4TH.
