AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC 225 PM EDT THU JUL 7 2011 .SYNOPSIS... AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH SLOWLY APPROACHING FROM THE WEST WILL RESULT IN AN INCREASED CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH SATURDAY. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... AS OF 115 PM THURSDAY... 17Z SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWED HIGH PRESSURE IN THE ATLANTIC...WITH A LIGHT SOUTHERLY RETURN FLOW ACROSS THE CAROLINAS. OTHERWISE...A WEAK MSLP PATTERN WAS PRESENT OVER THE SOUTHEAST/MID-ATLANTIC AND TN/OH VALLEYS. ALOFT...LATEST WV IMAGERY AND RUC DATA SHOWED AN H25 SHORTWAVE OR SHEAR AXIS JUST UPSTREAM OF THE AREA...EXTENDING NORTHEAST FROM NASHVILLE TN THROUGH SOUTHEAST KY INTO CENTRAL/SW VA. TEMPERATURES: LOW STRATUS PERSISTED FOR QUITE A WHILE IN THE WESTERN PIEDMONT THIS MORNING...ONLY RECENTLY DISSIPATING WITH LEXINGTON/ASHEBORO/ ALBEMARLE APPROACHING 80F AS OF 17Z...WHILE ELSEWHERE ACROSS CENTRAL NC CLOUD COVER HAS BEEN MINIMAL AND TEMPS ARE ALREADY IN THE UPPER 80S. WITH THE ABOVE IN MIND...WILL KEEP THE PREVIOUS HIGH TEMP FORECAST INTACT FOR MOST AREAS (HIGHS 89-92F)...WITH 85-87F IN PORTIONS OF THE WESTERN PIEDMONT. OVERNIGHT...WITH EXPECTED CONVECTION AND CLOUD COVER...ANTICIPATE LOWS SIMILAR TO LAST NIGHT...IN THE LOWER 70S...OR 69-73F. PRECIPITATION CHANCES: 17Z SPC MESOANALYSIS SHOWED 1000-1500 J/KG OF MLCAPE PRESENT ACROSS CENTRAL NC. DESPITE WEAK MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES OWING TO TROPICAL/ MOIST ADIABATIC MOISTURE PROFILES...RUC FORECAST SOUNDINGS (MODIFIED FOR 89/72) THIS AFTERNOON INDICATE MODERATE INSTABILITY WITH MLCAPE VALUES ~2000 J/KG. THIS LOOKS PRETTY REASONABLE GIVEN THE RICH BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE IN PLACE ACROSS THE CAROLINAS (SFC DEWPOINTS 70-74F). W/REGARD TO LIFT...LOW LEVEL FORCING IS LARGELY ABSENT TODAY DUE TO A WEAK MSLP/HEIGHT GRADIENT ACROSS THE CAROLINAS. AS A RESULT...LOW LEVEL FORCING WILL BE TIED PRIMARILY TO THE SEABREEZE (GENERALLY S/SE OF CENTRAL NC) AND OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES. ALOFT...THE AFOREMENTIONED H25 SHEAR AXIS IS EXPECTED TO WEAKEN AS IT SLOWLY MOVES TOWARD/INTO THE AREA LATE THIS AFT/EVE INTO TONIGHT. THE LATEST (00 AND 06Z) HIGH-RES CONVECTION ALLOWING MODELS ARE HAVING A DIFFICULT TIME WITH TODAY'S SETUP. THE 00Z ARW/NMM RUNS SHOWED CONVECTION ACROSS CENTRAL NC AT 12Z THIS MORNING WHICH FAILED TO MATERIALIZE. AS A RESULT...CONFIDENCE IN THE LOCATION AND COVERAGE OF CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT IS RELATIVELY LOW. HOWEVER...GIVEN A VERY MOIST COLUMN (PRECIPITABLE WATER 1.75-2.00")...MODERATE INSTABILITY (~2000 J/KG)...THE SEABREEZE TO THE SOUTHEAST AND AN H25 SHEAR AXIS APPROACHING FROM THE WEST/NW...ALL THE INGREDIENTS APPEAR TO BE IN PLACE FOR SCATTERED TO WIDESPREAD CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT. FEEL THAT THE MOST LIKELY SCENARIO WILL BE CONVECTION DEVELOPING TO THE SOUTHEAST IN ASSOC/W THE SEABREEZE THIS AFTERNOON...WITH ADDITIONAL CONVECTION DEVELOPING OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND FOOTHILLS IN ASSOC/W THE APPROACHING H25 