The episode as NWS AKQ wrote it up.
Scattered severe thunderstorms well in advance of a cold front produced damaging winds and large hail across portions of northeast North Carolina.
The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Wakefield, VA wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jul 1, 12:01 AM EST, 9 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WAKEFIELD VA
101 AM EDT SUN JUL 1 2012
.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES THROUGH EARLY
NEXT WEEK MAINTAINING HOT TEMPERATURES. AN ACTIVE NORTHWEST FLOW
PATTERN ALOFT ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY AND MID ATLANTIC WILL BRING
THE POSSIBILITY OF LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING THUNDERSTORMS.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/...
STORMS CONTINUE TO MOVE SOUTHEAST ACROSS SOUTHEAST VIRGINIA AND
NORTH CAROLINA EARLY THIS MORNING. VILS PULSING AOA 70...SO EXPECT
GUSTY WINDS AND DECENT SIZE HAIL WITH THESE OVER NEXT HOUR OR SO.
WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR CELLS APPROACHING DAN ATTM AS THEY ARE
EXPECTED TO MOVE S-SE ALONG BOUNDARY FROM CURRENT STORMS.
ANTHR BUSY NIGHT. NUMEROUS PULSE SEVERE STORMS EVOLVED INTO
SUPERCELLS AND THESE STORMS CONTINUE TO TRACK SE ACROSS SOUTHERN
VA ATTM. NUMEROUS WIND/HAIL REPORTS WITH SEVERAL FUNNEL CLOUD AND
WALL CLOUD SIGHTENS. AS OF THIS WRITING...NO CONFIRMED TORNADOES.
SEE LSRAKQ FOR DETAILS.
KEPT CHC POPS IN FORECAST NEXT ROUND OF STORMS NEAR DANVILLE
PROGGED TO MOVE EAST ALONG OUTFLOW BOUNDARY. ACTIVITY LOOKS TO
DIMINISH LATE TONIGHT. ADJUSTED TEMPS DOWN AGAIN LIKE LAST NIGHT
AS TSTRMS HAVE COOLED READINGS DOWN INTO LWR 70S.
&&
.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
THE UPPER RIDGE BECOMES STEADILY MORE SUPPRESSED SOUTHWEST OF THE
REGION SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY AS IT AMPLIFIES ACROSS THE PLAINS AND
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND WEAKENS ON THE NORTHEAST PERIPHERY DUE TO
CONVECTIVE COMPLEXES.
SUNDAY...HEAT SHOULD RETURN AFTER AN UNEXPECTED LULL TODAY AS THE
LOW LEVEL FLOW BECOMES MORE WESTERLY. DEWPOINTS SHOULD STILL MIX
DOWN INTO THE 60S DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS...SO EXCESSIVE HEAT IS
NOT EXPECTED. A PORTION OF THE AREA MAY NEED A HEAT ADVISORY...BUT
THERE IS ENOUGH UNCERTAINTY AS TO THE EXTENT SO A HEADLINE WILL NOT
BE ISSUED AT THIS POINT. THE FLOW MAY BE WEAK ENOUGH THAT THE
SEABREEZE COULD DOMINATE ALONG THE COAST DURING THE AFTERNOON AND
THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO KEEP COASTAL LOCATIONS BELOW HEAT ADVISORY
CRITERIA. HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO REACH THE MID 90S TO
AROUND 100...WITH HEAT INDICES OF 100 TO 105. AGAIN...THERE IS A
MINIMAL CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FROM LATE EVENING
THROUGH THE EARLY OVERNIGHT HOURS. IF THUNDERSTORMS DO DEVELOP THEY
WOULD BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING DAMAGING WIND GUSTS.
HEIGHTS AND THICKNESSES FALL SLIGHTLY MONDAY AND TUESDAY.
THEREFORE...HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO RANGE FROM THE LOW 90S
NE...TO UPPER 90S SW. LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING CONVECTION WILL
REMAIN POSSIBLE. OVERNIGHT/MORNING LOW TEMPERATURES SHOULD BE IN THE
70S.
&&
.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
LOOKS LIKE A TYPICAL SUMMERTIME PATTERN FOR THE REGION FROM THE JULY
4TH HOLIDAY THROUGH THE START OF NEXT WEEKEND. A BAGGY UPPER TROUGH
WILL RESIDE OVER THE REGION THRU THURSDAY WITH MAINLY AFTN/EVE TSTM
CHANCES. MODEL GUIDANCE HINTS AT AN UPPER RIDGE BUILDING EASTWARD
FROM THE OHIO VALLEY BY THE END OF THE WEEK. SUBSIDENCE ALOFT
ASSOCIATED WITH THE BUILDING RIDGE MAY LIMIT CONVECTIVE COVERAGE
FRIDAY AND SATURDAY...SO WILL DOWNPLAY TSTM CHANCES THEN. MAX TEMPS
WILL BE IN THE LOW/MID 90S THRU THE PERIOD WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS
BETWEEN 70-75 DEGREES.
&&
.AVIATION /06Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
SKIES ARE MOSTLY CLR EARLY THIS AFTN ACROSS THE REGION WITH SW-W
WNDS GENERALLY LESS THAN 10 KT. A SEABREEZE ALONG THE COAST (ORF/ECG)
WILL RESULT IN NE-SE WNDS THRU THE AFTN BEFORE SHIFTING TO S-SW
LATE. THERE IS A CHANCE FOR CONVECTION TO AGAIN DEVELOP DURING THE
LATE AFTN/EVENING PERIOD...HOWEVER CONFIDENCE IS TOO LOW TO
MENTION MORE THAN CB IN THE TAFS. AS WITH YESTERDAY...THE MAIN
THREAT WITH ANY CONVECTION WILL BE STRONG WINDS.
OUTLOOK...PERSISTENT HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE MID
ATL STATES RESULTING IN GENERALLY LIGHT WINDS AND VFR CONDITIONS.
A COLD FRONT TO THE NORTH...HOT AND HUMID DAYTIME CONDITIONS AND
AN LEE SIDE TROUGH WILL CONTINUE TO PROVIDE SLIGHT CHANCE TO
CHANCE THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE EARLY PART OF THE WEEK.
&&
.MARINE...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO DOMINATE THE WX PATTERN THROUGH MUCH
OF THE HOLIDAY WEEK. THIS WILL RESULT IN BENIGN BOATING CONDITIONS
WITH LIGHT SFC WINDS AND SEAS 3 FT OR LESS...WITH WAVES 1 TO 2 FT ON
THE CHES BAY.
