AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON NC
753 PM EDT SAT SEP 8 2012
.SYNOPSIS...
TROPICAL STORM LESLIE WELL OFFSHORE OF THE COASTAL CAROLINAS
WILL PRODUCE LARGER THAN NORMAL SURF CONDITIONS AND OCCASIONALLY
STRONG RIP CURRENTS THROUGH THE WEEKEND. AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT
WILL BRING A CHANCE OF STRONG THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND
TONIGHT...FOLLOWED BY EARLY FALL-LIKE TEMPERATURES FROM SUNDAY
INTO MUCH OF NEXT WEEK.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 3:00 PM SATURDAY...ALTHOUGH THERE ARE SOME UNCERTAINTIES
REGARDING TIMING ISSUES THE PERIOD IS SHAPING UP TO BE QUITE
ACTIVE. SEA BREEZE ACTIVITY YIELDING SOME BRIEF BUT HEAVY RAINFALL
IN THE VERY NEAR TERM AND WILL BE QUITE ISOLATED IN THE ABSENCE OF
MID LEVEL FORCING. WEAK HEIGHT FALLS WILL OVERSPREAD THE AREA FROM
THE WEST HOWEVER LATER THIS AFTERNOON. UPSTREAM CONVECTION WILL
CONTINUE TO INCREASE IN COVERAGE AND INTENSITY. THE 15Z RUN OF THE
HRRR INITIALIZED RESPECTABLY AND BRINGS THIS ACTIVITY INTO WESTERN
ZONES BY 21 OR 22Z. WIND SHEAR VALUES NOT VERY SUPPORTIVE OF
ORGANIZED SEVERE WEATHER BUT SOME LINGERING DRY MID LEVEL AIR
COULD STILL LEAD TO SOME DOWN-BURSTS IN THE TALLER UPDRAFTS.
BEYOND THIS ROUND OF STORMS IS WHEN THE UNCERTAINTY GROWS. THERE
MAY BE A DOWNWARD TREND IN STORM COVERAGE AND INTENSITY WITH THE
LOSS OF HEATING AND THE CORRESPONDING WANE IN SBCAPE. THE APPROACH
OF THE COLD FRONT LATER TONIGHT WILL BRING A PUSH OF LOW LEVEL
FORCING ALONG WITH THE CONTINUED MID LEVEL ASCENT. THIS ROUND OF
STORMS WILL MOVE THROUGH BETWEEN 08Z AND 12Z AND BE MORE ELEVATED
IN NATURE. THEY WILL STILL REPRESENT A WIND DAMAGE THREAT THOUGH
AS A STRONGER WIND FIELD THROUGH THE COLUMN OFFSETS THE LOWER
STABILITY.
&&
.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 3:00 PM SATURDAY...MODEL CONSENSUS HAS STRONG COLD FRONT
JUST OFFSHORE BY DAYBREAK ON SUNDAY MORNING. BIG QUESTION REMAINS
AS TO HOW EARLY PRECIPITATION WILL END. LATEST RUNS SUGGEST A
SHORT WAVE RIDING ALONG THE LEADING EDGE OF A DEEP UPPER TROUGH
WILL INDUCE A FRONTAL WAVE ALONG THE FRONT JUST OFFSHORE THE
CAROLINAS...SLOWING THE FRONT'S PROGRESS AND ALLOWING
PRECIPITATION TO LINGER ALONG THE COAST. WILL START OFF THE PERIOD
WITH CHANCE POPS CONCENTRATED OVER THE COASTAL COUNTIES...WITH
CHANCES OF PRECIPITATION TAPERING OFF FROM NW TO SE DURING THE
DAYLIGHT HOURS.
SUNDAY NIGHT AND ALL OF MONDAY WILL FEATURE EARLY FALL-LIKE
WEATHER AS A COOL AND DRY CANADIAN AIRMASS BUILDS IN. EXPECT
WIDESPREAD MINIMUM TEMPERATURE READINGS IN THE 50S SUNDAY AND
MONDAY NIGHTS...WITH MONDAY NIGHT BEING THE COOLEST. HIGHS WILL BE
MAINLY IN THE LOWER 80S BOTH DAYS.
&&
.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 3:00 PM SATURDAY...SURFACE AND MID LEVEL RIDGING WILL REMAIN
IN CONTROL FOR MUCH OF THE PERIOD. MID LEVEL RIDGE OVER THE MS
VALLEY TUE WILL DRIFT EAST THROUGH THE PERIOD BEFORE MOVING
OFFSHORE FRI AS IT STARTS TO WEAKEN. MEANWHILE...AT THE SURFACE
HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED OVER THE NORTHEAST/MID ATLANTIC TUE SHIFTS
SOUTHEAST AND BECOMES ELONGATED THROUGH THE PERIOD. MEDIUM RANGE
GUIDANCE IS SHOWING SIGNS OF A WEAK COASTAL TROUGH DEVELOPING FRI
OR FRI NIGHT. THIS FEATURE MAY OR MAY NOT BE ACCOMPANIED BY SOME
ISOLATED SHOWERS...BUT GIVEN THE AMOUNT OF DRY AIR AND THE
TENDENCY FOR GUIDANCE TO UNDERESTIMATE THE STRENGTHS OF MID LEVEL
RIDGES DO NOT THE NEED TO INTRODUCE A SILENT POP JUST YET.