SHEAR AXIS. THEREAFTER...EXPECT CONVECTION TO INCREASE IN COVERAGE ACROSS CENTRAL NC FROM THE WEST (SHEAR AXIS/OUTFLOW) AND SOUTHEAST (SEABREEZE/OUTFLOW)...PERSISTING INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS UNTIL THE ATMOSPHERE OVER CENTRAL NC HAS BEEN THOROUGHLY WORKED OVER. WILL KEEP LIKELY POPS (60-70%) IN THE FORECAST EVERYWHERE FROM MID/LATE AFTERNOON THROUGH MIDNIGHT...DECREASING TO CHANCE (40-50%) AFTER MIDNIGHT. SEVERE THREAT: EFFECTIVE WIND SHEAR VALUES TODAY WILL BE LESS THAN 20 KT WITH NO MORE THAN 10-15 KT WESTERLY MID-LEVEL FLOW THIS AFT/EVE...SO ORGANIZED CONVECTION IS NOT EXPECTED. ALTHOUGH LOW-LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND DCAPE WILL BE NOT AS FAVORABLE FOR ROBUST COLD POOLS/DOWNBURSTS AS WAS THE CASE EARLIER THIS WEEK...THE PRESENCE OF DEEP MOISTURE (BETTER PRECIP LOADING POTENTIAL) MAY HELP COMPENSATE AND ALLOW FOR HYBRID/WET DOWNBURSTS IN ASSOC/W ANY DEEP CONVECTION. AS A RESULT... AN ISOLATED THREAT FOR DAMAGING WINDS WILL PERSIST. THE BIGGEST THREAT TODAY/TONIGHT WILL BE LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN...WITH A POTENTIAL FOR FLASH FLOODING DUE TO A VERY MOIST AIR MASS AND SLOW STORM MOTION DUE TO WEAK WEST/SW STEERING FLOW. -VINCENT && .SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/... AS OF 215 PM... MOIST SOUTH FLOW CONTINUES FRIDAY AS AN UPPER TROUGH IN THE OHIO VALLEY APPROACHES. CONSENSUS IS THE MORE NORTHERN PARTS OF THE TROUGH WILL BE PROGRESSIVE WITH THE SOUTHERN PORTION LAGGING BEHIND AND STAYING WEST OF THE NORTH CAROLINA MOUNTAINS INTO FRIDAY EVENING. PRECIPITABLE WATERS AT OR ABOVE TWO INCHES AND CAPE IN EXCESS OF 2500 JOULES. ALTHOUGH THE SURFACE PATTERN IS QUITE WEAK... A WEAK SURFACE LOW MAY PROVIDE BOTH SPEED AND DIRECTIONAL CONVERGENCE FOR LIFT. HEAVY RAIN THREAT WILL CONTINUE... BUT INDIVIDUAL STORMS PROGRESSIVE ENOUGH IN WEAK WEST SOUTHWEST FLOW. WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED AT THE NEED FOR FLOOD WARNINGS FRIDAY OR SATURDAY BUT NO CONFIDENCE IN SELECTING AN AREA... AND NO WATCH AT THIS TIME. SEVERE THREAT WILL BE SIMILAR TO THE PAST FEW DAYS... WITH A HANDFUL OF STORMS DOWNING SOME TREES AND POWER LINES FRIDAY AND SATURDAY AFTERNOONS. FRIDAY HIGH TEMPERATURES UPPER 80S TO LOWER 90S... WITH SOME COOLER HIGHS WHERE CONVECTION AND CLOUDS INTERFERE WITH INSOLATION EARLY IN THE DAY. LOWS FRIDAY NIGHT IN THE UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S. LARGE TIMING DIFFERENCES IN DRAGGING THE LAGGING TROUGH INTO CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA WITH THE OLD 00Z ECMWF FAST AND NAM THE SLOWEST. SLOWER IS FREQUENTLY BEST AND ROUGHLY FOLLOWING THE NAM FOR SATURDAY. FORTY TO FIFTY PERCENT RAIN CHANCES FOR FRIDAY AFTER SUNRISE RISING TO LIKELY IN THE AFTERNOON. OTHER THAN THE ADDED UPPER LEVEL DYNAMICS... LITTLE CHANGE FROM FRIDAY WITH A CONTINUED FLOOD AND SMALL SEVERE THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL. MID 80S OR LOWER FOR HIGH TEMPERATURES SATURDAY (WITH NORTHERN HIGHS MOST IN JEOPARDY OF BEING TOO WARM) EXCEPT UPPER 80S POSSIBLE SOUTH. LOW TEMPERATURES UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S. ASSUMING CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA