Isolated thunderstorms developed across the sandhills and southern coastal plain as a weak upper level disturbance combined with a moderately unstable air mass (which resulted from strong insolation and dewpoints in the mid/upper 60s to lower 70s). These storms resulted in multiple trees being blown down, along with a few reports of sub-severe hail.

NWS Raleigh, NC wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 22, 1:30 PM EST, 2 hours 32 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC 230 PM EDT WED JUN 22 2011 .SYNOPSIS... RIDGING ALOFT WILL RESULT IN ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES THROUGH THURSDAY. PRECIPITATION CHANCES ARE EXPECTED TO INCREASE FRIDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND AS THE RIDGE SHIFTS OFFSHORE AND A SLOW MOVING TROUGH APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/... AS OF 230 PM WEDNESDAY... SFC ANALYSIS THIS AFTERNOON SHOWED 997 MB LOW PRESSURE OVER MN/WI... WITH A COLD FRONT EXTENDING SOUTH/SW THROUGH THE CENTRAL MS RIVER VALLEY INTO THE LOWER MIDWEST. A WARM FRONT EXTENDED EAST THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES INTO UPSTATE NY. A WEAK LEE TROUGH WAS NOTED OVER THE MID-ATLANTIC AND CAROLINAS. ALOFT...LATEST WV IMAGERY AND RUC DATA SHOWED AN H5 RIDGE CENTERED OVER FL...WITH A RIDGE AXIS EXTENDING NORTH ALONG THE EAST COAST AND INCREASINGLY SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT OVER THE CAROLINAS/VA. AN MCV WAS NOTED IN VICINITY OF THE I-77 CORRIDOR AS OF 18Z...SPAWNED BY CONVECTION OVER LA/MS YESTERDAY EVENING. THROUGH TONIGHT: ALTHOUGH A WEAK LEE TROUGH WAS NOTED IN SURFACE ANALYSIS...LOW LEVEL FLOW (925-850 MB) IS UNIFORM FROM THE SOUTHWEST ACROSS CENTRAL NC TODAY...AND ANY LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE ASSOC/W THE LEE TROUGH WILL REMAIN VERY WEAK AND SHALLOW. ADDITIONAL LOW LEVEL FORCING ASSOC/W THE SEABREEZE WILL BE POSSIBLE IN THE SE COASTAL PLAIN THIS AFTERNOON GIVEN STRONG HEATING INLAND. ALOFT...THE RUC CONTINUES TO SHOW DPVA ASSOC/W THE AFOREMENTIONED MCV FEATURE MOVING EAST/ENE THROUGH CENTRAL NC BETWEEN 18Z THIS AFTERNOON AND 00Z THIS EVENING VIA INCREASINGLY WESTERLY/WSW FLOW ALOFT AS THE MID-LEVEL RIDGE MOVES OFFSHORE. W/REGARD TO THERMODYNAMICS...GIVEN STRONG INSOLATION WITH MAX TEMPS IN THE UPPER 90S AND DEWPOINTS IN THE MID/UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S...EXPECT MLCAPE VALUES RANGING FROM 1500-3000 J/KG ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA...HIGHEST IN THE SOUTH/SW WHERE CLOUD COVER WAS MINIMAL THIS MORNING. WITH THE ABOVE IN MIND...ONE WOULD EXPECT CONVECTION TO DEVELOP IN ASSOC/W THE MCV CROSSING THE AREA FROM WEST-EAST DURING PEAK HEATING THIS AFTERNOON...ALTHOUGH THIS IS CONTINGENT ON THE ACCURACY OF THE SPC MESOANALYSIS/RUC PORTRAYAL OF SAID FEATURE. CURIOUSLY...THE 12Z HIGH-RES WRF/NMM MODELS DEVELOP LITTLE IN THE WAY OF CONVECTION ACROSS CENTRAL NC THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH TONIGHT...WITH MOST CONVECTION OCCURRING JUST OUTSIDE OF OR ON THE PERIPHERY OF CENTRAL NC. ALTHOUGH THE HIGH-RES WRF/NMM MODELS MAY BE SUPPRESSING CONVECTION OVER CENTRAL NC FOR A REASON...THIS STILL SEEMS DIFFICULT TO BELIEVE GIVEN THE DEGREE OF DESTABILIZATION ACROSS THE AREA...AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE POISED TO CROSS THE AREA...AND OTHERWISE SIMILAR CONDITIONS TO YESTERDAY. GIVEN THE DIFFICULT PATTERN WE'VE BEEN IN THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS AND A FAIR AMOUNT OF UNCERTAINTY ASSOC/W CONVECTIVE INITIATION/COVERAGE...WILL INDICATE CHANCE POPS (30%) ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA THROUGH TONIGHT... ALTHOUGH COVERAGE COULD EASILY EXCEED 30% IN PORTIONS OF THE AREA IN ASSOC/W OUTFLOW INTERACTIONS...SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY EVENING. EXPECT LOWS IN THE 70-75F RANGE THU MORNING OWING TO A VERY WARM AIRMASS AND EXPECTED CLOUD COVER LATE TONIGHT AS WEAK HEIGHT FALLS COMMENCE FROM THE WEST. SEVERE THREAT: PRIMARY THREATS WITH ANY DEEP CONVECTION TODAY WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS AND QUARTER TO GOLFBALL SIZE HAIL...SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY. ALTHOUGH EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR VALUES WILL PROBABLY BE IN THE 20-25 KT RANGE THIS AFTERNOON DUE TO DEEP BOUNDARY LAYER MIXING...MODEST MID-LEVEL FLOW (AS HIGH AS 35-40 KT) IS PROGGED ACROSS THE AREA DURING PEAK HEATING. THIS SUGGESTS THAT MULTICELL ORGANIZATION WOULD BE POSSIBLE WITH ANY CONVECTION THAT DEVELOPS THIS AFTERNOON. EVEN IF BULK SHEAR VALUES ARE INSUFFICIENT...STRONG COLD POOLS WOULD BE EXPECTED TODAY IN ASSOC/W VERY STEEP LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES/STRONG INSOLATION...AND THAT IN OF ITSELF COULD LEAD TO MULTICELL ORGANIZATION. LIKE PREVIOUS DAYS...THE THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER COULD BE FAIRLY WIDESPREAD DUE TO EXTENSIVE COLD POOL INTERACTIONS. THE THREAT APPEARS TO BE GREATEST BETWEEN 4 PM THIS AFTERNOON AND MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. THURSDAY: THE VERTICALLY STACKED LOW CURRENTLY CENTERED IN FAR SOUTHEAST MINNESOTA WILL MOVE NORTHEAST AND BECOME CENTERED OVER THE NORTHERN GREAT LAKES ON THU...WITH H5 TROUGHING/CYCLONIC FLOW ALOFT EXTENDING SOUTH THROUGH THE OH/TN VALLEYS INTO PORTIONS OF THE DEEP SOUTH. THE MID/UPPER LEVEL RIDGE CURRENTLY CENTERED ALONG THE EAST COAST WILL SHIFT FURTHER OFFSHORE...AND CENTRAL NC IS EXPECTED TO SEE 30-40 METER 12-HR H5 HEIGHT FALLS DURING THE DAY WITH STRENGTHENING SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT. ALTHOUGH BETTER SYNOPTIC FORCING WILL BE PRESENT...INCREASED CLOUD COVER MAY INHIBIT INSOLATION AND DESTABILIZATION...PERHAPS LIMITING MLCAPE VALUES TO 1500 J/KG OR LESS...ALTHOUGH THIS WILL BE HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON THE DEGREE OF CLOUD COVER. DESPITE LESS INSTABILITY THAN IN PREVIOUS DAYS...GIVEN THE STRONGER BACKGROUND FORCING...EXPECT SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE THROUGHOUT THE DAY ACROSS ALL OF CENTRAL NC...ALTHOUGH THE TIMING/LOCATION/COVERAGE REMAINS QUITE UNCERTAIN AND WILL LIKELY BE DEPENDENT ON A VARIETY OF FACTORS (BROAD SYNOPTIC FORCING...MINOR SHORTWAVES/MCV'S...ONGOING CONVECTION AND OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES ETC.) WITH ALL OF THE ABOVE IN MIND...WILL FCST PRECIP CHANCES OF 50% FOR THE ENTIRE AREA IN DEFERENCE TO THE RELATIVELY GOOD SYNOPTIC FORCING. HIGH TEMPS WILL BE PRIMARILY DEPENDENT ON THE DEGREE OF CLOUD COVER AND THE TIMING/COVERAGE OF CONVECTION. IN THE ABSENCE OF CONVECTION...HIGHS IN THE LOWER 90S LOOK OBTAINABLE GIVEN THE PROGGED THICKNESSES... ALTHOUGH IF CLOUD COVER IS SUFFICIENTLY THICK SOME LOCATIONS MAY NOT GET OUT OF THE UPPER 80S. W/REGARD TO SEVERE WX...MID-LEVEL FLOW IS PROGGED TO STRENGTHEN TO 40-50 KT AS THE H5 RIDGE SHIFTS FURTHER OFFSHORE AND THE HEIGHT GRADIENT TIGHTENS IN ASSOC/W THE VERTICALLY STACKED LOW ADVANCING