TEMPERATURES START OUT BELOW CLIMO...WITH HIGHS IN THE LOWER 80S
AND LOWS IN THE UPPER 50S. WEAK RETURN FLOW DEVELOPING LATE IN THE
PERIOD WILL BRING A GRADUAL INCREASE IN LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND
TEMPERATURES...WITH BOTH HIGHS AND LOWS AROUND CLIMO BY THE END OF
THE PERIOD.
&&
.AVIATION /00Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 00Z...ANTICIPATE MVFR/POSSIBLE BRIEF IFR INLAND/ DUE TO
SHRA/TSRA AND FOG/CIGS THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT AND MORNING HOURS. BY
SUNDAY AFTERNOON...EXPECT VFR TO PREVAIL.
CURRENT RADAR DEPICTS A LINE OF SHRA/TSRA MOVING ACROSS THE AREA
AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT...THUS ANTICIPATE THIS
ACTIVITY TO CONTINUE INTO THE MORNING HOURS. CONVECTION WILL
GRADUALLY TAPER OFF INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS WITH STEADY AREAS OF
RAIN AND FOG/CIGS. WITH ANY ACTIVITY TONIGHT...EXPECT WIND GUSTS
OF UP TO 30 KTS POSSIBLE IN STRONGER STORMS...AND REDUCED
VISIBILITIES WITH HEAVIER DOWNPOURS. ALTHOUGH SHOULD MENTION
SYNOPTIC WINDS ALONG THE COAST ARE GUSTING UP TO 25-30 KTS...NOT
ASSOCIATED WITH ANY CONVECTION ATTM. BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON...CONDITIONS
WILL IMPROVE TO VFR AS THE FROPA PUSHES THROUGH THE AREA
PROPAGATING FROM WEST TO EAST. WINDS WILL BECOME NORTH WITH
SUSTAINED WINDS AOB 10 KTS...WITH LINGERING FEW/SCT CLOUDS.
EXTENDED OUTLOOK...BECOMING VFR LATE SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.
&&
.MARINE...
NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 3:00 PM SATURDAY...SPECTRAL PLOT OF WAVE ENERGY STILL SHOWS
DOMINANT SWELL OF ABOUT 13 SECONDS AT 41013 DESPITE THE GUSTY
WINDS. WAVE HEIGHTS HAVE NOT INCREASED IN THE PAST SEVERAL
HOURS...CAPPED AT ABOUT 5 FT AT THE SAME LOCATION. SWAN
INITIALIZED WITH 7FT AND SO WAS NOT USED IN FAVOR OF A BLEND OF
CONTINUITY AND WNA GUIDANCE. THIS YIELDS MORE OR LESS A
CONTINUATION OF THE 4 TO 5 FT SEAS FORECAST FOR MOST ZONES AS A
STRONG COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE NW.
SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 3:00 PM SATURDAY...A NORTH TO NORTHEASTERLY WIND WILL
OVERSPREAD THE WATERS EARLY IN THE PERIOD IN THE WAKE OF A STRONG
COLD FRONT. WINDS WILL BE MAINLY IN THE 10 TO 15 KT
RANGE...ALTHOUGH A COLD SURGE LATE SUNDAY NIGHT WILL TEMPORARILY
KICK THAT UP INTO THE 15 TO 20 KT RANGE. OFFSHORE FLOW WILL KEEP
HIGHEST SEAS OVER THE OUTER FRINGES OF OUR WATERS WHERE...COMBINED
WITH SWELL WAVE ENERGY FROM DISTANT TROPICAL SYSTEMS...WE COULD
SEE FREQUENT 5 FOOTERS.
LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 3:00 PM SATURDAY...SURFACE HIGH TO THE NORTHWEST WILL ENSURE
NORTH TO NORTHEAST FLOW THROUGH THE PERIOD. SPEEDS WILL BE HIGHEST
EARLY IN THE PERIOD...SOLID 15 KT. THE RIDGE AXIS BECOMES
ELONGATED AND SHIFTS SOUTHEAST DURING THE PERIOD. THIS WILL RESULT
IN A REDUCTION OF THE SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT AND WINDS AROUND
10 KT BY THU. SEAS 3 TO 5 FT AT THE START OF THE PERIOD WILL
GRADUALLY DECREASE TO 2 TO 4 FT ON THU.