WILL BE UNDER LIGHT NORTHEAST SURFACE WINDS NEAR SUNSET SATURDAY AS THE SURFACE TROUGH EXITS TO THE EAST. PERHAPS SOME LINGERING EVENING SHOWERS IN THE SOUTHEAST... THEN DRY OVERNIGHT. THE NEAR SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT LOOKS LIGHT ENOUGH TO TO ALLOW FOR FOG AND LOW STRATUS FORMATION AS SUNRISE SUNDAY APPROACHES GIVEN THE DRYING ALOFT. CONVECTION NOT IMPOSSIBLE DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON SUNDAY... BUT CHANCES LOW ENOUGH TO OMIT WORDING FROM THE TEXT FORECASTS. AFTERNOON HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE LOW TO MID 90S. LOW STRATUS AND FOG EXPECTED TO AGAIN DEVELOP AFTER MIDNIGHT AND PERSIST PAST SUNRISE. LOW TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S. && .LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/... AS OF 215 PM... HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT DOMINATES THE SOUTHEAST MONDAY WITH WEAK SURFACE FLOW. ANY CONVECTION LOOKS ISOLATED AND LATE AFTERNOON. WILL CONTINUE THE LESS THAN TEN PERCENT RAIN CHANCES FOR MONDAY. WEAK SOUTHWEST FLOW TUESDAY WILL MOISTEN THE AIR MASS WITH A SURFACE TROUGH FORECAST TO SPLIT CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA. HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT STILL FORECAST TO DOMINATE THE SOUTHEAST SO AFTERNOON RAIN CHANCES PERHAPS NO HIGHER THAN ONE IN THREE. LITTLE MODEL CONSENSUS BEYOND TUESDAY ON NEAR SURFACE FEATURES. ALOFT... HIGH PRESSURE SLIDES WEST AS A MEAN LONG WAVE TROUGH ESTABLISHES ITSELF IN THE WESTERN ATLANTIC. THUS AFTER A WARM START... A WEAK COOLING TREND RETURNING AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES TO NEAR OR A TOUCH BELOW NORMAL. RAIN CHANCES MAINLY AFTERNOONS AND ONE IN THREE. MID 90S COMMON MONDAY AND TUESDAY AFTERNOONS... LOW TO MID 90S WEDNESDAY... AND UPPER 80S TO LOWER 90S THURSDAY. LOW TEMPERATURES MOSTLY 68 TO 73. && .AVIATION /18Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... AS OF 115 PM THURSDAY... 24-HR TAF PERIOD: VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH ~21Z...HOWEVER...SCATTERED TO WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP BY LATE AFTERNOON...AND SUB-VFR CONDITIONS ASSOC/W CONVECTION WILL BE POSSIBLE AT ALL TAF SITES BETWEEN 21Z THIS AFTERNOON AND ~06Z TONIGHT. EXPECT IFR/LIFR CONDITIONS IN FOG/STRATUS TO DEVELOP AT ALL TAF SITES AFTER 06Z TONIGHT...WITH CONDITIONS IMPROVING BACK TO VFR BETWEEN 12-17Z FRI...SIMILAR TO TODAY. LOOKING AHEAD: SUB-VFR CONDITIONS ASSOC/W WIDESPREAD SHOWERS/STORMS ARE EXPECTED MID FRIDAY AFTERNOON INTO THE DAY SATURDAY IN ASSOC/W A SHORT WAVE TROUGH MOVING SLOWLY INTO THE CAROLINAS/MID-ATLANTIC FROM THE NORTHWEST. ADDITIONALLY...IFR/LIFR FOG AND/OR STRATUS WILL BE POSSIBLE ON BOTH SATURDAY/SUNDAY MORNINGS. EXPECT LESS OF A CHANCE FOR SHOWERS/STORMS ON SUN/MON AS AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE BUILDS TOWARD THE AREA FROM THE WEST...HOWEVER...THE RIDGE IS EXPECTED TO WEAKEN BY TUE...WITH A RETURN TO NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT AND INCREASED CHANCES FOR SHOWERS/STORMS BY TUESDAY/WEDNESDAY. -VINCENT && .RAH WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