INTO THE GREAT LAKES. AS A RESULT...EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR VALUES WOULD BE SUFFICIENT FOR MULTICELLULAR ORGANIZATION...AND PERHAPS SUPERCELLULAR. -VINCENT && .SHORT TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/... AS OF 145 PM WEDNESDAY.... MODELS CONTINUE TO BE IN GENERAL AGREEMENT IN THE APPROACH OF A GRADUALLY WEAKENING UPPER TROUGH. H5 HEIGHTS SHOULD GRADUALLY LOWER TO AROUND 5780 TO 5800M BY FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY. THIS MID/UPPER LEVEL PATTERN FAVORS GENERAL STORMINESS (ACTIVE CONVECTIVE PERIOD) FOR THE REGION. UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE TROUGH ALOFT... A BROAD CYCLONIC FLOW WILL PERSIST FROM THE WSW ACROSS NC. WITH DAILY SURFACE HEATING THE MLCAPE VALUES SHOULD EASILY ATTAIN 2000 J/KG BY MID AFTERNOON. THIS WILL BE PLENTY OF FUEL FOR SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS IN THE MID TO LATE AFTERNOON... LASTING WELL INTO THE NIGHT... WITH A MINIMUM OF ACTIVITY EXPECTED DURING THE MORNING HOURS. DUE TO THE INCREASED CLOUDINESS AND CONVECTION DAILY FRIDAY AND SATURDAY HIGHS ARE EXPECTED TO RANGE AROUND 88-95 (A FEW DEGREES COOLER THAN IN RECENT DAYS). CONVERSELY... LOWS AT NIGHT WILL BE WARMER WITH THE CLOUDS AND HIGHER DEW POINTS (MOSTLY 70-75). && .LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... AS OF 157 PM WEDNESDAY... THE UPPER TROUGH IS FORECAST TO GRADUALLY LIFT OUT OF THE REGION BY MONDAY AND TUESDAY AS STRONG UPPER RIDGING BUILDS FROM THE SOUTHERN ROCKIES EASTWARD OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AND MID-MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. HOWEVER... THIS SHOULD CONTINUE TO BE A VERY ACTIVE CONVECTIVE PATTERN FOR OUR REGION AS A WEAK SURFACE BOUNDARY WILL BE WAVERING OVER THE MID-ATLANTIC STATES. ANY DISTURBANCES IN THE INCREASINGLY DIFFLUENT FLOW ALOFT WILL AID IN TRIGGERING CONVECTION... MAINLY DURING AND AFTER PEAK AFTERNOON HEATING. WE WILL CARRY GOOD CHANCE POP FOR SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY (45-50 PERCENT)... MAINLY FOR 18Z-04Z DAILY. A MINIMUM IN CONVECTION SHOULD OCCUR BETWEEN 08Z-17Z OR SO DAILY. LOWS WILL BE WARM WITH 70-75. HIGHS SHOULD HOLD IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S NW... AND LOWER 90S OVER THE SANDHILLS DAILY. OVERALL... RAINFALL SHOULD AVERAGE ABOVE NORMAL. THIS IS A BIG CHANGE FROM THE RECENT PATTERN. && .AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... AS OF 200 PM WEDNESDAY... 24-HR TAF PERIOD: VFR CONDITIONS ARE GENERALLY EXPECTED ACROSS ALL OF CENTRAL NC THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD...EXCEPT IN ASSOC/W ISOLD TO SCT THUNDERSTORMS BETWEEN ~21Z THIS AFTERNOON AND 06Z TONIGHT. DUE TO CONSIDERABLE UNCERTAINTY IN THE TIMING/LOCATION OF CONVECTION...WILL ONLY INCLUDE A LENGTHY 'SCT050CB' GROUP BETWEEN 21-04Z WHEN CONVECTION APPEARS TO BE MOST LIKELY. WINDS WILL BE SOUTHWEST AT 10-15 KT MOST LOCATIONS THIS AFTERNOON...WITH OCCASIONAL GUSTS TO 20 KT. VARIABLE SFC WIND GUSTS AOA 50 KT WILL BE POSSIBLE IN ASSOC/W ANY THUNDERSTORMS. WINDS WILL WEAKEN TO ~5 KT OVERNIGHT...THEN INCREASE TO 10-15 KT WITH GUSTS UP TO 20 KT BY 15-18Z THU. LOOKING AHEAD: ISOLD TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED AGAIN THU AFT/EVE... WITH ANY SUB-VFR CONDITIONS ASSOCIATED PRIMARILY WITH CONVECTION. CHANCES FOR SHOWERS/STORMS WILL FURTHER INCREASE FRIDAY...AND SUB-VFR CONDITIONS ASSOC/W CONVECTION (SOME SEVERE) WILL BE POSSIBLE AT ALL TERMINALS.
